[Hermes, massive Force energy reaction from the planet after entering the atmosphere. All wildlife is in a heightened state of alert. You may be a possible designated target.]

"Understood, breaking through the atmosphere."

I complete my planet entry and begin cruising the sky. I activate my scanner to do scans for a good landing spot. As well as to get a gauge of the technology level of the native civilization.

[Scans show a city, the Dark Side is concentrated there. The technology level is interplanetary to interstellar.]

"I'll stealth land in a secluded spot outside the city."

Then I hear an alert.

[Bat-like flying creatures are swarming behind the fighter. They are starting to chase the fighter.]

I look back and see a black mass of wings. Too many to shoot down and I don't think scaring them off will work. This isn't normal behavior. I can already tell from experience these creatures are not supposed to be out in the light so readily to chase a spacecraft.

In situations like these, chemical weapons work best. I got gas missiles filled with nervous system devouring toxins. Can't be threat without a brain or nervous system to control the body.

I fire off only one missile, as the cloud will be huge with only one. The missile is fired forward before veering off to the side and going behind me. It explodes in front of the swarm and all the bat-like creatures are exposed. I see the swarm dying off rapidly and falling to the dry ground. The gas is designed to dissipate after 2 minutes, so I'm not worried about contamination of the region. I don't want to poison an entire region after all.

As I approach airspace visible from the city, I activate dimension-phasing cloaking technology. I halfway phase out of the main dimension to attain invisibility, and semi-intangibility. As I'm not all the way phased out, some things can still affect my fighter.

I approach without issue and land in a nearby mountain range.

I exit my ship, which puts me all the way on the main dimension. Now I am exposed, but that's fine. I just didn't want to deal with any air traffic control.

I begin my walk to the city, which is quickly interrupted by wildlife. Dog-like creatures with spines, horns, and some bone plates. They're numerous, and obviously want to rip me to shreds. I even spot multiple alphas.

I wonder aloud, "Now why are all of you working together to kill me? When you should be fighting for territory right now."

[It is most likely the Force Hermes. The planet has exhibited low-level reactionary intelligence. Also capable through the high Force energy density in it's core. We're not welcome.]

I scoff, "Not the first time a living planet doesn't like me. I have a time-tested solution for that."

[I am aware Hermes. Extreme violence would be the best course of action]

"Affirmative.", I take out two multi-tools fitted with full-auto scatter blasters and super plasma cannons.

I fire without a second thought and start eliminating these creatures. The dogs attack in frenzy but never gain ground with how much firepower I'm throwing at them.

After 20 seconds, I stop firing and the area quiets. I scan and find no more of those dog creatures around. I put away my two multi-tools.

"A brutal display.", I hear.

I turn around to see a red skinned alien wearing black and gold robes.

[Force signature detected, alignment is -60, Dark Sider. Scanner being adjusted to bypass Force energy interference. The same ability will not evade our scans again.]

"I assume you are a native of this planet?", I ask.

The alien narrows his yellow eyes, "I am a native, a Sith."

"I am Hermes, a traveler.", I introduce.

The Sith walks closer, "Hermes, a traveler. Do tell, where have you been? And what brings you to my home?"

"I have been to many planets, dead and alive. I explore and document species of life. I'm here to catalogue, as this planet has crossed my path.", I say.

The Sith laughs, "This planet is called Korriban. You wish to catalogue the life of this world and explore it? Well, that would make you braver than most Sith. I am Darth Bich, a member of the Dark Council. The planet doesn't welcome you, which is why I came to investigate. Who cares about that though? Do you wish to see the city? I assume that is why you're here?"

I nod, "It is why I am here. I prefer to view the biggest city of a civilized world first, before exploring nature. As such places are typically rich with data."

Darth Bich smiles, "Then please follow me Hermes."

I follow the Sith to a large mount. Looked like some sort of mutated creature. Four legs, thick hide, long tail with a spear tip at the end, a canine skull with tusk, thick dagger teeth, and a tongue with small needles on it. Big enough to seat 4 people of similar size to me. 

Darth Bich leaps up to casually sit on it's saddle, "Come on up Hermes."

I use my jetpack to mount the creature.

Darth Bich then beckons the creature to move with a bit of lightning from his hands.
