We're so unappreciated.

Hmm... well, you know the Isikaulit? It had a... a bad feeling around it for a while, to me, because of how it came to be in the Fleet.

[forcesensitive]

Huh. I didn't feel anything like that on there. How did it get to be in the Fleet?

[That was way before his time.]

[tobeajedi]

It belonged to a species called the Nunnali. They had been infected by some kind of fungal disease--it made them violent and by the time the Fleet encountered it, they were too far gone to be cured. So... the people who fought them had to kill them. There wasn't anything else to be done.

[She rubs the back of her neck, feeling a little ridiculous to be saying that under a Thon mask.]

I wasn't involved in the fighting myself, but I could feel the aftermath the first time I went on board. But since everyone's been creating things and you know, being alive there, it's faded.

[forcesensitive]

[He follows along with what she's saying, nodding in the appropriate places.]

So they all had to be killed?

[Finn may not know anything about the Force, but even the idea gives him a sick feeling inside. He swallows, hoping to disperse the mental image by looking around at the pageant around him. And, to an extent, it works.]

But--oh. So it gets overwritten? Yeah, that makes sense.
