"How? Well... adjusting to layman;s terms... it's a very expert area of course... you send out people and probes and enormous lights and you basically just take rock samples to give you an idea of what is going on down there, geologically speaking. You also measure the caves and note the roughness of the rock, because that tells you how the passageways were formed, which gives clues to their stability.

"And define 'minerals'. What you might call a rock could be a mineral; that does not give it value. All it has to be to be a mineral is not be an aggregate. There's always something to be found."

"Alright what we're trying to find out is the route Kuylen would have taken to get through blue to black. Could this be used as a way to plan such a route?"

"As for minerasl I'm thinking along the lines of crystals, or something similar. Something that isn't quite like the normal rock walls up here but maybe something that wouldn't have been worthy enough or there be enough to risk mining that far down?"

"Nope," says Almir to the first. "and the rest of what you said is just gibberish. There's nothing worth noting down there for extraction."

"So this couldn't be used to plan a route. Ok we're not a very geologist obviously but did they make a list of anything they found down there?"

"Yes. Rocks. And minerals."

"Kuylen isn't a treasure hunter," Galder says. "Almir, what does it say about the stability of Blue and Black? I have a theory that Kuylen thought he could escape through there..."

"Stable enough; why?"

Galder isn't sure about the significance of the survey map.

"I was curious if the rock were unstable, maybe it could be collapsed... I dunno. Anything on there about routes and caves?"

"Well, it's all caves. What do you mean by routes?"

"Alright, not the right question. What IS going on down there? What does the survey map actually say about it?"

"Going on? What does that mean? Nothing is going on!"

Just a thought, force users tend to be able to feel the presence of other force users. Using the map could one of our forcey ones be able to get a feel for Kuylen? I'm only asking because there is probably very little reason why he would be masking his force presence down there.

You generally have to know him well, and that's only Galder, and sensing isn;t his thing.

In turn assuming Kuylen is alive down there, which is... unlikely.

"Not what I meant!" Galder snarls. "What do the readings say about Blue and Black? What is their make-up, so on and so forth."

"Like I told your friend," he says, "nothing interesting! Just rocks!"

Galder will throw something in frustration.

"Can it be used to navigate?" Galder asks.

"Define 'navigate'," he says. "Navigation implies a destination."

"Navigate as in find our way around down there. I'm trying to figure out if there is something on there that seems like it would be our destination."

Could Almir possibly point out all the major caves or locations on the map and we could try sensing if any of them stick out to us? Kind of like Vader and Hoth?

"Find your way where? That doesn't make any sense otherwise. It's not a conventional map though, no."

That's pushing it even for the Force I am afraid, it looking like lines on a piece of paper to you.

But someone mentioned the right answer already.
