Whereever the trouble is, it's not right here, Sieri. About fifty feet to your right, obscured by much vegetation.

Running through the jungle is very disorientating. Were it nto for your force senses you would lose your bearings in an instant; even as it is you do not know how to get back the way you came. Therer is running all around and the sound of gunfire ahead, receding at the same rate that you are running.

(By ambassador I assume you mean the Senatorial Assistant T'Lo Nebb, Marcus... he's very particular about that.)
"Master Jedi, how terrible!" he says. The Captain is trying to get a count of the dead.
-
"I guess you can see him now," says the bartender. "Take his lift." He indicates to an innocuous looking door behind the bar.

(I assume you are talking to the Captain, Fire)
"For your information," says Pheron, "I just sent a message to get approval to send security teams into the area to arrest the intruders. I shall get confirmation any moment."
"Of course, your security mandate does not extend to allowing Jedi inside, am I not right, Captain Pheron?" asks Nebb. Pheron nods.
"Only my own men," he says. "I can't go in either."

"I cannot let you in!" says Pheron. "Regardless of any view I hold on the necessity of it!"
"It does seem that this has become a rather delicate situation," says Nebb. "I suggest that we should proceed with our original plan before the situation gets any worse."
"Fine, whatever," says Pheron. "That's what you are here for. There is nothing else I can do."
-
Meanwhile, back on Coruscant...
"It's a complete nightmare," says Trorn. "The Council is very concerned. VERY concerned. Considering everything else they have to worry about, that is quite something."
His audience, the Jedi Knight yerssot, can only look on bemusedly.
"Look at the complaints I have. LOOK at them! One from the security forces leader on Tartarus complaining that the Jedi have threatened him and attempted to deny senatorial authority. One from the Lamellan Senator himself saying that the Jedi are disrupting the work of a Senatorial investigation. One from the Independant Merchant's Guild AND the Mining Guild saying that this is an attempt by the Jedi, acting under the infleucne of the Senate, to break up their operations. Even one from the TRADE Federation!" Trorn looks at that last one again "Actually, they are just complaining that the Jedi haven't destroyed the Lamellans. Damn Neimodians. Sooner the Courts sort them out the better.
"I've tried to send a message to Master Gundark but she has disappeared into Hutt Space. Quite what she was thinking when she did that with a million credit bounty on her and taking Xeth who the Hutts want dead is beyond me but now we have no news of either of them. Sieri and Lance have disappeared out of the Republic. The only remnants of Gundark's mission we have any idea about are Master Marcus and Mah and THEY are the ones that have caused this trouble.
"You know Master Marcus, of course," says Trorn (that's Fire's character, Yerss). "Fine man, fine man indeed but never with any patience for procedure. Mah will be following his lead, of course. I tried to tell Mah to handle things delicately but now I am hearing reports of civilian casualties, explosions, system disruption... we need someone to go to try and smooth things out..."
Trorn hesitates here, yerssot, and you think you know why- Trorn doesn't think you are the man to do it. But there is no-one else to send.
"Anyway, now the Council have approved you for active service again we can put you back in the loop of Gundark's mission. The Council requests that you resolve this impasse between our agents and the authorities on Tartarus and then continue their mission, ok? Master Gundark always wanted you back so she will be happy to hear it, if we hear from her again."
You wait, yerssot, patiently.
"Oh, silly me!" says Trorn, shuffling around for some papers. "You have no idea what their mission is, do you? A lot has happened since you returned from Damagran. I am afraid little of it is positive. I suppose I had better tell you all that has been going on..."

The lift moves up a few floors, humming softly.
It opens into a Hugh Hefner-esque room of paradise. All around are soft furnishings, drapes, there is soft music playing in the background, and a number of saunas scattered around. There is a slightly misty edge to the room as well, and a smell which, whilst not unpleasant, worries you somewhat.
One of the saunas is occupied by a beautiful girl whose eyes lazily turn towards you as you walk in. On the far side of the room is a luxury writing desk, on the other side of which is a well-dressed and handomse man, who is cahtting into a comm unit.

Trorn looks tired. The complication of the situation is obviously getting to him.
"As you reported, yerssot, Kuylen and his men retrieved a full set of Sith navigational data from Avalar before it was destroyed. Now, the Council considered that to be only a minor problem. Sith star charts were constructed with obscure topography and little general logic. Only with the correct navigational aid could they be used and none were thought to exist. The Jedi Archives contain two Sith Astrolabes but they are both non-functional. Hpwever, it seems we were in error. A functional Astrolabe existed in a private collection on Malastare. It was this that Kuylen wished to seize, and that is why his men took the risk of going there. Master Gundark believes that Kuylen intends to use the Star Charts and Astrolabe to find the Masoleum of Demnos- as in Darth Demnos.
"I do not know if you have heard the legend. Darth Demnos was a powerful Sith Lord many millenia ago, long before the final Sith War. According to the legend he constructed his own final resting place before ritually sacrificing himself and becoming spirtually 'one' with the structure itself, which then faded from sight. From that point on, any Sith Novice in need of instruction could come to the Mausoleum, which would then appear before him, for him to enter and complete his training.
"It is nonsense, of course; not even the Sith believed it. The idea that a Sith Lord would sacrifice himself for the benefit of others is ludicrous. The most common theory is that Demnos was murdered by his own apprentice who then used his name as a rallying call for his own faction. Regardless, unlike Avalar there was never any doubt over its existence. The Cult of Demnos was very real and the Mausoleum was its headquarters. The Cult is long dead, but the Mausoleum was never found. Perhaps it cannot be sene after all; one can never tell with the Dark Side.
"Now, Kuylen and his followers are no Sith but it is possible they have learned from the small amount of the archive on Avalar they recovered the means of accessing the Mausoleum. As to what that may benefit them... I am not sure any can say. But it may be as well to try and stop this happening. Regardless of the truth, the Sith still thought it important, The Astrolabes in the Archives- and that Master Gundark saw on Malastare- have the readings for both Avalar and the Mausoleum- it is only by kowning the location of Avalar that Kuylen can find the relative position of his target, if he gets the Astrolabe. Point is, Avalar- and so any Astrolabe with its location on- was only built just over a thousand years ago. If the Sith still thought the Mausoleum important thousands of years after Demnos died, then we should be wary of it being found again."
Trorn looks very tired.
"Now, as to how the Astrolabe found its way into private hands... just over fifty years ago, there was a very promising Padawan at the Temple named Mal Sannan. He had a staggeringly high midi-chlorian count. Almost as high as Master Yoda's himself. But Sannan was stubborn and ill-disciplined. He was never happy in the Temple, and aged 13 he left forever, his training far from complete. Imagine our surprise, then, that the businessman Kir Ascar that owneed the private collection on Malasare that the Astrolabe was housed in was uncovered by Master Gundark as beign none other than Mal Sannan, 50 years on. And from her report, his force powers are NOT those of a half-trained Padawan. Ascar claims to have completed his training on some distant world and apparently has some strange ideas about the Force. But he is VERY powerful and used his powers to become rather exceedingly rich and influential- and to accumulate his exceptional collection, Astrolabe and all.
"I don't understand much about this situation myself- Master Gundark reports that Ascar exudes a calm serenity that rules him out from being on the Dark Side but he is certainly no Jedi. And it seems that Kuylen has been working with Ascar for some time- it is likely that Ascar is the one who gave him the information on how to find Avalar. But it seems that Ascar was not willing to simply hand over the Astrolabe to either Gundark or Kuylen. A small war ensued. It was very bad publicity for us.
"Now, Yerssot, it is important you understand that the Council's opposition to chasing Kuylen remains. The destruction on Malastare was precisely the sort of thing they wished to avoid. Were it not for the Supreme Chancellor;s interest she would not be out there at all. As it is it is likely she will be re-called soon. Kuylen has left Republican space and is no longer a direct threat. But if it is at all practical, we would like to recover the Astrolabe before his agents do, and this is why her mission is still tolerated.
"Ascar himself- the only person who actually KNOWS where the Mausoleum is, according to reports- has fled to Hutt Space, where Gundark has pursued him to arrest him for resisting arrest and to ensure that Kuylen's men do not extort his secret from him. He is not your concern. However, whilst there is a question mark over how dangerous Ascar is, he had two apprentices who were VERY dangerous. Ascar was as poor a teacher as he was learner. These two, Persis and Majora, were thoroughly consumed by the Dark Side. They anonomously used a sabre dojo on Malastare run by Teshan [NOTE- Teshan was a civilian instructor at the Temple who taught you- and just about every other Jedi trained in the last few decades- the basics of sabre fighting before actual Jedi took you for more advanced lessons, yerssot] to learn how to fight and attacked Gundark's team on Malastare. Majora was killed but Persis escaped- WITH the Astrolabe. Ascar has disowned him but that makes little difference. Persis has it and if Kuylen's men find him before we do they will most likely kill him and take it. It is GREATLY preferable that we find Persis first, and it is this mission we are assigning you to.
"Persis is within Republican space but the PROBLEM is that the are he has fled to- a moon named Tartarus in the Lamellan sector- is currently the subject of a Senatorial review into a vast smuggling operation there that has been running under our nose for decades. But whilst this investigation going on, Republican forces are only allowed inside a small military compund on the moon. Persis is in the civilian area so as it stands Marcus and Mah are not being allowed to pursue him by the authorities there.
"Now, because of the urgency of the situation I spoke to the Lamellan Senator and he has sent his personal assistant to Tartarus to find a way to allow the Jedi to pursue Persis without disrupting the mor egeneral investigation. I thought that would help, but..." Trorn ruffles around the large amount of complaints he is wading through again, "things have only gotten worse. Relations between Marcus and the local authorites have completely broken down and meanwhile Persis is doing whatever he wants. If these latest reports are correct, Kuylen's men have arrived and THEY are doing what they want as well.
"Your orders, then, yerssot. Get to Tartarus. Sort out this diplomatic mess. Find a way to enter the civilian area without breaking the Senatorial jurisdiction there- the Senatorial assistant T'Lo Nebb will help you do that. Get to Persis, recover the Astrolabe. Persis is very dangerous and if you have to no-one will blame you for killing him.
"I hope you can sort this one out, yerssot. The Council has a close eye on this one, remember. Any questions?"

"Yes, I have one Trorn ... if you please ...
What if the Supreme Chancelor wrote down this mandate, sealing it and give it to me, with that mandate, I could go to master Marcus and friend Mah who can give it to the local bureaucracy.
An order from a Supreme Chancelor is always higher then that of a senator, no? This should ease the mission significally, and should allow us to get to where we need to go.
The operation is no secret anymore, so I take this should not complicate things even worse, because we are going to arrest this Persis you talked about and will in no way interfear with the other investigation.
If this can be taken care of, a direct link with the Supreme Chancelor and the Jedi Council would make it even more easy should any trouble arise.
I know I am not in the position to ask, but can there be a jedi who will accompany me to Tartarus? Two are stronger then one, no?"
Yerssot said after some poundering.
(btw, want to get some "free time" before leaving for the mission)

"I must say I didn;t think about asking the Supreme Chancellor," says Trorn. "It seemed rather presumptuous. Of course, he can't reverse a Senatorial decision without first convening the Senate but... well, I can arrange an appointment with him if you want; as you are joining an investigation under his auspices he should find the time.
"As for other Jedi, I am afraid not. You are, in fact, our only currently available agent. We could pull some off other missions but I am afraid the Council feels that with six Jedi already assigned- and now yourself- more would simply be too controversial. Ithrorn gets back from assignment in eight days; I could send him on then, but it might be rather late."
Yes, you have free time, yerss. Just say when you want to see the Chancellor; this whole segment is taking place 'in the past' as it were. When you are ready to join Mah and Marcus your ship will arrive on Tartarus immediately.
-
"Um... yes... and sorry, you are?" asks Androni, nervously.
Xeth, the girl gets out of the sauna and drifts lazily across your field of vision.
"Hi..." she says, dreamily. Damn it... you know what that smell is now. Blue Mist. It's a narcotic. This girl is completely blasted on it.
