The plan is in motion.  Beegax, Elo, and the crew of The Way have done all they can to prepare for the ambitious take over of two sets of artillery.  And with the sudden death of criminal Zalto the Hutt, they race against time in order to raise chaos amongst the factions in and around the planet Socorro, in order to escape the frontier system. Equal parts cunning, subterfuge, bravery, and luck are required to pull off their difficult scheme, balanced upon a razor thin margin for error.  With the odds stacked against them, and the potential for it all to fall apart, Elo and Beegax submit themselves and their crew to two different dangerous deployments.

Zalto the Hutt is dead.  His grip on Socorro severed, much to the elation of the criminal Triumvirate that governs the planet.  But before his corpulent corpse can cool, the fearless fringers Elo and Beegax must enact the rest of their plan to throw Socorro into chaos in order to escape the system. Their troubles far from over, Beegax and Elo scramble to keep their element of surprise as The Empire’s shadow looms in its search for the surly dug slicer and his stolen Imperial intelligence.  Will the crime lord Triumvirate keep their end of a bitter bargain?  Will a swift retaliation come from the Hutt home world?  Will the Empire crack down on this frontier town?  Freedom hangs in the balance for our star weary wanderers.

The cards are dealt, all bets are off, and the crew of The Way have made a plan to deal with not only their blackmail blues, but the criminal leaders on the dusty frontier of Socorro.  Elo and Beegax once again head to the unfinished casino of Zalto the Hutt to enact the first step of their clever but dangerous ploy. Will they manage to play both sides and beat the House?  Or Will their numbers come up 86?  The stakes and the aces have never been higher, and when the chips are down the fringers may need to push their luck.   ‼️IMPORTANT LINKS‼️ Raphael Warnock Campaign -  Donate or Volunteer! - https://warnockforgeorgia.com/ @ReverendWarnock John Ossof Campaing - Donate or Volunteer! - https://electjon.com/ @Ossoff Fair Fight - Fighting For Voter Education and Against Voter Suppression - https://fairfight.com/ @FairFightAction @StaceyAbrams Act Blue - Raising money for progressive groups and Democratic candidates   For more info and scheduling follow @RespectTheCrit Host & GM - Ian Duncan @iduncs Elo - Jamie Lee-Bonés @jamielee.bones Beegax Botano - Alex Herrera @aeherrera Whatever the system, whether it's a miss or a hit, you always gotta respect the crit!   Original music provided with license or permissions by: "Solo Fan Made"  - Luis Humanoide  "Star Wars Epic Cover I" - Parademics "The Madalorian Season 2 Trailer Music Epic Version" - Samuel Kim Music from Filmmusic.io "Tempting Secrets" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Indore" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Master Disorder" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Industrial Cinematic" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Long Note Two" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Scattershot" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Grave Blow" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Sugar Fairies" by Rafael Krux License: CC BY "Heroic Trailer" by Rafael Krux License: CC BY "Gunslinger" by Alexander Nakarada License: CC BY "Cinematic Suspense Series Ep. 004" by Sascha Ende License: CC BY "OldSanJ" by Lilo Sound License: CC BY "His Eyes Are Fire (Drums)" by Loe Wen Klang License: CC BY Additional music by Pro Scores from Video Copilot

Once again the fringers Elo and Beegax made a climatic escape from Socorro’s walled city.  Only this time they have joined with Bothan spy, Gir Tu'Tey, the elusive son of Elo’s former master.  With their search for Gir finally over, Beegax and Elo can now focus on escaping Socorro alive. Extorted by the Triumvirate, in deep with Zalto the Hutt, hounded by Imperials, and still pursued by assailants, the fringers mouths have talked them into corners their feet might have trouble walking out of.  The duo may be facing down more enemies than they ever have before, but for the first time they may also have more allies at their backs.   ‼️IMPORTANT LINKS‼️ Raphael Warnock Campaign -  Donate or Volunteer! - https://warnockforgeorgia.com/ @ReverendWarnock John Ossof Campaing - Donate or Volunteer! - https://electjon.com/ @Ossoff Fair Fight - Fighting For Voter Education and Against Voter Suppression - https://fairfight.com/ @FairFightAction @StaceyAbrams   For more info and scheduling follow @RespectTheCrit Host & GM - Ian Duncan @iduncs Elo - Jamie Lee-Bonés @jamielee.bones Beegax Botano - Alex Herrera @aeherrera Whatever the system, whether it's a miss or a hit, you always gotta respect the crit!   Original music provided with license or permissions by: "Solo Fan Made"  - Luis Humanoide  "Star Wars Epic Cover I" - Parademics "Luke and Leia Theme Epic Cinematic Version" & "The Mandalorian Suite Epic Orchestral Mix" - Samuel Kim "The Way of Light" & "The Force Awakens Tribute" - William Maytook "The Force Theme Extended" & "Order 66 Piano Theme" - Lucas King Music from Filmmusic.io "Moonlight Beach" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Peaceful Desolation" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Desert Night" by Sascha Ende License: CC BY "Artemis" by Sascha Ende License: CC BY "Spy Story" by Winne The Moog License: CC BY "Big Eyes" by Rafael Krux License: CC BY "Suspenseful Cinematic Ambient" by MusicLFiles License: CC BY

Outer Rim fringers, Elo and Beegax, have once again traveled to the walled city of Cjallysce'i in hopes of finding the son of Elo’s former Bothan master.  Trying to keep their movements untracked, they journeyed through underground volcanic tunnels to reach their destination in secret.  But after finding their mark within a discreet safe house, the fringers were ambushed by an unknown IG assassin unit and Beegax was shot by blaster bolt. Who is hunting our hapless heroes?  Will they make it out of the walled city alive once more?  Will Elo be forced to choose between their duty or their alliance?  Life hangs in the balance in this Socorran shootout.   ‼️IMPORTANT LINKS‼️ Raphael Warnock Campaign -  Donate or Volunteer! - https://warnockforgeorgia.com/ @ReverendWarnock John Ossof Campaing - Donate or Volunteer! - https://electjon.com/ @Ossoff Fair Fight - Fighting For Voter Education and Against Voter Suppression - https://fairfight.com/ @FairFightAction @StaceyAbrams   For more info and scheduling follow @RespectTheCrit Host & GM - Ian Duncan @iduncs Elo - Jamie Lee-Bonés @jamielee.bones Beegax Botano - Alex Herrera @aeherrera Whatever the system, whether it's a miss or a hit, you always gotta respect the crit!   Original music provided with license or permissions by: "Solo Fan Made"  - Luis Humanoide  "Star Wars Epic Cover I" - Parademics Music from Filmmusic.io "All This" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Prelude and Action" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Round Drums" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Volatile Reaction" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Industrial Cinematic" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Firebrand" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "His Eyes Are Fire" by Loewenklang License: CC BY "Impact" by Alexander Nakarada License: CC BY "Chase" by Alexander Nakarada License: CC BY "Ominous Forces" by Rafael Krux License: CC BY "Alien Invasion" by Rafael Krux License: CC BY "Doomsday Clock" by Rafael Krux License: CC BY Additional music by Pro Scores from Video Copilot

After an exhaustive search, Elo and Beegax have finally found the son of Elo’s former master, a Bothan spy named Gir Tu'Tey, hiding out in the isolated city of Cjallysce'i.  Spending time and resources to track him down has embroiled the fringers in several criminal enterprises and deals have been made with all types of unsavory citizens of Socorro. Can this reunion bring the closure Elo is looking for?  What other agreements will our fringers make or break just to survive?  Life and loyalty tips in the balance out here at the Emipre’s Edge.

After a harrowing battle with Socorran fauna, Beegax and Elo continue their journey to the walled city of Cjaalysce'i via a network of tunnels below the surface of the planet.  However, human crew for hire, Verse, is less than thrilled about the fringers plans to help a Hutt fool the local crime lords and instigate an open conflict between Socorro and the Hutt homeworld. But will her objections endanger Elo and Beegax’s plans?  Will they be forced to hide another body?  Survival and obligation pull in two directions as our fringers navigate the subterranean labyrinth.

Back on Socorro, The fringers, Beegax and Elo have struck a deal with the off world gangster, Zalto the Hutt.  In exchange for faking the Hutt’s death, giving him an excuse to go to war with the local Socorran crime lords, Elo and Beegax have been given access to secret, underground tunnels running form the Hutt casino under the walled city, Cjallysce'i. Once again traversing below the surface of the planet, our fringers tread cautiously into the darkest depths, in hopes of finding Elo’s elusive Bothan beneficiary.

On the return trip couriering from the Imperial base on Scarif, the crew of The Way panicked after plowing into a pod of pesky purrgils, knocking their ship out of light speed.  Elo believed they were on the verge of understanding their strange glitches and once again recruited Beegax’s help to slice into they’re own mind.  However the delve into the droid’s depths went much deeper than they expected, pulling  Beegax and Elo into a strange miasma. Pushing for answers Elo found themselves on the planet Dathomir among the mysterious Nightsisters, during a surprise attack by Separatist forces.  Both fringers made it back firmly aboard their ship but with unanswered questions, unexplainable experiences, and unfinished business.   For more info and scheduling follow @RespectTheCrit GM - Ian Duncan @iduncs Elo - Jamie Lee-Bonés @jamielee.bones Beegax Botano - Alex Herrera @aeherrera   Whatever the system, whether it's a miss or a hit, you always gotta respect the crit!   Original music provided with license or permissions by: "Solo Fan Made" - Luis Humanoide  "Star Wars Epic Cover I" - Parademics "Space Wars Underscore" - Graham Plowman "Swamp Planet" & "Desert Winds" - TableTop Audio Music from Filmmusic.io "Long Note One" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Ignition" by Alexander Nakarada License: CC BY "Big Eyes" by Rafael Krux License: CC BY Additional music by Pro Scores from Video Copilot

CONTENT WARNING: dismemberment, loud W.A.P. in the episode tag Heading back to the planet Socorro, Elo interfaced with their ship, The Way, in an attempt to scan for pirate threats when entering the system. But Elo was unexpectedly drawn into some mysterious part of their program, and found themselves on the surface of Dathomir, a remote world shrouded in mystery. Before Elo could investigate the cause of this strange glitch, the crew was ejected out of light speed after almost colliding with a pod of purrgils traveling through the Outer Rim expanse. Elo and Beegax decided to probe further into the droid's processors, hoping to uncover the bizarre malfunctions.  But as the fringers dove into the droid's memories, Beegax was ejected from the system, and Elo pushed on seeking answers alone in the strange fog.   For more info and scheduling follow @RespectTheCrit GM - Ian Duncan @iduncs Elo - Jamie Lee-Bonés @jamielee.bones Beegax Botano - Alex Herrera @aeherrera   Whatever the system, whether it's a miss or a hit, you always gotta respect the crit!   Original music provided with license or permissions by: "Solo Fan Made", "Canto Bight Chase" & "Battle on Crait" - Luis Humanoide  "Star Wars Epic Cover I" - Parademics "The Way of Light" - William Maytook "Order 66" - Lucas King "Ahsoka & Vader Original Theme", "General Grievous Epic Theme" & "Duel of the Fates Ahsoka & Maul Epic Theme"  -  Samuel Kim "Space Battle", "Abandoned Windmill" & "Sunken Treasure" by Tabletop Audio Music from Filmmusic.io "Suspenseful Cinematic Ambient" by Musiclfiles License: CC BY "Darkness Speaks" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Gathering Darkness" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Futuristic 3" by Alexander Nakarada License: CC BY "Alien Invasion" by Rafael Krux License: CC BY Additional music by Pro Scores from Video Copilot

Against Beegax’s own advice, the fringers have taken a job for Zalto the Hutt, who has hired them to make an exchange on the Imperial outpost of Scarif. Now they are caught in the middle of a dangerous power struggle between the corpulent criminal and the machiavellian malefactors of Socorro.  On which side will their loyalties fall, who is worth more to betray, and will they be able to come away unscathed or be buried among the shallow graves of those that stood against these crime lords of the Outer Rim?   For more info and scheduling follow @RespectTheCrit GM - Ian Duncan @iduncs Elo - Jamie Lee-Bonés @jamielee.bones Beegax Botano - Alex Herrera @aeherrera   Whatever the system, whether it's a miss or a hit, you always gotta respect the crit!   Original music provided with license or permissions by: "Solo Fan Made" & "Battle on Crait/Force Theme" - Luis Humanoide  "Star Wars Epic Cover I" - Parademics "Rebel Assault" & "Escape Through the Asteroids" - Graham Plowman & Audiojungle "The Asteroid Field Epic Han Solo Version" -  Samuel Kim Music from Filmmusic.io "New Direction" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Long Note One" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Long Note Two" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Expeditionary" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Showdown" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Prelude and Action" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Black Vortex" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Scattershot" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Consequence" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Redletter" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Desert Night" by Sascha Ende License: CC BY Additional music by Pro Scores from Video Copilot

Beegax and Elo have accepted a job from gregarious gangster, Zalto the Hutt.  Transporting cargo and materials between the Outer Rim world of Socorro, and the Imperial occupied paradise of Scarif.  In exchange they learned of a Bothan residing behind the clandestine walls of Cjaalysce'i, identified as Sno Ba’all.  A possible lead in their search for the Bothan Spy Gir Tu’Tey.  But Elo and Beegax are caught between sides, pressured to assassinate Zalto for the crime lords of Socorro, or to turn the tables and ally with the hubristic Hutt. All while the Empire moves in to suppress insurgent activity in the region and continue their search for stolen slicing equipment.  The fearless fingers are anxious to leave the desert world as tensions and occupying forces mount around this dusty frontier. ‼️IMPORTANT LINKS AND TOOLS‼️ Bond Funds: Oregon - PDX Protest Bail Fund Portland Freedom Fund Chicago - Chicago Community Bond Fund Los Angeles: People's City Council Freedom Fund Oakland / San Jose Democratic Socialists of America Silicon Valley National organizations: NAACP ACLU Visit Black Lives Matter to donate and find the nearest chapter in your area.

While avoiding the Empire presence on Socorro, Elo and Beegax took the opportunity to re-equip and rearm themselves, and came away with a rare Jedi weapon from a less than reputable source.  After recouping their losses, the fringers make their way to the extravagant casino at the edge of the city, its construction rising to rival the towers of Soco-Jaal spaceport. It is there they are to meet Zalto the Hutt, a notorious gangster and target of an assassination plot engineered by the crime lords of Socorro.  Elo and Beegax must weigh their option carefully, which side of this rivalry will they fall on, what are they willing to risk, and how will they escape the system alive?   For more info and scheduling follow @RespectTheCrit GM - Ian Duncan @iduncs Elo - Jamie Lee-Bonés @jamielee.bones Beegax Botano - Alex Herrera @aeherrera   Whatever the system, whether it's a miss or a hit, you always gotta respect the crit!   Original music provided with license or permissions by: "Solo Fan Made" - Luis Humanoide  "Star Wars Epic Cover I" - Parademics "Imperial March Heroic" - Lucas King "The Way of Light" - William Maytook "Cyberpunk Bar" by Tabletop Audio Music from Filmmusic.io "Lotus" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Secret of Tiki Island" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Desert City" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Past the Edge" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Master Disorder" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Ominous" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Jalandhar" by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY "Gunslinger" by Alexander Nakarada License: CC BY "Sandstorm" by Alexander Nakarada License: CC BY "Vopna" by Alexander Nakarada License: CC BY "Ice and Snow" by Rafael Krux License: CC BY "Breaking News 5" by Sascha Ende License: CC BY "Desert Night" by Sascha Ende License: CC BY
