THERE IS SOMETHING BITTERSWEET when Kera descends the ramp of the Razor Crest after the others. In reality, Kera is happy that she's made it. That she's one step closer to going home to Takodana. But there was a connection, a web strung and knitted together that had been torn apart.

   Trask is wet and humid. Different from all the places Kera has ever travelled to. Kera can almost feel a strangeness, an unsettlement that wavers through the air, that something is very wrong as she stands in the docks with nothing but ocean surrounding her. But Kera shrugs it off, unable to let herself be encapsulated by such idiotic thoughts.

   You are safe, Kera reminds herself.

   A dock worker of the Mon Calamari aquatic species quickly converses to the Mandalorian about possible repairs to the Razor Crest whilst Kera and K-3SO aid the Frog Lady in sighting her husband.

   As the Frog Lady continues to wander aimlessly through a crowd of dockworkers and call for her husband and only seconds later the Frog Lady's call is returned by a deeper croak. From across the dock the two spots one another, speeding on their feet through the crowds to embrace one another.

   Kera folds her arms across her chest, mumbling to no one in particular as she and her droid follow after the Mandalorian and his child in his egg-shaped floating pram, "That is probably the most heartwarming reunion I've ever witnessed."

   Whenever the Mandalorian mutters to the child is inaudible to Kera as she is truly focused in the heartwarming moment as she watches the couple bask in joy as they both press hands to the egg canister for a minute. Kera can feel her heart wrench at the sight and a smile tug at the corners of her lips because suddenly everything she had transpired over the course of leaving Tatooine and travelling to Trask is worth it. The Frog Lady and the Frog Man will finally have the family and the life they fought so hard for.

   The Frog Man arises and clasps the Mandalorian by the hand, bowing his head in respect and croaking in an attempt to display his gratitude.

  "You're welcome," The Mandalorian informs politely.

   The Frog Man quickly makes his way over to Kera and K-3SO, both offering them the same thanks as he did to the Mandalorian. Kera smiles brightly but confesses, "Oh no. It was all the Mandalorian. My droid and I, we, just tagged along for the adventure."

   The Frog Lady croaks in defiance, informing her husband that it wasn't true and Kera feels her gaze softens and she murmurs a 'thank you' as rare blush dances across her cheeks. Kera wasn't expecting any sort of praise or thanks. She and K-3SO just did what had to be done.
