I had spent days in the wilds of Yavin 4, exploring the unknown, expanding my knowledge. I had been so covered in cammo and dirt that the creatures no longer noticed me silently stalking their herds. My sword we covered with the blood of the conquered, and hung loose in it's scabbard, ready to draw.

As I was stalking a new found herd of kilk's, I spotted a giant temple that seemed to rise out of the mistsbefore me...I had heard legends of the Blue Leaf Temple, but had until this moment laid my eyes upon it. I knew from the rumors that the temple was inhabited by the Dark Queen, and I felt the urge to test my mettle upon her chittonus hide.

Slowly I crept to the front of the temple, crawling low, to aid my cammoflauge. I silently slithered past a number of Kilk guards, finally reaching the temple entrance. My eyes widened in horror, as I beheld the mass of warriors these creatures had guarding their sacred home. I quickly regained my composure, and steeled myself for what was to come. I am a Ranger, I know fear, yet I overcome it.

Silently I crept through the hallowed halls of this mighty fortress, careful not to alert the guards of the silent death that was approaching their Queen. As I entered the main chamber, I beheld the giant blue crystal spike. It seemed to radiate with some inner power. But my eyes were drawn away by the sight of my goal. There, amongst many of her warriors, stood the Dark Queen.

I calmed myself, for a Ranger does not simply rush into combat. I made my stratagy, and started the long, slow creep down into the pit. Several times, the guards seemed to sense something was amiss, only to loose their attention to other things, never noticing the skulking figure in the shadows.

I had finally made y way down, and was crouching in the shadows behind the Queen. Before me I beheld over 15 guards, none of them expecting what was to come. As I slowly crept up opon the queen, preparing to deliver the fatal blow, when I began to hear sounds that were out of place in these chambers...Blaster fire.

I looked up to see three heavily armed and armored persons enter the main chamber, running in and blasting everything in sight. One screamed out in agony as he was impaled upon a Kilk's mandable, his hunt was over. The guards surrounding the lower bit became adigtated, preparing for the assualt. I quickly rose up, to fell the Dark Queen before I was spotted.

As I was about to swing, one of the intruders shouted out "do you need any help?", and before I knew it, I had been spotted!!! A swarm of guards rushed at me, mandibles clicking in anger for my unobserved intrusion. I quickly speared the Dark Queen, her blood splaying over her oncomming guards. My mission was complete, the Dark Queen was dead.

But thanks to the ineptitude of these so called "Hunters" I now had to battle my way up the pit. My cautious plan for escape in ruins, and my weapon broken by the Queens incredibally hard hide. I slew several guards upon my climb, finally reaching the top of the pit. As I drew my battered frame to standing, the hunters came over. "Wow, you are really messed up" one stated as he viewed my multitude of wounds, tattered clothing, and broken sword. "You are lucky we came along when we did..."

I could not bear to deal with this fool and his delusions. I simply walked out of the Temple and back to my home, the wilds.....
