STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- The White Tower of Halloy

'A tour would be helpful, yes thank you.' Denzral nodded.

The style of this dark, dank place is similar to the interior of Alcatraz. Cells are side-by-side on either side of a long corridor on two levels. You've come out on the top floor through a light security checkpoint manned by a Knight.

The place is surprisingly small- it can only hold about a hundred prisoners.

It also appears that there are no bars on any of the cells.

'I assume the cells are equipped with containment fields in the stead of bars.'

"Yes, indeed," says the King. He approaches the nearest cell- empty- and waves his hand through the air. It hits something solid and there is a ripple that moves outward from his hand. "Non-lethal, as is most of our technology for suppression and detainment."

"It seems that everything here has been build to be as no lethal as possible; I commend you. Are you holding any prisoners at the moment?" Can I search for the girls presence with the force?

Oh my! Jumpstarting this then...

-

"A few," the King says. "Dissidents who are to be sent off-world, returned to where they came from."

The King shows you to whom he is referring to- most are petty criminals that have crossed a line somewhere. Others are more violent. None really say anything as you pass.

You wonder why you weren't brought here, Denzral. You were apprehended by the King's forces and... thrown out into the desert somewhere?

How much time has passed since I woke in the desert?
Are there cells further down, or are we at a dead end?

This appears to be the only chamber. But you sense otherwise. You cannot place it, but there is something bothering you about this chamber.

It has been a day or so, I believe.

-

"Please, let me out," says one of the prisoners as you pass them. "I've done nothing wrong!"

The King ignores them and continues walking about.

"Thank-you for the tour your excellency, it has been most interesting." Denzral looks at the prisoner, and gives a slight nod towards the far wall at the end. A sort of unasked question.

-

I roll perception, looking for possible seams that indicate a secret entrance, or panels, fake wiring, ect.

It would take more than a quick glance to see if anything like that is in here.

The prisoner doesn't understand. He is a frail reptilian alien with nervous beady eyes, pacing in his cell.

"I sense there is more to this area than meets the eye." I say aloud, studying the king intently.

The King turns to face you.

"What do you mean?" he asks, inquisitively.

"This place may not be as it first physically appears, I'm sensing something not quite correct about this area, perhaps sealed off chambers. Is this the final chamber? If so, may I look around more intently?" denzral looks at the King, wondering whether or not to trust the ruler of this land, but he hadn't sensed any deception from him.

"Uh, sure," the King says. "I don't think you'll find anything but it couldn't hurt anything. Yes, this is the only room of the detention area."

What is Denzral going to look for?

Any indication that may reveal a hidden panel of some kind. Or a hidden elevator. Is my droid with me?

Yes he is.

How is your Observation?

"Soapy, do a resonance scan of the area, see if you can detect anything?"

Observation: 2
Perception: 4

Soapy starts running his scan while you inspect the prison.

Where are you looking?

Middle of the room first, if nothing is found moving to the far wall, to either side. Looking for disturbed dust, something that might indicate recent passage, anything out of place or odd.

Hmm... you can impressed with how clean they keep this dungeon, aside from the dampness in here. The sides of the room are dominated by prison cells. The far wall shows no signs of anything like a sliding wall or anything of that sort.
