USH'S GAME EPISODE V- 'MAUSOLEUM'- LIGHT SIDE AREA

Sensing danger Raon wakes up and follows Xeth to room U or therabouts

*Kosta heads in the direction that his senses guide him. He keeps a firm grip on his saber hilt.*

"Tread lightly." *He whispers to himself*

Kellan dropped the lumination device and pulled her lightsabre in the same motion. She swung the blade to deflect the unexpected laser fire and ran forward, toward the source.

You deflect the bolts easily. Whoever just fired at you has run back down the corridor...

Kellan continued running, her still-ignited blade held tightly. "Stop !" she shouted.

The presence continues to run. It turns right at the t-junction of the corridor you are going down, and waits there for you- still radiating extreme fear...

Kellan sensed her attacker had stopped and slowed her pace. She filtered the fear through layers of the Force, trying to determine the source and what matter of being was behind it.

Human or human-like, you are sure of it, and flooded with terror.

"I'm not going to hurt you," Kellan called out in more gentle tone. She used the Force to carry the conviction of her words and lowered her sabre slightly, but not her guard.

It's a confused mind, it id sifficult to do much with without seeing it... you draw closer.

A shadow jumps out in the gloom in front of you, gun raised at your head...

Her sabre already low, Kellan swung easily in an upward arc, to disarm her unseen attacker.

Your sabre cuts easily though his weapon.

It is a thin, pale looking man. He crumples to the ground and bursts out crying.

"Don't... please..." he cries.

Sensing no other immediate danger, Kellan deactivated her sabre. "I told you I wouldn't hurt you," she reinerated to the sobbing man. She moved down to one knee to face him. "You forced me to defend myself. Who are you ? What are you doing here ?"

He kind of jerks back away from you when you touch him.

"No more!" he says. "Kill me now!"

"Calm down," she urged him. "I'm certainly not going to kill you. I am Jedi Master Kellan Gundark. Whoever was inhabiting this place before is gone. You have nothing to fear now. Please tell me who you are and why you are here."

"Jedi?" the man says. "no... no... it's a trick!"

Kellan once again brought the power of the Force into her words, trying to convince the poor man of her honesty. "There's no trick. You are safe now. No one is going to hurt you, I promise."

He is breathing, heavily, over and over and over.

"Really?" he says, with moist eyes.

he then collapses onto your shoulders.

The rest of you can find Gundy- though if you want to explore more of the caves you will have to wait a little bit...

Kellan continued speaking in a soothing voice. "How did you come to be here ? Why are you so afraid ?"
