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

[Brother Shatterstone]

Skyka Tarkrak: Human/Female (Force Adept 1/ Jedi Guardian 5)

Nodding her head in understanding, and glancing over her shoulder at those gathered around the ship Skyka replies quite and coldly though she finds herself confused, and slightly worried, but their guests, “I don’t mean to alarm anybody but these aren’t the locals we where looking for. Still we should avoid a conflict, they might be the only contact we have with Seros Nedana… and the Sentarrii…”

Speaking loud enough that their guest can hear them but at a deliberately slower pace Skyka repeats her original greeting, “I’m Skyka Tarkrak and these are my friends. We mean you know harm, we simply seek a Miraluka by the name of Seros Nedana.”

Bud'd's hands tense in readiness, ready to grab for both lightsaber and blaster. She keeps her look calm and collected, but mutters softly for her group to hear, Should this take a turn for the worse, boys head for the beings on the ship, girls the group at the forest. That is, IF they don't turn out to be nice types... and upon finishing, she looks up to the first beings and offers her best "false" smile.

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Watching them all carefully, one of the first of the 'natives' with a polearm tilted his head slightly, but spoke in a slow, careful voice in Basic, "You...search out..." he paused, trying to think, then took a very long moment getting the word right, "...Jedi?"

Interstingly enough, at the word the others around him gave him an almost terrified stare.

Skyka Tarkrak: Human/Female (Force Adept 1/ Jedi Guardian 5)

Smiling reassuringly Skyka takes a step or two towards the speaker her words are still soft and slow, “Yes, a Jedi. Seros Nedana was one of the Jedi that liberated this planet from the Sith. How do you know Seros’ name?”

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

The speaked watched them for a moment, then turned to the others. They spoke amongst themselves for a moment, and every so often the word "Jedi" or "Sith" could be heard. He then turned back and made another attempt at Basic, "No...no know name. Only...Jedi come from stars. Sith...they not come from stars. They come from night. That mean you...Jedi."

Skyka Tarkrak: Human/Female (Force Adept 1/ Jedi Guardian 5)

Skyka smiles encouraging at the speaker, but speaks rapidly and quietly almost to herself, “Well I guess there is no fooling you...”

Moving her hand slowly she pulls down a braid of pure white hair while she takes another step closer with the intention of showing off her hair. She again speaks slowly, “Have you seen anyone else with white hair? Maybe a group of women?” With a small smile she drops the braid and points to herself, “You know, just like me.”

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Another long pause where he seemed to be thinking. Then, he said, "No women...no one. Only ones that come at night. Everyone else...gone."

That got a chorus of noises that were sounded like they were agreeing, and lots of nodding of heads. The ones that were near the ship had seemed to calm down some, not in nearly a 'ready to kill' stance as they had originally been in.

 

[deadestdai]

Gently, Bud'd sidled up to Skyka and whispered, Ask them if they know where the Lost are situated here.

Skyka Tarkrak: Human/Female (Force Adept 1/ Jedi Guardian 5)

Skyka created Bud'd’s question with a slight nod but underneath her cold demeanor she acknowledged it as a welcome distraction, her trip home had been anything but what she expected and the absence of her people bothered her far more than the brown scorch marks that marred Rollan’s natural beauty.

“What of these Sith? How and why do they come at night?”

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

"Not every night..." he said, seemingly getting used to speaking Basic the more he talked, "Only some nights...take people away. Come back and not remember what happen. But always come back...different."

As he said that, he motioned to the two creatures in the group that was behind them near the ship. Those two looked human but...not. Larger, bulkier, and held painful looks on their faces. In a way, they looked like the primitive Massassi that were found on the planet Yavin IV during the fight against the Sith there.
