STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- The Council of Taneshla

Started by REXXXX42 pages

It is not a long journey to the Dreamless Sleeper. It is a very ugly and boxy craft, but it was a cargo ship and is a converted prison, you didn't expect a thing of beauty. The front is a little more pointed and curved but gives way to what is essentially a giant box.

You are not the only arriving ship. A shuttle drops out of hyperspace nearby and hails you- it's Slate's men.

"Ready to go kill the invincible?" Rianna responds to them as her ship approaches the Dreamless Sleeper.

They radio over and affirmative. Not very talkative guys.

You'll be docking with the living area. RX gets the ship into position and lines up your hatch with the cargo ship's hatch. There is a clunk as he does so successfully.

Rianna's going to be using her senses as the ship docks and she gets out of it, sensing for any life.

If there is anyone aboard, they are distant. The ship is vast.

The gunmen join you shortly. These are not the same that fought Rand; two new recruits, though just as skilled and with similar weapons.

"Stay close and keep an eye out for anything unusual," Rianna says to them, taking her lightsaber in her hand. She's going to start with a search of the living quarters, before moving on to the next section, sensing for anything unusual - or living - the entire time.

The living quarters are eerily quiet, Rianna. The docking hatch leads into a main lobby area, with flights of stairs leading to other quarters and rec rooms. You do not sense anyone but your men nearby.

Well, she'll keep searching, then, heading on to the other quarters...

The personnel quarters are empty. You do not see any sign of anyone. It does look like everyone jumped up in a hurry, though. There are televisions left on, for example, so you can hear them echoing in the distance of the ship.

The bridge appears to be sealed when you try to access it.

Hmmm. Kind of seal that can be taken care of by a lightsaber? Cos if so, Rianna will do that.

Still sensing no one around?

Yes, of course. Will only take a moment to cut through. And still no sign of life.

Rianna shall do that, then, wanting to get this done with and away from there as soon as possible.

Rianna carves a small new doorway into the blast door and is met with an unpleasant sight.

The good news, you've found the crew!

The bad news, they're all dead and strewn about the bridge. About fifteen people in all.

Urgh. I'm assuming that Borm isn't using a lightsaber, being a prisoner and all.

Continue the search, I suppose...

No... in fact, you're not sure how he got in here. Or how they died. They look fine (other than being dead).

Maybe it wasn't locked? That is weird, though...is there maybe a secondary control area?

Not from what you can see on the schematics.

How odd...

Can Rianna check the computer records to see if anyone else has accessed anything?

How's Fix-It for Rianna?

Non-existent!
