Expounded Universe ·

2025/04/24

Honestly, I-5 isn't even super important here, we just think it's so funny how he keeps having a module for exactly what the group needs every time. Really, this is the "Xizor Makes His Move" set of chapters.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

298 - Rostu on the Smuggle Bus

Expounded Universe ·

2025/02/26
