Raid on the Sith Embassy A raid was carried out during the Jedi Civil War by Revan , the former Dark Lord of the Sith , and his companions Bastila Shan and Carth Onasi in 3956 BBY . Infiltrating the Sith Empire ' s Embassy in Ahto City on the neutral Outer Rim world of Manaan , the team was tasked with retrieving the encrypted data module from within a disabled Republic submersible probe droid . During the course of the raid , Revan located a number of missing Selkath youth , convinced them to abandon the Sith , and obtained a detailed layout of Darth Malak ' s plan to conquer the planet . The mission was ultimately a success ; however , although the data was retrieved , Revan was put on trial by the Selkath authorities . By revealing the plans of the Sith , however , all charges were dropped and he was freed from their custody . Prelude . Having come to Manaan in search of that world ' s Star Map , as part of his quest to locate the mysterious Star Forge , the amnesiac Revan and the crew of the " Ebon Hawk " sought a way to access the floor of the global ocean . Through a vision experienced by Revan and shared with fellow Jedi and companion Bastila Shan , with whom he was bonded , they knew that this was where it could be found . After seeking out the Republic Embassy located within Ahto City , Revan , Shan , and Onasi met with the diplomat in charge of the Galactic Republic ' s mission there , Roland Wann . Wann , in exchange for his aid , asked that Revan attempt to infiltrate the Sith Empire ' s Embassy in order to recover the data module of a submersible probe droid before its data could be decrypted . This droid had been damaged by firaxan shark s and , due to subtle pressures being applied to the Selkath government by the Sith , it was subsequently captured by their forces before the Republic could retrieve it . In addition , Revan had also agreed to seek out several missing Force - sensitive Selkath youth that had gone missing , having been informed of their location by the Iridonian mercenary who had led them there . Among them was Shasa , the daughter of Shaelas , who had offered a reward in exchange for information on her whereabouts . The invasion . Roland Wann offered Revan a number of ways to perform the actual infiltration . Among them included interrogating a captured Sith operative , who had himself attempted to sneak into the Republic Embassy , in order to get access to the facility . Another option was to attempt to decrypt a crate of blank Sith datacards that the Republic had intercepted ; doing so would allow one of the cards to be used to open the gates of the Embassy . The last , potentially most dangerous , and coincidentally the most direct route was to use a keycard that had been captured from the Sith spy that would grant access to a heavily - guarded docking bay that housed a transport that would take its riders to the base . Inside the base . Once inside the Embassy , things heated up quickly as the party pressed inward . Revan and his companions were soon confronted by a number of Sith trooper s and assault droids , as well as a number of Dark Jedi . Not far within the complex , they found the disassembly room where the recovered probe droid was being taken apart and examined . During the short firefight that followed , the troops and droids guarding it were swiftly overwhelmed and eliminated , allowing Revan to acquire the module . Pressing on , Revan and his comrades encountered yet more Sith troops , droids and Dark Jedi . Using the skills of his companions as well as his own and drawing upon the Force as needed , the party overcame a number of obstacles . These included a malfunctioning series of flow control rooms and a corridor that was filled with blistering - hot steam that led to a computer access terminal . Using this terminal allowed the team to thin the odds even more in their favor by triggering the overloading of barracks electrical conduits and bypassing locked shield walls . The Selkath youth . The trio eventually made their way to the training quarters , where Revan found Galas , a young Selkath , dying after being tortured by the Sith and clutching a small pin . Desperate , the mortally - wounded being thrust the token upon the Jedi , beseeching him to inform Shasa who , along with a number of other Force - sensitive Selkath , was residing in a nearby dormitory . Led by Shasa , the Selkath at first wanted to alert their masters to the presence of intruders . However , Shasa declared that they could not always run to their masters for aid and another apprentice supposed that this must be a test of their abilities . Revan showed Shasa the blood - smeared pin as he attempted to convince her and her friends that the Sith were evil and wished to conquer Manaan for its kolto . With the truth at last revealed to them , the youths left the Embassy , eager to report what was going on to the Ahto City authorities . Conclusion and capture . Confrontation and exfiltration . Revan and his companions went on to confront the Sith Master who had been appointed the head of all Sith activity on Manaan . However , he was forced to slay two more Selkath apprentices , as well as the Master , in order to finish the mission and secure the needed data about the Sith Empire ' s plans to corrupt Manaan ' s youth by drawing them into the dark side . After the brief melee that followed , Revan broke into the Master ' s inner sanctum , cleared out the mines that had been placed there , and acquired the data . Their work finished , the trio of infiltrators then made their way back to the Embassy entrance , encountering and killing Grann , the commander of the Embassy base , along with the guard manning the security checkpoint and a quartet of war droids as they attempted to escape . Arrest . This was not the end of their troubles , however , for shortly after exiting the Embassy they were confronted by a member of the Ahto City Civil Authority and a number of war droids , who placed Revan and his companions under arrest for crimes against the peace and the Sith Empire , including the murder of members of the Ambassadorial Commission . In the trial that followed , it was decided to view Revan as the key defendant , however , the court assigned the somewhat under - zealous Bwa ' lass to serve as his Arbiter . In his defense , Revan simply showed Bwa ' lass the datapad he had secured from the Embassy ; during the trial itself he pleaded " not guilty " and presented the information to the judges . In light of the evidence it contained , all charges against Revan and the crew of the " Ebon Hawk " were dropped , the Sith Empire was banned from Manaan , and their facility in Ahto City was sealed and placed under guard . Behind the scenes . Though the actual mission itself does not have a name , it is based on a quest that the player must accept in order to advance the plot , along with at least two optional side quests . The mission itself does have consequences for the player as well as for the course of the war , since the data gathered from the Sith Master , when presented to the Ahto City Court , results in a hefty fine for the Sith Empire , and a more pro - Republic attitude amongst the Selkath leaders . The mission as stated within this article assumes 100 % completion of the game and the canonical light side storyline . For players who choose the dark path throughout the game , there are other possibilities ; they can choose to leave the Selkath youth at the Embassy to be indoctrinated with the dark side , ignore them completely , or even kill them . In the trial that follows , if Revan did not obtain the data on the Sith corruption plot , they can attempt to persuade the court to find him not guilty by blaming the Republic delegation . Alternatively , the player may state that the Sith lured him / her to the base under the pretext of diplomatic negotiations , after which ( s ) he will be released due to insufficient evidence to convict . However , should such attempts fail , Revan will be executed and the game will end .
