The Flow of Love

[Unna Hi Chaanu]

"You asked about the Jedi playing by the rules..." Unna shrugged, "but perhaps I provided more information than you had intended for me too."

"When I say Haze is in the past, I mean he is in the past for us. Unless the interrogators need my assistance, then my energy is best spent on my current endeavor. He is still imprisoned and surely being subjected to interrogation. When you make someone pay with blood, there are other prices we pay. His knowledge of where the physical and metaphorical bodies are buried would die with him, along with any other secrets or potential cures. That knowledge could save someone and taking payment in the form of blood would also be the death of the hope that could have come from that knowledge. Besides, I have visited friends who were being held in a holding facility at the academy. They were suspended by their hands and feet with no measures of comfort. I had to sneak food in and feed them..."

Unna's eyes suddenly showed pain and horror as she watched Ni put a toe into the water of the fountain. "Ni," Unna pleaded. "If you would like to swim, I can take you to the pools, but I have to ask that you not get into the fountain. It could encourage others and the city had a huge issue with that recently. They were desecrated and it took great efforts to restore them to the beauty you see now. Besides, these fountains were built for my friend. That's why I talk to her in the fountains." Unna looked to Ni with hope and anticipation that she would understand and respect the passionate request.
