    Relnex
    Padawans, come here quickly. The training grounds are not safe today.
    Hero of Tython
    I got a basic briefing from Knight Weller, but I'd like a full report before going in. I'm combat trained and ready to help.
    Barsen'thor
    Tell us what's going on, we may be able to assist.
    Relnex
    You're Master Yuon's Padawan, yes? Then you both have got combat training... okay, maybe you can help.
    The Flesh Raiders moved into the training grounds organized and ready, attempting to isolate various groups of Padawans.
    They are a savage people who occasionally raid the local settlements and devour those they kidnap. Before today, we thought they didn't understand technology, but they're packing blasters and vibroblades and turning them on Padawans who aren't trained to defend themselves. There's a group of students in the hills we lost track of. They're not combat trained.
    Hero of Tython
    Don't worry, those Padawans will get home safe. I promise.
    Barsen'thor
    Just let us know what's required. We are here to help.
    Relnex
    I've got a beacon here. If you can find the Padawans and set the beacon, we'll send an evac shuttle fast as we can. A group of Jedi from the temple is headed this way but maybe not fast enough. May the Force be with you.

    Avitla
    How's he looking?
    Mennaus
    He should be resting in the Jedi Temple. But if you're determined to press on... I can help him along.
    Jerridan
    Thank you, my friend.
    Avitla
    Give him the last of the kolto if you have to. We'll fight again soon.
    Hey! Good to see another Padawan alive out here. You're lucky those creatures haven't caught you yet.
    Jedi Duo
    We have been searching for you. What happened out here?
    Jerridan
    Knew it. Knew they'd send rescuers...
    Mennaus
    We came seeking knowledge of the Jedi Code. The Flesh Raiders interrupted our trial.
    Avitla
    We tried to run. Eventually we ran right into one. Turns out we surprised it.
    I've never fought like that in my life. We killed it, but Jerridan was badly injured.
    Jedi Duo
    Your friend - how serious is the wound?
    Mennaus
    It pains him greatly. He should not be moving. It is not the Jedi way to seek battle and revenge while a man suffers.
    Avitla
    That's your opinion, Mennaus. It's not what we decided. Training or not, a bunch of animals won't keep us from becoming Jedi. We're going to fight them until all three of us are finished with our trials.
    Jedi Duo
    Listen to yourself - all this rage... this isn't how Jedi behave. You can finish your trial another time.
    Avitla
    Look what they did to Jerridan. We can't give up now.
    Jerridan
    Isn't she right? Jedi don't give up... do they?
    Mennaus
    She is wrong. Remember the Jedi Code: "There is no passion, there is serenity...."
    Avitla
    That's enough, Mennaus!
    Jedi Duo
    You're walking a dangerous path. You and your friends need to get back to camp while you still can.
    Avitla
    We can't do that. We can't just give up!
    Mennaus
    Avitla, listen, this is our best opportunity to survive this.
    Avitla
    But we're so close to finishing the trial...
    Mennaus
    No. We are not. I see you have a signal beacon. Leave it for us, and as soon as we have gathered our things, we will signal for a ride back.

    Master Relnex
    The beacon worked and a rescue speeder is on its way. You really came through for those Padawans.
    Jedi Duo
    One of them was injured - you need to send a medic with the rescue team.
    Master Relnex
    Standard procedure. They're in good hands.
    Jedi Duo
    And there were Flesh Raiders at every turn - we are sure many of them are still out there.
    Master Relnex
    Don't worry, we've got experienced Jedi on the way.
    You probably want to get back to your trials. Again, thank you and may the Force be with you.

alone. The apprentices agreed to help, and Relnex gave them a beacon they needed to activate so the Jedi could dispatch an evac shuttle as fast as they could. The apprentices acknowledged the order and went in search of the Padawans.
While searching through the Gnarls, the apprentices found a cage with a dead Padawan, captured by the Flesh Raiders. The apprentices searched the area and found several more cages with the Padawans who were still alive and locked inside, and, killing Flesh Raiders who guarded them, freed the Padawans.
The apprentices finally located the trio of Padawans they were sent after - Avitla

. A freshly killed flesh raider lay nearby, Jerridan also lay on the ground, wounded. The three of them were in the middle of a heated discussion, Avitla seeking revenge on the raiders, while Mennaus stressed the Jedi philosophy warning against passion and aggression, but agreed to stay with Jerridan alone if she was determined to press on. Glad to see fellow Padawans, they explained that they were in the Gnarls seeking knowledge of the Jedi Code to complete the trials when the attack began. They tried to run, but eventually ran right into one of the raiders. The raider was surprised and this helped them to kill him, but Jerridan was severely wounded during the fight.
Avitla asked them to join forces, avenge Jerridan and complete the trials, but the duo refused and, after giving them a signal beacon, insisted they use it to alert the Jedi to their location. Avitla reluctantly agreed, and the duo headed back to the outpost.
Back at the outpost, the duo reported their deeds to Master Relnex, who thanked them and assured them that a rescue speeder had been dispatched to the location of the beacon.
