STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- Decay

"Thank you. I am sure we will be seeing each other again soon" with a slight bow, Con walks away from Pum'Bet and, having seen enough for now, proceeds to walk back to the room of the Jedi in order to report to his master and hear what he means to do.

It is at this point that, on your way back, the power suddenly goes out. This leaves you in total darkness, since the Museum has no windows and you are deep within the Museum.

Normally you would expect people to start screaming, but the Museum is nearly empty because it is nearly closing.

Do I feel any threat and do I have a source of light (torch or something)?

How far am I from my master and what did I see just before the light went out (are any people close?)

I will draw my lightsabre, too.

Hmm... you sense no danger.

Snap-hiss. Your lightsaber ignites and casts a pale blue pool of light around you... but for all its intensity, lightsabers never seem to be very bright or useful as a flashlight.

Holding your lightsaber in one hand, you can have your glowrod in your other hand. You turn it on...

AHHHHHH! Some giant beast is lunging at you! Oh, wait, no, just an exhibit.

Hoping that no one saw that little incident, Con, turns of his sabre, though keeping it ready in his hand, and, after making sure that everything is alright in this hall, hurryingly proceeds to make his way towards his master.

It takes longer to find the Jedi exhibit in the dark, but you come upon Master Raskae standing with his own glowrod.

"Are you alright?" he asks you.

"Yes, Master. What has happened?"

"I am unsure," he says. "I do not sense trouble, but... there will be. I want you to go find the Captain of the Guard. He may know what is going on. I am going to stay with the exhibit."

Con smiles at the mention of Pum'Bet but then, quickly, proceeds to say "Yes, Master. I already know where about he is", with that Con proceeds to hurry back to the room he found Pum'Bet in.

Do I have a communicator? To talk to my Master and maybe even contact the guards?

Yes, you do.

The room where you left Pum'bet is empty.

Can I contact the guards to and ask them where he is and whether he could contact me? Otherwise can I find any other guard to help me or sense anything?

A guard responds to your hails and requests that you come to the Museum entrance immediately. The guard station is by the entrance.

They also ask if you have seen Pum'bet. When they ask, you begin to feel uneasy.

I will reply that i didn't, then make my way there.

Making your way towards the front of the Museum, your senses suddenly pick up something awful...

Death! Someone has died nearby. But you hear nothing.

"Did you sense that?" Raskae asks via comlink.

"Someone died close by, Master. The guards asked me to come to their station and their Captain is missing. What do you want me to do?"

"Go to the guard. Do not tell them what you have sensed. They will panic."

"Yes, master"

I continue to make my way to the guards then, but will draw my sabre (not ignite it) for good measure.

When you reach the guard, you see that they are hurriedly rushing people out of the Museum and trying to manually close the entrances into the Museum.

"Master Jedi," one of the guards says. "The power grid for the entire area seems to be down."

"Is there an emergency generator? What do you plan to do?"

"There is, but it hasn't come online, which is troubling. Our contingency right now is to close the Museum manually, but we really need that back-up generator or our security measures don't function."
