Ett annat exempel är Jedi Master Taria Damsin , som dör från Borotavi syndrom .
Det beskrivs i grunden som cancer, däribland terminologi som "remission".
“So,” said Taria, once they were seated in a private booth with bowls
of steaming bean soup and fresh, crusty bread. The dining hall’s air
was warm and scented with good food. Scattered, cheerful conversations
provided a backdrop of sound. “To make a long story short, Ahsoka,
it’s called Borotavi syndrome. It’s not contagious but it is terminal.
Eventually.”
Ahsoka felt her mouth suck dry. Terminal? But—but—She’s so young and
strong and amazing. So alive. “How did you get it?”
“I ate the wrong kind of shellfish on Pamina Prime.” With a wry smile
Taria stirred a pinch of salt into her soup. “Turns out it’s the
blue-shelled mollusk with the green stripe you need to watch out for.
Blue mollusks with black stripes you can eat till you burst.” She sat
back. “Just a little tip to stand you in good stead, if ever you find
yourself on Pamina Prime.”
