Can't reach a forge. Have to patch it myself.
Using beskar dust mixed with binding resin. Temporary fix. Will hold for maybe two weeks of combat. Then I need proper re-forging.
The weight of temporary repairs. Constant maintenance. Constant vigilance.

The micro-fractures are spreading. Right shoulder plate took too much strain during the Verdan job. Hairline cracks webbing across the beskar alloy like lightning frozen in metal.
Can't ignore it anymore. In combat, those cracks become failure points. One well-placed shot and the plate shatters. Exposes the mesh beneath. Exposes me.
Been transmitting on covert frequencies. Old codes from the scattered Mandalorians. Looking for a forge, a smith, anyone who can work beskar without the Empire noticing.
