I also, wouldn't mind entertaining the lady for a while, if she so chooses. I would just wish to make sure that we don't tell her anything that we don't want to tell her, in specific the Briande and Kuylen situations. If we get ... lets say....Gallador's word, that he's not going to blabber it out, I am all for it. It might be a problem with our bad liars though.
Gallador is pretty good liar and won`t tell her about Kuylen with others watching him because he doesn`t want to die by Galder`s hand I quess.....
Of course, Lady won`t give anything valuable for free, so we could see how it goes. However, even having a general talk could reveal much about her beliefs and way she views the Force, for example, and it interests Gallador.
By the way, Gallador isn`t an idiot, and so far Lady didn`t make any good pitch for him, so it isn`t like he is going to become her slave for nothing. Rand he knows, and gets along fine.
"Well, surely this knowledge gives you power over us, My Lady? Of course, not all of us are clueless, I think I know what you seek. Secrets from the times of Demmos, Revan, Malphas, or even older.... do you really think you can suceed where the Sith failed? Perhaps both the Jedi and Sith were wrong? I prefer to consider the Force beyond the simplistic division of Light and Dark Side."
"Well, these colleques of mine are only reason I am alive, Lady Adelmo, so you should understand my hesitation. Farewell, then."
(Well, maybe I should have went with my idea to start fire as a distraction).
Gallador will go to his room and check his books, trying to find anything more on the subjects that interest him.
The youngest girl is waiting for Adelmo halfway down the mountain. her stones scatter as Adelmo walked past.
"They're hiding their knowledge of Kuylen," says the girl.
"I rather thought they would..." says Adelmo.

Adelmo's departure brings to an end your crazy exciting events for this story, and indeed for this year (both in-game and probably out-game too).
Your base is restored to some modicum of function as a result of the raid on Newhaven. The pirares do not return- some months later you confirm that the entire pirate fleet has left the sector, to the surprise of many. The loss of his power base and failure to gain mass support among the tribes means that Ogros' rebellion does not amount to anything- at least, not yet.
And so time passes for you guys, at which point we can introduce a bonus option for Dark Siders that is not open to Light Side players. One way or another, Light Side players tend to be very busy in the time period berween stories, whether on official Jedi business or pursuing their own vendettas (a la the Renegades).
Not you guys though- you've got bugger all to do. Epireus offers you enough resources to live on; you don't need to work for a living (so long as the Epireans remain under your control). No-one will make you do anything, nor are you obliged to do anything, Indeed, you can just hang around growing fat until the next crisis time hits, if you want.
I assume, however, that at least several of you do not want this. In fact a number of you have various priorities and issues you have been discussing. Well- you have a year in which to get these things done. Whenever we come to a significant period of time passing in the storyline, the Dark Siders get a 'downtime' opportunity in which to pursue projects in the meantime.
For reasons of structure and also to represent that not everything you do works out, I will limit each charatcer to one major project that you wish to work on. Your project will involve making relevant rolls so make sure you have a good skill set for it. Relevant Merits will greatly help some things also.
Multiple people can work on the same project to combine results, if that is useful.
This is an important opportuntiy to get a lead on the Jedi, btw, who spend this year arsing around on the borders of the Damagran Confederacy looking for pirates.
(Not that you hear that news, though if Galder did he might join in. That entire pirate clan betrayed him once. What is it with you and pirates, Galder? Turns out the Damagran authorites have been hopeless at wiping those pirates out. Say what you like about Faylar, at least he was decisive).
Anyway, point is, the Jedi are not going to get in on the central plotline yet- but when they do, they have the advantage of having massive resources to call on to try and clue them in. Your half--functioning base doesn't compare so make the most of your headstart.
