Jedi Order: Bread Basket
OOC Date: August 5, 2019
Location: Jedi Enclave Ruins, Dantooine
Participants: Yuun, Rey, Zandra naMuriel, Elrych Cometburn, Aryn Cole
Dantooine, Dantooine System
Dantooine was a good place to be. Too remote to be an effective location for testing a super weapon and far away from most of galactic civilization. The planet was effectively one big grazing field for nerfs and other herd animals. Lots of Ranches and Moister Farms, sold to more in hospitable places like Jakku and Tatooine.
Perhaps this is why the Old Jedi Order on Coruscant created the Enclave in secret here to train a more select and prodigal group of padawans. It wasn't the only Enclave in the history of the order... but it was the last before the fall. The others marred by catastrophic failure of former students turning to the Dark. Likely, that's what happened here too.
Elrych has his hand out the window, the other on the speeder controls as he drives the multi-seater convertible across the grasslands towards the Enclave Ruins. "I hear it's totally a snooze fest. Everything has been picked clean. Besides, what are we even looking for? That darn vision we had on Tython was like... really vague." He looks at the others, his sunglasses reflecting mirror images in a wide angle of what he looks at back.
He's somewhat right about the ruins initial appears. It is rather unimpressive. Mostly Stone work, worn away statues. Only one tower/spire remains and it's just half of one side. Vegetation is practically consuming it along with local wild life. Elrych brings the speeder to a halt, shuts it off, and hops out. He steps forward, adjusting his glasses, before putting his hands on his hips. "Huh... well then." The wind blows slightly, causing his wavey hair to tossle up to one side. His robe moves a bit too revealing his black and gold saber hanging from his belt.
Aryn emerges from one side of the speeder and shuts the hatch behind her, if there was a hatch. Unlike those in her company, she has elected to wear a dark armor set with a shadowsilk poncho that conceals much of her upper and mid body. She wears tall custom boots whose impacts make little noise, even when she stomps. "I must not have had the same vision. I don't think I've even been to Tython." Aryn admits, stepping closer to observe the ruins. It takes a moment for the feeling to set in, but Aryn trembles a bit. "This place smells of old blood." Her hands go to her hips before she's walking toward the ruins carelessly allowing her hair to be caught by the wind.
Zan has a light in one hand, though it's not turned on yet. She has been quiet along the way here, perhaps not unexpectedly. She often is. The young Jedi wannabe glances over at Elrych, listening to what he says, and she smiles lightly. "Perhaps so, but it is worth seeing what is here. If nothing else, there is history here, and we should learn what we can." She comes out of the speeder as well, perhaps just before Aryn. For her part, she's dressed in those hooded robes and cloak, though she's got a jumpsuit of some sort on beneath, the bright green colour showing every so often.
Yuun jumps out of the speeder, fresh and excited. "This is going to be fun." he says to them all. "Granted I've been thinking we really should go looking at a lot of the old temples and enclaves and see what we can find, honestly I feel things would be hidden that only a force user or Jedi could only find." eh says as he looks at them.
Rey is the last to leave the speeder, and she does so with her hooded exterior robe folded over her forearms, and the tan clothes she wears beneath it covering her form. She reaches inside the speeder while the others talk to grab onto the strap of her satchel and pull it from the vehicle.
Hooking it over her shoulders so the strap criss-crosses her torso she adjusts it, and then moves to slip the heavier external robe on over her shoulders and partially bare arms.
Her eyes scan the ruins and she just seems to be quietly inwardly focused... But she breaks free of those thoughts and looks to her companions. "There's always hope." She says, showing a light smile then before she'll start to move toward their ultimate goal, this temple.
Elrych looks to Aryn, and raises a brow. "No? I swear you were there... huh." It was a while ago, and his brain might still be scrambled from being frozen in carbonite. Zandra knows his feels. The Corellian Jedi Initiate steps further towards and into the ruins looking around though shaded blue eyes. "It basically just kinda said: answers are on Dantooine. Just not in so many words. We saw this big Triangle shaped ship blast off this way after some conflict on Tython where the Order was born." He kicks some rocks away, attempting to read some of the faded language on some of the stones.
All technology has been robed from this place. Wires stripped of their useful and profitable elements which leaves it without any power. Elrych looks over his shoulder at Aryn, "Old Blood... yeah. I was reading some of the books from Tython. This place predates even the Order on Coruscant. It's seen plenty of Jedi come and go. There's probably a footprint of some sort here." He can't really pic up anything other than that tidbit. He moves to inspect on of the statues. "Wonder who this guy is..."
Stepping inside requires some lights in the circular sections of the enclave that aren't sectioned and open to the elements. Were it not for its age and the musty smell, it would be a beautiful location for an enclave, and even a garden given how fertile the land seems. Aryn sticks with the group for the most part observing the walls and old scriptures, but she doesn't touch anything. The light she produces comes from a baton of soft orange, and she holds it up along one wall to see its surface. "That's interesting."
Zandra follows along to the temple, checking out the bits she can see, here and there. She turns her light on, a soft glow emanating from the small item she's got in hand. "I remember that there often are symbols used to mark hidden passage ways and other things," she says. "And really, if there's anything we're going to find that hasn't been picked all over a hundred times already, it's going to need to be something hidden and not easily found." She starts to look at some of the writing on the walls, frowning a bit, as she does so. "It's - I think there's a pattern here, but I can't quite figure it out."
Yuun turns on his glow stick and as he walks along with the others, he slows down a little bit. His eyes adjust to the lighting and darkness and he smirks a little bit. "I think I've seen this before." eh says to them. "Give me a little bit, if we aren't in any rush I can try to see what it says."
Rey remains at the back of the group, she has her hood up even though they're in a relatively private place, because it offers a bit of seclusion to the ambiance and allows her to focus where she's looking, in a place that could indeed hold secrets.
Her eyes pass over the backs of the others before her and she draws in a breath of the moist air. "Its possilbe that there are hidden passages here, as there were on Tython." She quietly comments to the others.
She has a light on her belt, but it yet remains attached to it. Her eyes wander to the statue spoken of, but she doesn't recognize the face or is able to put a name to it.
Elrych puts his hands on his hips and just stares at the statue of the Krevaaki male wearing robes and holding what appears to be a simple staff. "Looks like a real tough guy." He then turns to look at the others as they gather around the symbols. "Man that's just all a bunch of gibberish to me." He looks back towards the statue. "I really feel like he's judging me you know? This place gives me a kind of weird feeling. Like that feeling on the train back on Vandor."
Aryn remains where she was before, angling her light over the wall and working her way in. There's nothing of particular interest, but it's been the strategy to finding hidden passages in her travels. Go over everything. There's no rush right? Aryn remains quiet, content to look over the ruins at her own speed.
Zan glances up to see who Elrych is talking about and she meanders over to look at that statue. She puzzles over it a bit, moving her light this way and that, before she says, "Jedi Master - Vodo- Sio." She pauses, shaking her head. "Not quite. One moment. "Oh! It's got an sk. Jedi Master Vodo-Siosk Baas. Revered for building this enclave." She beams, as she puzzles that out. "Wow, I think this is something else. Who builds a place with all this writing on the walls anyway?"
She turns to look back at the walls again, concentrating. Whether the jedi master is judging or not, not much she can do about it. It probably does take a little time, but then Zan says, "I see - the symbols that represent the Force and they spell a sentence. Or words, anyway. Maybe it's Shining Cave safe." Zan takes a deep breath. "or is it Cafe?"
Yuun takes a long moment and just paying attention to the symbols and such which jumps out at him. Turning to look at the statue, opening himself to the Force and focusing on whats around him. "That is Jedi Master Vodo-Siosk Baas." he says to everyone. "Some of the wording and such is starting to come to me. I know this part says Under Baas. I'm still trying to gather what else it says or means."
Rey walks about the perimeter, not very far away, just off to the side a bit, letting her own eyes wander and take in the sights. There's a lot here she doesn't recognize though so she's soon to reach for a small recording device on her belt to hold up and snap images of things to research closely later.
She looks back to the statue when Zandra identifies the figure's name. "Well done." She says to her, and to Yuun as they collaborate on it. She then snaps a picture of the statue in-question.
"For a thousand generations the Jedi strove to pass on what they knew to the others amongst their ranks. Sadly... much of it has been lost. As I said to Yuun a few nights ago, its like we're trying to build a puzzle that we know we're missing many of its pieces. But even still..." She looks around a little more exhales lightly. "I think we're starting to see a picture in said puzzle."
"This was just one part of a much larger structure. At one point. Not all of it was made from stone so it got taken for scrap or by the elements I presume. This was probably a more 'sacred' area." Elrych says to Zandra. He blinks listening to what his compatriots speak of, laughing at Zandra. "Hah... maybe the guy really liked his Caff so he hid it away so no one but him could find it. Hah!" Then taking in both their words, he reads it back to them. "Shining Cave Safe. Under Baas..." He turns to look back at the Statue, "You've got to be kidding me..." He walks over to it and starts to look around. "I don't know how this is going to move without any power." He struts right up to the thing and tries to push it over. He looks patently ridiculous doing so. Elrych 0, Statue 1.
Aryn has finally made it to where a few of the others are and watches as Elrych and Yuun examine the statue. She spots that the statue appears to be slotted into place, like it can be lifted up and moved. Though, trying to call upon the force to perform such an action leaves her head hurting. She pulls her hand back and massages her temples quietly.
Zandra turns to give Elrych a disbelieving look as he tries - well, she's not so sure what it might be he's trying. She frowns a bit, concentrating. It's perhaps visible when she centers herself, and then she reaches out a hand as she tries with the Force as well, echoing Aryn. With perhaps a bit more success. The ground starts to rumble somewhat, and the statue might start to move up just a tiny bit, if you squint. There's still a long way to go, but Zan has a start on it. If she can hold it.
Turning to look at the others and feeling the force all around them, "There are always secrets. The material really doesn't matter, but again these temples are old, I feel the Jedi weren't fools about their more prized possessions." he states. He too holds out his hand and focuses on the statue and lends Zandra a hand.
Rey's eyes glance to Aryn as the other woman steps nearer to them and now they're all eyes-on to the statue. She doesn't want to interfere with the Initiates as they have the right idea, to use the Force to manipulate the statue and reveal what secrets may lie there-in... but at the same time, they're here not to damage anything if at all possible.
So as the others focus and call upon the Force to manipulate the energies that bind the statue together, she... just sort've aims to help and make sure that it stays steady and doesn't tip or crumble. It would be a shame for their presence here today to be the moment where the Jedi Master's honored sculpture were to see its end.
The statue is carefully moved, its carefully set aside and when the dust settles out from beneath it as it gently moved through the air... it settled to reveal a secret passageway beneath it.
Rey steps toward it, but pauses just enough to look down inside. With a slight exhale, her shoulders shift up and then down. "I think I'm going to have to teach a lesson in how to design hidden passageways when we get back..." She looks to the others. "I better brush up on my architectural design knowledge... its a bit lacking." Rey is being funny! Or so she thinks. With a slight smirk, she steps back again and motions to them. "Adventure awaits..."
She hasn't yet sensed any danger in this mostly somber place, so far at least.
Elrych steps away from the statue, watching it rise up and over. "Yeah I totallly just wanted you guys to do all the work. Like I didn't forget I was a space wizard or anything." The young Corellian blushes, absolutely embarrassed he forgot he could do something like that. However, that's what he's here for, to learn from mistakes and oversights. Regardless, the moves over and looks down into the dark hole with the stairs that now rests where the statue did. "Creepy..." It smells musty and old, a cold breeze flows out from it now that it's open. "Alright... lets do this." He had half a thought to maybe start hiring out the Explorers Guild to find this stuff but there was a certain thrill and reward in them doing on their own. He cracks a glow stick and starts down the stairs. "Yeah, Rey-rey we totally need some secret underground layers. I mean, it's gimmicky how often we find them but gosh darn it it's just so fun!"
The move down a few feet and into a straight passage way. It's all rocky... Only about a Hundred feet in does it open up into complete darkness. Except up above them, the roof sparkles and shines like the twinkling night sky. Elrych withdraws his saber and turns it on, its brilliant blue light reflecting off his shades and illuminating the general area. The cave is much smaller than it seemed in darkness. It is lined with the familiar Adegan Crystals that some of them have in their blades from Illum. "There are Crystals here?" The Corellian Jedi says in shock. "This is way less cold than Illum..."
Beyond them are a few desks, work stations with old Lightsaber Parts. In the center of the room is some type of lab equipment, a broken containment vial in the center. There are two bed rolls off to either far side of the dead-end crystal cave, both have hooded figures heavily decomposed laying in them.
Aryn is among the last to go down into this cave/passage. She's not so sure about going underground, especially with a facility as old as this one seemed. Foundations and structural integrity could give for any reason sometimes, and there'd be nothing to save them from joining the dirt and stone forever then.
She pushes back the uncertainty and follows, splitting from the group when she's able to see there's decaying bodies nearby. She wraps the shadowsilk over her nose and uses the light baton to knock away all the spider webs to discern some details about their friends here.
"One is male, I can tell by the bone structure.. the other... yep, she's a girl." Aryn coughs softly, catching a whiff, thankful the shadowsilk is enough to keep the debris she's stirred up from entering her nose.
Zan follows along, glad that the statue is safely put down. She's feeling a bit tired for a bit, after that tk push they all shared. Still, she does try to look around, curious to see if there's anything she can find. Her light is held up and moved around as she takes a look. Course, at this point, she's still chuckling over her cafe gaffe, if only under her breath, and she doesn't really see much of anything. At least not anything useful. With there being bodies there, she totally leaves those to Aryn, and stays in the middle of the room, glancing about to see if there's anything she might notice on a second look see.
Smiling at the effort they all were able to exert, the glances at Elrych shaking his head, "Your not space wizard, you're a Jedi Initiate man. Come on, even in joking use your title, it means something. With whoever is leading, Yuun moves easily towards the passage and after a few head in, he follows. Looking back at Rey, "Come on." he cracks a grin and moves down the passage. He sees that Aryn splits off from the group, "Really." he says as she finds the two bodies. "Lets see if they have any id or something to identify who they are." he says as he moves with great care not wanting to disturb their bodies too much. "I'm sorry for what's happened, thank you for service to the Force." he says to two gone Jedi. He bows his head, "Stay one with the Force."
Rey's eyes are drawn up to the glittering ceiling inside of the passage, and its soon there-after that she's pulling up her own light off of her belt. Electing not to use the saber dangling on the left side of her hip, but rather just a simple glowstick that comes on with a snap (its left over from the mines of terror that Aryn knows all too well about).
She steps to a wall and reaches out to brush her fingertips gently against it while she listens to the others speaking, her eyes look forward to the hooded remains of the two deceased... she stares upon them, but shows no real expression regarding them.
She steps then to the lightsaber pieces and picks one of them up. She'd used similarly discovered remains to repair the Skywalker hilt that hangs from her belt. After investigating the piece for a moment she sets it back down where she'd found it and she looks forward again to her companions.
As the others look around, someone triggers something. A sensor, a wire. What ever it is it comes from a small emitter next to the desk where the broken glass is. When played the hologram of Master Baas appears and begins to speak. "I had to seal off the cave, we'll have to find another place to harvest crystals from. I left two of my best pupils inside, Tionese siblings by the names of Che and Devin. It is my hope they can hold this evil at bay until I return..." There is static in the message before in continues, "I am not sure what it is but I can fathom that it is as old as the Galaxy or even the Universe its self. I would hypothesize that it is the incarnation of the Dark Side it's self. It simply has one desire and that is to feed and control. It took much energy and concentration just for me to capture and contain it." Another bout of static, "I am taking all my research back to the Adegan System, for the Library there. See what the council can do on this matter. Hopefully, Che and Devin can hold out long enough or else... the caves will be sealed off... indefinitely. If you're finding this it means we were not able to come to a solution and if you continue I warn you not to break the seal on the containment device..." Elrych looks to the containment device, which is broken. His eyes go wide as the vision of the oozing substance in his vision lashing out at him becomes vivid and real. He stumbles back against the cave wall with his blade up in guard position
The body Aryn is inspecting, the young Jedi woman lashes out suddenly. A horrific primitive scream coming from her. "FREEEEEEEEEEEE.... FREEEEEEEEEE. KILLLLLLLLLL!" The Male, Devin, starts to rise then, looking towards the other with sunken black eyes. The smell of Sweet Rot very very present now.
Aryn is hit /hard/ in the chest and she slides noisily backward. She had been clued in by the smell, but the words confirmed it. "Gods damn it!" Aryn cries out, spitting blood to the side and unhooking her lightsaber. A practiced motion sees the blade brought to life with a distinct snap-hiss noise. The sapphire colored blade is distinct in the darkness, and it extends to its full 1.4m in length, humming with every subsequent motion. "Everyone, get back. Now. Do not let it touch you; /it only takes one drop/.. Get back!" Aryn is taking her own advice, but she's preparing to attack. They're vulnerable to lightsabers, she discovered, and she only needs to hit them with hers.
Zan is standing near Rey, just looking idly around, blissfully unaware of the critters that are masquerading as dead bodies. She is clued in at Aryn's cry and the hissing scream that comes from the - things. She backsteps fast, and then fast again. She swallows, eyes widening as she looks that way, and sees what is there. "Oh, no," she breathes, as she fumbles to bring out her own lightsaber. "Oh no no, we can't let this out, right?" Her immediate thought? Don't let the critters get out of this cave, right? Because there's a galaxy of unsuspecting ... food out there, which would probably prefer to not be food. Just like Zan would.
Yuun was on the other side of Aryn and when she is struck he rolls to the opposite side so he's alone on one side while the others are together. His lightsaber came into his hand as he rolled and as he stood the familiar snap-hiss of his weapon igniting is heard as the cool blue blade shines within the darkness, "I'm sorry your bodies are being used like this I will allow you to finally find peace."
The message is listened to and its only a matter of time before the impact of whats going on here starts to truly sink in. "We need to approach this with great cautio--" Rey's own words are cut off by the sudden threat of danger to her friends.
As lightsabers come on and action is jumped to, Rey's hands come up and extend outward. Her satchel hangs at her side just beside her still unequipped and unreadied lightsaber. Her goal here is to reach out and grasp onto the deceased bodies and to hold in them place, to lock them into place with the Force as she had been similarly held perfectly still before, on a number of uncomfortable occasions!
Elrych is nearest Devin who is now running towards him, screaming and laughing almost at the same time. The Corellian Jedi is still effected by the flashback of horror from his carbonite trance induced vision. Thankfully, as Rey reaches out with the force, Both Che and Devin are slowly lifted off the ground. However they don't stop, clawing, kicking, screaming and repeating their mantra. Elrych is breathing heavy, sweaty, his lightsaber up in mid guard as if to defend himself. "What... Aryn, what is this?" He breath quietly.
Aryn weighs the options, and seeing Elrych, who is the nearest to her, clammed up, she moves to his aid, stepping in front of him. Her passing efforts rewards Devin with a devastating blow to his arm, subsequent only to a second blow that impales his leg. Aryn withdraws her weapon attempting to take Che's leg but missing with a loud sounding 'WHOOOMSH'. "No time to explain at current. Take their legs out, and when you can, plunge your weapon into their core. They are weak to fire and lightsabers. If you're uncertain.. stay behind Rey." Aryn backpedals into a sporting defensive stance.
Zan heard Aryn say to stay away, and she didn't have to be told twice. She stays away, alright, but her lightsaber goes flying through the air, in a quick motion, whirring through the air to hit one of the poor dead bodies, before it returns to Zan's hands. She pauses then, to try to center herself and enhance her abilities, if she can.
"Follow what Aryn said, steady yourselves." Yuun calls out to everyone, seeming to keep that laid back attitude though with a bit more of a controlled steadiness in his voice. Seeing as Aryn and Zan attacked the male appirition, Yuun moves in quickly. He didn't want to see these bodies being possessed. With two swift strikes, nothing fancy, Yuun's lightsaber strokes are measure and precise as he strikes. Seeing the male vaporizes, he turns to face the female Knight.
Rey had spoken to Aryn recently about running into this 'stuff' again and how she had apprehensions about how she'd helped deal with these creatures the last time they'd met some of them (it?). Rey had used pyrokinesis abilities that she'd read about in the Jedi texts related to the wielding of powers prominently considered to be that of the Dark Side. Powers that call upon pure, raw, Force to create a means of destruction of life... it had worked, she'd tried it and it had worked, and it had felt good.
The Dark Side of the Force is a slippery slope, not easily returned from once you began to slide down it...
The young Rey stays back and out of the way of the swirling lightsaber blades. Her hands remain up with her fingers splayed apart... her dark eyebrows are held lower of her eyes and her chin is tipped/pointed just softly down as she glares at the re-animated bodies... one is handled, the other yet remains. She keeps conentrating on the Force to hold it still. She doesn't want to try to burn it, not if she doesn't have to.
As they lash out at the Male first, he screams and writhes in pain and the need to be free. Until when Yuun slices through him he dissolves into dust, only his robes and Lightsaber remaining. Elrych looks to Aryn, then to Yuun, then to Rey and Zandra as he stands there sweating and paralyzed. He remembers the code... There is no fear. Taking a deep breath the Jedi steadies himself and starts towards the remaining target, intending to strike out at it. However, he notices it go limp... a bit of gray ooze leaking from it's ear. The struggle has left it which may perplex the others. He blinks and reaches out with two fingers, flicking them up. The groop struggles but is forced back inside the body of the Tionese Knight. The Lifeless Che screams again, this time filled with rage and anger. "FREEEEEE, FREEEEE! KILLLL!"
Devin's disintegration did little to stir Aryn. She watched as the body crumbled, its matter burning up in brief consuming flames that reflected in the young Doctor's eyes. Her head turned toward Che then, and she went on the offensive just ahead of Yuun, crying out when she struck the corpse hard across the chest, pivoted into a small spin, and struck a second time with far more momentum. Her third strike missed, and rather than risk something else, Aryn retreats skillfully for Zandra and Yuun to follow her up.
Zan is a bit wide eyed, but she's keeping her cool. There's a surreal feel to this as Zan steps forward to slash with her lightsaber, turning on the second target which is maybe closer to her. "Not if we can help it," she calls softly. "Definitely not if we can help it." Her saber slashes at the thing, probably pin pricking it, and causing it to laugh more than anything, but the small slash she puts in against its torso will hurt, even as Zan steps back out, wary and fighting very defensively. Again having watched Aryn and Zan attack while Rey and Elrych held the Dead knight, "Control Aryn." he calls to her, his voice is light but there again is that commanding aspect of his voice. He quickly moves in as Zan finishes her attack and with two strikes again, the dead Knight vaporizes. "Go with the Force." he says as he bows his head. Deactivating his lightsaber, Yuun clips his weapon to this belt.
Rey watches the others handling the bulk of the slashing and vaporizing of the poor deceased Jedi. But when its said and done, she hesitates, then lowers her hands... adrenaline can be a challenging thing to let go of instantly after a series of moments like /those/ had been.
When her hands drop back to her sides, Rey steps forward and looks to them, specifically to Aryn since it appeared she'd gotten the brunt of their initial attacks.
"Is everyone okay?" She asks then, visually giving Aryn an once over to see if there had been any sustained injuries she hadn't witnessed, then she looks to the others as well. "I... hadn't expected that 'stuff' to be down here... I'm sorry. I've no idea how long it must've been waiting here for someone to come along."
"I say screw this place and we stick the statue back where it belongs just in case." Elrych says as he disengages his lightsaber and places it back on his belt. He looks towards Aryn to see how she is doing and if she needs any help. There is a quick glance to Yuun as he gives his command. "Woah... man. It's a lot to process." He holds up his hands and takes a breath, the sweat glistening off his skin. "Master Baas said something about Adegan... like the holoimage mentioned back on Vandor..."
The cave is quiet except for the whisper of the wind forcing air from the tunnel.
Aryn deactivates her lightsaber and lowers it, but does not clip it back to her belt yet. There was never a certainty that the substance had been defeated, and being on the guard was the only way to ensure survival. Aryn has a strong desire to leave this passage, and were it not for her companions blocking the way, or in Rey's case, checking on her, she would have done just that.
Aryn's wound was comprised of a strong scratch along her neck where ancient fingers had cut her skin to the point of drawing blood. Her armor was dented in as well, and being that the chest piece was intended for a female, any invasion of space near the chest region made it difficult to breath, even for someone small statured like Aryn. This difficulty show when she begins to struggle against the chest piece a bit, lifting it if only to get some fresh air, but it provides little leeway. Instead, she calms herself using a meditative technique that required her to focus.
When her eyes opened, she seemed to be in a better place. "Trusting in Master Baas' counsel may not be the wisest course. The man sacrificed his pupils to run away." Looking to Rey. "I've had enough of this place. I'll wait above.. I need the air." To the others. "Apologies." Without another word, the short doctor excuses herself and retreats. "But if they couldn't defeat it, how is it we can?" Zandra asks, soberly. Because it's occurred to her, yes it has, that there had to be a reason the Jedi master and gifted students couldn't do what they just did... "were there only the three of them? What ... went wrong back then?" She's busy staring at Aryn, at Rey, over to Yuun, and then to Elrych, then back to Aryn as she waits for the answer to that incredible question - is she okay? And as Aryn retreats, Zan stares after her, stepping out of her way and glancing back at the others. "I don't like this."
Yuun stands there listening, but he is also keeping a mind of himself to pay attention to the here and now. He shakes his head, where did that come from. Still it wasn't a bad idea for him to do, "I know what just happened may have freaked us out." he says in a calm voice, "Still there will be times when we are going to face things like this. I would like to continue looking to see what we can find and maybe gather more information on whatever this is." he says to them.
"I mean appearantly it got out, these two Knights were taken by it and re-animated. We should find out what we can and do what we can to end this.." Shaking his head as the others voice their concerns to leave, Yuun turns to look at Rey, "What do you think we should do?" he asks.
Rey steps out of Aryn's way to let her go, these missions and outings have been pretty hard on Aryn specifically of late, she feels for the young woman. As Aryn goes though, Rey turns to look to Zandra and she draws in a light breath. "There is not much here -too- like." But the other questions from Zan, albeit very good questions, go unanswered, becasue Rey doesn't HAVE answers to them. Its moments like this that she wishes Luke were here, or Leia, or... anyone who had knowledge on the galaxy greater than she does, let alone the Force and its tumultuous and storied history.
Rey looks to Elrych and Yuun, then nods once to them both. "We dealt with this on Naboo. Its terrible stuff. We'll find more answers. All signs are pointing us to the Adegan System..." She states softly, lingering a moment in thought before continuing. "Its time to go." She glances down to the floor where the remains of those hooded figures had been resting all this time. "Bring their lightsabers. Their power sources are likely no longer good, but... we can't leave them laying about like this. Besides... we need the parts." She turns and starts to move for the way back out again.
"I'll prepare to seal this place up once again, so hopefully no one else finds it... Its a tomb now." She adds on her way, glancing down to her side to clip her light source back to her belt, not needing it anymore.
Elrych watches Aryn, he's seen that type of reaction before; In himself. He knows what she is feeling. A look to Zandra, "I don't know... there's something amiss. Maybe they weren't as strong as he thought and I don't think he was runing away. I think he got stuck and needed to confer with other Jedi on the matter of what ever this... was." He glances towards the exit where Aryn went, she had yet to explain her for knowledge on the matter. "We don't have the whole picture. Perhaps that's what Master Baas was trying to convey?" He looks to Rey for her words. The Corellian didn't have the answers either. Everything about this was rather very strange, including his visions. The corellian helps with the collecting of items. Then he would move towards the exit after that task was done and up to the surface. He'd help the others put the statue back in place and even add an extra seal to it.
