Greetings this is my posting to the FFML even though I have been
subscribed for several months.  There is not much here at the moment, bu
tI have a good Idea of how I am going to proceed with this.

Out near the edge of known space, a medium sized planet rotated about a
yellow sun; it's moons reflecting the sun's glow back towards the
night-side of the planet.  This planet, a desert world, was home for
crime lords, smugglers, vagabonds, and savage Desert nomads.  Yet it was
also home to simple people, farmers, traders and hermits.  Most of the
people however, are of no real importance, but upon this nondescript
world lay the shoulders upon which the hope of the galaxy would rest.
Also, the world was about to have visitors, who would start a chain of
events that would inflame all of known space.


 Above the planet, a chase had commenced.  In the lead was a corvette.
A small capital ship first designed Corellian Engineering Corporation
and a fairly common sight.  A knowledgeable observer would immediately
know that there was something special about the ship, not because of
it's outside appearance, but rather because of what was currently
chasing it.
 Behind the corvette and firing its forward turbo-laser and Ion cannons
was an Imperial class star destroyer.  This immense ship was a symbol of
the power of the Empire.  It's sure size dwarfed every other ship in
existence save the Super class Star destroyer, and using it run down a
Corellian corvette was a sure sign that the empire wanted that ship.
 As the two ships raced through the void, flashes of laser fire filled
the space between them. The blasts of the corvette were more accurate,
having a bigger target, but the small lasers of the corvette were
useless against the shielding of the Star destroyer.  Bolt after bolt of
green turbo-laser fire surround the smaller corvette, pounding its
shields. Then, as was inevitable, the shields on the corvette collapsed
and a green lance of energy struck the ship, resulting in an explosion
of ignited oxygen as the turbo-laser penetrated the hull.

 The corvette shook with the impact, causing guards running down the
main hallway to lurch against the wall.  The ship shook again from
another Turbo-laser blast, but the shaking of the ship was on no
consequence to two individuals who floated down the corridor.
 They appeared to be pillars of wood with a single eye-like lens located
at the top and two supports jutted out diagonally from the bottom.  On
the front of the two pillars was different symbol. One was blue and the
other red.
 "Hurray Azaka," said the one with the red symbol, "we must locate the
princess and see her to a lifepod."
