Enemy attack just before departure
North of the base's central square, Yan Tu was wearing a suit of armor made from the skin of a First Order python that he himself had defeated in the past. The marks on the armor showed that the battle two nights ago had been hard enough that even the heavy defense of his armor was not enough to withstand the heavy attacks of his enemies.
"I want everyone to form in an orderly fashion in a single line! Children and women first, men next, and old men last! If anyone dares to cut the line, push, or cause trouble and is discovered; they will be whipped at the first instant and left behind without the possibility of boarding any vehicles!" he shouted at the top of his lungs.
