The Archivists are tasked with collecting and collating lost knowledge.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">About six years ago, Lucius had a severe change in personality.  Asking odd questions about Forbidden Subjects, losing all memory of previous friendships, and treating the Temple's archives as his own personal library.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">After getting caught violating the Sanctum, he was expelled from the Order and left Tatooine entirely.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">He reappeared five years later, apparently his old self again.  He had no memory of his travels, and begged to be readmitted into the Order.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">No one thought he would be readmitted, but the Abbot welcomed Lucius back in after a private meeting with him.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Everything seemed back to normal, until Lucius started having strange dreams several month ago.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">He was going crazy trying to find out what he had been doing during those five years missing from his memory.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Two days ago, he disappeared and no one can find him.  The other monks seem unconcerned.</li> </ul>Egil is willing to let the Heroes search Lucius' quarters, but only so long as he can be present when they do.Other Tidbits and Rumors that can be heard around town:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The Orbital Station is almost done now: Only three more months until its commissioning. They say the Imperial Governor is planning a big celebration.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">They don’t call that infernal station “Milton’s Folly” for nothing. Ten years to build, and now the planetary coffers are almost empty.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The Imperial Garrison has been cut back so much that the thieves, smugglers and pirates are running wild. Only the Old Quarter gets real protection.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">All the Stormtroopers from the garrison are being sent out to try to refortify Fort Tusken.  It's a lost cause, if you ask me...  It'll take every man they've got to just to hold onto it against the Sand People.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Pirates don’t even bother to lay low when they come to port these days. There are pirate ships here right now—there's even a crew of Gamorreans!</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The local crime lords have had just about enough of Governor Milton. I wouldn't be surprised if had an “unfortunate accident” before his precious space station is finished.</li> </ul></blockquote>
