USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE VI (LIGHT SIDE)- Missing Links

Wentar just puts a hand to his face and rubs his eyes, letting out an exasperated sigh. "If you have to ask that there's no point in explaining..."

He stays silent for a moment, calming his thoughts and feelings. "Do you know why he was killed?"

Aurel silently slips away from the cell, now that the conversation had begun. He would be content to observe the dialogue for the moment, now that they were able to make some movement forward, though from Saar's replies the young Jedi had a feeling there would still be some lateral motion ongoing.

"I have the same information you do. So what do you think?"

"That he was killed to keep silent, he knew or did something that someone didn't want to get out. They left him in that... state so people wouldn't realize he was dead and have no reason to dig into what he was doing at the time."

Saar finally turns around from the screen, raising an eyebrow.

"You think he was killed to keep quiet? Then you are not thinking logically. Did you not follow through the continuity of events? Lennah had been on that planet for some time and not moved. He was hiding. If there was anything he knew that could have damaged Adelmo without incriminating himself, he would have revealed it long before he was killed. Most likely he would have gone to the Jedi- through hius lawyers- to work some sort of deal out. No, Lennah was an irrelevance by then. He knew nothing of note."

"Vengeance, then?" Xeth asks. "Adelmo was getting him back for something in the past?"

"That would certainly be Adelmo's style. She is not the sort to let things go."

"And you think that's what happened?"

"Seems like it to me. Particularly the manner of his death."

Did we actually determine what had killed him?

Nope.

"We weren't able to determine the cause of death," Gallagher says, having been the person to perform the medical analysis upon finding Lennah. "It was a quick examination; I would have needed to perform on autopsy."

"Oh," says Saar. "Didn't any of you try to feel his mind?"

"I did... I couldn't sense anything," Gallagher says. "Or rather, it felt strange. It felt like his mind was gone."

"And did you try and sense why that was the case?"

Gallagher admits that he did not.

"Ahhh... all the talent in the galaxy will not help you if you do not ask the right questions.

"Destroyed by fear, I would say. Sheer terror. Adelmo's handiwork. She can do some very impressive things with people's minds."

Gallagher frowns and wonders if he has ever heard of anything so downright awful and overpowering in his studies of the Force.

"It is known that the Jedi can alter minds when needed," Gallagher says. "But destroying one? That's quite a feat, and a terrible one."

"It's not the sort of art that would interest a Jedi. Such a feat requires an... 'emotional commitment'."

"Hate," says D'an. "On;y sheer hatred could cause something so terrible."

Saar just smiles.

"She certainly believes she has reason to be hateful, from what little we know of Adelmo," Gallagher says. "And hate is appropriate for an act of revenge. So the question, why did she hate Lennah?"
