The library, then. It takes up a large portion of the upper level, but it's not huge, by objective standards. It is, however, preposterously dense, with barely enough room to manoeuvre between shelf after shelf of tightly compacted ancient books and data records, mostly charting the history of the Serpent.What's the plan?
The closest I could get was this...
And then the list of things he couldn't search for.
hmm..i've been searchin back. i can't seem to find something concrete. you said they don't know what it is for or how it was got..and they don have anything on the security systems around it.

unknown materials...that means it is impossible to reproduce it *as composition at least). does it say anything about how one might tell it appart visually from that?...material or colour...something
"He doesn't listen to me!" says Yago.
And that's not going to work. Mika's not leaving and you need more direct help than that, Rianna... especially with your grip loosening.

It would be very difficult to reproduce it, Takuan, yes.
Looking into that, you do find this. Legend has it that Siva created a duplicate of the tablet, which he swapped with the one he stole so as to deceive the Sith about the theft. He got a hunk of rare mineral rock hacked out to look the part. But the big problem was the way that the writing on the tablets only appears when a force sensitive touches its back. Siva had the back of the fake coated with a substance that biologically reacted to the proximity of midi-chlorians, and that triggered a luminiscent appearance of the letters he had faked on the front. It wasn't perfect but he didn't need it to be.
Now, say these fakes in the vault are made on the same principle... you reckon it wouldn't be as efficient as the Sith original, so the writing would be slower to appear if you looked for it. That's no good though, the trap activates on touch. Still, that is a decisive difference between original and fake.
Only what you have seen.
And you know what, Tanic? This place DOES have the original construction schematics of the citadel. Which will be DAMN useful, if you can remember them...
... and although they are a little late in the day, they do have the locations of the secret passages you can use to circumvent all the stairways!
Big score for Ranic...
The tablet chamber schematics were separate- but Rianna has them anyway.
I am afraid you are not in a position to help Rianna, Tanic.
Galder- you are buying stuff for the grab. If people had thought about it a bit more you would have gotten equipment for this bit as well, but ah well! Mind you, no, that's not a good plan- force not recommended.
