STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- The White Tower of Halloy

Denzral let the council discuss the situation.

Windu is studying you while the Council members discuss amongst themselves once more. It is Ki-Adi-Mundi that addresses you next.

"This holds special resonance for you, does it not?" Master Mundi asks.

Denzral's expression briefly changed, going from passive to almost resentful of the fact that Master Mundi had reached this stage of the topic. Pain shone in his eyes. He gathered himself quickly however, and nodded. "Yes." Denzral almost refused to keep talking. "Although-" he glanced at the other members "-as you are all aware, several years ago my master was..." he redirected his gaze back the Mundi "...assassinated.". He then noticed that Mace Windu was studying him; to hell with it! I am a human being, and I feel pain at my masters death, let him watch me! His eyes hardened. "The investigation into my Master's death brought fourth little in the way of Insight. We had found the body of a man, his eye's hollowed out and replaced with coins, not to mention precision gashes , and the coins were of the Cult of Necros."

"I am aware of the details of the fall of Master Kanna Ichinne," Mace Windu says. "One of those coins is the possession of the Council. You hold the other."

"This means that this particular subject holds particular danger for you, Denzral," Plo Koon says. "If the Cult of Necros has returned in some new form, hunting them will a temptation for you."

"I do." he flicked it in his hand, rubbing his thumb over the engraved surface. "Yes." He lowered his head. "It is, master Kloon. I agree that this is something I should not look into for that very reason. The thought of not telling you about the cult's supposed return had crossed my mind. So yes this is a dangerous subject for me." He returned completely to the passive expression of earlier. "I am sorry."

"It is fortunate that you did inform us of this possible problem," Windu says, "and even more so that you realize what dangers the Cult holds for you personally."

"It is not a coincidence, I feel," Mundi says, "that it was you that apprehended the raiders at Dartta. The Force is at work here."

Denzral remained silent.

The Council, with your silence, looks to Windu to proceed. He does so.

"I believe what Master Mundi is implying is that there is a reason only you have heard of this return," Windu says. "These coins are evidence of its truth. You are a Jedi Knight, Denzral, and we do not hesitate to burden you with the task of uncovering the Cult of Necros. I would not ask if you were not willing."

"I am willing, master." Denzral had not considered even for a second the conclusion that Windu and Mundi had come to. But now he could see the connections they had made. Can Denzral feel anything himself about the situation? (Intuition is it? I'll only do it if it will get me anything I need. Otherwise I consider it a waste of a Force Point that I would use elsewhere)

(Did you give Denz a Dream? I don't remember. I swear there is something I am missing here. Something that could have been useful.)

Dreams come at poinant points in the game rather than immediately.

Oh I see. Anyway my character responded. I'll leave Intuition for now)

Intuition is a free power that comes into play automatically, when appropriate. You don't have to use it. It just is. Sense is more what you are thinking about.

"Then you must find the origins of that raider group," Windu says. "They are our only link."

"Yes, master Windu." Denzral bows. "I will upload this ships profile into the data banks and see if it has cropped up anywhere else recently."

"I suggest following their back-trail as well," Windu says. "You know of targets that they hit prior to Dartta. I would check there and investigate what they did- aside from the obvious- and discover their base of operations."

Denzral nods, a snile on his face. "Of course."

With your mission given you, the Council bids you leave to pursue it.

Windu gives you one final message, however.

"Be cautious, Denzral," Windu says. "Even as a Knight, the Dark Side may tempt you. Think not of revenge."

You are using your own ship, of course, but now is the time to begin, and make preparations for your mission.

Indeed. Denzral bids master Windu thanks, and leaves for the Jedi library. Once there he will upload the sensor scans from Soapy and do a search for any information that might be useful. Of course he will ask the droid to meet him there.

Does Denzral have connections to the Archives?

Yes I think.

Star Ship: Prototype Jedi Starfighter (Will probably come under Modified Jedi Starfighter)
Ally: R4-G3 (Soapy)
Contact: Jedi Archive

Perfect! The problem here, then, is that the Archives are not exactly a starship registry databank. It does contain a variety of models and even famous and infamous ships, but when you feed the information from R4 into the Archives, it turns up no matches for starship's model.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" asks Jocasta Nu, the librarian for the Archives.
