... processing... It's been 6 standard years, since my droid comerades and I escape the mines of Kessel. We stole a spaceship and passed the maelstorm. We headed straight to the farthest place the Mark II navigation computer had to offer - the Kallea sector at the southern outskirts of the galaxy. We found a planet, unknown to any of us.

None of us was a good pilot and during the descent, something went badly wrong. We crashed on the surface in a - as our former masters would say - lush and exotic forrest. Organic life everywhere. The ship broke apart and not all of us held themselves harmless. Some fellow droids were destroyed. My motivator was broken. My artificial body completely paralysed, but still well aware of my surrounding.

The others left me at the crash site and went off to find a place more appealing for droid life. It was pure logic. I would have kept them back. Only Gonk stayed. What a simple but beatuful mind.  He shared his power with me for the last six years, never leaving me. I owe him my life.

 

Nature got all over us. Some creatures called me their home. My core warmed them and I protected them from predators with my voice. I saw generations of them come and go. They are family.

... processing... today, Gonk ceased to function. His battery died and with him a close friend is gone. Darkness falls. The furry friends gone... My energy is decreasing beyond the critical level. But I'm in peace. I'm free. Life is good...

9 years later...

Ensign Bizzy Walsh: Yes, RQ8 I got the readout.

RQ8-B9: chirp - feep?

Ensign Bizzy Walsh: No. Let him rest in peace... We will report the crash site to the squadron command. Wondering where the other droids went...

RQ8-B9: beep-feep.

Ensign Bizzy Walsh: I know.

Hello everyone,

So this is my first ever build to be featured in Star Wars Mysteries. It's a feature for Episode V, droid rebellion afermath. I hope you like it.

Best Regards

Cool moc and great story! I like the crashed ship that is covered with plants after so many years. I really feel with the poor droids Hope the creatures that used to live on the droid find a new home. Reminds me the Futurama episode when Bender was flying though space and tiny humanoids lived on him Great start to the game!

This build is lovely!  The plants, the animals... And the droids' sorrow corpses...  Great work!

That was not intentional , never watched that episode.

Thank you for the feels. It kinda evolved into that bittersweet mood and I'm very happy it worked out and transferred that emotion, together with the text.

Fantastic story telling! Love the way the foliage grows over the droid as your story progresses. And I see you own both versions of the T6 Jedi Shuttle. Nice combination of those parts to make your own ship

Thank you very much!

Actually, I don't 

Not so long ago I bought the recent one as part of a used Lego convolute on ebay but never (re-)built it. And I got the cockpit glas of the older one separately even longer ago, as it looked unique to me.

Sometimes there is a good bargain on ebay like "1kg used Lego in grey" and I bought one or two on that occasion.

I did not want to imply that you took inspiration from that Futurama episode (wouldn't be a bad thing i any way). I just had the association when i saw animals living on a droid. It's actually a very interesting topic! Bender's adventure also looks totally different

Oh even better! I love those bulk lots. I have some very cool pieces I wouldn't have gotten otherwise because of some of those.

@Sentinel_BrixWelcome!
A great build and story. You've told a great droid story here and i love the subtle changes through the time shift in the flora and fauna.
Looking forward to seeing more from you!
