It's quite likely - previous visions that Rianna's had involved pretty big and important things that involved her personally. I doubt things that happened on Bespin would have had quite the impact they had on her, had she been forewarned of what he was up to. If the Force had been trying to give her a glimpse he definitely would have wanted to keep that from happening.

Would knowing what was to occur on Bespin have changed anything for Rianna?

In some ways it'd be likely, yeah. Knowing what was going to happen would have made things less of a surprise for her, she would have been less likely to trust Zalt (and may have actually met with the Administrator when he wanted to see her), and quite possibly would not have wound up in the situation at the end where she decided to try and run and then everything went to hell from there.

On the other hand, Rianna tends to dwell on things and is fairly fearful and paranoid, and visions disturb her greatly...so who knows. Knowing what was going to happen could also make her so worried about it that she'd fail completely at trying to stop it.

Does Rianna believe that things can be prevented if predicted?

Well, she sure doesn't believe that things are set in stone and will always happen a certain way, so to an extent, yes. Not everything can be prevented but many things could be. Visions only show possibilities, after all.

What do you think you could have prevented with foreknowledge?

If she had known to not trust Zalt ahead of time, then the whole mess at the end may very well have been preventable, she thinks...

So you think that Zaltus, Captain of the Wing Guard, is wholly to blame for the murder of two Jedi by your hand?

Heh...no. But she feels like that had unstabilized her far more than it should have. She didn't want to kill either of them, after all.

Myraline's attitude did not help things, either...

So you are saying that Rianna did not want to kill the Jedi, nor did she want the Dark Side?

Of course she didn't! She'd been trying to fight Rand's attempts for ages, had not wanted to fight Ciira or Myraline at all...going to the Dark Side was about the only thing she wanted to avoid more than returning to Coruscant.

Ultimately, she blames Rand; had he not made her so unstable with his machinations, she would not have wound up in a position where she could have fallen.

Also she does not yet believe (or refuses to) that she has turned to the Dark Side.

The problem with that logic is that it is patently untrue; nobody makes you go to the Dark Side, although they can maybe set in place situations where it is more likely for it to happen. But ultimately, you have to want it. Anakin chose the Dark Side because he wanted the power to save Padme. And for an in-game example, Gallagher rejected the Dark Side because, while it would allow him to stop Sienar's famine going that route, it would also turn him into an outlaw.

You make a Willpower roll as your mind tries to reject the fact that you have fallen to the Dark Side. Two successes is enough to stay calm... for now.

You are also concerned that your wounds are still hurting.

Still, Rianna fully believes that she would not have fallen had she not been manipulated the way she had been. To her mind, her actions were because she was out of options and had no other way to survive.

That does worry her, quite a bit...

Ah, well, that's the Dark Jedi in you talking. Of course it was someone else's fault!

If only you had some light to examine them.

It'll take quite a bit of doing before Rianna will admit to herself that she's gone to the Dark Side. For now she's convinced that she hasn't done so fully and still wants to fight it...even though she's really in no state to do so.

Yeah, if only...if only she weren't stuck in there at all. That'd be preferable...

Indeed. Especially as a rushing sound has started all around your casket.

Well that has Rianna even more worried...can she sense anything about what's going on outside?

Nope! Your wounds are too troublesome for you to focus correctly. Not to mention you feel as though you have been deprived of most senses! Aside from your own breath, this is the first thing you have heard since you have come to.

And now cold water is trickling into the casket.

Okay now she's going to start panicking pretty soon I think. She's going to try again to see if there's any way to get this damn thing open so she can get out of there before she drowns...

How do you want to search for an opening?

The cold water is starting to fill the casket! It splashes across your back first and dampens your hair. Some of your scratches start to sting.
