USH'S ORIGINAL TRILOGY GAME EPISODE I 'LANZAR'- Imperial Thread

Vader telling everyone to meet him in the flagship conference room immediately overrides all that.

As for finding out about the Sith- there's not really much around to be found, as ever. Lacking the skill Jedi Lore, I can tell you little.

Okay, Commisar is waiting then, wondering what the Sith Lord is planning. He will speak with his Aide:

"It isn`t good Sareitha, I still need to spend time in the city. Frankly, I think I will take you with me next time, at least you could keep this meddling fool Galahad occupied. I am confident that Commision and Drakkon will have to react to blockade being legalized, it should give me the opening I need. I really have to get some valuable information from Sartorus, and I I want to weaken Andran`s influence on Drakkon.... he likely is angry with his inability to stop us using legal means. And he seems to be much wiser than other Osokans, I am sure I could provoke others more easily into doing something foolish, we need to overcome those barriers Andran and Drakkon so carefully crafted. Also I still wonder about Vader`s plans... perhaps his force insight could help.

I would like to hear your opinion on your situation as well, darling. I know you are as tired as I am, but we cannot lower our guard and focus. Two more days, and we should sleep together in Lanzar City.... if it is anything still left of it, of course." -He finishes with dark grin.

Edit: So I don`t know that Palpatine is Sith Master?

And flying!

Oh, people know Vader as a Lord of the Sith, so word has kinda got around; just not everyone is sure what it means.

It has been a thousand years, after all, since anything Sithly has been major news.

Of course, I was asking about Palpatine, not Vader.

Well, don`t they teach about Sith in history classes across the Galaxy? I assume basic history is based on Savoir-faire skil....

In our world most people know who Alexander the Great was, and Sith should inspire even more curiosity.

It's ancient history, not basic, and it depends where you go- one of the Senators mentioned this to you earlier. But much of it is hearsay and nonsense.

And the point is that if everyone knows it about Vader it doesn't take much of a step to bring the Emperor in on the deal.

And it seems my Aide doesn`t have anything to comment on concerning my issues? Perhaps it not nice she is having an affair with boss, but I hope I was able to choose someone intelligent as personal assistant.

It'll have to wait. Vader is gathering everyone into the Conference room now.

CONFERENCE ROOM OF CERTAIN DOOM

Vader is presiding along with all senior officers and their Aides, and also the Commissar, seated to the far side and apparently not immune from Vader's fury.

Gaze of death is activated, but it has not fixed on anyone yet.

Vader has a simple question- what the hell went wrong, and whose fault is it? First to speak takes a big risk but might steer things.

"Apparently a giant dinosaur attacked the camp. It seems General Lomax was completely surprised, and unable to react quickly enough to stop the chaos. It would be complete slaughter if our AT-AT`s didn`t engage the beast." -Commisar speaks casually, drinking some coffee. He doesn`t seem affected by Vader much, or at least he doesn`t show his emotions.

"But not everything went so bad, at other fronts at least. We finally have solid justification for the blockade."

Janthis follows Coll's order leaving the camp to the rest ofthe troops. Coming in at Coll's side Janthis and will take a seat next to Coll

Pretty much get inside, have a look around.

Well, then it's not going anywhere because they won't let you in, and if you aren't looking for anything in particular it is a waste of time.

Vader is just breathing away and waiting for anyone else to speak.

Lyle, do not disappoint me.... We already have some amount of information from earlier visits. I think good chance to try to abduct Drakkon would be during the following night, as everybody would be resting before the incoming battle. I am sure it is going to be very difficult, but doing it would mean almost victory, even more on the military than political front. I am not sure Lodge Captains could unite to provide the coherent defense. Though I wonder if diffrent Lodges would battle in full cohesion anyway. Arvus, Rylis, you should help Lyle if he has troubles.

Did our Stormtroopers in the city located some Lodges or defence points, Ush?

And is there anything in Andran`s agreement concerning Hunting Guilds? As I remember those are supposed to be illegal, right?

The Hunting Guilds were legalised some two decades ago.

And no, the troopers are just wandering around.

But there were good reasons to make them illegal in first place.... As i remember Osokans created enough strife that it warranted a long intervention from 200 Jedi, which I suppose is something very rare in Republic`s history. Now, isn`t the recent bloody uprising an indication that making Guilds illegal was a good idea. Could I raise this point?

So they have no orders to check city`s defences? Am I supposed to do everything myself now?

You could, though it might be pointed out to you that it was the Emperor who legalised them, back in his days as Chancellor. Saying the jedi were right and Palpatine was wrong probably won't go down well in some areas.

Well, as I see it Emperor gave them the chance to find their place in galactic order, and they wasted it. This is why extreme measures are necessary. Would such reasoning be better?

Coll remains absolutely silent. He has angered Vader already, he does not wish to say something that would send the Dark Lord over the edge.
