[heypartner]

He wants you dead.

[festianbargain]

Not that part. The taking down the Empire part. If I can lay low long enough he'll forget about me.

[heypartner]

Empire's dead. Not gone. Remnants lurk in the Outer Rim but it's the New Republic now.

[festianbargain]

[ Cassian isn't sure what to make of that statement. It doesn't sound like he's trying to make some kind of joke. Maybe they're talking of different Empires. ]

Of course. My mistake.

[heypartner]

You don't seem very excited about that.

[festianbargain]

You are very certain of something that I know is not true. It's difficult to reconcile.

[heypartner]

Well, it's true for me. Swing by Mos Eisley sometime and take a look at the Trooper heads they've got on pikes. It's a nice touch.

[festianbargain]

That's more than they deserve.

[heypartner]

I don't know what they did to them before that. I wasn't in Mos Eisley when the Empire fell but it was chaos and violence.

[festianbargain]

It was chaos and violence before, too. They just wore clean uniforms and did it in secret locations. Or wiped out the entire planet so there was nobody to talk about it. Or crushing so many different places at once so that nobody can comprehend how widespread it all is.

[heypartner]

Never did really know the extent of the Empire. Knew what they were like on Tatooine. Figured they were that cruel everywhere else. But I've seen the holos. The Death Star is dead and gone.

[festianbargain]

What's a Death Star?

[ that sounds bad ]

[heypartner]

Huge starship. Big as a moon. They used it to blow up planets. Well, only one.

[festianbargain]

I don't know what's worse: what you're describing, or the fact that I'm not surprised they'd do something like that.

[heypartner]

They made two. Rebellion took both down.

[festianbargain]

[ For some reason it's the face that there were two that he finds especially difficult to swallow. He wants to believe that Vanth is truthful, and not crazy, but he's running out of alternate explanations.

Maybe a lot has happened while he's been in prison. ]

That's quite an achievement in so short a time.

[heypartner]

Took a few cycles. And like I said, there are remnants in the Outer Rim.

[festianbargain]

The Empire has barely touched the Outer Rim. It's just now firming up control of the Mid Rim.

[ RIP Morlana Corporate Zone. You sucked while you lasted but turns out there are worse things.

There is one possibility he hasn't considered. A last gasp at an explanation that isn't Vanth being a terrible liar or a dangerously unstable individual. ]

What year is it?

[heypartner]

9 ABY.

[ He can also be both of those things and still tell the truth. ]

[festianbargain]

What does ABY mean.

[ True, but inventing the whole "The Empire is gone and two Death Stars were blown up" is a little less in touch with reality than the average unhinged liar]

[heypartner]

After the Battle of Yavin. Such a big deal the New Republic started to measure time by it after they took over.
