USH'S GAME EPISODE II- 'REVENGE'. Light Side Area

Sorry, Xeth, but I can't really let you just find thoise places by luck; a small alley is inappropriate for these entrances as wel.

"The only thing I can think of," says Ithrorn, "is these droids that are starting to enter the city. They must be coming FROM the palace. If you can find where the droids are coming frim, you'll have your way in."

Meanwhile, events continue to happen elsewhere.

Yerssot, the droids are leading you away to the stairs downwards. Faylar, worried that Quam has not yet been caught, and getting no response from the Hutt, is calling his bodyguard.

With the bodyguard called, they start streaming out from the living quarters, at roughly the same time Krisha and Arashan head INSIDE, presumably looking for Quam.

So, Gundy Phinney and Mah, there are now a load of Faylar's bodyguards running past you!

''My, what a riot, what's happening here?'', Mah wispered to Gundark.

Third from the last bodyguards to come out of the quarters is Argentis, who will run past you in about seven seconds.

"I suggest that we listen to our friend Ithrorn. Let's look around for where these droids are coming from, and quite possibly where some of them are going back to."

"Lead the way, Lance. I don't have the nack for finding secret entrances." Xeth follows Lance, searching from side to side.

"Neither do I, but we will make the best of what we can."

Lance then walked somewhat ahead of Xeth while searching for some droids on the move.

If we see these droids going north, then maybe they came from somewhere south.

Sounds reasonable to me. In fact, you find a larger congregation of droids at a large main road, some ten minutes to the south. You would lay odds that another way in is somewhere around here.

Lance sees the droids just as the two Jedi round a corner onto the large road.

"Friend Xeth," Lance says, "Follow me, there must be an enterance around here somewhere. We must try to blend into the crowd. No sudden movements."

Gundark was on the verge of using the Force to fling the battle droids into the nearest wall when she spied Argentis. Its now or never, Kellan...

There was, of course, no easy way to do this. She had herself and the young Knights mah and phinney against the ever-growing numbers of Faylar's security team and the damned battle droids now swarming about the place. Challenging odds, to say the least. She used the direct approach, stepping quickly between the uneven line of security streaming past and planted herself in front of Argentis, stopping him with a stiff arm to his shoulder. "I think we need to talk."

"Get away from me!" says Argentis, irritably, twisting out of your grasp with admirable ease.

(Phinney, seeing as you KNOW Argentis, you can tell Gundark that he is the most athletic man you know- he can be VERY twisty!)

Gundark had not gained her rank of Master by being easily intimidated. She spun, reached out a hand again and with a bit of the Force, latched onto his arm with an iron grip. "I said we'll talk, NOW, young Knight."

"Let go of me or I will yell out that you are here!" says Argentis.

Meanwhile, Lance, a grav-transport is coming your way, with one of the droid crates on the back.

Gundark spoke barely above a whisper, her face inches from his. "I have direct orders from the Jedi Council, Argentis. Orders I cannot ignore." She looked into eyes, looked right through him. She softened her voice. "If you have any loyalty left to the Order, allow us to talk privately."

"I can't. Faylar has summoned his bodyguard. I can't be missed. And you people shouldn't be here anyway! It's none of your business!" He wriggles free again and heads for the stairs. He hesitates by the droids.

"Let these people through," he says.

"Roger roger," they reply.

Gundark watched him go, not even attempting to follow. It will have to wait, Kellan..... she told herself. She motioned to mah and phinney. "Lets move," she urged them, heading up the stairs two at a time.

Mah moved along Gundark up the stairs

The droids are finally quiet...

Up on level four, things are a bit more hardcore. It seems to lead to 'storerooms' either side, which is ratjher vague. You would guess this reads 'armoury'.

Security on the stairs up now conists of an auto-sentry turret gun.

The bodyguards head up towards Faylar. Meanwhile, armed men are appearing right down on thr bottom.

Lance notices the grav-transport and he decides it would be a good idea to follow it. Not too closely to cause suspicion, but close enough to not lose site of it.
