Barrick:
It doesn't take too long to familiarize yourself with the controls and systems of the small starship that Cai and Wryy'ethh arrived in. The ship is about half the size of the
Ossus Talon, and though Master Kanas is generally quiet as he assists you in getting the systems online, he does make at least one comment about the cramped cockpit and being curious how a Wookie could ever feel comfortable within it.
As the engines are brought online, Master Kanas looks to you and says,
"This was your idea, so unless anything gets too dangerous, consider yourself in charge. Where shall we check out first?
Temple Group:
The trek to the northern Temple is fairly straightforward...but long. For the first half of the walk, the trees are thick and it reminds Skyka and Aerek of what Rollan had been like before the Sith arrived the previous year. Though there are definitely many creatures around, they keep a safe distance from all of you as you move through the thick forest. This area of the planet seems to be alive, much different from what has occurred in other areas. The Force itself seems to permeate from the ground and the air, the thick life strengthing it and providing a welcome change to the rest of the planet.
However, this ends as you near the mountains. In an abrupt and obviously unnatural way, the forest stops, giving way to something much different than the 'scar' you saw near the old spaceport. There, grass at least grew. Here, though, there is only barren rock. The dead land stretches out to the hills in front of you that soon rise up into the northern mountains...which are just as dead as the ground before them. As you approach the mountain, you can see a structure near the base of one of the nearest mountains. It is slightly hidden in a corner of the mountain's base, but the metal sheen near the top of the structure is easy to see against the brown mountain rock.
((Ignore the text and people in the image...and the rain...rest of it, though, is what you see.))
