Vae-Lez is the last of his kind. He has been living a life in the shadows, a thief and a mercenary for hire and for survival. Running from both the New Republic law and the last of the Imperial Army, he finds himself shipwrecked on Pagadon, an unforgiving ice planet whose climate is dangerously cold for Lez's kind. Desperate to get off the icy grave, Lez sneaks onto an old Razorcrest ship, unaware that it belongs to a certain Mandalorian bounty hunter. Din is not interested in making friends. His life of solitude and lonely travel is enough for him, and when he discovers an alluringly beautiful stowaway on his ship, he is only thinking of the bounty Lez may bring him. When no such bounty exists, Din intends to leave Lez on Nevarro and be done with the man, but an unintended altercation leads Din to believe Lez's skills may be useful in helping him track down his newest bounty. A tentative deal between the two is struck, and neither expected the blooming partnership to dip into anything further than acquaintances. But the Force works in strange ways.
