USH'S GAME EPISODE IV- 'CHASE'- LIGHT SIDE AREA

"Oh yeah, a JEDI on Tartarus... like you would have NOTHING to do with the investigation.. sure..."

"which investigation?"

"Pfft," says the bartender. "The one into the smugglers. Or the Republic's attempt to destroy our way of life."

Nebb is dashing over, yerssot, as the protocol droid translates what you say. He didn't come at first because it was busy translating other things... something you may wish to note.

*holds out hand, giving nebb a slight push*
"and you have no idea how you can help me?"

"I have no INTENTION of helping you," says the bartender. "Good day."

(and waving my hand doesn't work huh?)
*places lightsabre on the bar*
"Perhaps I didn't made myself clear about the Ale?"

(seems strong-willed)

"Unless you are selling that sabre I would not worry," he says.

"I think it is time we moved on," says Nebb.

"what will it take to get info out of you exactly?"

"Nebb can you come over here there is something I want to ask this guy, and you need to be here for it not to be illegal"

*walks over to someone?*
"Well hello there, did you know that man that they found dead in the street?"

Nebb looks flustered. He asks the droid to relay all conversations to him in order.

What you think the problem is here, yerss, is that these people resent the restrictions the Republican investigation has put on them. They think everyone asking questions is here to ruin their life.

"Come on, Androni," Kellan urged the trembling man to his feet. "Show's over. Move."

Androni, still shaking somewhat, takes you to the lift, which zooms upwards. For a moment you are reminded of Ascar's building on Malastare as the lift shoots up to the top... Ascar must have something about height.

It goes all the way tp the penthouse suite. The lift door opens to reveal a corridor with a single door at the end.

"Here we are," says Androni.

Kellan briefly envisioned a wall of bounty hunters behind the hotel door. I wish I could compliment you on your insight right now, Grevor...

She exchanged a sideways glance with Xeth and stepped out of the lift, reaching out with all of her senses.

You can feel... you are not sure. The future is uncertain; Ascar has nevber been easy to guess. You reach the door without incident.

"Listen, I went in nice and easy, with a smile, either I can go out in two minutes, still nice and easy with a smile. Or I can be like a gundark and stay for a few hours which means you will be bankrupt...
your choice, just answer my question..."

"I hope that's not a threat from a Republican representative," says the bartender. "I know the law."

"There is obviously no question of there being threats," says Nebb. "Jedi Yerssot, we are leaving. That is mandatory or this mission is over."

(Yerss, the bartender is bored. People have tried to shake him down before)

Kellan palmed the door chime. "Delivery," she called loudly.

A few moments later the door opens to reveal Ascar, dressed in a smart suit. he looks rather annoyed to see you.

"Master Gundark," he says, politely. "Well now... shall we at least do this with some decorum? Please come in."

"Who said I care about the republic?"
*through teeth*

Indeedy, though you entered the area on official Republican grounds. It might have been possible to enter as a private citizen but that would have required a whole different approach from the start. May as well make the best of it now...
