"Before that though, lets have Joot tell us why they attacked us, I mean us in specific. Was it Random or did that Sith tell them we would be there through an intermmediary or what." she says, having Arro relay the questions.

Translating Joot's words back, ARRO says "He seems a bit confused as to why his band and him attacked us... he says that he remembers someone telling them that we were 'bad' and needed to be destroyed, but he can't remember where he heard it from or whom gave him the information. He also seems a bit embarrassed, as he does not remember traveling to Casino City or how he found us."

"Well you're just a fountain of good news today, Arro." Serrana said. "Not only are we likely dealing with Sith here, we're dealing with someone capable of messing with the memories of a dozen and a half people. Great."

"Well you're just a fountain of good news today, Arro." Serrana said. "Not only are we likely dealing with Sith here, we're dealing with someone capable of messing with the memories of a dozen and a half people. Great."

"That would almost certainly be the Sith that I sensed watching the battle. Whether willingly or not, we now have to expect heavy resistance to come from any and every direction. We also know that the Hutt is working for the Sith, either willingly or because she twisted him with the force, and I am not the only one who sensed the darkside affecting him."

"The only people we can trust are those that the Sith haven't had a chance to alter, people who haven't been on planet."

"Jade," Elan Xandar Renn said. "Perhaps you should consider the possibility of accepting the Hutt's hospitality. Once at the palace, we could stealthily make our way down to the caverns below."

"It would be dangerous, certainly," he added. "But consider that we have our own means of altering others' perceptions. "

"I am fairly certain that this Sith cannot exert mind control over all of the Hutt's guards and servants. The most efficient means would be to control the Hutt itself, which we know he has done, and through him, control the rest of the organization."

"The real danger would lie in avoiding the Wookiee and the Twi'leks. Their minds are likely strong enough to resist the influence of the Force"

"You seem to be overlooking the fact that our opponents are actually you know...competent. They would sense us bending the minds of their followers right and left. At that point we are surrounded by the Hutts entire gang and the whole lot of the Night Warlocks and the Sith Lord that we are hoping is actually there. The fact that none of the rest of you were able to sense the Sith even as close as it was to us argues heavily for the fact that it will be difficult to face all on its own without an army of force users and thugs backing it."

"Its good to trust in the force, but not to the point that you leap onto your opponents lightsaber because you didn't think things through first. Attacking the palace is simply no good with just the 7 of us, and I have to believe that any plan to enter it will ultimately fall to a fight."

"What I'd like to do is set our own trap and capture whoever comes to take the bait. But I'm aftraid we might get something like Joot's band again." Serrana said.

"I think we're done here." Serrana says. "If we're going to try and search the Hutt's palace, there are some things we're going to need to get first."

The old monk says something to the standing figure, who them helps him to his feet. The pair turns in towards the opening in the valley walls and start to leave.

Pausing a moment, the old one turns back to ARRO and says something. Translating it, ARRO says “The old monk wishes us luck, and says that he hope that you hurry with whatever you do. The shadow will be fully awake soon and he fears what destruction it will cause the people if it escapes…”

Jade sighs as the limited time was brought up again, this time by the monk. It seemed like the Jedi didn't have the time to do things properly. All that the Padawans could do was act in haste and trust in the force to guide them through the fight with the sith.

"We don't seem to have the time to do things right, only to do them sloppy. So we are trying to sneak through the Hutt's palace to the Sith Base under it?"
