I clip his saber to my belt.
"No, now it is time for you to learn your lesson. I won't always be here to bail you out. You need to learn to understand why it is I tell you to do certain things. You must control your impulses."
I gesture to the back seat of the speeder.
"Get in."
I'll hop into the passenger side, aiming for Gabriel to take us to the marketplace.

"Yes, Master," grumbles Sunda before hopping in. Once you are in yourself, Gabriel starts the speeder and makes for the Marketplace.

The Marketplace is not much different than the rest of the colony, the shabby tents and scrap-metal huts all crowded close together. You are pretty sure that the Jenet running shops just live in their shops as well. The only reason you are sure you are in the Marketplace is because there is an open grassy field that the shops are encircled around. Jenet are milling about on the green socializing.

Plus, Gabriel tells you.

"Here we are... now... where do we begin?" Gabriel asks.

I'd like to first do a sense/observation scan, to see if anything particular stands out, being super illegal or something.

You open your senses up to the Marketplace as Gabriel does a loop around the grassy field.

There is a lot of hustle and bustle going on. With so many people around it is difficult to sense anything specific.

Your Observation check (three successes on five dice) turns up a little more. There seems to be a part of the Marketplace that isn't quite as active as the rest. Everywhere else, people are bartering and trading. This one section- a set of tents- looks closed.

That sounds like our place, I'll wait until Gabriel gets back, so I can find out what he saw, and then probably head over there.

You are with Gabriel! He notices it as well.

"That looks strange at this time of day," Gabriel says. "Let's go have a look..."

He drives the speeder through the busy path slowly, the Jenet people grudgingly getting out of your way. He comes to a halt in front of the closed, darkened tents.

You feel uneasy, Roan.

Uh oh...
I will move carefully, keeping my senses open.

"Are we going in?" Gabriel asks.

"You and Sunda stay here. I'f I'm not back in 5 minutes, come in after me."

"Okay," Gabriel says. Sunda says nothing, continuing to sulk.

You step out of the speeder and are confronted with the tents. They are clumped together in no particular fashion. How do you want to do this?

And I get no particular feeling about any of them?

If so, I will enter the one closest to where we parked the speeder.

No... your senses aren't going off.

You go into the first tent. Empty!

Well, I'll move into the next one.

Nothing in that tent, either.

You feel cold.

Hmm, thats not good. Can I sense where its coming from? Or is it a force-tingly thing?

The last time you felt this was in the Mausoleum of Demnos... it is the Dark Side clouding your senses. You feel numb and blind when you try to reach out with the Force.

You will have to continue your search mundanely.

Oh, thats bad....
Well, I'll keep looking, being aware and cautious of the Dark Side Presense.

Observation roll... you notice that one of the tents is dimly lighted, in the middle row.

Alright, well I'll approach that one.

You enter the tent.

There is a CorSec landspeeder in this one! And it has been torn to pieces by blasterfire. It looks like it has been dismantled for parts as well.

There is a man slumped against the steering wheel.
