Vorg and Shirna's Disputed Luggage Set
A mismatched collection of large canvas and synthetic holdalls in varying states of disrepair, their straps frayed and labels bleached by interstellar travel. One bears the faded insignia of a minor trade guild from Vorg’s sector, another shows scorch marks from an earlier incident. The handlers immediately fixate on their irregular dimensions—two bags exceed standard cargo dimensions by a full handspan, drawing hostile scrutiny. Vorg and Shirna shift the luggage between them throughout the inspection, their movements betraying tension as they attempt to obscure the oversized cylinder hidden among the bags.
