== Plot == |
|||
An armored hovertrain approaches the [[Tusken Raider]]' camp, taking out several Tuskens before riding away into the desert. Troubled by their plight, [[Boba Fett]] travels to Tosche Station where he is attacked by Nikto miners at the cantina. After defeating them, he takes their [[speeder bike]]s to the Tuskens' camp, and begins to teach them how to ride and use the bikes in a plan to rob the hovertrain. After fighting several sentries they reach the train engine and Fett manages to stop the train by using his gaderffii stick to disable the ship's engines. The Tuskens loot the train of weapons and supplies, and take the surviving Pykes captmask. Soon Fett confronts the leader of the Pykes and tells him that since the Tuskens claim the Dune Sea as ancestral ground, a toll must now be paid for passage, and lets them return to the Pyke Syndicate. |
|||
Later, the Tusken chief gives Fett a lizard in a basket, which climbs into his nostrils, causing him to experience visions including him climbing out of the [[Sarlacc]]{{efn|As depicted in ''[[Return of the Jedi]]'' (1983) and ''[[The Book of Boba Fett]]'' episode "[[Chapter 1: Stranger in a Strange Land]]" (2021)}} and watching [[Jango Fett|his father]] leave Kamino on the [[Slave I]] as a child.{{efn|As depicted in ''[[Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones]]'' (2002)}} Fett returns to the Tusken camp the following day, and presents a branch from his night journey to the Tuskens. They lead Fett to a tent, where they clothe him in Tusken robes, and help him forge the branch into a new gaderffii stick. He parties that night with the other Tuskens, becoming one of their own. |
|||
In the present day, [[Fennec Shand]] takes the captured assassin into Boba's palace, where he holds him in court, demanding to know who sent him. After arguing, Shand deactivates the trapdoor to the [[Rancor]]'s den causing the assassin to panic and reveals he was sent by the mayor of Mos Espa. Begging for his life, Shand reveals the pit is empty, and they take him to visit the Ithorian mayor, Mok Shaiz, but he is shot by one of the mayor's guards. He then thanks Fett for turning him in, confirming he didn't send the assassin or have intentions of killing him, suggesting Boba to visit Garsa Fwip. Arriving at Garsa's Sanctuary, Garsa explains that "the Twins" have laid claim to their late cousin [[Jabba the Hutt]]'s bequest, while the rocession carries the two Hutts. Fett confronts the Hutts, demanding that they are in his territory, stating that he is the Daimyo of Mos Espa. An armed black [[Wookiee]] known as [[Black Krrsantan]] approaches, but Fett instead of being intimidated, warns him that he will kill him if it's necessary. Shand tells Fett that they will have to get permission to kill the Hutts, while Fett accepts that this is not over yet. |
