Knights of the Old Republic: The Last of the Sith(Master Kanas' Group)

((OOC: Since the four of you are ready to move, we're jumping ahead to get your half of the adventure going.))

It was eight hours after leaving Master Essenu and her apprentices. The hyperspace flight to Rollan was staggered, as there was no direct lane to the planet Master Kanas had to make multiple short jumps to arrive. During the flight, Nolem gave each of you a small datapad with information on the four lost Jedi that you had been sent to find.

The first was the Jedi Knight Seros Nedana. He was a Miraluka, and brother to the Jedi Master Marin Essenu. He had been one of the Jedi to fight the Sith on Rollan and drive them off the planet. Not long after, he had also been a part of the strike force consisting of at least a thousand other Jedi to assault the small moon of the gas giant Yavin. This planet was the one that Kanas did not have the location on. Nedana had apparently disappeared just two months prior, and his last known location was on Mon Calamari where he had met with his sister Marin. After that, it is only known that he had his own ship, and Marin reported that he had been acting strangely.

Second, was a young human, Adrensia Galant. She had been granted the title of Jedi Knight only two days before her disappearance. She was one of the last to leave the library world of Ossus, and had fought against both the Sith Lord Exar Kun and the fallen Jedi Ulic Qel-Droma in her escape from the planet with the other remaining Jedi. Her master was killed in the escape, but Adrensia made it away. The Jedi Assembly lost contact with her while she was supposed to be on her way to Hutt Space to negotiate a treaty. She never arrived. Instead, there were reports that she had taken this time to go into Sith Space. According a some who knew her, she had sometimes expressed a want to hunt down and make sure the Sith were gone for what they'd done to Ossus and her Master.

Third was another human. His name was Oran Ithsada, and he had been a Jedi Master in high standing. After the disappearance of Adrensia Galant, he had taken on the task of finding her. He had been a friend to her Master, and worried that Adrensia may had given into her darker emotions to fuel what he worried was a crusade against whatever may have remained of the Sith. His last transmission was from somewhere deep in Sith Space, and he reported that he had found nothing beyond ruins everywhere he had gone. The transmission, however, was cut off during his explanation about a black hole in the area. The Jedi Assembly do not believe that he has fallen, but instead worry what may have happened to him.

The last Twi'lek named Arach Tuorr. He was one of the greatest Jedi Knights to fight in the Sith Wars, saving at least two planets by his actions alone. However, his constant contact with the Sith worried many other Jedi(and apparently, even Arach who told others to keep a close eye on him just in case). After the Sith War ended, Arach seemed lost with nothing to do. He took on no apprentices, though the Assembly would gladly have granted him the title of Jedi Master. Not long ago, however, he disappeared. There was a worrying message left behind, simply put, "Korriban is out there." Korriban was the planet that the Jedi Assembly fought hard to find, and never did. It was the alleged homeworld of the Sith. That, put together with the worry of his contact with so many Sith(even though it was in combat), caused the Jedi Assembly to send these two Jedi Masters and their apprentices. Arach was the real 'target' among the four to find.

Now, Rollan filled most of the viewport. The small blue-white star that was the system's sun was a far distance off, and comparable in size more to a moon than a star. The planet itself was a lush green, though there were large sections that were simply brown. Those were areas that the Sith had destroyed...searching for something. No one knew what, or if they ever found it.

Master Kanas looked down to the planet below, sitting in the large cockpit that could easily fit all five of them. He had called the others to the cockpit also. Looking down at the planet, he seemed to have a strange look of nostalgia on his face. Almost pained, but controlled in the way that most Jedi Masters did when strong emotions were there. He seemed to watch the planet with more than just his eyes, almost feeling if they were in the right place.

*~*~*​

Not much of a spacer Skyka was surprised to find out that they where so close to her home; she had expected a trip that took days and not mere hours but she realized the trip would seem far longer than.

Unsure how long it would be before they would have another chance to sleep Skyka tried to do just that but she only slept enough to start trashing around in her bed, “The Dream” as she called it, a dark nightmare of her dark time on Rollan and full of even darker images that she did not always comprehend, quickly moved in to terrorize her mind with a new found intensity.

Waking in a fright Skyka found herself setting in her bed panting for breath that seemed like it would never come while her light blue eyes where wide in fright. The intensity of the nightmare surprised Skyka, but she never once thought about talking about them and after taking a few minutes of a Jedi training technique to calm her mind Skyka threw off the covers and began the elaborate, and time consuming, process of braiding her waist length hair.

Wanting something to occupy her mind Skyka excitedly digs into the datapad and the information upon the fallen and missing Jedi… There was a lesson to be learned in each one of their tales and she tried to discern them but must she studied the stories and silently hoped that each of the Jedi’s story would have a far happier ending that seemed to be so rare.

Of all the stories in front of her Adrensia Galant's story intrigued and bothered her the most… In her mind there was no doubt that Adrensia was her, at least it would have been her if the Sith had killed Nolem in the war. The path between justice and revenge was a thin and narrow one full of unexpected twists and turns, one that hopefully not only Skyka could navigate but also one that Adrensia had been able to find safe harbor in.

*~*~*​

The view from the large cockpit of the Ossus’s Talon showed the damage to Rollan. Skyka knew the statistical amount of damage but had never seen it from above; when she had left she had done so without looking back, but to actually see it in person was painful.

So many of my people… Friends. Family. Dead or enslaved, and for what? What where the Sith looking for...?

Skyka hid the torment and grief behind her cold eyes, she simply looked on and waited.

Seeing the large planet with it's brown scarred areas where the Sith had defiled it's once beautiful forests, Bud'd stretched out to the force to see if she could see deeper into the view before her.

You detect the others aboard the ship, but the planet is too far away for you to feel anythin from it.

With abilities rather far removed from foresight, Aerek begins a more conventional search. A Jedi passing through a world as remote as Rollan had a good chance of making newswire reports, if he or she hadn't adopted a disguise.

[take 10 on a Computer Use check for a +15; if he uncovers nothing, he'll ask for Barrik's help, as he knows the Mon Calimari is much better at that sort of thing than he is]
 

((drothgery:
There is no news of Rollan anytime after the Sith were last driven away from the planet beyond a small piece about the spaceport having been completely levelled in the battle.
))

Master? Where do you propose we land? Bud'd inquired. She then checked to see if any of the ship's sensors offered anything suitable.

Barrick stood in the cockpit, surveying the blasted surface of Rollan and reading over the biographies of the missing Jedi. He shook his head as he thought about the suffering, the pain that the people of the planet had endured at the hands of the Sith. This thing must be very powerful, for the Sith to search for it so ruthlessly, he thought. Very powerful, or very important.

Is there a metaplot reason why these early Sith Lords don't use the Darth -X- naming convention? No reason, just wondering.

Kanas looked down at one of the large scorched areas and pointed towards a treeline, "That's where the old spaceport used to be. I'm not sure its worth attempting to set down there...I honestly don't know what's happened to the native Sentarii since the Sith were driven off. They could have easily scattered and not be anywhere near where they used to be," he sighed heavily, "But there's plenty of space to land..."

Slowly, the ship began angling towards the planet anyway, "I'll bring it into the atmosphere and start towards the spaceport, but how about the three of you try to find some life that we can get nearby? Simple exercise for you at this point, but always a good one."

Skyka replied, “Yes Master.”

Her voice seemed distant, even to herself and as Skyka recovered she wondered if the whole exercise was simply to take her mind of things. Doing as she had been instructed her light blue eyes closed as she quickly focused upon the force.
