A
Jedi on an investigation has access to almost limitless information within the confines of the
Jedi Temple, but not even those records are complete. When
Obi-Wan's search for the origins of a mysterious dart used to kill an assassin stalled, he turned to an old friend in Coco Town.
Few would look at Dexter Jettster and instantly think "gourmand," but the burly four-armed alien added successful cook and diner proprietor to the long list of careers he had experienced in his checkered life. Obi-Wan counted on Dex to identify the enigmatic weapon, and Jettster didn't fail him.
The cook correctly recognized the small tined projectile as a Kamino saberdart, a weapon he hadn't seen since his prospecting days on Subterrel, beyond the Outer Rim. Few have ever heard of the planet Kamino, but Dex not only informed Obi-Wan as to its location (12 parsecs south of the Rishi Maze), but also its inhabitants. Dex warned that the native Kaminoans -- cloners of some repute -- keep to themselves, but are welcoming to those with the credits to spare.
