NJO 12

CoilToday at 10:58 PM

sets a course for the bigger one.

CalebToday at 11:00 PM

As you come in for a landing Coil you notice that the landing area you chose appears to have been freshly carved and is exactly the perfect fit for your ship.

CoilToday at 11:00 PM

... huh.

Esren'nilosToday at 11:00 PM

"Everything ok?"

CoilToday at 11:00 PM

... nice new landing pad.

ZubiToday at 11:02 PM

Fancy!

CalebToday at 11:04 PM

As you were landing if anyone looked out the only race you would have seen on the street would have been Iktochi

ZubiToday at 11:05 PM

Oh, neat! I haven't seen many of them around.

Esren'nilosToday at 11:06 PM

"Guess this place isn't much of a hub world."

ZubiToday at 11:07 PM

Let's go see!

CalebToday at 7:33 PM

Ok so previously you all got back from Coruscant and talked to some of the Jedi learners you especially caught up with Voro and Li you then talked to  Jedi Ugris.

Esren'nilosToday at 7:34 PM

spied on him a bit, too.

CalebToday at 7:35 PM

After that discussion and handing the sword off to him you went searching for Jedi Mindit and discussed Zubis download of the holocron

[7:36 PM]

When Zubi tried to hand it over she collapsed as she did  Mindit was thrown back and the holocron fell to the ground near Zubi while Coil caught her

[7:36 PM]

And that is where we pick up.

Esren'nilosToday at 7:37 PM

"Is she ok?!?"

CalebToday at 7:39 PM

Mindit is a little shaken but gets up “that’s unusual”

Esren'nilosToday at 7:39 PM

"...can we do something?!?"

[7:41 PM]

"...can YOU do something?!?  Coil?!?  Somebody?!?"

CalebToday at 7:42 PM

Mindit closes her eyes for a minute

[7:43 PM]

The holocron seems to roll towards Zubi

[7:44 PM]

Zubi the visions close in on you again as you hand it over you see the wookie approaching again and seem to start to speak but then you come too in Coils arms with a pounding headache

CoilToday at 7:44 PM

checks her pulse.

ZubiToday at 7:44 PM

starts.

CalebToday at 7:44 PM

((Her pulse seems normal))

ZubiToday at 7:44 PM

Ow. Owwwwwww.

Esren'nilosToday at 7:45 PM

"Zubi?!?"

CoilToday at 7:45 PM

Are you okay?

ZubiToday at 7:45 PM

My head hurts a lot.

Esren'nilosToday at 7:45 PM

will move the holocron closer to her.

CalebToday at 7:46 PM

((How do you move it Esren?))

Esren'nilosToday at 7:46 PM

will roll it.

[7:47 PM]

will use his hand, not the force.

CalebToday at 7:47 PM

((Give me a wis save ))

ZubiToday at 7:47 PM

snuggles into Coil a bit.

CoilToday at 7:48 PM

holds onto her.

Esren'nilosToday at 7:48 PM

((Natural 20, 22 total))

CalebToday at 7:49 PM

You manage to roll it closer you feel yourself almost thrown back by it but you manage to keep your footing

[7:50 PM]

Zubi  As it bumps into your foot your headache fades a little bit is still there

Esren'nilosToday at 7:50 PM

"Oh that figures.  This is what doesn't like me!"

ZubiToday at 7:50 PM

Well, at least it's got Jedi in it.

[7:51 PM]

picks it up.

CalebToday at 7:51 PM

Mindit: It doesn’t like anyone.

[7:51 PM]

Zubi the headache is almost completely gone now

[7:52 PM]

Mindit : so you get visions of people or experiences from it?

ZubiToday at 7:52 PM

... the headache is gone now.

[7:52 PM]

Yes. Usually a very pretty Wookiee Jedi.

CoilToday at 7:52 PM

Well.  I didn’t end up bound to a powerful Force relic.  Should I be happy or left out?

ZubiToday at 7:53 PM

Do you like headaches?

Esren'nilosToday at 7:53 PM

"I didn't get bound to anything."

[7:53 PM]

"...things just like me."

CalebToday at 7:53 PM

Mindit: Lucky , these things usually don’t work out well, from what we know.

CoilToday at 7:53 PM

Happy, then.

CalebToday at 7:54 PM

Mindit : where did you find it?

ZubiToday at 7:54 PM

In the temple on Coruscant.

CalebToday at 7:56 PM

Mindit : how did the force feel there? If you could feel it?

ZubiToday at 7:56 PM

In a lot of the temple it was awful.

[7:57 PM]

But the holochron didn't feel that way.

CoilToday at 7:57 PM

Lots of old ghosts.

CalebToday at 7:58 PM

Mindit seems to be getting distracted from the conversation and seems deep in thought.

Esren'nilosToday at 7:59 PM

"...Master?  ...is everything ok?"

CalebToday at 8:01 PM

Mindit: ...the holocron seems to have split , but also not .

Esren'nilosToday at 8:01 PM

"......................I think I understand less now than I did before."

ZubiToday at 8:03 PM

... how can it be split and not split? That doesn't make sense.

CoilToday at 8:04 PM

.... what?

CalebToday at 8:05 PM

Mindit: you need a Vergence

CoilToday at 8:06 PM

A Vergence?

ZubiToday at 8:06 PM

What's that?

Esren'nilosToday at 8:06 PM

"I think she's making up words now."

CalebToday at 8:07 PM

Mindit gives Esren a look.

[8:07 PM]

Mindit : a place where the force flows more freely than others

CoilToday at 8:08 PM

Is there one here?

[8:09 PM]

And how will it help?

ZubiToday at 8:09 PM

Well, there's the meditation chamber.

CalebToday at 8:10 PM

Mindit: the one here is not ideal ... it could be used but it would be risky .

Esren'nilosToday at 8:10 PM

"Where would you recommend?"

ZubiToday at 8:11 PM

Why would it be risky? It wasn't... bad, or anything, the last time I went in there.

CalebToday at 8:12 PM

Mindit: the Vergennce here , still has remnants of the sith temple influencing it.

[8:13 PM]

Mindit: you need to find a place where you can move the knowledge back into the holocron safely.

ZubiToday at 8:14 PM

Oh.

CalebToday at 8:14 PM

Mindit: a vergence will make it more likely to succeed

ZubiToday at 8:14 PM

... how do we find it?

CoilToday at 8:16 PM

Would a Sith-influenced vergence be dangerous?

CalebToday at 8:17 PM

Mindit: given where you found it especially yes , it would make the process more difficult if not impossible.

CoilToday at 8:18 PM

So we need a Light Side vergence.

Esren'nilosToday at 8:18 PM

"Does the temple know of one?"

CalebToday at 8:23 PM

Mindit: a couple potentially come to mind  but you could look for your own.  The two planets  I know of potentially would be Nam Chorios or Iktoch.

CoilToday at 8:24 PM

Iktotch... didn't someone mention Ikotch recently?

ZubiToday at 8:25 PM

((I do not remember!))

CalebToday at 8:26 PM

((Only Esren  heard that))

Esren'nilosToday at 8:26 PM

".........Iktoch.  Iktoch is where we should begin."

[8:26 PM]

"Coil, can you get us there?"

CoilToday at 8:26 PM

((Oh, right!))

[8:26 PM]

nods.

[8:26 PM]

I did a job there once.

Esren'nilosToday at 8:27 PM

"...there's a temple there, Master Mindit.  ...will we be able to find that temple?"

ZubiToday at 8:29 PM

I'm sure we could find it if we went there.

CalebToday at 8:31 PM

Mindit: If you are meant to.  Once you find a vergence you need to focus on remaking the holocron make sure to focus on it in the crystal and not in you, if all three of you do it it will have a higher chance of working .

Esren'nilosToday at 8:31 PM

nods

CalebToday at 8:32 PM

Mindit: may the force be with you.

[8:32 PM]

Mindit leaves

ZubiToday at 8:32 PM

... remaking it, wait, how do we remake a...

Esren'nilosToday at 8:32 PM

"...so...do we need another crystal?"

ZubiToday at 8:33 PM

Well, I know you brought back extras.

CoilToday at 8:33 PM

nods.

ZubiToday at 8:33 PM

looks at Coil.

CoilToday at 8:33 PM

I have some.

Esren'nilosToday at 8:33 PM

"We do, yes."

ZubiToday at 8:33 PM

... do you think you can figure it out?

Esren'nilosToday at 8:35 PM

"No idea."

CoilToday at 8:35 PM

watches the door where Mindit disappeared.  "... that was not terribly helpful."

[8:36 PM]

You ever get the feeling they only barely know what they're doing?

Esren'nilosToday at 8:36 PM

"That's a terrifying but....seemingly accurate thought."

ZubiToday at 8:36 PM

It's not really important to know what you're doing if you're listening to what you're supposed to be doing.

CoilToday at 8:37 PM

We barely know what we're doing, but we're not telling people we're Jedi Masters.

Esren'nilosToday at 8:38 PM

"Well, no time to waste, I guess.  We should get back to the ship."

CoilToday at 8:38 PM

nods.

Esren'nilosToday at 8:40 PM

heads that way

CoilToday at 8:40 PM

helps Zubi up.

ZubiToday at 8:41 PM

stands up, and heads for the ship after Esren.

CalebToday at 8:43 PM

As you all leave the temple and head to the ship you hear a loud like thunderclap  and feel a shockwave come through I need Dexterity saving throws

Esren'nilosToday at 8:44 PM

((17))

ZubiToday at 8:44 PM

((11!))

CalebToday at 8:45 PM

((11 for Coil))

[8:45 PM]

Esren you manage to stay standing  Zubi and coil you are knocked to the ground

Esren'nilosToday at 8:46 PM

goes to help them up.  "What now?!?"

CoilToday at 8:47 PM

((Where did the shockwave seem to come from?))

CalebToday at 8:48 PM

((Off to the east of the temple like in the woods right next to it away from the ship landing area which would be to the westish for frame of reference))

ZubiToday at 8:49 PM

We should go and look! Someone might have gotten hurt.

CoilToday at 8:50 PM

nods, and heads that way.

Esren'nilosToday at 8:50 PM

sighs.  "Yeah, we should."

[8:50 PM]

follows Coil.

ZubiToday at 8:50 PM

hurries after them!

CalebToday at 8:53 PM

You all arrive at a small clearing just after everyone else go there you see the other learners and Mindit and Ugris brushing himself off and picking up the sword from the ground , the gem is missing from the hilt.

ZubiToday at 8:54 PM

Are you all right?

Esren'nilosToday at 8:55 PM

"...I'm pretty sure we warned you about that."

CalebToday at 8:55 PM

Ugris : yes little more of a shock than I was expecting.

ZubiToday at 8:56 PM

Is the sword all right now?

CalebToday at 8:56 PM

Ugris: It should be.

[8:58 PM]

Ugris hands it over to Esren.

ZubiToday at 8:59 PM

eyes the sword. "You had better behave."

Esren'nilosToday at 8:59 PM

takes the sword.

[8:59 PM]

gives it some trial swings.

CalebToday at 9:00 PM

Ugris looks around after he does that “can’t see the gem anywhere”

ZubiToday at 9:00 PM

... maybe it was destroyed.

CalebToday at 9:01 PM

Esren  seems to move well and is balanced decently it is a little rough where the gem used to be and is hard to grip right now.

[9:01 PM]

Ugris: ...perhaps.

[9:02 PM]

Everyone starts to leave the clearing

Esren'nilosToday at 9:02 PM

"Welp...I got a sword now."

[9:02 PM]

will strap it to his back.

[9:03 PM]

"....back to the ship?"

CoilToday at 9:04 PM

... you had a lightsaber.

ZubiToday at 9:04 PM

He still does.

[9:05 PM]

... back to the ship. We should check on Anakin and Ahsoka anyway.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:05 PM

"I still have a lightsaber.  And now I have a sword."

[9:05 PM]

heads for the ship.

ZubiToday at 9:06 PM

follows.

CalebToday at 9:08 PM

You all make it to the ship, entering the goats have gotten loose one is chewing on the captains chair and the other comes up to your group as you enter the ship.

ZubiToday at 9:09 PM

... we really are going to have to build an enclosure. Naughty Anakin. Naughty.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:09 PM

"Annie!  Bad!"

[9:09 PM]

will round them up.

CoilToday at 9:09 PM

gets the ship ready to launch.  "I'll work on it while we're on the way.

ZubiToday at 9:10 PM

I can help! If you want.

CalebToday at 9:10 PM

You manage to secure them in a corner of the ship

CoilToday at 9:11 PM

nods.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:12 PM

will go sit with the goats, so they don't move while we take off.

CalebToday at 9:12 PM

Coil you start the startup sequence and program in the trip to Iktoch

ZubiToday at 9:12 PM

sticks with Coil.

CalebToday at 9:16 PM

The ship leaves Ashas Ree you see it getting smaller and you all make your first hyperspace jump

CoilToday at 9:16 PM

All right.  Should be easy enough to rig up some of the cargo netting we're not using.

ZubiToday at 9:17 PM

... is it made of metal?

CoilToday at 9:17 PM

nods.

ZubiToday at 9:17 PM

It has to be something they can't eat or they'll just keep getting out.

CoilToday at 9:17 PM

It's a metal mesh.

ZubiToday at 9:17 PM

Oh, good.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:18 PM

"That'd work...probably.  They can't eat metal, right?"

CoilToday at 9:18 PM

Hopefully not.

CalebToday at 9:20 PM

You all work on rigging up a makeshift mesh pen for the goats.

ZubiToday at 9:20 PM

I don't think they can eat metal.

[9:20 PM]

helps! Probably mostly by holding things while other people do the real work.

CalebToday at 9:23 PM

You all manage to get it rigged up pretty easily

[9:24 PM]

Ashoka is easy to get in Anakin is a little tougher but you manage to get them both in the pen.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:25 PM

"I see Anakin's gonna be a handful."

ZubiToday at 9:26 PM

He is very sweet.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:26 PM

"Is that what we're calling it?"

ZubiToday at 9:28 PM

Well, I would use the same word for you, you know.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:28 PM

smiles.  "Fair enough."

[9:29 PM]

"....focus on the crystal.  We've got from here to Iktoch to figure out what that means."

CoilToday at 9:29 PM

Do holocrons have crystals?

Esren'nilosToday at 9:30 PM

"...........I don't know."

ZubiToday at 9:31 PM

I don't know either.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:31 PM

"I guess they do.

ZubiToday at 9:32 PM

... who makes them, anyway?

[9:32 PM]

takes out the holochron and examines it.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:33 PM

"..........a Jedi, I guess."

CoilToday at 9:34 PM

Yeah, I don't know if anyone knows how to make them anymore.  I'd like to learn.

ZubiToday at 9:35 PM

... if I try to give it to you, will it hurt me again?

CoilToday at 9:35 PM

Maybe we shouldn't risk it.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:36 PM

"This could be the best place to try it.  But I expect it will."

ZubiToday at 9:36 PM

eyes the holochron.

[9:36 PM]

He's not going to try to take you away from me. He's just going to look at you.

[9:36 PM]

hands it to Coil, or tries to.

CoilToday at 9:38 PM

takes it, slowly.

Esren'nilosToday at 9:41 PM

watches, closely.

CalebToday at 9:54 PM

((Anyone who wants can roll a lore roll))

ZubiToday at 9:55 PM

((14.))

CoilToday at 9:55 PM

((16))

Esren'nilosToday at 9:56 PM

((Not enough, 10))

CalebToday at 9:56 PM

((Roll a wisdom save with advantage as well Zubi))

ZubiToday at 10:00 PM

((27., crit.))

CalebToday at 10:03 PM

Coil  having studied some Jedi related things mainly Lightsabers and histories you did pick up a little about holocrons, from what you know it is rare for them to get damaged and still function but you have never looked at one up close

[10:04 PM]

Zubi you hang it over and you feel the amulet you are wearing warm up a bit and you have a slight headache but not nearly as bad as before

ZubiToday at 10:05 PM

Ow. ... I think the amulet is working, it doesn't hurt thatmuch.

CoilToday at 10:05 PM

turns the holocron over in his hands, staying close to Zubi.

CalebToday at 10:06 PM

Coil  looking at the  holocron  it appears to not be as damaged as you thought  from previous inspections and it looks like unlike the other holocron a you have heard about this one is a bunch of smaller crytals somehow meshed together not just one big crystal

CoilToday at 10:08 PM

((Do any seem to be missing?))

CalebToday at 10:14 PM

((You see that what seemed to be cracks could just be gaps you could add crystals or some kind of material too

CoilToday at 10:14 PM

Hmmm.

[10:14 PM]

hands it back to Zubi.

ZubiToday at 10:15 PM

I don't know where we'd even put a crystal.

CoilToday at 10:15 PM

points out spots.

Esren'nilosToday at 10:16 PM

"Hmmmmmm...let's see if our extra crystals will works."

CoilToday at 10:16 PM

We might want to wait till we're at a vergence.

[10:16 PM]

I don't want to keep blowing up our ship by messing with these things while we're underway.(edited)

ZubiToday at 10:17 PM

Oh, right.

[10:17 PM]

pockets the holochron.

Esren'nilosToday at 10:17 PM

"That does make sense."

ZubiToday at 10:19 PM

How long will it take to get there?

CoilToday at 10:19 PM

checks the console.

CalebToday at 10:20 PM

(( you should be arriving in a couple hours of everything goes normally))

CoilToday at 10:20 PM

A couple of hours.

ZubiToday at 10:21 PM

What should we do for a couple of hours?

Esren'nilosToday at 10:22 PM

"Pazaak?"

CalebToday at 10:24 PM

((If people want I can skip ahead))

ZubiToday at 10:24 PM

... you don't have a very good imagination, do you.

[10:24 PM]

((Sure!))

Esren'nilosToday at 10:24 PM

"What's wrong with Pazaak?"

ZubiToday at 10:26 PM

Well, nothing but there are more fun things people can do alone on a ship.

Esren'nilosToday at 10:27 PM

"..................Dejarik?"

ZubiToday at 10:27 PM

... you smart boys can be really dumb.

[10:28 PM]

goes to play with the goats!

Esren'nilosToday at 10:29 PM

((We can skip ahead if you want, Caleb.  I just wanted to end that scene.  ))

CalebToday at 10:31 PM

Eventually you come out of hyperspace you all see a massive gas giant of a planet up ahead.

Esren'nilosToday at 10:33 PM

"Coil, that look right?"

CoilToday at 10:33 PM

((Is it right?  Is Iktoch a moon?))

CalebToday at 10:37 PM

((It is a moon , you would know it isn’t that hospitable an environment lot of bad dust and gravel storms but it does have breathable air))

CoilToday at 10:37 PM

Seems right to me.  It’s a dusty place.

Esren'nilosToday at 10:38 PM

"Sounds good."

CoilToday at 10:38 PM

We might want to grab rebreathers.   And I should lock down the speeder for the climate.

ZubiToday at 10:39 PM

Oh, all right.

Esren'nilosToday at 10:39 PM

nods

ZubiToday at 10:39 PM

fetches the rebreathers and brings them back.

CalebToday at 10:42 PM

Coil you head towards a smaller rocky looking moon as you all approach you see on the side of the moon it looks like a massive mountain range that has been carved into the symbol of the Old Republic.

Esren'nilosToday at 10:43 PM

"....well...I think we know where to find this Vergence."

CoilToday at 10:43 PM

Possibly.

ZubiToday at 10:44 PM

... wow.

CoilToday at 10:44 PM

It’s still a big mountain range.

[10:45 PM]

... do you think we should tell people we’re Jedi?

ZubiToday at 10:45 PM

Why not?

CoilToday at 10:46 PM

I don’t see why not, I’m just soliciting opinions.

Esren'nilosToday at 10:46 PM

"Not always welcome."

CoilToday at 10:47 PM

No, but neither are strangers asking about Old Republic Jedi ruins.

Esren'nilosToday at 10:47 PM

"True."

ZubiToday at 10:47 PM

Maybe we should just see if they need any help with anything and then ask.

Esren'nilosToday at 10:48 PM

"What if they don't, though?"

ZubiToday at 10:49 PM

People always need help.

CalebToday at 10:51 PM

((Where do you try and land in a city or just out somewhere in the moon))

CoilToday at 10:53 PM

looks for a city.

CalebToday at 10:55 PM

((You find two one appears much larger than the other.))

CoilToday at 10:55 PM

Bigger or smaller?

Esren'nilosToday at 10:57 PM

((I think he means one city is larger than the other city.  So...I think he is asking which you pick to land in.))

CoilToday at 10:57 PM

((Coil was asking which one to land at.))

Esren'nilosToday at 10:57 PM

((Oh!))

[10:57 PM]

"Let's go big.  More people, more a chance they know something."

ZubiToday at 10:58 PM

RIght!
