Brothers To The End

[Jaden_Starchaser]

"I trust you Gadeon. You've not given me any reason not to. You've proven to be even headed and decisive," Jaden spoke to the Xexto with a respectful tone.

[Unna Hi Chaanu]

Unna had never left the room. She knew that she would not want to be followed had she been the one to walk away. She stood to greet the other party members as they returned with her typical Stoic expression in her face. She listened to Gadeon speak and after Ni and Duncan's affirmations, she spoke. "Gadeon, I will stand by you. I believe if anyone can unite us as a party, it would be you." Unna looked to Ni with a nod of respect.

[Ashla Marr]

Ashla was still clasping the lightsaber Duncan had given her in her hands. It was hard to believe her master was leaving. It had taken so long to find the Master she had been seeking, waiting for the Force to show her a path forward. It seemed she had her Master only for a short time. She always had looked up to him as a great role model and a good leader. It was hard to see him go. She thought about speaking up and stopping him from leaving, though she had remained silent the entire time as the others spoke. Closing her eyes for a moment she took a deep breath and slowly let it out, collecting herself and controlling herself. She knew her master would return, right now she needed to focus on the mission at hand.

“I will stand with Gadeon as well. I also have a suggestion. We are still attending the meeting with Frijia, so we will go into the palace. One of us will sneak off as the other attend the meeting. The one who sneaks off will locate Owl, and either plant a tracker on him or acquire him."

[Gar]

"We may not need to do any sneaking," said Ni almost monotonously, the loss of Duncan still weighing heavily on her, "I know a man that may know more about the palace official's movements. We could be able to get our objective while it is out of the palace, rather than risking everything to enter it," She turns her face to Unna, "But if that is not an option, we can use a decoy to enter the palace. I know that Auro was once your leader, and he was captured and killed. Did he have any important belongings? We could enter on the premise that we want to negotiate the retrieval of Auro's belongings, namely something that Lysire might also be after. While we are in the palace with these negotiations, we could find a way to run into our objective." The Zeltron peers up at Unna curiously. "How well do you think you know these people? The OPA has a warrent out for your arrest. Do you think this Firja person would turn you in?"

[Ashla Marr]

Ashla took a moment to gather her thoughts. " Actually you're right we don't have to necessarily sneak around. But I do believe going under the invitation to the palace will work. I also believe if one of us goes off we can easily get owl out by informing him that his lover is here. Leading him back to the ship and leaving with him. " then turned to Unna " I apologize for my interruption. "

[Gar]

Ni smiled. "Interesting idea, Little Flower. But this person would need to be good at lying. Also, we would need to have a permit ready to leave the planet at a certain time, to guarantee our escape."

[Unna Hi Chaanu]

"It is okay," Unna said to Ashla. "In addition to that, I could easily contact Trarkin through telepathy before we go to the palace. That way nobody will see me using the force."

She then turned to Ni. "Auro had something that Jenna wishes for me to retrieve from Graff. Holocrons, actually. She claims to believe that the darkness within Graff could be purged if I could get to the holocrons. The issue with Jenna is that she is able to use the force to scramble my senses. She once made it so that I sensed everything she said was a lie, even though the truth was in front of me."

"Excuse me..." Unna turned to go sit in a corner. "I will contact Frija..."

[Gar]

Ni frowned. "Well, I suppose we don't have to actually get the holocrons. We could just make it look like that is what we are here for..." Then her eyes lit up, "Wait, if you can contact Tarkin through telepathy, then why not just tell him Demaya is here to see him? Then we won't have to do anything risky."

[Unna Hi Chaanu]

"I will not deceive him. Lying is risky and I am not good at it. What I will do is contact him and tell him that I will take him to Demaya. That is something I can intend to make true. I really do want to retrieve the holocrons."

[aipsylon]

"I am hearing convoluted plans starting to take place, a number of good ideas as well, as I have heard this far out objectives are retrieve the holograms, retrieve Tarken, and get off world before Graff arrives. Are there any other objectives we wish to accomplish?" Gadeon let his eyes run across each member present to be sure they did not feel like they could not speak.
