Star Wars: Canto Bight | comment |
War is returning to the galaxy. As the First Order prepares to unleash their power on an unsuspecting New Republic, the only true opposition is the Resistance. Safe places are growing scarce, except on Cantonica. Emerging from the endless sands is Canto Bight, a city of excess and indulgence. In this luxurious escape for the wealthy and unscrupulous, dreams are made reality and the prospect of war brings only the opportunity for profit. Even as the darkness grows, visitors chase their fortunes enthralled by the glamour and thrill of the casino city. The fate of the galaxy matters little amid the glittering brilliance of Canto Bight. For whatever happens, Canto Bight prospers....Canto Bight is a Star Wars Expanded Universe anthology of four novellas that focuses on different inhabitants of the casino city Canto Bight. It was released on December 5, 2017, as part of the Journey to Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Each story features a small measure of crossover or references to the events of another tale in the anthology."Rules of the Game" by Saladin Ahmed follows vaporator salesman Kedpin Shoklop's first night in Canto Bight after he wins a trip there for being salesperson of the year. The naïve Shoklop quickly finds himself at the mercy of Canto Bight's callous and duplicitous culture, but the interest of Syndicate member Anglang Lehet may prove to be his salvation or death."The Wine in Dreams" by Seanan McGuire sees the arrival of renowned wine trader Derla Pidys to Canto Bight as she seeks to acquire a legendary wine from the equally legendary Grammus sisters in the nightclub of Ubialla Gheal, who has her own plans for the wine."Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing" by Rae Carson focuses on masseuse Lexo Sooger as he races against the clock to rescue his adopted daughter from the clutches of gangster Big Sturg Ganna."The Ride" by John Jackson Miller sees card player Kaljach Sonmi encounter the Lucky Three, whose strange relationship with probability sends Kaljach's life into a spiral and towards certain doom unless he can find a way to harness their winning and losing ways to his advantage. | |

Expensive Glass of Crap: Discussed. While Derla is far too professional to ever sell something that isn't what she says it is, she believes it's the story around the wine she sells, not the wine itself. | |

"It" Is Dehumanizing: The Grammus Twins obtain a clerk from a resort and refer to her as Souvenir. In a brief act of defiance, she tells them her name: Calla. They make a distinction that she is not a slave and will be let go after their business is done. | |

Hidden Depths: Kedpin spends most of the story being easily conned, obsequious, and oblivious to those around him with a truly naive view of the world, but proves to have backbone when the chips are down, and actually conned his way into the trip in the first place after realizing the company lottery was rigged. | |

Batman Gambit | |
Star Wars: Canto Bight / int_38d02d44 | comment |
Batman Gambit: Set up by the Grammus Twins. Their species operates in pairs and to enact their wine deal with Derla, had planned to bring in Calla to complete the set. They also planned on Ubialla intervening and trying to take the wine for herself, which is what she attempts. The pair is now Derla and Ubialla. After playing some mind games with them, they give one bottle each to Ubialla and Derla. Derla gets the real wine and unknown to her Ubialla gets a fake wine, made from swill. They set Ubialla up, knowing one day she will serve the fake wine which will spiral out for her with accusations of scamming her customers. | |

Crapsaccharine World: Everything and everyone in the story is lies, deceit, and cons dressed up pretty and accompanied by a story. Ubialla's attempt to kill all three for a bottle might be the only time anyone is completely honest. Calla also lampshades how the majority of Canto Bight's patrons will end up as menial servants when their luck runs out and any wealth or status is ultimately temporary. | |

Defeating the Cheating Opponent | |
Star Wars: Canto Bight / int_ad042153 | comment |
Defeating the Cheating Opponent: During the climactic card game of pazaak (basically the Star Wars version of blackjack), rival player Orisha is caught using a trick card that can change to any number she wants. Because she threatens to pull all her money from the game if penalized, money which the protagonist Kaljach desperately needs, he allows her to play her illegal card. Fortunately for Kal, Orisha's card malfunctions due to a prior accident, which sends her score over the limit and gives him the win. | |

The Ace: Orisha Okum, an ace card player. Kal is very good himself just not as good as Orisha. That is because she cheats. | |

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: Is it just incredible luck, or do the Suerton brothers really have some sort of supernatural talent? | |

Beyond the Impossible | |
Star Wars: Canto Bight / int_cc6f4612 | comment |
Beyond the Impossible: In the game pazaak (which has rules similar to blackjack/21), players are allowed to use a side deck to change their numbers for their benefit. It is revealed Orisha has a trick card that can change its number as needed. After the Suerton's Disaster Dominoes, the trick card is stuck at "+333". Since Kal already agreed to let Orisha use the trick card, Orisha played it not knowing it malfunctioned. Meaning the play was legal but the number for this particular game impossible. She busts with a score of 350. | |

Pheromones: The key to Lexo's skill as a masseuse and why everyone wants him is his ability to secrete pheromones to soothe patients. Or poison them. | |

Friendship Moment | |
Star Wars: Canto Bight / int_d6b5f05f | comment |
Friendship Moment: Before they part ways, Anglang and Kedpin develop a friendship despite the day's events. This is solidified when Anglang calls Kedpin "Ked", something Kedpin said all of his friends called him. He doesn't actually have any friends. | |

Contrived Coincidence | |
Star Wars: Canto Bight / int_dc579c91 | comment |
Contrived Coincidence: The coincidences surrounding the brothers when they're all three together are frankly miraculous. They bet on a half-blind, deaf, aging fathier who's never placed to win? A fire breaks out and startles every animal but the deaf winning one, the person who would oversee the validity of the race was hospitalized for the moment, and the conductor just happened to step up, making the race valid. | |

Disaster Dominoes | |
Star Wars: Canto Bight / int_e4ba33fc | comment |
Disaster Dominoes: When all 3 Suerton brothers are together, this seems to happen. A prime example is during the fathier race, when one brother trips and ultimately causes a small fire to break out, with their blind and deaf fathier winning because the others were too scared by the fire and alarms. | |

Identical Twins: The Grammus sisters, Parallela and Rhomby, not only look exactly alike but act exactly alike. Calla, the clerk the twins take with them as a "guide", learns how to distinguish between the two. | |
