## Plot summary

After receiving intelligence on Gandle Ott that Moff Kentor Sarne was heading to Shintel, the *FarStar* headed there. Upon arrival, they found that the sole Imperial installation on the planet, Imperial Depot 4290-1, had been abandoned by Sarne, and the personnel were stranded. The base commander, Colonel Heget, strikes a deal with Captain Kaiya Adrimetrum to transport him to the shadowport *Tanquilla Beach* in exchange for navigational data.

However, an agent of Sarne's, Lieutenant Palme, manages to upload a special datacard into the *FarStar'*s computers. As the corvette attempts to jump to *Tanquilla Beach*, programming from the datacard causes the hypdrive to overload. Shortly after, the ship is attacked by the bounty hunter group Qulok's Fist. A short battle ensues, but Qulok's Fist are employed by Sarne to harass the *FarStar* only, and they withdraw. With no functioning hyperdrive, Lofryyhn jury-rigs the engines with parts from the X-wings onboard the *FarStar*, and the ship was limped to the *Beach*.

At the *Beach*, the *FarStar* crew enlists the help of Fia to fix their engines, and learns of the numerous trapdoors that Sarne had installed in the ship. After assisting the *Beach* to fight off an attack on the shadowport by one of Sarne's *Carrack*-class light cruisers, the *FarStar* departs for Pembric II to find a slicer capable of removing Sarne's little surprises.
