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

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Master Kanas nodded at Aerek's words, "We need information, and people in charge will have something. We may not be able to get the person in charge of everything on the planet, but we shouldn't aim for that until we truly know who that is anyway, and what it is we're really dealing with."

The Jedi Master took a long moment to think before adding, "If the Sith are training new acolytes at the norther temple that you were at before, then that may be the best target. The other temple is very large, very spread out, and the few Sith I did encounter there were very dangerous...more so than I would expect from acolytes."

“I would prefer to go after the true Sith other than their misguided students but in the end I suspect it doesn’t truly matter,” though Skyka’s words where emotionless they seemed cold, “but what does matter is that we chose and that we chose soon. We have no idea what sort of problems delaying will bring we should move now.”

“Now,” she paused studying everyone’s expressions hopeful to find some understanding in regards to her discomfort from the ship’s close quarters, “if no one has any objections I would prefer to continue this debate outside in the open spaces or I would like to be dismissed from the rest of the debate… In which case I will accept whatever you all agree too.”

Bud'd nodded in agreement. Let's discuss preparations and then rest. She got up to move outside.

Aerek followed the others outside.

"Did you have any ideas?" Aerek asked. Doing things my way didn't work so well the last time.

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Master Kanas was the last out of the ship, stepping off to the side when he was down and looking like he was starting for the ship that Aalun had come in. He seemed quite content with leaving the details up to the rest of you, but stopped after Aerek spoke. He seemed lost in thought for a long moment before turning around to face you, the scarred face of the older Jedi Master showing the usual concern when faced with situations like this one.

"I believe the safest thing is to go back to the smaller complex you scouted before. However...considering what happened last time, it may be a good idea to search for another way in."

But that was all he said. The man nodded simply, then turned around again and headed off to the ship. Probably to sleep. He looked more exhausted than you'd ever seen him before.

((Trying to push a little decision making, here...but if this causes another pause like it has the last couple of times, I'll just jump this ahead and get through a night's sleep to the next day and the actual moving.))

Skyka Tarkrak: Human/Female (Force Adept 1/ Jedi Guardian 6)

“It works,” Skyka said in a soft-spoken calm.

Noting Master Kanas’ departure Skyka turned from the group, her last words had been her final vote and she would accept whatever the grouped decision was, and headed for the broken tree line before her… If memory served her correctly a small broke passed through it…

"Did we get a good scan of the place when we came in before? We could try and match what we saw inside with that to get an idea of where another entrance might be." Aerek said.

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

((Going to jump ahead. To answer Aerek's question(assume it was answered sometime later), no there were no scans of the place done. But considering how it was positioned in that canyon, there was still a lot of space that could have been used for an alternate entrance somewhere.))

Night became morning, and eventually, day began to turn back to night. As the planet's single, distant star began to set over the horizon, Master Kanas gathered all of you again at the shuttle. Few words were exchanged, as there was currently not much to be said.

In a short time, the small shuttle was up and skimming the treeline, headed for the nearest of the temples that you had been into before. The trees became dead nothing, and soon rocks grew into mountains. Master Kanas pulled the shuttle around the nearest of the outcroppings, revealing the obsidian structure that was exactly where it had been left...carved right against the canyon wall, with a large path that slowly rose up into a very tiny bridge, the entrance and exit you had used before. The path itself was very, very high up, about halfway up on the building itself. The spire of the building continued up to a flat top with what looked to be a series of small lights, and the bottom continued down into the empty blackness of the canyon.

But Master Kanas did not bring the ship in any closer, setting it down at the edge of the rocky area that led to the path up and the canyon. Powering down the ship, Master Kanas hit the switch to open the hatch and said back to you, "I'll stay right here and ready to pick you up...or come in if you get into too much trouble. Unless, of course, you're like me to drop you off up on top of that thing."

“It’s an idea,” Skyka admitted, “surely the sentries will be doubled, if not tripled, in numbers after our previous visit.”

“It’s an idea,” Skyka admitted, “surely the sentries will be doubled, if not tripled, in numbers after our previous visit.”

"If the defenses on the roof are unmanned, we should do it." Aerek said. "But I'm not sure what those things can do to the ship before we take them out."
