Djesersekhmet steps forward and deliberately lowers her staff with a noticeable thud, as a not-so-subtle message to the thugs that she stands by Silas. She lifts her chin in a meaningful fashion, staring them down though she is likely shorter than they are.

Silas grinned as the Queen stood behind him. "Oh." He said towards the leader. "Well then yes, I do in fact have a problem. You see I don't like bullies, and you..." He paused "You are a bully. You owe that man an apology."

Silas took a deep breath. "And trust me unless you work for a Hutt you don't want to test me."

"Why don't you come here and convince me," the zabrak said.

Djesersekhmet waved her hand. "You are convinced," she said.

"Okay, okay, okay," the Zabrak said and held up his hands defensively. "I'm not testing you." He barked a quick order and he and his two cronies left the establishment without paying for their drinks.

"Are you harmed?" Djesersekhmet asked the Aqualish.

As the queen looked for the aqualish, she noted that he no longer was there. He had most likely picked himself up and wandered off into the night.

"Alien peasants are always so grateful," the Queen muttered. "Well, shall we continue on to another cantina?"

Silas slid his pistol back into it's holster as he answered the Queen. "I suppose unless we have a better idea."

"Then let us set out," Djesersekhmet said.

Several hours later, without any additional success, darkness had fallen over Zarra and the heroes found themselves outside yet another cantina, this one called Queen’s Gambit.

Silas looked up at the name and then at Djesersekhmet. With a wry smile he motioned for her to enter. "After you."

"Well, I hope I need not make any gambit here," Djesersekhmet commented as they stepped inside. She hoped, however, that this place would be less seedy than some of the others and closer to the standard of luxury she was used to.

But the queen was disappointed again. This cantina looked much like the others and nowhere near what she had been used to growing up. But she couldn't see any Neimoidians either. As they looked around the place, it seemed like there was only off worlders in this place.

"What do you want," the human bartender asked them as they approached the bar.

"A glass of metjul wine for myself and my companions--if such a thing can be found on this backwater--and some information pertaining to a Hutt," Djesersekhmet said.
