USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE V (LIGHT SIDE)- Harmony

Hmm, what do our Padawans think?

(I've been watching this, but haven't had much to say until it was made clear that we must choose A or B. Strictly from a character point of view, I must have Andro choose Defence. The drawing is clearly an invasion to him. Those are warships in attack/blockade formation. Traders would line up to get in, not surround the planet in such an orderly fashion. And honestly, joining the Republic gets them what? The best help they'll likely recieve is transport for the refugees, if there are any. Andro will share these thoughts with the others.
Purely from a player perspective, I also assume it's an invasion. I figure they're totally screwed any way we go.)

No-one is suggesting they join the Republic!

Sunda thinks they should fight. Argo is stuck trying to work it out as a puzzle. Essalin is not dsure what defiance would gain them. D'an agrees with Vera; he thinks it's not about practicality but who and what you are as a culture.

(Oh. Must have mixed my own thoughts in there accidentally. Still, the rest of ym reasoning stands. It's an invasion, not friendly. Time to prepare!)

Well, I'm going to press Sunda on it a bit more, and ask him why they should fight.

Same reasons as Andro.

Ok, well, it is a split decision but the vote has gone to- become more open!

At least we came to a decision! Somewhat...

I do hope there isn't any negative penalties for picking invasion, like that was the 'un-jedi like' option and people who picked it should be wary. 😛

So are we required to make at pitch to the Assembly or will they just accept our majority vote?

Nope, if that is the advice of the Jedi, that is how it goes! Thea is pleased, as that is how she wanted it anyway. The Assembly has made its decision!

And wit that, guys, it is about time you were leaving!

Wentar is happy for the people of Thalos when becoming more open is decided upon, he hopes that he is wrong with his belief of invasion.

"Thank you for your hospitality Lady Thea and for everything you've done for us ever since we arrived," Wentar says with a bow to the Lady. "I hope you do well in your running for Consul, but we must leave now it seems...

"Perhaps we will return if we have time in the future, I am interested in seeing more of Thalos. Especially under less hostile circumstances," he adds with a grin.

To the ships! We really should answer those messages that have been sitting on them for god knows how long.

Gallagher too is pleased with the outcome.

"If it weren't for you, our time here would have been very short," Gallagher says. "And not in a way with good results. I will be sure to check back."

Gallagher asks D'an how he feels about the whole experience with Thalos.

D'an thinks it is fascinating- though more for what remains unknown than what you discovered.

"Hasn't helped us find Katai either, has it?"

Back to your ships, then?

Seems like it.

I'm sure there are a lot more questions we have about Thalos but todays not the time. We're overdue on reporting what we've found out so far and those messages on our ships could be important.

So yeah, back to the ships!

Edit: Unless Thea has anything more she wants to say to us.

Could it be possible to get some general works with us? Like stuff about their history (specifically the Lady's and the recent wars)?

Just to get some extra info on the stuff. Perhaps it can later on be "ingame proof" if I can get a skill or whatever.

Well lets think about what we learned.
We did learn a lot about Adelmo and her motivations. We learned who Kara actually was, we learned what the SnK is, sort of, but we did get involved in that plotline.
Not bad for what was essentially an ambush.

Besides, the other jedi have been working on the tracking Adelmo and Katal down route.

Not that we know yet. Handy, though.

Gallagher reminds his student that we learned more of who we are dealing with. Aside from our fights with katai, we knew nothing of her or Adelmo.

And we seem to know what Adelmo is after.

"The Syphar n kalar... I have little idea about what it is, but something makes me dread it," Gallagher says to D'an. "Research is needed."

Forgot to mention I was busy for the weekend...

-

Back to your ships then, folks, and ready to leave!

Which is good- as there is a bunch of messages waiting for you there about Kara Katai... who has been found.

"Perhaps we should have returned to the ships sooner," Wentar mutters reading the message.

What does the message actually say? I assume it says where she was found. It's from the Council, yes?

It's actually a series of messages sent as the situation progressed.

The Bureau's security checks came up trumps- they got a visual of Kara Katai boarding a freighter embarked to the planet Mebark, a great transport hub on the Mid-Rim.
