“Jorraan! Lu! Ara! Nazz!” you shout, causing more Flesh Raiders to charge at you through the smoke and dust kicked up by the explosions. You strike down one before you see another ten run through the dust toward you. You ready yourself to take them on when Ara jumps and lands next to you, her purple saber active and blood on her forehead.

“You okay?” you say before slashing into the oncoming onslaught of Flesh Raiders, hacking off arms, legs, and heads.

“Not my blood,” Ara says with a smile as she ducks below a Flesh Raider’s strike and hits it hard enough on the back of its head that crimson blood spews out.

“Jorraan! Lu! Nazz!” you yell out.

“Here!” a voice yells through the smoke.

You and Ara approach the direction cautiously. Suddenly, a blue light appears through the smoke and you hear the sound and smell the smell of lightsaber running through flesh while Flesh Raiders yell. Another moment and the saber closes and all is silent.

“Lu?” Ara asks.

Lu stumbles into you, clutching his initiate robes close and grimacing. You see on his shoulder a large gash.

“I’m…” Lu mutters through clenched teeth, “an idiot. I cut off the handle of the axe and didn’t realize it would fall on me.”

Ara is at his side in an instant, ripping off part of her robe and another part of Lu’s robe and putting heavy pressure on the wound.

“Ah! Hell are you…”

“Shut up,” Ara orders, “I’m stopping the bleeding so you don’t faint before we get back to the temple. Pax, go find Nazz and Jorraan. I’ll take care of this one.”

You give Lu a worried expression as pain paints his face but he looks at you and nods through his pained breathing.

You shout again, “Jorraan! Nazz!”

You hear the sound of heavy feet running toward you in the fog and ready your lightsaber, waiting for a Flesh Raider to emerge.

“Pax!”

Hearing the childish voice through the fog, you deactivate your saber just as Jorraan runs directly into you.

“Jorraan, you need to be more careful! I could have skewered--”

“Nazz went after the masked guy,” Jorraan says, his breathing heavy. “I tried to chase after but I’m too slow.”

>cont.

>>1833189

>cont.

You grab Jorraan and take him back to Ara and Lu.

"Nazz is out looking for the masked figure," you tell them.

“We need to go after her,” Lu says, leaning up only to wince at the pain.

“You,” Ara says, pushing him back to the ground, “Need to get back to the temple as soon as possible or this will get infected. I say we head back to the temple. Nazz can take care of herself.”

“But what if she doesn’t come back?” Jorraan says, “What if the masked guy captures her or worse or something?”

“We send a search party out if she doesn’t come back,” Ara responds.

Lu shakes his head, “No, it’ll be dark by the time we get back. We won’t be able to find her until the next morning. That’s too much time to be out in the jungle alone.”

Ara furrows her brow and takes a deep breath.

“You’re right,” she says. “Both of you.”

Lu and Jorraan both raise their eyebrows in surprise.

“Pax,” Ara says, “What do you think we should do?”

> “Ara, take Lu back to the temple. Jorraan and I will look for Nazz.”

Jorran you and Ara take Lu warm the masters i will go after Nazz. I know it's not wise to go alone but Jorran you are the steongest and you can easily carry Lu but it will leave you open yo flesh raiders. That's why you will be going with him Ara to protect both of then you two can easily reach the temple and i can track and leave a trail so you and the master can follow.

“Jorraan, Ara, take Lu back to the temple. I’ll find Nazz.”

“Pax, no,” Ara objects.

“I know it’s not wise to go alone. But it’s more dangerous to send only one of you to carry Lu back.”

Jorraan interjects, “I can carry Lu just fine, he’s not even heavy!”

“But can you fight off flesh raiders while you do that? What if you get jumped by ten? Or twenty?”

Jorraan is silent.

“Ara, protect Jorraan and Lu. I’ll catch up with you once I find Nazz,” you order. “If I’m not back by dark, get the Masters to form a search party.”

Ara and Jorraan look deep in thought, searching for a better option.

“He’s right.”

All eyes turn toward Lu, whose voice cracks, “It’s the best option we have right now. Force damn it, this is all because of--”

“Lu,” Ara comforts, “anyone of us could have gotten injured when someone set the bombs off early. It just--”

“It just happened to be me who was stupid. I’m not beating myself up about this any more than I need to. I made a mistake and if I’m going to be a Jedi, I need to make less of those.”

Silence takes over your group once again until Ara puts a hand on your shoulder.

“Pax,” she says, searching for words, “Stay safe. May the Force be with you.”

You nod and take off into the jungles, heading north.

It doesn’t take you long to find Nazz’s tracks. There’s a clear path through the jungle that the masked figure was following. You keep your lightsaber at the ready but no Flesh Raiders come near you. In fact, you can’t seem to hear any animals. No birds, no lizards, no croaks, no calls. Just the wind rustling leaves and the soft sound of your feet on the dirt.

The path you’re following is getting narrower. It’s nearly disappeared. It feels like night with the trees blocking what little sunlight is left. The trees are so thick around this path that you feel as if you’re walking through a tunnel. At the end, light leaks through what you think might be a clearing. You read your lightsaber in your hand, keeping it deactivated and approaching with caution.

You exit the path into a sunset and a large clearing where the ruins of a temple lay. You look up in awe at the fantastic structure that sits before you. What is this place? A temple of the ancient Jedi? You look around and see that outside of the large ruins are a series of smaller ruins that most likely made up some sort of wall. You manage to find on with writing on it and see a word you recognize.

“Kaleth,” you say to yourself, “It means sanctum.”

You’ve heard some masters talk about this place. There were archeology expeditions going on in it but the Jedi just didn’t have the resources to keep it up and they were abandoned. There should be some archeology equipment and old camps here if you end up needing to spend the night looking for that masked man and Nazz.

What will you do?

Hopefully Nazz was smart enough to look for something before going after the masked guy. If she hasn't we migth need some place to reat during the nigth.

By the time you find the old campsite, the sun has set. The stars above you dimly light the sky, giving you just enough light to find the abandoned tent. You notice scorch marks on the ground from blaster fire and wonder what could have done that. On the ground not far from the campsite are parts of a broken droid. You set up an area to sleep in the old tent and light a small fire as you begin to meditate, reaching out with the Force to look for Nazz or the masked figure.

It takes a lot of searching and you almost miss it, but you feel a presence in the Force somewhere in the temple, below ground. It feels almost as if the Force itself is giggling at a joke. This is unmistakably the presence of Nazz. But something isn’t right. You can’t sense her moving or fighting or anything. Is she hiding? Has she been captured? Is she unconscious? You aren’t sure.

But you’re going to find out.

You enter the temple and find a doorway with a staircase leading into a pitch-dark abyss. Turning your lightsaber on, you enter, descending into the depths of the temple.

Once you get to the bottom, the Force swirls around you and the presence of Nazz that you sensed before is lost in a swirl of energy, dark and light, that flows around you. At the edge of the darkness, you hear clicks and snaps as if something is lurking just out of your range of sight.

What do you do?

> Stay quiet, keep looking for Nazz.

You stay quiet, trying to search for Nazz with the light of your lightsaber, ignoring the creeping feeling that you are being watched. The silver light of your blade washes out most color from your surroundings, leaving you shrouded in an eery gray in a sea of black. You walk for what seems like hours, your feet sore and your eyes sagging without finding anything. You’re not even sure you could make your way back to the entrance if you tried. This seems more of a labyrinth than a temple.

In the far distance, you perceive a form in the darkness. Maybe your eyes are just playing tricks on you. No, as you get closer, you recognize the white cloak. It’s the masked man. He’s lying on the ground, slumped over. Is he sleeping? Dead? You approach and kick the body. It doesn’t move. You look for signs of wounds and see none. Finally, you turn the body over and reach for the mask. At first, it doesn’t come off. You notice the latch on either side and undo them.

The mask slides off, revealing a slack mouthed, wide-eyed, dead Nazz.

You gasp, stumbling backward in surprise only to run directly into a body. You swirl around to see the masked figure.

“I see you’ve found us.”

A lightsaber appears in his hand, activating a crimson red beam. The masked figure raises his arm to slash at you. You hold up your own lightsaber but find it isn’t in your hand. You must have dropped it when you saw Nazz. Was that Nazz?

The red lightsaber and the masked man turn to sand as they make contact with you. You cough, feeling around the ground for your lightsaber or for Nazz’s body. You find neither.

An illusion? A vision? What’s going on?

What do you do?

You take a deep breath and close your eyes. The Force is with you. You allow the swirling energy around you to become an extension of yourself. At first, you feel like you’re being torn in half by a typhoon, but soon, it seems as if you’re bending with the wind, not breaking under the pressure. The labyrinth you travel in suddenly seems a straight path. You find your lightsaber only a few feet away and you sense the lingering presence of Nazz in the distance. A few minutes of walking and you see her form balled up on the ground, unconscious, but still breathing.

{ Well done. It seems my friend was wrong about you. }

On instinct, you activate your lightsaber. The voice echoes around the room.

{ Young Jedi, even if you could defeat me, it would bring more trouble than it would be worth. }

The voice is warm, deep, and dark. You see nothing, only feel the air in the room move as if a door was just opened.

{ No slave to Ashla or Bogan would survive these halls. Bogan fights against the wind and breaks, Ashla retreats inward only to be trapped like your friend. }

“Who are you?” you ask, not lowering your saber.

The voice seems to chuckle, a laugh that dances across the shadows just out of your vision.

{ I } the voice says, { have instructed my servants to leave you be. }

As the echo of the voice fades, you hear more noise in the shadows, the clicking of gears and ticking of metallic footsteps.

{ As for who I am }

The voice leaves you in silence again before a chuckle reverberates through the room.

{ Oh dear, I’ve forgotten, haven’t I? I suppose you may just call me Kaleth. }

“I don’t want any trouble, Kaleth. Will you allow us to leave?”

As you say this, you hear Nazz stirring behind you.

Kaleth laughs again

{ Leave? I suppose you could, but what a waste that would be. No, boy, I want you to come find me. }

“Find you?” you wonder.

{ Allow me to...sweeten the deal. }

“Pax?” you hear Nazz mutter as she rubs her head.

“Nazz--”

As you say this, your lightsaber closes on its own and you’re knocked to the stone ground, getting up quickly and turning on your lightsaber to find that you are completely alone.

“Nazz!” you yell, only for your voice to echo back into the empty room.

{ Find me, and I shall return your friend. }

You spin around, searching the darkness for the source of the clicking and clanking all around you. No shapes reveal themselves out of the shadows and you’re left as the lone source of light in an endless sea of darkness.

{ Focus now, boy. You know where I am. Trust your instincts. }

You feel the Force flowing through you like wind, like a current rushing to escape to the outside. Maybe at the center of that, is whoever took Nazz. You breathe and calm yourself and begin to move forward.

{ Clever boy, clever! That’s right! The Force flows off of something strong here. Follow it to the source! You have a good sense about you, I’ll say that. }

You move through the ebb and flow of light and dark energy washing over you in waves, staying calm and focused throughout, not allowing yourself to be taken by the emotions that seem to emanate from the darkness or to block yourself from feeling them at all as the waves of light almost force you to do.

{ Boy, you’ve proved your senses are keen and your heart true. Now I want to see if that silvery toothpick of yours is worth the weight of its crystal. }

You tense up but continue moving forward. The sound of gears and metal on stone continue in the darkness around you. The voice cackles through the darkness.

{ I haven’t had this much fun in ages! }

You continue silently, not allowing the voice to egg you on or break your concentration. You go where the Force leads you, turning off your lightsaber and closing your eyes to concentrate.

{ Turning off the saber? Interesting choice. Wouldn’t it be better to be ready to defend yourself? }

You stay silent.

The sounds around you in the dark increase, as if a crowd was running around you.

{ You should be wary, young Jedi. Walking without a weapon could be dangerous. }

You continue without a word.

{ Force damn you, you’re no better than the droids, are you? }

Your hand touches a wall. Wait, a door!

You open your lightsaber, using its light to find how to open the door.

The noises around you suddenly stop.

{ There you are! Now, droids! Attack! }

A cacophony of noise interrupts your search for a way to open the ancient door.

What will you do?

You pull your arms back and thrust them forward, stopping just an inch short of the ancient door.

There’s a second of silence when the droids in the darkness stop moving, when the voice all around stops speaking, when you stop thinking and allow the Force to flow out of you.

The door flies off its hinges, bathing the room around you in light. You walk into the ancient room and see the remains of broken droids littering the ground.

You open your lightsaber and charge the crowd, slicing through them with ease, pushing a crowd of 5 away with the Force before turning around and slicing through three droids at once. A droid manages to sneak up behind you and get a hit on your bad foot, causing you to wince in pain, but you quickly pay it back by cutting off its legs and then its head.

{ Yes, yes! }

“So?” you say, a little out of breath, “Are you too afraid to show your face now?”

{ Up here boy, up here! }

You look to a set of stairs that leads to a small platform, covered in debris.

“I’m through playing games, whoever you are. Show me your face. Show me my friend,” you order.

{ I’ll show you your friend once you pick me up }

“Pick...you up?”

You notice the droids lingering in the doorway, looking inside with some kind of curiosity.

You walk up the few steps onto the small platform.

You kick around the debris a bit.

{ Hey! Careful! }

You look down at what you just kicked and spot a lightsaber.
