“Enemy forces are down to the crippled frigate and three functioning V-19s,” Faro reported. “I assume you’d like us to corral and capture the remaining fighters intact if possible?”
“If possible,” Thrawn said. “If not, the Empire will have sufficient prisoners for interrogation among the rest of the survivors.”
“Yes, sir.”
Vanto came up beside him. “Commodore?” he asked, his voice quiet and disturbed. “What are we going to do about the Wookiees?”
“We will leave them here.”
Vanto is silent a moment. “I’m not completely comfortable with the idea that the Empire is using slaves, sir.”
“Terms are not always as they seem, Commander,” Thrawn said. “They are called slaves, but they may in fact be indentured servants. They may be prisoners working off their sentence. They may have sold themselves into slavery as a means of repaying debts to others on their world. I have seen all those situations at times.”
“You really think any of those are likely?”
“No,” Thrawn said, his tone hardening. “But it does not matter. However these beings were pressed into service, they are now Imperial assets. They will be treated as such.”
