Dak slices a small table neatly in half. "You'd best learn that quickly."

"Unfortunately, the Bureau does know that we're still alive, how could you have forgotten that so quickly?"

Ok, in an unusual show of magnaminity, Gallador is going to make his vision public. Is this to everyone or just those at the meeting, Gallador?
May as well make it to everyone, Gallador, as I'm sure the rest of us will find out about it anyway and then be pissed off that you're hiding stuff from us.

"As long as we're here, they can't find us. Unless someone else - y'know, like the Lady - who can operate in the Republic happens to tip them off after we've outlived our usefulness."
"At least that is one thing that we won't have to worry about with the pirates...they wouldn't tell the Republic anything. They can't, they're also criminals."
Azarl is interested in your meeting, Gallador. He is scholarly, like yourself. He does not have any issue with the 'Psycho Brigade' as it is always good to have someone deadlier than you at your side, but he feels their goals are too short term.
So Azarl will attend if he is able.
Azarl also will have said nothing during the meeting with Adelmo.
At the meeting, because he feels threatened by Psycho Brigade. He will does the info to have some advantage over them.
And I actually revealed manifest destiny from the last episode long time ago, you can repost it because it mentions the Lady.
(Gallador lost manifest destiny rules-wise, but this is the first power I will buy with experience. So IC I would say he has it but uses Foresight right now).

"Yet another point that needs to be made. Do we really want to rot on this planet for the rest of our lives. It would be the same as being caged knowing there is a bigger destiny we can fulfill"Xavier brings his foot up and brings it crashing down into a small table breaking it.
Ok, this is Gallador's old vision of the future. It speaks, as many have done, of this path in the future, a choice to be m,ade that not all will agree on- somwething you can be nervous about with the Psycho Brigade.
Note that those of you not at the meeting cannot act upon any of this.

You stand in void.
“Today you receive no vision, but hear prophecy. Hear now that which you seek.”
“In the mystery of the four-limbed Jedi will you find your truth.”
“Once the mystery confronts you, you will be set upon the road of choice.”
“Your choice commands your Destiny. All Destiny can be seized or avoided.”
“Here your future lies in one of two paths.”
“Your choice is of old or new.”
“You face much peril in either. The forces of the one will seek to destroy the other.”
“Your nature seeks the new. Yet your hard-forged means of survival is at risk if you take it.”
“The nature of tradition seeks the old. Yet only the foolish seek tradition unto certain death.”
“The nature of those both old and dead, yet new and vibrant- unknown and unseen- will seek your destruction on either path.”
“And your greatest enemies must play a part.”
“Tread your path with care, lest base treachery be your simple undoing.”
“You wish to know of the Woman with White Hair. She knows of you. She can show your path to power, or be your undoing on a whim. It is too late to avoid her now.”
“And weigh your choice carefully, for there will be no going back.”
“I now stand silent.”
End
"Of course," Xavier says in reply to Dak.
"Still what more can we be waiting on. We have an army of Aliens. We have someone with resources who although exploiting us right now could be used to our advantage sometime in the future. I think now is the best time to start to plan for the future, otherwise we shall be left in dust."
And, as Gallador reveals at the meeting, here is his new vision...
---
You stand in a city under a sunny blue sky in the morning; people walk around going about their business; vehicles and the like fly overhead. It is a peaceful day. Then the bombardment begins.
Half a dozen impacts at first, from orbit, blowing large gashes in the city. Smoke and screams. Then more bombardment, and the landing of troops. A war is beginning, a great, great war.
You see fighting in the streets, people dying, in danger, in need of rescue; a city is crumbling around you. Artillery blows strongpoints apart; army bases and police stations are the first targets. Flyers swoop by with total air superiority, crushing opposition.
Where armed forces gather around fixed air defences, the infantry move in, attacking with fanatical dedication and deadly skill. Jovano commandos! They exterminate opposition with speed.
You see a great fight at one area being claimed by the Jovano where the defenders seemed to have made a stand in great numbers. The Jovano draw back a little from the walls, awaiting heavy equipment- but their commander seems unwilling to wait. Stepping towards the defenders’ positions from three sides are three beings that look almost identical- armoured suits, one red, one green, one blue. In perfect unison, each one draws and ignites a red lightsabre and moves on in.
Soon, your view of the battle is lost in dust and smoke, and you hear a voice speak.
“You seek the remnant of the prize that vanquished Darth Trayas failed to find. If you wish to know as much as possible before you make your choice, then do not kill the one who bears it. And if you cannot keep the prize- ensure you still have the information within.
“Then you may seek to unravel the great mystery of the Sith.”

Information is their weapon, Rianna- don't expect them to give it up.
I am sure we will find some way to find all of this out...

"I suppose. But I do not like having to head back to the Republic so soon after escaping Newhaven..."
Rand had similar vision to Gallador's first.
Gallador will insist that Azarl accepts that they should be careful what they say to Psycho Brigade, as Con and Rand seem to agree.
"They don't respect us, and would kill us if they think we are not useful, so we walk a careful line. Now, Rand had similar vision to mine, and it also mentioned Errant Warrior finding purpose on Desert of Stones. Rand and I think that old and death but new and vibrant part refers to Sith, and old enemies are the Jedi. Lady Adelmo is a puzzle, but she is clearly powerful and dangerous- but could lead us to opportunities. Errant warrior could be Galder."
