Synopsis:
A Jedi's work is never done - least of all Jedi husbands. Mara
Jade-Skywalker is forced to watch, bored out of her skull, as Luke
deals with one intergenerational problem after another on one of the
New Republic's many worlds. After the thirtieth complaint is dealt
with, the robed Presenter informs Luke that Second Agricultural
Coordinator Kei Res Cirali is asking for Luke's immediate presence
at the Karrish Mountain retreat. One airspeeder trip later, Cirali
greets Luke and his "blushing bride." As Mara bristles at
this, Cirali gets to the point: "What does one do when there
seems to be no time for the important things of life?" Just
what Mara was wondering, she thinks sadly.
He leads the couple into an elevator leading up to the
"consulting room" - a vast, beautiful and deserted suite.
"Happy second honeymoon, Mara," Luke whispers as he kisses
her. It was all a setup to give Luke and Mara some badly-needed time
together. Mara loves it, though she reminds Luke never to call her a
"blushing bride" again… |
