"Of course I did," said Ascar, "though I am rarely in the business of making moral judgments. However, whilst he will not get its location from me, I do not know what may happen with Persis, and Kuylen has already done the impossible once with Avalar... one thing I also sensed is that I suspect it is Kuylen's destiny to find the Mausoleum. The Force is aiding him."
Kellan felt an urgent need to return to Coruscant and report this information to the Jedi Council. In fact, she had been anxious to return home for some time, as disastrous as this mission had been. But she had to see it through to its conclusion, despite the warnings Grevor had given her on Malastare.
"And what is your destiny, Ascar ?"
"There's only the two of us here, Ascar," Kellan pointed out, unwavered by the tone of the man's voice. "The ultimate objective of my mission has not been achieved. I will continue to persue Kuylen if I am so ordered to by the authorities involved." She straighted, moving from the wall and taking a couple of steps toward Ascar, feeling the soreness of every muscle in her body. "Enlighten me. Where is the masoleum ?"
"It's not Kuylen safety that I was concerned for," says Ascar. "Some things are better left buried. And the only reason I am going to tell you at all is that I suspect Kuylen is already on his way there, and it is well he be opposed when he does so.
"That is to say, I am going to tell you on one condition. And do not worry, I am not asking for my freedom."
