Typho: Desert Rose
I figured the easiest of the items on the scavenger hunt list would’ve been the plant. I mean, all I had to do was find a market and get a vegetable, right?
Wrong!
I couldn’t find a market for an hour. Then when I finally found it, there were no vegetables or fruit – it was a meat market. I wasted another hour before I found a vegetable market. That didn’t work out either. It was an upscale market with mostly offworld produce and everything cost way more than the three credits allocated to me.
So I started to look for flower shops. That was a joke too. You can’t buy one flower.
Finally, when I was about to admit defeat, I spotted what looked like a greenhouse in the backyard of a home in a wealthy section of town.
I, uh, liberated a small white flower from the greenhouse.
Video switches to montage of Typho chucking a rock at the glass, yanking a branch off a plant, and being chased by dogs through the back alleys of Mos Eisley. The theme from Troops plays.
I’ll pay for the glass.
I’m good for the money.
I really hope this flower is native to Tatooine. It looks suspiciously tropical, but it’s too late to find anything else now.

Good going, Typhoon!
Where's your pet, Master Yoda? Oh, that's right -- you came back empty handed.
Oops!
