"Sure. Better move across quickly though," Rylis says with a shrug. "Anything special about the controls I should know?"

"Not a thing," the stranger says.
"Watch for zombies," the cyborg says.

How far off are the zombies? About how much time does Rylis have to flip the controls?

You don't see any around here. You have to turn the bridge on so that it lowers, let your friends cross, and then turn it off so that it raises.

And are they the sort of controls were Rylis will have to hold them in place while the bridge lowers, or would she be able to just hit the button and take off to lower the bridge once the speeder is across?

Hit the button one way and hit the button the other, the stranger says.

Wooo.
Rylis will hit the button to lower the bridge as soon as they're ready to cross, then, and then raise the bridge the moment they're across.

You head into the station and do just that. The controls are labeled and simple, and soon the drawbridge is lowering smoothly.
On the speeder, the stranger guns it and gets the speeder moving up the drawbridge before it has finished lowering. It jumps over the small gap and lands on the other end of the bridge before they connect fully, and he is across the great expanse of lake in no time.
Leaving Rylis to begin raising the bridge! That leaves her separated from the others in the speeder, of course.

"I think I played a holo game like this once..." Rhys groans from his position.

Soon as the bridge is going up and it seems there are no problems, Rylis is going to take off, jet-packing her way out of there and back to the speeder.

"I never had time for holo-games," the stranger comments, bringing the speeder to a halt on the other end of the bridge. "I had too much to do, when I was young. Holo-games that did not serve a purpose were set aside."
Rylis makes for the safety railing ringing around Narpest as the bridge begins to raise again, and rather gracefully jets up and away from the city and over the water. The water actually looks kind of bad, too frothy for a lake.
Sadly, jetting across to the lake's shore uses up much of your jetpack fuel. It will need to be replenished before you can use it again.
Once on the other side, the stranger beckons you to enter the speeder.
"We are going somewhere safe," he says. "The remnants of the military have set up a refugee camp there."

"And you're sure it's safe there?" Rylis comments, settling back into the speeder. "And is it possible to resupply, I need more fuel for this thing and I've a feeling it'll come in handy again."

"Quite sure," the stranger says. "And we'll see if the Imperial soldiers will be able to help you there. I can imagine that it's usefulness is unlimited."
The speeder takes off again, moving down a road leading away from Narpest. It carries on until it reaches a small outpost nestled into the jungle. The road ends with it. An electrified fence surrounds the place, and it is patrolled by stormtroopers with blasters and an AT-ST.

Well, they've certainly secured this place tight...

The outpost itself is only a single structure, a squat military building not unlike the one seen in ROTJ, though with a comm array and sensors placed atop the bunker. What fills most of the outpost are tents of refugees, people who made it out of Narpest before the virus or its victims got them. Stormtroopers are patrolling these tents.
The stranger stops his landspeeder and the stormtroopers disembark.
"See to it that the water rationing goes smoothly," the stranger says. "I will return. Bring us some medical supplies and water rations, and we will be on our way."
The stormtroopers give a curt nod, then disperse to do as asked.
Rhys- your wound still hurts, but is now starting to itch.

"Looks like you have things well-organized here," Rylis comments, looking over the camp. Though, as ever, she's not entirely comfortable with all of the Stormtroopers around. "Now what?"

Rhys resists the urge to scratch. How well can he move around?

Rhys is feeling a bit better, though woozy. You can sit up and talk until you get medical attention.
"We must hold palaver," the stranger says. "I have need of talented hands such as yours. Stormtroopers are good in numbers but not for individual tasks, and Jarko is a might bit too... blunt."
Jarko, the cyborg, does not acknowledge the comment.

"And what is that, exactly?" Rylis asks.

"To palaver is to hold a conversation," the stranger explains.
The stormtroopers return with medical supplies and water for you, and the stranger gets the speeder moving again, to the other side of the outpost.
