STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- The White Tower of Halloy

These caves are natural, though metal walkways have been placed down to move about on. With the Knights guiding you, you follow these walkways into some sort of room. The walls and floor and ceiling are all made from a dark metal.

There is an altar on the far end, with two cloaked figures standing before it. One is taller than the other.

"We've brought him," Crutch says from somewhere behind you. He steps past. "He was armed only with this." He produces your lightsaber and holds it out to the taller figure.

"Excellent," he says, turning to face you. It is Lothar.

"Brother." Denz said, facing Tull, echoing how Lothar had referred to him during the meal earlier that day.

Lothar scoffs at that.

"We are hardly brothers," Lothar says. He takes your lightsaber from Crutch and examines it absent-mindedly. "So, you know of the Cult of Necros... meaning you know more than I thought you would. Then again, I suppose the Force would have led you here to me, by one means or another."

"Perhaps." Denzral stated. "I couldn't really tell you, you brought me here yourself." He glanced down at the binders.

"I meant to Halloy," Lothar snips. "In any case, your knowledge of the Cult makes you dangerous, Denzral. I can't have you bringing those sort of things up to the King, as you did at dinner. I don't want it coming to his attention sooner than it needs to."

"I see... I am assuming then that you are man that ordered the murder of my Master (forget name)."

(Kanna Ichinne).

"How astute you are," Lothar says. "Yes, I ordered it. And my assassin performed it. Didn't you, Crutch?"

Crutch says nothing.

"And the raiding of Republic worlds?"

"You ask too many questions," Lothar says. "All of the answers you seek will come in time. But not while you are as you are now."

Denzral took a step backwards, glancing absently around, looking for any available cover.

What is the difficulty of calling the lightsabre and cutting Denz's shackles?

"As I am now..." Denzral repeated while back-pedaling.

It would be a point-spend on Combat Push to try snatching the lightsaber away from Lothar. It would be a Dexterity roll to cut the shackles (difficult to do while shackled) and you would be vulnerable until they're removed.

You see some rocky outcroppings around you...

In any case, you try to step back and the Knights nudge you forward again.

"As a Jedi," Lothar hisses. "Once I have broken you downa and you've proven yourself more worthy of my teachings, I MAY let you in on what is going on here..."

"What happened to the girl, Enah?"

"Oh, she's safe," Lothar says.

"Very well."

"The King, however, is not," Lothar says. "Crutch, throw him in a cell. We'll return for him later."

"Yes, Master," Crutch says.

Denzral will be allowed to be taken to a cell. He will say nothing. He will keep an watchful gaze on the environ.

As you are led away, the second figure beside Lothar turns, and you catch a glimpse of Enah's face beneath the hood...

I reach out to her mind with the Force...

How many FP's do I have left?

I believe you have 5.

Does it cost points to try and scan her? Can I still see my lightsabre?
