STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- The Cursed Swarm

Started by REXXXX35 pages

You are not finding a signal to hail except that cruiser in orbit.

OK - well in that case, stay well above the trees, be mindful of approaching obstacles, and head to the place where the signal is emitted from. Then find a suitable landing place!

You come over the rise and upon a ghastly scene- a medium-sized village that has been completely scorched, leaving only charred remnants of its buildings. Now that you are upon it, you sense death in this place... but you do not see any bodies. Curious.

You do see a bulk freighter landed on the far side of the village, though!

Fly past the freighter first, if it seems OK then land nearby and get out to investigate.

Nobody outside the freighter, seems like it is clear!

You set down in the clearing and emerge into the damp misty air of Boll-Gar. As mentioned, the ship is a bulk freighter and it dominates much of your immediate view. You judge that it needs a small crew to operate.

Beyond the clearing, to your left, is the destroyed village. The rest is very dense rain forest.

Iffa begins by carefully searching the freighter

The bulk freighter is locked up tight!

OK, check the village. I will perhaps try and break in later.

The village proves to be an awful place. Though you do not find any bodies, you can sense that much dying happened here. Someone swept through the city with laser weapons and blew up pretty much everything.

The lack of bodies disturbs you considering the stink of death that hangs about this place. And something else. You sense a great deal of life but do not see it.

"Hello?" calls Iffa, "anyone there? Hello? Show yourself!"

There is no answer.

Any sign of the distress signal? Is it coming from the freighter? Of so
Try and gain entry.

Yes, the freighter is the source of the emergency signal.

How is your Fix-It score?

Nothing I'm afraid!

Well, the doors are locked securely and hotwiring is not an option for you.

Can I burn the lock through with my lightsabre?

You certain can! Going for it?

Yup!

You start to push your lightsaber through the door. After a moment, something starts to push back.

Remove the sabre, knock and shout 'Hello?'

Can I sense anyone inside?
