*hugs*  Karasu.<br/><br/>I got the impression, Karasu-chan, that Minuet's goals might include:<br/>Achieve her full potential as a starship pilot by doing great deeds.<br/>Learn to use the Force.  (Perhaps this is a 'destiny' she doesn't want but needs to achieve anyway?)<br/><br/>Other possibilities:<br/>Avenge Vasher.<br/>Regain full ownership of Star Fury.<br/><br/><br/>*  *  *<br/><br/>For me:<br/><br/><br/>Okay, let's see:<br/><br/>Zeeko's motivation is two fold.<br/>A.  He wants to prove that traditional Gungan ways--especially martial arts--have a place in the galaxy at large.  While there's no harm in learning the weapons of outsiders, Gungan's have no need to learn and purchase rifles, vibroblades, or hard tech vehicle hulls to be competitive in the galaxy.<br/>One way he hopes to do this is to do something heroic and dangerous that rightfully deserves recognition.<br/><br/>B.  Zeeko wants to be a successful representative to the galaxy at large of the glory of the Gungan people.
