the feeling of losing a loved one was a feeling so'lek was all too familiar with. having lost the entirety of his clan, he had a deep scar on his heart when it came to the matter of loss.

so when mercer attacked the resistance headquarters and you were not found in the aftermath and the wreckage, that feeling came back tenfold. after having been hoping to shake it that feeling it only came back again.

the only reason he wasn't searching night and day for you was the fact that his presence was so very needed at the new hideout for the resistance. so'lek had settled for keeping watch around the clock instead.

it had been two days, four hours, and thirty-four minutes since priya had told him that you were missing. he'd counted. on the thirty-fifth minute he saw you again, bounding up the hill. that feeling of dread lifted off his shoulders and he almost dropped his gun.
