USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE IV (JEDI)- Purity

"And now us," Jelena says, perturbed. "I shall trust in the Force to guide us out of this cycle of disturbing events intact. Perhaps it will be down to us to end this trail of sorrow that Sienar has sewn about him, if he is indeed Kalik."

Jelena will also ask about Gallador, as she feels she may have heard of him before. She wants to know if he is at all relevant to the situation with Sienar, other than his engagement with Scovione on Vataan.

Not that he knows of. But as he says, his fall was... unexpected.

"How so?"

That sort of thing is unusual in general. It's not worth going tino too much detail; it is simply that Scovione has felt there has been a dark cloud hanging around aspects of his life for some time. So be wary.

Well there, the stories are all done now....

And now we know everything we need to know about Sienar to start with! Hoorah!

Andro will probably want to talk to Master Tiin about stuff (Gallagher, the Dark Side, etc.) but Jelena is going to hold off talking to Master Besh until a later point.

And hopefully we shall receive visions!

Yea, I think I still have Dreams, so If its ok I will use it.

Well, we'll see!

Gallagher is settling down for the night as Sienar meets a man you have not seen before; you can see him far down below on a ower level (a lot of balconies in this place), a man with a briefcase and a blue suit.

I'll handle any Master conferences now. Who is meeting whom and to what end? What advice do you want?

Andro wishes to speak with Master Sasee Tinn (Mentor). He's conflicted about his feelings regarding the upcomming mission, and seeks to balance his thoughts with Master Tinn. Andro feels he has a decision to make, but that no matter what he chooses it feels wrong.

Well, for a start, Tinn would like you to lay out what you feel the decision is.

Idea for Roan, perhaps get in touch with CorSec to get advice on how to carry out a murder investigation like this one.

Can Gallagher overhear what it is this blue-suited man and Sienar are discussing? It is not Twain?

Nope. And nope.

"Master Tinn, I'm torn by my conscience. I have a duty to obey the will of the Council, and I am truly necessary on this investigation. But I also feel a duty to save Gallagher and stop Seinar." Andro pauses, "Master, I am considering my own compromise between my two consciences. I am planning to assist the mission, providing whatever I can to get the mission well on it's way. What I'm considering is taking my leave when it becomes clear Roan and Jelena can handle things without me. I will then strike out to rescue Gallagher. I understand this is a controversial decision, and I seek any advice you can give me to guide my thoughts on the matter."

Master Tinn asks what you feel is going to happen. Do you envision Gallagher locked up in the Evil Overlord's lair, awaiting a hero to jump the moat, overcomne the guards, climb the tallest tower and swing out on a rope?

"You may find the barriers that seperate you from Gallagher are not those that the combat arts of the Jedi are designed to overcome."

"But that's just it, Master Tinn. Even Master Yoda seems to feel that Gallagher is in danger of being overcome by Seinar's plotting. Doesn't it seem fair to say that the longer we leave Gallagher in Seinar's grasp, the harder it will be.....The more likely that Gallagher will turn to the Dark Side? I've never wanted to admit that he could, but he is younger even than me, knows his family, and is almost certainly about to find out that he is in the company of the man who tried to destroy it, who killed his sister!" He sighs, "I know it would be foolish to rush in alone, I'm no match for that monster by myself. But we must get to Gallagher before he is lost to us. I, at least, owe him that, Master."

"And tell him what? That he shouldn't turn to the Dark Side? This has probably already occurred to him, young Andro.

"I still feel you may not appreciate the scale of the problem. What if Gallagher does not wish to go with you?"

"If that is the case, then I would already be too late. Which was my fear from the beginning. I know I need the others. And I know it's the politics of the situation that prevents us from going directly to Seinar. I feel we are risking Gallagher by appeasing the beaurocrats, the very ones who would not take the word of a Jedi as 'sufficient evidence'." Andro straightens. "Very well, Master. I see that I must get that evidence, I probab;y saw it all along. I resent the politics that put the Jedi in this position, though. I now only ask that I may present the evidence to the beaurocrats myself, so that they can see the word of a Jedi is truth." He bows, "Thank you, Master."

"Andro," he calls after you. "Do have some faith in the Council. They want Gallagher back as much as anyone. Please don't upset their plan with rash actions! But... do stay in touch with me, if you need help."

Gallagher frowns at the men discussing business below him, then decides maybe he should get closer up to listen in.

Are Gallagher's doors unlocked? Or would he be able to jump down a few balconeys quietly to get closer?

Andro turns, "I'm sorry, Master. I do have faith in the Council, but not the politicians. I will follow the mission, as it has been given to us, to it's conclusion. And if that conclusion does not lie where I hope, we shall have to talk again, as we did today, before I take any rash actions. Thank you once again for balancing my conscience with my duty. Good day Master, and May the Force be with You."

(Ok, I'm ready when everyone else is.)

Jelena too. She is going to save her discussion with her Mentor until a later point.
