The Taun Taun appears--it seems it was closer than anyone expected. And by "appear" we mean it's crashing. You and Felina both scream as the ship passes a klick overhead, the thunder of its drives deafening--the only thing that saves you from being torn apart by the ship's wake is the fact that you're in a hollow between a pair of hills, and are therefore somewhat shielded from the turbulence. It seems that, without even the rudimentary guidance of Grand Moff Grand Moff, the helm crew has once again forgotten that an ISD-II isn't designed to land in an atmosphere or hover. To their credit, it's actually sort of semi-controlled. The ship slams into the ground in more or less one piece, smashing several square miles of Kansas farmland as it collides with the ground. It slides along for an additional couple of miles, digging a vast furrow, and finally comes to rest, listing to port. The vessel's hull is starting to sag under its weight--it's never going to fly again under it's own power.
