Having a bit of a problem getting to sleep, and I don't have access to the old methods of dealing with it here. Unless sleep powder is still a thing and people are hiding it.

Anyway, basically what I'm looking for is any remedies or advice people might have for getting to sleep. Or possibly a sparring partner to at least exhaust me to the point of passing out.

Or bedtime stories. There's no books, but bedtime stories are nice, good way to learn about other people's worlds and all that.

[A soothing voice? Nida smiles at that idea.]

Thanks for the compliment. Which isn't to say yours isn't soothing itself. I've quite enjoyed it.

I wouldn't say know. I suppose I should start walking home anyway.

Well, I mean, I can at least keep you company while you do that. Be kinda rude if I just let you walk home alone in the dark, right? We can figure out what story I'm going to tell you. What are your thoughts on evil empires, hopeful rebellions, family reunions, sassy robots, space wizards and epic duels?

Why you’re quite the gentleman, walking me home.  Are all of those individual options or in one lump sum? Because if you have a story with all of that, I am completely down with it. Especially as I am he child of members of a hopeful rebellion against an evil empire I have helped fight space-time witches and I am down for epic duels.

Hey, you aren't the only gentleman in town, buddy.

[There's that laugh again in Billy's voice, and he quickly warms to his story.]

Then you're going to love this story. I'll tell you the first part while you're walking home, then the next time you can't sleep, just call me and I'll keep going. Deal? Okay, so. This is how it starts:

Long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away...
