This is the result of your successful Foresight. Comments follow before your vision.
Feel free to discuss visions with me, but I will not explain their meaning.
Cosmic Force Predictive powers tend to act as a hint system for the coming Episode. They act as a spoiler for some forthcoming event or events, and show you possible outcomes of that event/those events to be desired or avoided. Always in motion, the future is... so nothing you see here is set; you may change the outcome or even prevent the foreseen event from happening at all. Foresight, especially for Jedi, is entirely unselfish and may tell you of trouble for others, not yourself; so long as it is vaguely relevant to you (i.e. you are in the same Episode. Not even necessarily in the same place though!). You receive +4 on any Foresight roll if the coming Episode is relevant to you directly- if this is the case, then the vision will most certainly be about yourself alone. 'Direct Relevance' does not refer to there simply being things that interest you- it basically means any Episode where the plot revolves around your character.
The higher your Force rating, the more helpful Foresight tends to be. Major Revelations may even give hints from beyond the current storyline.
Foresight can be combated by the Dark Side power Obfuscate, which hides the Dark Side from the Force. If this is ever relevant, a judgment is made based on the Force ratings of both people involved, and how devolved the perceived event is from the Obfuscator- even Sidious cannot cloak the whole Galaxy, but he is powerful enough to do planets like Kamino. Note that Obfuscate affects Light and Dark Side alike!
You have scored a Minor Revelation. It will provide you with clues and hints and will probably involve a mix of actual events with dream-like interpretation, but it won't solve the whole story for you, and the help it gives you may be quite cryptic.
Your vision follows.
-
When will you know you have gone too far?
Are you sure you know what too far is? I think you might not.
Is this too far?
An enormous explosion blows the mighty gates of the Sanctuary apart. The defenders are in a hopeless position now. They will be slaughtered. And you made it all possible.
They come at you now, like angry dogs, trying to tear you down, for you have represented the end of their dreams. You slash at a gun coming towards you, watching the flash as you slice it in half, and the man’s arm with it; a quick twirl and his head follows. More are coming; you ruin one through without thinking about it, and the carnage around you intensifies…
Not enough for you perhaps?
“Who are you?” you call out.
An old friend of a friend. How far will you go, Jelena?
They cannot fight on. They shouldn’t fight on. But they do. The death toll is rising. And there you are, in the middle of it. Another comes, you slash him down. Your friends are at your side. Another comes, he dies too. An ARMY is at your side. Here us another, now he is dead also. So easy. So easy to kill. And still it is not enough. Wait… where’s Roan? No matter. He’s done his part.
Not far enough yet. And Roan should be careful. He doesn’t know where he is treading. He thinks he is going to save the day, but he doesn’t even know who the enemy is.
“Who ARE you?” You try to turn around in the darkness, but strong hands hold you firm.
No. Don’t turn around. That path is not for you. Besides, you should watch. Is this too far?
That’s it. It is done. They stop now. You are victorious. But al this trouble. All this needless death. They should pay.
“No!” you cry out.
Watch!
The man is wounded, stricken down, unarmed. “No!” he cries out, scrambling away from you as you advance
“This isn’t true!”
Is that too far, Jelena? Is that too far?
“Stop it!”
You stand astride over him, as he raises his hands in defence. “Please!” he cries. And your sabre comes down.
“NO!” you shout out. The strong hands grip you more firmly.
Over the line, now? Is that where you are going?
“I wouldn’t DO that!”
Wouldn’t you? Look what you are doing, Jelena!
He’s dead, but that’s not enough. You scream, a long, endless scream, as your sabre hacks into him, again and again and again and again and again…
“NOOOOOOOOO!” you scream yourself.
It was you too, Jelena. You don’t know who the enemy is. You know what a traitor is, Jelena?
A traitor is someone who doesn’t know who the enemy is!
You finally break your grip and turn around.
“How can you know?”
Who’s going to draw the line, if you have gone too far?
“Help me!”
Too late…

Yes, Jelena, you are not ready for the darkness that is coming, it will consume you.... Jedi! ( Can I roleplay the fears of Jedi and temptation of Darkside? I just can`t stop myself from making evil comments, help!)

Nah it's just that two stories is hard enough to follow as it is
wiv another person who's not even related (most likely) commenting on things it will not help

Okay, sorry, I will post comments in General Discussion then!
Those exam sessions always make me a bit mentally unstable.

"You had best know the situation first," says Windu.
"Four days ago, the Cult launched a well-planned attack on a civilian liner known as the Orion Phoenix. What was unusual about the attack, other than it being on a cruise liner when the Cult normally attacks cargo vessels, was that the Phoenix was one of a new generation of liners in the area, where an attempt has been made to increase security lately. It was carrying a very large and well-trained security compliment. They seemed to deliberately choose this target regardless. Sadly the security proved unable to prevail. The ship was taken and everyone on board was slaughtered.
"Sadly, that area of space has long had to put up with such instances, once or twice a year. This attack, however, was the third in as many weeks."

'So for some reason they have upped the number of attacks in the last weeks and they also started targetting cruise liners -specificly one that was pretty well defended- Was it Transporting anything or anyone of value. I know they normally only care about technology and not about people"

"This is indeed a mysterious part of the situation. The ship was not caryying anything of particular value, though the local authorities have more details.
"Charaeus has always been a delicate situation, Marcus, Obviously, in a perfect situation they would have been extinguihsed centuries ago- but they live outside the Republic where we have no jurisidction. To take them out requires Senatorial approcal to what would effectively be an invasion of another world- a declaration of war. The Senate is exceptionally loathe to do such things, and disturbingly callous to the fate of those on the border worlds. The Cult may be vicious but they are not stupid, they knew just how far they could push with their occasional raids into Republican space and get away with it.
"Now, indeed, things have changed, They have abandoned all caution, and these attacks amount to virtual invasion of the Republic! So now, the Senatorial position has been changed, and we have a mandate to take action.
"You re jot expected to destroy the entire Cult oyurself, Marcus- it occupites a world, after all. But the worlds there have long called for help from the Order and we can now give it. Co-orindate local security and see what you can do to help. Your contact is on the planet Alzarious, largest and most capable of the worlds in the area.
Your mission is broad- stop the Cult attacks. We suspect force will be a necessary part of this operation, but do it in the way that will lead to the least amount of outright warfare. If you can convince the cult leaders to desist, by showing them how serious you are about defending the area, do so. If worse comes to the worse... things are left to your discretion, Marcus. They are attacking the Republic. Eliminate the Cult leaders if you must."

"She was off-duty, visiting friends. There was no particular reason for anyone to know, but on the other hand she would have had to check in to the flight with her lightsabre; she would have had no reason to keep things secret.
"Of course, that there was a Jedi on board should have been the stroke of luck that saved the liner. We are... unclear on what went wrong."
