Corso RiggsEverything on Coruscant is huge. You see those city towers as we flew in? How many people you figure live in those? Millions?VoidhoundYou've never been off Ord Mantell in your life, have you?Corso RiggsDon't go making assumptions. I've just never been here.VoidhoundLooks like some of the city towers lost a few levels.Corso RiggsHeard the Sith Empire hit this planet pretty hard. Even knocked the Jedi Temple off its pedestal. Wanna find Skavak before we're too old to shoot straight? We're gonna need local help.VoidhoundGot someone particular in mind?Corso RiggsI happen to know the perfect guy. There's a gambler named Darmas Pollaran who keeps tabs on everything worth knowing about Coruscant. Viidu called him an "information broker." When Darmas isn't playing sabacc, he buys and sells the kind of answers we need. Good man. You'll like him.VoidhoundWhere do we find this Darmas?Corso RiggsViidu always said if you look for a sabacc table surrounded by beautiful women, you'll find Darmas, but I can narrow that down. I still have Viidu's holofrequency contacts, and Darmas is one of them. Give me a second, and we'll talk to the man himself....Darmas PollaranCorso, is that you? It's been too long, you rascal. What brings you to Coruscant?Corso RiggsA friend and I are in a real bind. Is there a place we can meet you?Darmas PollaranOf course. Come to my private cantina booth. I'm here now, winning my tenth hand of sabacc against a very persistent Rodian. Hope you don't mind the occasional blaster fire; the cantina's in a rowdy part of Coruscant.VoidhoundWe just came from a war zone. We're used to blaster fire.Darmas PollaranHad a feeling you were more than a tourists. I look forward to meeting you in person. I expect it will brighten my day considerably.Corso RiggsKeep your comlink channel open, Darmas. I've got some bad news about Viidu. |
Dialog transcript |
Corso RiggsI'll bring Darmas up to speed while we travel, Captain.VoidhoundDon't tell Darmas anything he doesn't need to know. And keep your eyes open for that scum-sucker who stole my ship.Corso RiggsYou got it. |
Dialog transcript |
Corso RiggsThis is the best feeling... A sky full of stars... a new planet waiting across the galaxy.... It never gets old. There's something about cities, all that plasteel and concrete. Weighs too much to ever feel free. When I came back to Ord Mantell, I thought that was the end for me. Thanks for giving me a way off.---from "A Sky Full of Stars" |
Dialog transcript |
Corso RiggsSo, how about that war, huh, Captain? The Empire's making it real tough to pretend it's not happening. You think the Republic'll stop hiding behind the Treaty of Coruscant and admit they want the Empire wiped out? It doesn't sit right negotiating with people who want every man, woman and kid dead.VoidhoundI didn't realize you cared..You trying to tell me you don't think about it? I do. I joined the Peace Brigade when I was fourteen. I know what a world looks like when the Empire's done with it.VoidhoundWhat's that? A bunch of do-gooders?Corso RiggsThe brigade's a relief organization. Go into worlds abandoned by the Treaty of Coruscant, help people displaced by the Empire. I was a kid looking for an adventure. After two months... let's just say there are no kids in war zones.---from "The Peace Brigade" |
Dialog transcript |
Darmas PollaranWelcome, my friend. I'm Darmas Pollaran, sabacc player and information resource without equal.VoidhoundNice to meet you. I'm the fastest blaster in the galaxy.Darmas PollaranI guess congratulations are in order. I wasn't aware that competition had been settled. Good for you.Sorry to hear about Viidu. He was a man of refined tastes and a terrible card player. I'll truly miss him. Life is like sabacc. The trick is to quit while you're ahead and enjoy your winnings - exactly how I'll spend my twilight years.VoidhoundI'll drink to that.Darmas PollaranWho needs luck? With the right preparation and a flexible strategy, a man can be ready for anything life throws at him - even death. Now, I know this isn't a social call. Corso says you have troubles, and I'm prepared to help.VoidhoundA man named Skavak stole my freighter and brought it here.Darmas PollaranHaving met Skavak, I understand completely. Corso mentioned a cargo hold full of stolen blasters and the infamous Rogun the Butcher, too. My sympathies.VoidhoundRogun the Butcher put a bounty on my head. I want it removed.Darmas PollaranNot much I can do about that, except find the man who got you into trouble. Skavak is well known in the galactic underworld. He's earned death sentences across the galaxy for everything from armed robbery to kidnapping. He's known to be in the Sith Empire's pocket, and he even cheats at cards. I'm happy to help you find him.VoidhoundIf there's one thing I hate, it's a card cheat.Darmas PollaranOh, my... beauty, intelligence and fine moral values - what's not to like about that combination? In my book, if you can only win by cheating you shouldn't be playing the game at all.Soon as Corso mentioned Skavak's name, I alerted all my best informants. I'm getting some interesting leads.Corso RiggsWhat did I tell you, Captain? Darmas can find out anything. We'll have Skavak in no time.VoidhoundHow much do you want for your information, Darmas?Darmas PollaranNothing, my friend. I couldn't live with myself, taking advantage of a man who lost his starship. Skavak recently used the services of a data slicer named Kixi in the Migrant Merchants' Guild headquarters. Quite talented, I hear.VoidhoundWhat would Skavak need with a data slicer? More of Skavak's girlfriends. I'll say this: The man has a way with women.Darmas PollaranSlicers are masters at cracking codes and manipulating data. Miscreant like Skavak'll have all sorts of nefarious uses for such talent. And I don't think it's a romantic relationship. Skavak doesn't cavort with aliens - even near-humans like Kixi.VoidhoundWhat do you know about this guild?Darmas PollaranIt's made up of aliens who lost their homes in the war. The guild's original goal was self-preservation, but lately they've become... greedy. Kixi might be able to help you flush Skavak out of hiding. Be careful, though - the guild is well armed and doesn't like outsiders. Excuse me, but I notice some delightful young ladies in desperate need of attention. Duty calls. |

Priority Transport OfficerMasters Jedi, Lieutenant, Captain.Such a pleasure. Welcome, welcome. Greetings. You are headed to the capital maybe? Yes? There is a direct shuttle to Coruscant. It is small but comfortable.I was contacted by a group of important people - Jedi Masters Shan and Syo, and General Garza. And Captain, you have two tickets purchased by one named Syreena?Your tickets also give you transport on the Esseles. Very comfortable, very fast. VIP Republic transport. Yes?OperativesGlad to hear it.Priority Transport OfficerExcellent, excellent. Be warned, transport sometimes goes through dangerous space. When you are ready, go through airlock. It will lead you straight to the Esseles. |
Dialog transcript |
Vyn AsaraExcuse me? Yes, could I speak with you for a moment? You're a soldier - Republic Army, right? You're a Jedi, aren't you?. And Captain, some passengers from Ord Mantell mentioned your reputation as a first-rate pilot.I'm sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if you've been contacted by any of the ship's officers.MeteorI have not been contacted by any of the ship's personnel. Is there a situation?Vyn AsaraCaptain? VoidhoundI don't normally do civilian transport, but I could definitely get this hunk of metal to Coruscant faster.Vyn AsaraNo, no. I'm sorry, that isn't quite what I meant. Masters?Hero of TythonI haven't spoken to any members of the crew. But anyone who needs the help of a Jedi will have it.Barsen'thorNo member of the ship's crew has sought me out. Should they have?Vyn AsaraI overheard some passengers talking. You've got quite a reputation. Has the ship's crew spoken to you at all?Barsen'thorI sense great concern. Why don't you tell us what's wrong?Vyn AsaraI heard a rumor that there's an Imperial warship following us. I know, I know- the Treaty of Coruscant. But I don't trust the Empire to keep the peace.It's hard not to be a little afraid - knowing what the Empire was capable of back in the war.VoidhoundHey, there's nothing wrong with looking over your shoulder every once in a while.MeteorThe Imps will always be a threat - no treaty is going to change that.Vyn AsaraIt's good to hear I'm not the only one concerned about the Imperials. I just thought that the ship's crew is more likely to talk to someone like you if there's trouble.MeteorTelling the passengers that Imperials are nearby would only cause a panic.Vyn AsaraI suppose. Still, I think it's unsettling to think that there might be Imperials behind us.IntercomWarning! Warning! Incoming fire! All hands, brace for incoming! Repeat, all hands- |
Dialog transcript |
Vyn AsaraCan you hear me? Are you alright? Good, good. That was quite a hit, we're lucky not to be hurt.MeteorThe Imperials seem to have forgotten about the treaty....Vyn AsaraI knew the treaty would break eventually, but I didn't think I'd actually be here to see it.Listen- you have to get to the bridge. The captain will need all of the help he can get right now- go, hurry!MeteorLet's just hope it's not too late to help. We should head for the bridge and see if there's any way we can lend a hand.Vyn AsaraIt's never too late to try. With your skills, I'm sure you could make a difference. Good luck. |
Dialog transcript |
First Officer HakenCome on, Tyrus! You can make it, sir, you can make it!Navigator PlexHe's gone, sir. You're in charge now - what are our orders?First Officer HakenYour orders? Our weapons are out, shields are out, comms are out! There's nothing we can do!Barsen'thorThe path may not always be clear, but that doesn't mean there is no path.First Officer HakenWhy is this Jedi standing on our bridge spouting nonsense? We're in a situation here! If you want to be useful, Jedi, then get out of here and stop interrupting us!VoidhoundIt sounds like you guys could use a captain with some experience.First Officer HakenWho is this? Who do you think you are? Get out!MeteorGive us a sitrep, people - what have we got?First Officer HakenIs your hearing bad, soldier? Because I'm pretty sure I just went over that. We're in the middle of a situation here, the bridge is off-limits.Navigator PlexSir, we need all the help we can get. If we don't keep it together here, we're finished.First Officer HakenKeep what together? The Imperials have us by the throat! We're as good as dead already.MeteorWhat's wrong with you? Are you really going to let your ship fall to the Imperials so easily?First Officer HakenThat ship behind us is one of the biggest in the Imperial fleet. We didn't stand a chance. I just can't believe this is happening.VoidhoundAre the engines still working? Is there any chance we could run?Navigator PlexThe engines are operational, but we're caught in a tractor beam. Impossible to run for it.Communication Officer RasteSir! Incoming message - the Imperial ship is hailing us!First Officer HakenWhat? Oh. Well, put them on.Grand Moff KilranRepublic transport Esseles, this is Grand Moff Rycus Kilran. Your defenses are entirely disabled. Attempt no resistance.VoidhoundWe're aware of our situation, Kilran. Just tell us why you're here.Grand Moff KilranCome, now. I think it's obvious I'm not here for friendly diplomacy. Your ship is transporting a known anti-Imperial terrorist and seditionist: the so-called "Ambassador" Vyn Asara. I've come to collect her.First Officer HakenWho? We didn't take on any passengers by that name. I've never even heard of this person!Grand Moff KilranInteresting. Lying or incompetent? No matter. My agents aboard your ship have confirmed the ambassador is there.MeteorWhat are you going to do about it, Kilran? You can't force us to hand this person over.Grand Moff KilranI'm fairly confident that I can. Imperial soldiers are preparing to board your ship through its primary air lock. My agents will ensure that you do not interfere with them.If you attempt to stop my men from arresting Ambassador Asara, I will have every living thing aboard the Esseles killed.Hero of TythonWhere is the primary air lock? We'll stop the Imperials as they try to board.Navigator PlexWeren't you listening? If we try to fight, they'll slaughter us! We have to cooperate!Let's not panic. We just figure out who this ambassador is and hand her over. No problem.First Officer HakenIt won't matter. Kilran has us, now. He'll kill us all - he's famous for it. The only one he wants alive is the ambassador.If Kilran gets the ambassador while we're sitting in his sights, we're goners. Those soldiers have to be stopped before they can succeed.Barsen'thorWe'll show these Imperials the error of their ways.First Officer HakenIt's very brave of you to volunteer. Listen- I'm sorry I lost it earlier. It means a lot to have your help right now. Thank you. I'm sure you're up to anything the Imps can throw at us.I'll have our security team meet you by the primary air lock. They haven't seen much action, but Commander Narlock knows his stuff. Good luck. We're all counting on you. |
Dialog transcript |
Commander NarlockThis is it, men. This is what you've been training for. The Imperials are coming, and we're not going to let them past, are we?Security Team Member 1Sir, no, sir!Commander NarlockWe won't be fighting alone! We have some very experienced volunteers - the Imps will never know what hit them!Hero of TythonMy lightsaber is at your service, Commander.Commander NarlockDo you hear that, men? Our friend here is going to chop through these Imps like nothing!Barsen'thorThe Force will guide us to victory.Commander NarlockThe Force will be with us, men! We'll be unstoppable!VoidhoundHope you're ready to see a real professional at work.Commander NarlockA professional! We've got nothing to worry about, men - we can't lose!MeteorHavoc Squad, reporting for duty!Commander NarlockHavoc Squad! The best in the Republic, and they're fighting by your side, men. We can't fail! We won't!The Imps will cut through any second now - we need to take up defensive positions. Move up, men! Get ready! |
Dialog transcript |
Commander NarlockHah! Victory! We've done it, men, we've done it! The ship is saved!Vyn AsaraI'm sorry, Commander, but that... that isn't the case.MeteorWe defeated the entire boarding party - nobody could've slipped past us.Vyn AsaraNo, you're right - it's not you the Imperials slipped past.VoidhoundYou're Ambassador Asara? That Imperial said that you're the one they were sent to capture.Vyn AsaraListen, that's not important right now - we have a serious problem. First Officer Haken walked us right into a trap. The attack on this air lock was a ruse.After Haken sent you here, Imperial commandos snuck aboard, they were led by a Mandalorian mercenary called "Ironfist." The Mandalorians work for the Empire - they're some of the best warriors in the galaxy. And Ironfist is one of the most famous. It gets worse, I'm afraid. Ironfist and his Imperial commandos stormed the bridge, and now the entire area is locked down tight. That's why I rushed to find you. We have to do something - we have to act fast.VoidhoudHow did you learn about all of this?Vyn AsaraI watched the whole thing happen on the security cams.Commander NarlockLook, what is this all about? Why are the Imperials so desperate to capture you?Vyn AsaraBecause of my work. I'm a Republic ambassador. I travel to Imperial-controlled planets and convince their governments to come over to our side.Barsen'thorTurning potential enemies into friends spares us unnecessary conflicts.Vyn AsaraNot all battles can be avoided, but diplomacy can gain us so much more than fighting.VoidhoundTalk about running dangerous cargo. Who gets you in and out of these places?Vyn AsaraI slip in on passenger ships like this one and blend in. But we can talk about my work later.Commander NarlockWe need to retake the bridge. The longer we leave the Imperials in control, the harder it will be to remove them.Vyn AsaraI already told you, Ironfist has the bridge locked down. There's no way in or out.Commander NarlockA security lockdown... that is bad. Chief Engineer Salen might know of a workaround.MeteorHopefully we can get to Salen before the Imperials. Do you know where he is?Dol NarlockHe and his team will be down in the engineering section. I'm sure they'll be able to help us.Vyn AsaraWe'll need a diversion. If the Imperials notice the hatches to engineering opening, they'll flood the area with soldiers.Dol NarlockMy men and I can handle that. Form up, men! We're going to go start some trouble!MeteorLet's get that bridge open!Dol NarlockWe'll give those Imps something to think about, won't we, boys?Vyn AsaraIt's a lot to ask of you, I know. But we have to get the bridge open. I'll go along with Commander Narlock. Once you've cleared a path to engineering, I'll double-back and join up with you there. Good luck. |
Dialog transcript |
VeppHey! Hey, Chief, come here! Look, there's someone out there, on the other side of the door!SalenYou must be crazy, coming all the way down here with the Imps everywhere.MeteorCommander Narlock said that you might know of a way to unlock the bridge. The Imperials have it sealed off.SalenThe Imps pulled the lockdown? You've got to be kidding me.Vyn AsaraYou really cleared this place out. I didn't run into a single Imperial on my way down here. Listen- there's no time to waste. Commander Narlock and his men are being overrun - we have to get the bridge unlocked now.SalenSo I've heard. I'd invite you in, but the lockdown has our doors sealed, too.Hero of TythonAre you going to be safe in there? Do you need help getting out?SalenGetting the bridge back in our control is much more important. Now let's see...VeppWhat about a reactor reset? That would disengage the security locks, wouldn't it, sir?SalenYeah, but a reactor reset vents the engineering compartment - we'd be blown into space. Besides, controls are on the other side of the door.VoidhoundWhat else could we do to open up the bridge?SalenThe secondary conduits. They're spread around a bit, but if you shut them all down, the security will go down, too. Then we'll be in business.MeteorWe'll get the conduits shut down right away.Vyn AsaraThere's no time to go running all over the ship. If we don't act now, the Imperials will overwhelm us. I'm sorry, Salen. We need to unlock the bridge while we have the chance. We have to reset the reactor. You and your men will be remembered.Barsen'thorWe can't send these people to their deaths! Not when there's an alternative!Vyn AsaraFine. But you're dooming everyone on this ship. Sometimes, sacrifices have to be made for the greater good.Hero of TythonWe're trying to save the people on this ship, not kill them.Vyn AsaraFine. Who am I to argue?SalenCrazy witch! Shutting down the secondary conduits will work, I promise.Vyn AsaraIf you're going to do it, go now. The longer you wait, the more Imperials you'll have after you. |
Dialog transcript |
Vyn AsaraI don't know how you managed it, but you did. The security doors around the bridge have opened.MeteorThe bridge is open, and no innocent lives had to be sacrificed to do it.Vyn AsaraYou were right- I'm sorry. Please understand, I didn't want to kill anyone, I just... it seemed like the only way to be sure.I'll go and help Narlock with another diversion. So you have as little resistance as possible when you attack the bridge.You'll still have to deal with Ironfist, though. And that's no small challenge.VoidhoundWhat do you know about Ironfist?Vyn AsaraI only know Ironfist by reputation, but he's been doing Grand Moff Kilran's dirty work for a long time now.He's never been captured, defeated or even driven back. You have your work cut out for you.MeteorThey didn't just train me to do the easy jobs, ma'am.VoidhoundSo if Ironfist goes down, I become famous. Works for me.Vyn AsaraI'm not sure if fame should be the first thing on your mind at a time like this.Just be careful. Mandalorians always have a few tricks up their sleeves.All right, no more time to waste. Narlock, are you there? Can you hear me?Dol NarlockCopy, this is Narlock! Set for second offensive?Vyn AsaraThat's right, Commander. I'm on my way to join you now. |
Dialog transcript |
IronfistWell, well. I was wondering when you'd finally show up. This is it? There aren't more of you?Hero of TythonJust give up, Ironfist. We don't want to have to hurt you or your men.IronfistStrange view of the situation. Guess you'd have to be a little crazy to put up the fight you have. Just give me a decent fight for once, will you?Let's vape this worthless scum and get back to work. |
Dialog transcript |
Vyn AsaraFirst Officer Haken, do you have any spare shuttles in the hangar bay?HakenSpare shuttles? Yes, we do, but I don't-Vyn AsaraThen that's our only chance. You have to board Grand Moff Kilran's ship and disable the tractor beam so that we can all escape.MeteorWhy not? We've been fighting insane odds all along. No sense stopping now.VoidhoundI'm in. A bit of fancy flying followed by some daring heroics? You've come to the right person.Vyn AsaraI knew we could count on you.I've been aboard warships like Kilran's. The tractor beam controls should be easy to find, if you know where you're going.HakenAmbassador, you're familiar with the layout, perhaps you should go along to help get the tractor beam shut down.Vyn AsaraHmm. We need every advantage we can get.MeteorSounds like a plan. It will be good to have you along, Ambassador.Vyn AsaraI'll do my best to help in any way I can.Dol NarlockAmbassador, before you go - take a spare uniform. We wouldn't want any Imperials to recognize you.Vyn AsaraGood thinking, Commander - thank you. Now let's get moving.HakenGood luck out there. We're all counting on you. |
Dialog transcript |
HakenHey! Hold up a minute. I need to talk to you before you go.I just talked to Salen from engineering. He told me what Asara tried to make you do down there. Thank you for stopping her.MeteorShe was just doing what she thought she had to do to save the ship.HakenAnd she would've killed a lot of good people if you hadn't stopped her. Thank you.Listen, I've been thinking. I really believe this plan is going to work. But there's only one way to guarantee that we all make it home safe. And that's to make sure the Imperials have no reason to keep chasing us.MeteorWhat are you suggesting, Haken?VoidhoundYou want us to hand the ambassador over to the Imperials, don't you?HakenYes. For the sake of us all, I want you to leave Asara behind on the Grand Moff's ship. With the tractor beam down, we'll be able to escape. But Kilran will just chase us down again - unless he's already captured his target.Asara is the reason for all of this. If you're serious about doing whatever it takes to save this ship, then you'll make sure she doesn't come back with you.Hero of TythonWe didn't sacrifice the engineers to get us out of this. We won't sacrifice Asara, either. Don't let your anger at the ambassador cloud your judgment.HakenMy judgement isn't clouded. This is what has to be done, I'm sure of it.MeteorAmbassador Asara is a Republic official. It's our duty to protect her.HakenIt's going to be dangerous over there. If Asara didn't make it, nobody would even think twice about it.VoidhoundIs this really what's best for the ship? Or are you just looking for a bit of payback?HakenMaybe. Doesn't change the fact that leaving her behind will save the rest of us. Just think about it. I'd even make it worth your while if things go the way I'm suggesting. |
Dialog transcript |
HakenEveryone's aboard, Plex! Get us out of here, now! We're safe! You did it - you did what no one else could have done. You've saved us all. We owe you our lives... every one of us. So, on behalf of the passengers and crew of the Republic transport Esseles, thank you.MeteorYou're welcome. It's been an honor to help and protect you all.HakenIf you hadn't been here, we'd all have been doomed. We can't thank you enough. I took up a collection from everyone on the ship - hopefully, these credits will help you save other people in need, the same way you've saved us.Hero of TythonPlease - keep your credits. I'm sure you all need them more than we.HakenThat's extremely gracious of you. Thank you very much.Ambassador Asara, it's... it's a relief to see that you made it back to us safely as well.Vyn AsaraReally? I imagine it comes as a bit of a surprise to see me here at all, Haken.HakenI- I don't know what you mean. Of course I'm glad to see you. Why would you think differently?VoidhoundYou offered us a reward to leave her on the Grand Moff's ship, Haken.HakenYou must have misunderstood me. I would never... I wouldn't do something like that.Vyn AsaraThank you for telling me the truth and for everything else you've done here. The Republic needs heroes like you now more than ever.I should warn you, though. Grand Moff Kilran is never going to forget what we've done. He'll stop at nothing to get his revenge.Barsen'thorThanks for the warning. Sounds like we'd better keep our guard up from now on.Vyn AsaraThat would be wise. There's nothing Kilran isn't capable of.Anyway, enough of that. I'd say it's about time we all relaxed a bit and enjoyed the rest of our trip. Thanks again - and good luck in the future. |

Mendi DianHuh, this is a surprise. Name's Mendi Dian. I'm with the Strategic Information Service. Gotta say, I never expected someone like you to get involved in something like this. Didn't think anyone else was looking into what's going on here. What's your interest in my case, if you don't mind me asking?MeteorYour case? You mean you're investigating the droid?Hero of TythonI sensed something unusual about all this. I appreciate you confirming it.Mendi DianYou're welcome, I guess? But if you think that little chat you had was unusual, just you wait.... You've spent five minutes with that little astromech. Believe me, you haven't seen anything yet.I haven't taken my eyes off that entire Fleet sector since that droid showed up. Who comes, who goes, who the thing actually has a conversation with... I don't miss any of it. So when that bucket of bolts starts handing out orders - and someone takes them - I feel the need to intervene.VoidhoundYou don't seem very enthusiastic about all this, considering how much effort you're putting in.MeteorWhy are you letting it continue to be such a nuisance? Get rid of it. This is a complete waste of SIS resources, if you ask me. This is a complete waste of SIS resources, if you ask me.Mendi DianI'm not disagreeing with you there. On the surface, this doesn't seem like anything to get worked up about. But someone's behind this, and I'm trying to get to the bottom of it. No matter how strange it is.I'm struggling to do even the bare minimum, surveillance-wise, on this droid. You keep doing what you're doing. Play along. Run any little errands the droid gives you. That'll give me time to catch up, start really digging into who's letting this misery-spouting astromech run wild on our fleet.MeteorWe'd be happy to assist you.Mendi DianLook, if you'd just- oh. Sorry. I usually have to do a lot more convincing before people get me the resources I need.I just thought you might like to know there's someone backing you up. When I've got something we can go on, I'll let you know.And look, I'm not the biggest fan of asking for help, and I'm not good at either. You're already doing something the droid asked. You're involved now. Whether you like it or not. |

Rycus KilranWell. I've seen some incredible things in my time, but you've just topped the list. I'm sorry I couldn't greet you in person - if only you had let me know you were stopping by.VoidhoundIf this is a bad time, we could come back later.Rycus KilranOh, no. Not at all. I assure you, I'm quite prepared for your visit. My men will be along shortly to escort you to the accommodations I've arranged.Hero of TythonYour men can't stop us, Kilran.Rycus KilranYou greatly overestimate your chances. Ironfist wasn't the only weapon in my arsenal - nor the deadliest.See you soon. |

VokkA soldier? What a waste. No soldier can match the power of a Sith. Kilran promised me a challenge, and this is what I get?Ah! A Jedi! Much better. How I've looked forward to this. A true Sith cannot go long without a true challenge.VoidhoundIf it's my friends you want, I'll just go on about my business.Hero of TythonWe won't fight you if you don't make us.VokkPitiful words, don't waste your final breaths with them.VoidhoundWe're more than enough trouble for you, pal.VokkYou are nothing. None of you will leave here alive. Death will never come for me. I am death. When I carve your heart from your chest, your fellow Jedi will sense your defeat. As will my master.MeteorAnd will your master feel it when I put a blaster shot right between your eyes?Barsen'thorYou don't have to continue down the dark path. You can still embrace peace.VokkPeace is a lie. There is only passion. And through passion, I gain strength. Pitiful scum like you cannot grasp the full nature of the Sith. The power of the dark side is infinite... are you ready to face oblivion?VoidhoundAre you ready to fight, or are you going to spout gibberish all day?VokkYou're right - words are nothing without action! I am Sith! Die! |

Vyn AsaraCome on! Get onto the shuttles, we have to hurry! If we launch fast enough, I think we can make it. Are you ready?MeteorWe need to talk, Asara. First Officer Haken doesn't want you to come back from this one, Ambassador. He thinks you'll just cause more trouble.Vyn AsaraIs this a joke? That spineless, indecisive... he wants you to hand me over to the Imperials? Unbelievable. After everything I've done to save this ship. Everything I've done for the Republic. That scum tries to betray me to the Empire.Wait. You didn't actually agree to leave me behind, did you?Barsen'thorWe wouldn't leave you behind to die, Asara.Vyn AsaraGood. I was about to... well, it doesn't matter. Come on, we've wasted too much time here already. Let's go! |

Anitol RossparI was hoping to meet just one of you. This must be what the saying "an embarrassment of riches" means. Considering your recent accomplishments, I shouldn't be surprised to find you traveling together. Greatness attracts greatness.Hero of TythonI can't speak for my friends, but I'm just another Jedi here on business.Anitol RossparDon't be so humble. You stopped an attack on Tython's Jedi Temple - as a Padawan. People in high places are talking.Barsen'thorWhat is your interest in us? Clearly, our reputations precede us. My questions are, how... and why do you care?Anitol RossparStopping a threat like Nalen Raloch attracts attention. Your names are known in the right circles.MeteorMy missions are classified. I don't know what you're talking about. Even if I did, I couldn't discuss it with a civilian.Anitol RossparNot trying to violate your security clearance, Lieutenant. I'll just thank you for exposing the traitors on Ord Mantell.VoidhoundWow, I'm already famous. Didn't realize my exploits were public knowledge. You looking for an autograph?Anitol RossparNot exactly, but I am a fan. You stormed a separatist base on Ord Mantell and came back without a scratch. Impressive.MeteorAnd unwelcome attention. Greatness also attracts annoying people who want things.Anitol RossparSad, but true. Rest assured, I'm not here to waste your time.I represent Vanara Kayl, Senator of Coruscant. She not only speaks for our capital world in the Galactic Senate, but oversees this planet's government.Senator Kayl leads the effort to rebuild what was destroyed during the Sith Empire's invasion. Healing those old wounds has been slow and painful.Hero of TythonThe war's been over a long time. It's hard to believe we're still recovering.Anitol RossparSome wounds run deeper than others.VoidhoundAre you requesting donations? You're here collecting credits for the reconstruction, is that it?Anitol RossparA person of your skills can provide more substantial aid.This world faces many crises: a shattered infrastructure, a booming refugee population... whole sectors descending into anarchy. All of these hinder the rebuilding.Senator Kayl believes you're specially qualified to deal with a dangerous and urgent threat. She'd appreciate the favor of a meeting - immediately.Hero of TythonThe Senator needs to clear this with Master Orgus Din. If he agrees, I'll meet her.Anitol RossparThere's no time for standard diplomatic channels. Senator Kayl will explain everything.Barsen'thorA great Jedi has fallen ill. She is my priority.Anitol RossparKeep an open mind. What's good for Senator Kayl is good for Master Yuon as well.MeteorI'm here on urgent business. I don't have time for political games.Anitol RossparThis is no game, Lieutenant - but I'm not authorized to reveal more. You understand.VoidhoundSenator, huh? My time isn't cheap.Anitol RossparArrangements will be made to ensure you feel properly compensated.Senator Kayl is the greatest leader we've had in decades. She'll not only rebuild this world, but the rest of the Republic with it.Speak to Minister Imogh at the Senate tower. Tell him you're expected. Good luck - and welcome to Coruscant. |
Dialog transcript |
ImoghAh, at last! One moment, please... Senator? Your special appointment has arrived.Vanara KaylThank you for coming on short notice. I'm Senator Vanara Kayl. Forgive my abruptness, but time is a luxury I don't possess. As you may have heard, Coruscant is overwhelmed with refugees fleeing Imperial tyranny. Many have been here since the war.The refugees took over the old Galactic Market sector, huddling in shops and warehouses that were abandoned during the Sacking of Coruscant. They refuse to leave.Hero of TythonIs the Republic doing anything to provide for these refugees?Vanara KaylResources are scarce. There's only so much we can do. We've offered to resettle them offworld, but they're demanding to remain here.As so often happens when fear and poverty dominate, a criminal element has risen to take advantage of the situation. The Migrant Merchants' Guild began as a political advocacy group for refugees. Over the years, it transformed into a ruthless and murderous criminal syndicate.Barsen'thorAs if these people didn't have enough problems, now they're being controlled by gangsters.Vanara KaylThese criminals exploit the very people their guild allegedly protects. They rule through intimidation and extortion.MeteorDo the gangsters have a power structure? A leader?Vanara KaylIt's a consortium of powerful crime lords. When one falls, another takes his place. It makes them difficult to defeat.The Migrant Merchants' Guild has grown increasingly hostile and violent. Their criminal enforcers have acquired military-grade weaponry.Earlier today, their thugs took to the streets. They attacked our security personnel, set fires, began rioting. We're facing an armed insurrection.MeteorSounds like Ord Mantell. You just described the last enemy I fought.Vanara KaylI need your expertise, Lieutenant. We can't rule out the possibility of Imperial influence.VoidhoundHave these gangsters made any demands?Vanara KaylThey only seem intent on destruction.For generations, the old Galactic Market was Coruscant's central trade hub. Its importance isn't merely economic - it's a symbol of the Republic's freedom. The comm channels are jammed. We've lost contact with our security forces. I need your help ending this crisis. The criminals must not win.VoidhoundYour forces are probably dead. If the situation's as bad as you say, your people didn't survive.Vanara KaylThere's still hope. If my security forces were dead, those gangsters couldn't resist letting me know.Do whatever you must to save innocent lives from that criminal filth. Find my security chief, Captain Winborn. He'll help. Good luck. |
Dialog transcript |
WinbornCut power to the whole blasted planet if you have to! We can't let those crazies take over the network!MeteorCaptain Winborn? Senator Kayl said you need backup. What's the situation? Captain Winborn? Senator Kayl said you need backup. What's the situation?WinbornWe're getting cut to pieces down here. We're not trained to fight an army of killers. These gangsters are smart - organized. Clearly trained offworld. They'll kill thousands. Might even destroy the Senate tower.MeteorPull your men back, Captain. Let us handle the criminals.WinbornIt's not that simple. They came here with a plan.Hero of TythonThe Senate tower is nowhere near this sector.WinbornThe scum found themselves a way around that little detail.The gangsters brought slicers to access every network node in the sector. They're trying to take over the automated speeder flight paths. They'll cause thousands of mid-air collisions. It'll rain debris on the Senate tower like a meteor storm. No telling how many will die.Barsen'thorGangsters need a motive. They're criminals, not terrorists. They wouldn't do this unless they stood to gain something.WinbornLet's ask them - after we crush their army.Hero of TythonSend a man to warn the Senators. They need to find shelter.WinbornI sent word right before you got here, but there isn't enough time to save everyone. We have to stop this here.The gangsters have armed patrols guarding the network access points. We need to push them back and manually lock down the terminals.Get enough terminals, and we might just pull this off. My men will back you up. Good luck in there. |
Dialog transcript |
WinbornMy men can't believe you took on all those gangsters--and lived. You're a blasted hero, you know that?With the network terminals locked down, the speeder traffic is secure. Now all that's left is pushing out those gangsters for good.MeteorThere was some kind of encrypted message on the network. Looks like a recording.WinbornLet me see that... hmm... it's an old Migrant Merchants' Guild code. Think I can decrypt it.... Here we go.Prakath (RECORDING)You accepted our friendship, Senator Kayl--and credits. It's time you paid us back. All we want are the housing projects you promised our people. Now.Vanara Kayl (RECORDING)Your people will have to wait their turn like everyone else. I owe you nothing. If you continue pushing me, I'll destroy you all.VoidhoundSenator Kayl and the Migrant Merchants' Guild are at war? That's what this was all about?Barsen'thorI can't believe Senator Kayl would deal with gangsters. Could that message be forged?WinbornThe call was placed directly to her office.VoidhoundShould've known Senator Kayl was too good to be true. She's an even bigger crook than I thought.WinbornDoesn't make sense. There's gotta be an explanation.Vanara Kayl (RECORDING)Your extortion attempt has failed. My people are pushing back your little army as we speak. It's over.Prakath (RECORDING)Nobody breaks a deal with us, Senator. We'll have what we want, one way or another.WinbornThis is way above my pay grade. I'm not destroying the reputation of Coruscant's most popular politician. Take the recording. I don't want it.Hero of TythonWhen you wear that uniform, you're upholding the Republic's ideals: freedom, integrity and honesty.WinbornThere's nobody more qualified to handle this than you, Jedi. I know you'll find the truth.VoidhoundA security captain who gives away evidence to complete strangers? How did you get this job?WinbornI follow my conscience. Whatever's happening, there's a reasonable explanation.Senator Kayl has done great things for Coruscant. She's a good woman. Give her a chance. My men and I will stay down here. You should go back to the Senate tower. |
Dialog transcript |
ImoghHow lovely to see you again. Any friend of Senator Kayl's is a friend of mine.Vanara KaylThat will be all, Minister. Dismissed.Captain Winborn contacted me. You thwarted an attack that would've killed thousands. You have my gratitude. Unfortunately, you also have a holorecording I would like destroyed. Its contents will only cause harm.MeteorYou've been lying to everyone, Senator. The only reason those gangsters attacked us was to get at you.Vanara KaylI understand your anger, Lieutenant. But you need to understand - things here are complicated.Many choices only appear foolish in retrospect. At the time, it felt like the right thing to do.My opponent in the elections was a vile man: lazy, stupid and corrupt. He wasn't interested in building, only taking. I had to win. But I didn't possess as much wealth as he did. When those gangsters approached me, I accepted their "donation"- and I'd do it again.MeteorDo you hear yourself? After everything that's happened, you still won't admit to being wrong.I'm not wrong. If you'd witnessed the suffering on this world - the poverty and despair - you'd know that.Don't be naive. Wealth can purchase influence - and influence sways popular opinion. My opponent understood that too well. I stole from those criminals to rebuild Coruscant for its people. Set things right. I'll bring the Migrant Merchants' Guild to justice.You hold the power to ensure my success. Let me finish healing this world. Please destroy that recording.Barsen'thorIf you really love the people of Coruscant, you'll admit what you've done. Let them decide whether or not to forgive you.Vanara KaylYou think I'm dishonest? I'm just a realist - but there's no point arguing it with you. I won't force you to go public. I'll call an emergency meeting in the Senate. Tell them the truth. Let them decide.MeteorCoruscant will be rebuilt, with or without you. We promise to help finish what you've started.Vanara KaylPerhaps you should run for office. I'll see to it you're properly recognized for your heroism in the old Galactic Market.Farewell. |

Satele ShanThis is Republic Emergency Response Corps secure holofrequency "polaris." A crisis on the Outer Rim requires immediate intervention. The Advozse Hegemony have obtained a Republic battle station and are using it for acts of aggressive expansion, conquering entire star systems. I am Satele Shan, Grand Master of the Jedi Council. I coordinate with the Republic Emergency Response Corps during military crises.VoidhoundHow did Advozsec "obtain" our battle station? Did someone leave it unlocked with the keys inside?MeteorI've never heard of this group. What are they after?Satele ShanThey're a xenophobic political faction seeking to expand. Until now, they've been a containable threat.MeteorDoes this emergency take precedence over my and Barsen'thor's main assignments, Master?Satele ShanThe Hegemony must be stopped immediately. Millions of innocent lives are at stake.VoidhoundNo offense, but this sounds like Jedi work to me.Satele ShanDefending the helpless from tyranny is the work of all Republic citizens.During the last war, Republic scientists developed a mobile battle station code-named "Hammer." It bombarded planetary surfaces using asteroids as weapons. Hammer Station was indiscriminately destructive. The project was canceled and its prototype ordered destroyed. We don't know how the Advosze Hegemony now possess it.MeteorWe'll solve that mystery later. The point is, that station could level whole cities.Satele ShanThe planet Skine resisted the Hegemony's demands to surrender. Hammer Station reduced its capital city to ashes two hours ago.VoidhoundMaybe our friends figured out how to construct their own Hammer Station?Satele ShanThey lack the resources to build anything of that magnitude.MeteorWhy do I get the feeling we're about to add "battle station demolitionist" to our resumes?Satele ShanA direct fleet assault would be suicide. Shields are useless against asteroid strikes. The station can target and destroy large vessels easily. But an assault shuttle could evade the asteroids and deliver a commando team to destroy Hammer Station from the inside. We just need volunteers.Hero of TythonThis is what I trained for. We'll bring down that station, whatever it takes.Satele ShanBe careful. The Jedi Order cannot afford to lose you.Barsen'thorViolence is not my way, Master, but destroying that station appears to be our best hope for peace.Satele ShanThe Force is strong in you. Let it guide you to victory.MeteorYou came to the right soldier. I specialize in storming enemy fortresses.Satele ShanAll I ask is that you come back in one piece.VoidhoundI'll do it on one condition: If I die, you build a statue in my honor. Something really impressive - and expensive.Satele ShanAgreed - but I hope we never have need to fulfill that bargain.VoidhoundAnd what happens to that commando team when the station blows up - posthumous medals?Satele ShanOverloading Hammer Station's primary weapon will take time. The boarding party can flee before its detonation.Destroying the station is your main objective, but we need to know how the Hegemony obtained it. Any data you recover could prove useful. Hammer Station has just entered orbit above Saleucami and demanded its surrender. Your assault shuttle is standing by. May the Force be with you. |
Dialog transcript |
Hero of TythonHammer Station is destroyed, Master Satele.Satele ShanThe people of Saleucami and the other conquered worlds send their gratitude. The enemy has retreated to their home system. The Hegemony is no longer a threat. This is a time to heal our losses.Barsen'thorThose conquered worlds will need help rebuilding.Satele ShanRelief ships are already en route with food and medicine.Thanks to you, we know how Hammer Station survived destruction. Years ago, its autopilot was set to fly the station into a nearby star. According to the data you recovered, a mechanical failure cut the station's engines just short of its final destination. Advozsec salvagers discovered it several months ago.MeteorThe salvagers towed Hammer Station back to Hegemony space and gave its government the weapon they'd always wanted.Satele ShanIn the end, the responsibility lies with the Republic. We should never have built such a terrible weapon.VoidhoundDidn't anyone from the Republic bother to make sure that the station was destroyed?Satele ShanThe failure occurred beyond our sensor readings. It took years for Hammer Station to drift where the Advozsec salvagers could detect it. The Senate Security Committee will decide what to do about this incident - but in my experience, truth is always best. Regardless, your valiant efforts will be remembered. Take care - and may the Force be with you. |

The operatives from both factions agreed to cooperate and destroy the station together. |

HeerimusI greet you on behalf of the great and noble Senator Doli-bur Barc. I have the honor of being his senior page.The Senator sent me as his representative, though he'd prefer to be here himself. He loves to walk among his peopleVoidhoundIf your Senator wanted to be here, he'd be here.HeerimusOh, he does. He stopped here on his way to the spaceport last year. He even waved at some of his admirers.Today, the Senator sent me to find brave and loyal citizens to help with a security crisis. It involves his work to restore the Republic to glory by re-establishing our technological superiority.Hero of TythonWe should strive for balance, not domination.HeerimusExactly, and Senator Barc's bold vision is to see the balance returned.MeteorThat's all very nice, but what's the crisis?HeerimusI was just getting to that.Recently, the Senator arranged to acquire a shipment of computer chips - advanced hardware that could create whole new industries for the Republic.Unfortunately, the shipment was hijacked by the Migrant Merchants' Guild. Now, Republic security is afraid to take on the guild's thugs.VoidhoundYou're looking for outside help?HeerimusExactly. The Senator says this issue is really over security's head anyways.Recovering the shipment of chips from the guild would be a great service to Senator Barc and the Republic.VoidhoundIs Senator Barc paying for this?HeerimusYes, of course, your fee. In his generosity, the Senator has promised to personally reward anyone who helps.To find out where the guild has hidden the Senator's shipment, you'll have to speak with Security Captain Denal-zon - he ran the investigation. Then return the shipment to Senator Barc's office in the Senate tower. I'm sure he'll want to thank you personally. |
Dialog transcript |
Denal-ZonIn accordance with Security Force Regulation 11-95, conversations with non-security personnel are to be kept to a minimum. Let's make this quick.I'm Captain Denal-zon. Senator Barc's page "ordered" me to give you information regarding the Senator's stolen goods.MeteorWhere can we find the shipment?Denal-ZonLook, I don't work for him. If you want that information, we're gonna have to come to an understanding.We'll see. Under Security Appropriations Policy B-71, I am allowed to share classified information - if you're working for us.Did the Senator's crony tell you where the shipment came from, or what these computer chips are for?Barsen'thorNow that you mention it, he didn't explain anything about the chips.Denal-ZonI'm not surprised. These political types like to gloss over details. The chips are from the planet Ryloth. They're designed to operate remote control slave collars.Under Republic Law 44-12, Rylothian slave collars and the chips used to make them are illegal in Republic space - even for Senators.MeteorWhy would a Senator need chips for slave collars?Denal-ZonTo be honest, I don't know - but it really doesn't change anything. The law is the law.VoidhoundBarc must be aware of the laws.Denal-ZonSure. He just doesn't think they apply to him. The fact is, possession of those chips is against the law.Our immediate problem is that these slave collar chips are spread around the Migrant Merchants' Guild headquarters.First priority is get the shipment together again. After that, bring the chips back to me and I'll make sure they're destroyed.Hero of TythonThat sounds like the right thing to do.Denal-ZonIt's the only thing to do.MeteorDo you intend to prosecute Senator Barc for this?Denal-ZonNot up to me. My superiors will decide how to proceed with the case.VoidhoundAre you offering a reward?Denal-ZonI can offer you the standard rate. The Senator's probably offering more, but it'll be dirty money.Find the chips and get out of the guild warehouse. Once you've got everything, I suggest you let us deal with the shipment - not the Senator. |
Dialog transcript |
Denal-ZonLook what the wampa dragged in. I was beginning to wonder if I'd see you again. Did you get the shipment of slave collar chips?Barsen'thorThey're all yours. Take these chips and destroy them, Captain.Denal-ZonOh, I will. Senator Barc'll be disappointed, but the law is the law... even for Senators. I know he probably offered more, but I can at least give you the standard rate for your work.I'd like to give more, but Security Personnel Regulation A-76 only authorizes so much for an operation like this one.MeteorWe're just glad we found them before Senator Barc did.Denal-ZonI'm with you on that. To be honest, I can't think of a more detestable technology.I've got a lot of datawork to do now. We don't want the Senator finding any fault with the way this was handled--but you've got my thanks. |

KixiaraluBeen monitoring you on the security network. You sure know how to make an entrance.Corso RiggsGuess we found our slicer - but why does this room look like a prison?KixiaraluBecause it is a prison. Thanks for noticing. Whatever issues you're having with the guild, I'm on your side. I'm just a slave here.VoidhoundYour name's Kixi, right?KixiaraluThat's my nickname - short for Kixiaralu. You... you came here for me? Then is there any chance you're here to free me? Because I'm definitely ready to not be here.The guild locked me up two years ago. Forced me to work for them. I'll do anything to get out. What do you need?VoidhoundPut me on Skavak's trail and I'll free you.KixiaraluFinding his trail is easy. Just look for the slime. I knew that Corellian pig-lizard Skavak had ticked off the wrong person. No wonder he was in such a hurry. Skavak paid the guild to clean his identity record. They made me slice into the Republic's main database and delete all his arrest warrants. The Republic administrators never even knew I was there.VoidhoundNo wonder Skavak gets around so easily - nobody's chasing him but me.KixiaraluHe mentioned some Sullustan lawman giving him trouble. Sorry, but that's all I know about Skavak. Not sure how else to help you.VoidhoundIsn't there some way to figure out where Skavak is?KixiaraluDo you know how many people are on Coruscant? It takes a lot for one man to stand out. Hang on... maybe that's it. Take away his spotless identity record, and Skavak can't walk ten meters without attracting attention. He'll be a lot easier to find. I can ruin Skavak's identity record for you in no time. If I do that, will you let me go?VoidhoundIt's a deal. I want Skavak's record dirtier than a sewer on Hutta.KixiaraluIn other words, just the way I found it. No problem. I saved copies of everything I erased from Skavak's identity record. All I have to do now is transfer the data back....There, easy. The minute he passes an identity checkpoint, it'll trigger an alarm.VoidhoundWhat else can you do to Skavak's identity record?KixiaraluDepends how much damage you're looking to inflict.VoidhoundDestroy his criminal contacts. Frame him as an undercover Republic law enforcement agent.KixiaraluYou really hate him, don't you? All right, I'll plant files with all the criminal syndicates so they think Skavak is a lawman.VoidhoundAnd make it so no woman in the galaxy will ever touch him again.KixiaraluI'll register him as a plague carrier. Give him a nice case of Bothan Nether Rot. That'll keep the girls away.VoidhoundA gangster put a price on my head. Can you fix that?KixiaraluThing about gangsters is, getting in trouble with them is easy. Getting out? That's something else. Sorry, I can't help you there. Okay. Let me go now, so I can make it out before they lock this place down.VoidhoundI was always planning to let you go.KixiaraluThank you! You're my hero! I won't mind a bit if you kill some more of those guild thugs on your way out....Corso RiggsMaybe we should go check in with Darmas - see if he's got any new info on Skavak. |
Dialog transcript |
Darmas PollaranAn informant spotted you leaving the Migrant Merchants' Guild. I trust Kixi was useful?VoidhoundKixi did a real number on Skavak's identity record.Darmas PollaranOn a world this crowded with people and technology, he can't hide for long.My sources reveal Skavak is doing business with the Black Sun gang. A dangerous friendship for all sorts of reasons. Black Sun is notorious for keeping holorecordings of all their meetings. No doubt they've preserved the highlights of Skavak's visit.VoidhoundI doubt Black Sun lets just anybody peek at their holos. Bring me up to speed on this gang.Darmas PollaranAfter the Empire sacked Coruscant, the worst criminal scum organized and called themselves Black Sun. A bit theatrical, if you ask me. Black Sun made a fortune extorting corrupt officials using their holorecordings. Nowadays, the gang records everything "just in case." Black Sun fragments its recordings over several computers to prevent unauthorized viewing. You'll have to assemble the relevant footage by accessing each computer. I should warn you, Black Sun controls an entire sector of Coruscant. They're thugs with the most horrible manners. Do be careful. Good luck. |

Indifference to the suffering of aliens?MeteorThe Republic serves its citizens, sir, and serves them well.Nik DeleruThey serve some better than others - especially if you only have two ears and two eyes.Hero of TythonIndifference is not the policy of the Jedi.Nik DeleruThen why defend an organization that ignores its alien citizens? Look around. Do we look happy here? We are peaceful merchants. It is apparently also our misfortune to be aliens.For us, there is no justice. We are ruled over by gangsters who call themselves the Migrant Merchants' Guild! While Republic security-MalNik, none of you should be living here. We can't guarantee your safety.

Forced to dance for the pleasure of scoundrels!VoidhoundWhy did the guild kidnap your mate?Nik DeleruBecause I failed to make my "protection" payments. And as you can see, Republic security couldn't care less.The guild does whatever it wishes. They are worse than Hutts! Given Republic security's apathy, what is an honest merchant to do?MalOh for goodness sake, Nik! Give it a rest!Nik DeleruThere's no telling what humiliations and depravities Ria's been forced to endure. My beloved is worth a great deal to me. Bring her back and I'll reward you handsomely!VoidhoundAll right.Nik DeleruThank the ancestors! I cannot express what this means to me!

Doesn't even have her costume on yet. Ria! Someone to see you!Ria DeleruThank you for considering Hanera's Dance Troupe for your entertainment needs. How may I please you this day?MeteorYour mate sent us. Nik's worried about you. He asked us to get you out of here.Ria DeleruBlast it. I should've known.I'm afraid you've wasted your time. I'm not here "against my will."Barsen'thorIt's okay, you can talk to me.Hero of TythonNik said you were brought here by the guild.Ria DeleruWell, yes- I mean, I was initially. But it ended up being the best thing that could've happened.I'm sorry, I should've told Nik the truth. I was just hoping to spare his feelings. Life with him was miserable. Not only were we barely scraping by, but I was fed up.His jealousy was driving me crazy! He didn't want me talking to anyone or going out. Life here is... better.Barsen'thorYou should tell Nik. Your mate probably needs to hear this.Ria DeleruI know. I should've realized he would never just let me go.VoidhoundYou prefer it here? You're really saying you'd rather be a dancer?Ria DeleruOh my stars, yes! Hanera says she's never seen someone with as much potential as me. I can really make something of myself.Nik and I left the homeworld together. His devotion was flattering... but I grew to realize the difference between love and obsession.Could you please tell Nik I was shipped off Coruscant? If he thinks I'm gone, he might move on.Hero of TythonIf that's what you want. Stay here. Your secret's safe with us.Ria DeleruThank you! I appreciate your help. Nik's not evil, but I just... couldn't stay. |

Nik DeleruYou're back! Did you find Ria? What happened?MeteorShe's gone. Your mate's no longer on Coruscant.Nik DeleruWhat? No, this can't be! Where did she go?VoidhoundShe left you. She wanted to end the relationship, so she went away. That's all I can tell you.Nik DeleruOh my poor Ria! She was my most valued possession. Why do the ancestors punish me so?I suppose we should settle up, despite the fact that you failed to bring my beloved back. This is yours.Hero of TythonYou're a terrible person. |

UrbaxThis was fun, little mouse, but we're done playing. Time to die.Miel MuwnI am a designated officer of the Sullustan Constable Brigade. Drop your weapons and surrender, or I'll be forced to discharge my weapon again.UrbaxI can't figure out if this Sullustan's deaf or just stupid.VoidhoundDo you see those ears? Sullustans have excellent hearing. All of you against one guy? That's overkill, don't you think?UrbaxI told you idiots to watch that door! Do I have to do everything myself? This is none of your business, scum. Get out while you still can.Miel MuwnWait, upstanding citizen! Under Article 11607 of the Emergency Service Laws, I hereby deputize you. These men are interfering in a criminal investigation.VoidhoundI'm sure if we ask them real nicely, they'll just leave.Miel MuwnI already encouraged these men to depart peacefully, but they failed to comply. It's possible they don't understand Sullustese. There are too many to apprehend alone. I require backup to subdue them all.VoidhoundDo I look like a deputy to you?Miel MuwnYes, of course. The planet of Sullust values all sentient life-forms. I am proud to serve with you. Please, upstanding citizen. It is your duty to assist a designated peace officer requesting aid. You will be paid appropriately for your duties as authorized by Amendment 102167 of the Sullustan Good Neighbor Act.VoidhoundYou heard the man, lawbreakers. Surrender now, or else.UrbaxYou really are as dumb as you look, aren't you? Just when I thought this conversation couldn't get any more ridiculous....Kill them both, men. |
Dialog transcript |
Miel MuwnI am grateful for your assistance, deputy. I apologize for drafting you into service on short notice, but you performed admirably.VoidhoundSticking up for the little guy is what I do best.Miel MuwnI am considered tall for a Sullustan. My species averages one point five meters in height, but I have achieved one point six meters. Regardless, you have my thanks. I will make special note of your heroism in my full report. Now that the immediate danger has passed, you may return to being an upstanding citizen.I have not properly identified myself to you. I am Officer Miel Muwn of the Sullustan Constable Brigade.VoidhoundI'm just a simple starship captain trying to earn a living.Miel MuwnNormally my reports require a full name and genetic record - but I suppose I can acknowledge you as an "unidentified innocent bystander." If you are in some sort of trouble, I might be able to help. I am a law officer, after all.I have come to Coruscant pursuing a dangerous criminal named Skavak. He is wanted by the government of Sullust for high crimes. Skavak stole a priceless relic called the Murustavan Ruby. It is a one-of-a-kind gem as large as your fist, mined from the depths of Sullust millennia ago. We revere it. My duty is to arrest him and retrieve it, even if I must act alone.VoidhoundI'm hunting Skavak, too. He stole my starship. I came here looking for information.Miel MuwnAh! I suspected your timely intervention here was not coincidence, upstanding citizen. This is good news. My sympathies on the theft of your ship. I knew I could not be the only one hunting such a notorious lawbreaker.VoidhoundDon't you have any backup? Can't you get the Republic to lend a hand?Miel MuwnSullust left the Republic after the war. Technically, I have no jurisdiction here. When I requested help from Coruscant's law enforcement, I was denied. Upstanding citizen, I do not believe your presence here is coincidental. My investigator's instincts tell me you purposely came to this docking bay.I propose we cooperate and share resources. Coruscant is large and... confusing. If I turn up any useful leads on Skavak's whereabouts, I will contact you. Can I count on you to do the same?VoidhoundI'll take any help I can get.Miel MuwnI am glad to finally have an ally on this world. Together, we will bring that lawbreaker to justice.Your help with these lawbreakers was invaluable. I will contact the local security forces and file an appropriate report with them.VoidhoundKeep my name out of that report, all right?Miel MuwnYour participation will remain confidential. I will assume full responsibility for what happened here. Based on past experience, local security will not ask many questions. I will continue my search for Skavak soon.Here is your salary allowance as codified by Article 101173 of the Sullustan Emergency Service Laws. Thank you for your brave service. I will not detain you further, upstanding citizen. Your time and assistance here is greatly appreciated. Good day.Corso RiggsLet us not be here when the local security shows up. We don't have time to answer questions. Maybe we should go see if Darmas knows anything new about Skavak? |

EgaraSee? What did I tell you? It's the captain from Rogun the Butcher's bounty posting. Are we lucky or what?RilohI never doubted you for a second, lover. You've always been my lucky star.ScorchUgh, you two make me sick. Hold it right there, Captain.VoidhoundIs that a hairstyle, or did a womp rat die on your head?ScorchDid you just... what... who do... shut up!VoidhoundLet me guess. You're bounty hunters?ScorchRight the first time - give the man a death stick! Come on, you two. Let's cremate this fool and get rich!VoidhoundYour friends have so much to live for. Why get them killed?ScorchOoh, tough talk from a scum on the run. I'm not afraid of you. I've got a flamethrower! Let's roast this stupid nerf-herder!RilohEase off, Scorch. I have a bad feeling about this captain. He looks like more than we can handle.ScorchNot man enough for a real challenge? Don't know what you see in this guy, Egara.EgaraMore than you could ever show me. Riloh, this bounty's worth more money than we earn in a month.RilohAll right, lover - but stay behind me. I don't want you getting hurt over a lousy stack of credits.VoidhoundYou kids love to talk, huh? If you want credits, I know a better way to earn them.ScorchWe're bounty hunters, stupid. This is what we do for a living.RilohShut up, Scorch. Make your offer.VoidhoundListen to me. I'm not who you think I am.ScorchOh, please. That's what they all say!VoidhoundI bet you've killed a lot of innocent people.ScorchI never flame-broiled anybody who didn't have it coming.EgaraExcept for that Rodian droid technician - and the Trandoshan cloth merchant.RilohAnd your last girlfriend. What was her name? Mira? Marzi?ScorchIt was Myrella, and that was an accident! You said this was the captain from Rogun the Butcher's bounty. Are you sure or not?EgaraI don't know! I thought I was....VoidhoundMess with me and I guarantee you'll wind up dead. Rogun made a mistake. I'm looking for someone. Ever heard of a starship thief named Skavak?RilohYou know what? I believe you. Let's get out of here.ScorchAw, come on! We can take this fool easy. This isn't fair, you guys. I was gonna buy a rocket launcher with this bounty....EgaraI'm starting to think Riloh's right. This job's too big for us. But Skavak's worth more dead than alive, Riloh. Last time I checked his bounty, it was huge.RilohWait a minute. That name sounds familiar....ScorchHow huge?RilohBuy a starship and retire huge.VoidhoundI just saw Skavak in the Black Sun hideout.RilohMy cousin runs with Black Sun. He can get us in there. Forget this captain - save ammo for Skavak.ScorchWe get the drop on Skavak, we only need one shot. That's way better than fighting this captain.VoidhoundGlad you saw reason. You kids have a nice day.ScorchWhy'd you bring up Myrella in front of a total stranger? That was just cold.... |

Darmas PollaranHaving some trouble with bounty hunters, Captain?VoidhoundOnly a little. I can't help it if I'm popular with all the wrong people. You're supposed to know everything. Why didn't you warn me about them?Darmas PollaranBeing famous has its drawbacks, doesn't it? I didn't see those wild cards coming until it was too late.VoidhoundGot anything for me about Skavak?Darmas PollaranHe's still hiding beneath whatever rock he crawled under--but I expect that will change soon. I hear Black Sun's on an emergency recruitment drive, and you had an altercation at the spaceport. I take it my lead was worthwhile.VoidhoundNo matter how close I get, I still can't catch Skavak. I need the best information you've got.Darmas PollaranYou're receiving it, I assure you. These things take time. While we wait for Skavak to make his next move, perhaps we could play a little sabacc?Corso RiggsI saw that one coming....Darmas PollaranCorso, don't be such a spoilsport. What do you say, Captain? First game's on me.VoidhoundOn second thought, how about we play a little pazaak?Darmas PollaranI'm afraid I've never been a fan. Its strategy has always felt a bit shallow.VoidhoundWhat's the harm in a friendly game of cards?Corso RiggsDon't say I didn't warn you, Captain.Darmas PollaranSabacc is the sport of spacers - everyone who's anyone plays it. Get us a round of drinks, won't you, Corso? There's a good man. Let's deal some cards....-----playing sabacc...-----Darmas PollaranYou win again. That was... very impressive.Corso RiggsImpressive? The captain just cleaned your chrono, Darmas.Darmas PollaranHmm. I'd say you've played this game before.VoidhoundI never said I was a beginner.Darmas PollaranThen I'm a victim of my assumptions. Well played, my friend. Hold on, I'm receiving an alert from my network. This may be what we've been waiting for.... Looks like your efforts have paid off, Captain. My informants just witnessed Skavak fighting someone and fleeing into Justicars' territory. We have him!VoidhoundWho are these "Justicars"?Darmas PollaranThey're vigilantes - self-appointed "judges" of a whole city sector. Executioners is more like it.VoidhoundDid your informants say who Skavak was fighting?Darmas PollaranAn alien of some sort, according to this report. Very peculiar.VoidhoundTell me where I'm going, Darmas.Darmas PollaranYou're headed into one of the most dangerous parts of Coruscant. The Justicars don't tolerate outsiders in their sector. They've been known to "punish" non-humans simply for being alien. Skavak must truly be desperate to risk his life going there. You'll want to avoid the Justicars unless you're particularly hungry for a fight. They're all ex-soldiers and armed to the teeth.My informants are a brother and sister named Jiik and Juul. They know where to find Skavak. I'll tell them you're coming. Play your hand carefully in the Justicar sector. My instincts tell me Skavak hasn't shown all his cards yet.VoidhoundI'll keep that in mind.Darmas PollaranGood luck to you, Captain. I hope you make Skavak pay all his debts. |

AnstissHalt, citizens. I'm seeing double, but you all look like you can handle yourself. Officer Anstiss. Nice to... ouch... meet you. Apparently I've got enemies back at HQ.Got the unenviable task of arresting Gambo - Black Sun enforcer with a string of murders to his name. I've gone inside the Dealer's Den half a dozen times to confront him, and he's beaten me within a centimeter of my life each time.Hero of TythonMaybe I should talk to Gambo.AnstissA Jedi might at least make him think twice, if that's a serious offer. But Gambo doesn't talk, except with his fists.Meteor If an attack fails, you don't keep using it.AnstissStrategy for security officers is pretty much limited to shock sticks and neural bands. The Republic doesn't kill its criminals, even if they're asking for it.Barsen'thorYou don't look so good.AnstissMy head's pounding and you're covered in spots. I've been better.AnstissGambo's vicious, and he's been terrorizing this sector for months. As long as he's at-large, the public's not safe. I'd call for backup, but frankly, Gambo could tear through that whole cantina if he had a mind to. He needs to be talked down or knocked out if I'm going to arrest him. I'm no match, but you might have a shot.Hero of TythonWe'll go talk to Gambo. You should get to a medcenter.AnstissI won't leave my post. I can't take Gambo, but I can keep tabs on him.No one sees Gambo without going through Zooki, his lookout. If you're lucky, Gambo might give you a few words before he starts swinging. Use them wisely. |

Hero of TythonWe need to talk to Gambo.ZookiGambo doesn't like to be bothered. Republic security keeps bothering him. Gambo's getting angry. He tells me leave him alone, or I get thumped. I'm not getting thumped for you.MeteorWe can handle Gambo. He won't hurt you.ZookiOkay. But I think we all get thumped.ZookiSaid they had to see you, boss. Might have been talking to Republic security.GamboRepublic security already sent someone. I broke her. I'll break you, too. Tell Republic security my fists are tired. If you live.Barsen'thorForce PersuadeYou don't want to fight us. You want to turn yourself in.GamboI don't want to fight you. I gotta go turn myself in.ZookiGambo! Wait! That's a dirty trick, Jedi. |

Spirakris ZaremHello, patriot. I hope you remain dedicated to the protection of the true Republic. It's fantastic, isn't it? I mean the Senate tower. I was raised there. My father was an admiral and my mother was a Senator, but they were both killed during the war.Barsen'thorThat's tragic. I'm sorry to hear it.Spirakris ZaremDon't be. They gave their lives to protect this great Republic.I'm sorry - my name is Spirakris Zarem. I used to be military, then a diplomat. But not anymore. Now, I represent a group of loyal citizens, willing to go to any length to protect the true Republic from its enemies.MeteorWhat exactly is the "true Republic"?Spirakris ZaremThe true Republic is the one based on ideals - on the principles that carried us through history. Until now. I won't lie to you. The members of my organization prefer to remain anonymous, but we are patriots from all levels of society. Dangerous radicals are about to make a massive power play in the Senate. Senator Glearius Parvil is gathering support to break ties with the Jedi and establish an alliance with the Sith Empire.Hero of TythonWhy would the Republic break ties with the Jedi?Spirakris ZaremBecause your order would never agree to an alliance with the Empire, and that's what the Senator wants. And Parvil actually believes he's trying to save the Republic.MeteorSeems like everybody's jumping ship these days.Spirakris ZaremNo doubt. First it was just some fringe star systems, but now it's happening a lot closer to home.VoidhoundCan't say I'd want to worry about Imperial law enforcement....Spirakris ZaremNo. I imagine not, Captain. So I hope you can help.If the Senator gets his way, it would mean the end of everything the Republic stands for. My colleagues discovered a way to expose Parvil's plan to the public; turn the political tide against this insanity. But our one shot's about to pass us by. Parvil's put us all on Senate security's watch list. We can't even get near the tower.MeteorYou said "your one shot." You have an idea....Spirakris ZaremYou mean you might actually be willing to help us?A diplomatic parcel is being delivered to Senator Parvil's office. All you'd have to do is steal the parcel and smuggle it out to me. Will you do it?Hero of TythonOur duty is to serve the Senators, not steal from them.Spirakris ZaremYou'll be serving the Empire if Senator Parvil gets his way. You must stop him.VoidhoundSounds like a good way to get myself killed.Spirakris ZaremNot at all. We have a plan in place. The risk is minimal.We can reward you for your help. I don't know if that changes anything... A courier droid is delivering the documents to Senator Parvil. Use this scrambler box and it'll hand the parcel to you. Just intercept it before it reaches his office. I'll be waiting here. |
Dialog transcript |
Senator Parvil's PageStop right there! I see what you're doing. How dare you accost the Senator's courier droid? Stealing documents - what's the matter with you? This is the heart of the Republic, the greatest bastion of democracy in the galaxy!VoidhoundI don't know what you're talking about.Senator Parvil's PageDon't lie! We both know you came here to sabotage Senator Parvil's work. I know you people and your drivel about protecting the "true" Republic. However unpopular Senator Parvil's ideas might be, the principles of the Republic give him the freedom to express those ideas.Hero of TythonThe Senator's ideas would destroy the Republic.Senator Parvil's PageYou don't speak for the Republic, Jedi. Your own order's outdated ideals cause more harm than good.MeteorYou mean let a traitor spread his lies? Not in my Republic.Senator Parvil's PageListen to yourself. This is "our" Republic, not "yours."VoidhoundAnd I have the freedom to stop him.Senator Parvil's PageNot according to the laws of the Republic, you don't. Your opinion of Senator Parvil's ideas doesn't matter. The issues should be decided by political discourse, not political sabotage.Barsen'thorI suppose.Senator Parvil's PageExactly. Thank you. If you take the Senator's documents, you spit on everything the Republic stands for. But... the real culprits here are the paranoid fanatics you've gotten yourself tangled up with.VoidhoundWe don't even know who they are.Senator Parvil's PageWhich is precisely why you should feel no allegiance to them whatsoever. Senator Parvil has every right to exercise his political ideas. It would be criminal to steal his parcel. I have this parcel of out-dated agricultural revenue documents. Give me the Senator's parcel and take these to your friends instead.MeteorAll right, The Senator can continue... for now. We'll take back the fakes. |
Dialog transcript |
Spirakris ZaremThere you are. I was beginning to worry Senate security was causing you trouble. How did it go? Did you get Parvil's documents?Hero of TythonThere was a complication - a Senate page found me.Spirakris ZaremIt doesn't matter. So long as you have the evidence we need. I'm glad you pulled it off. You deserve a medal for this, you know. Rest easy knowing Senator Parvil's motion will never pass.MeteorThat was a one-time deal.Spirakris ZaremWhether you're proud of it or not, you are a hero of the true Republic. |

Pat-aKSenator, please comprehend. Repairing Coruscant's infrastructure is green obtuse. To form the red parallel, we require a black bisector.OrandaUh, this is pointless. I can't understand a word you're saying.Pat-aKI use mistaken words and request patience. This will be clearer. The lower levels are alarming and filled with casualties. Active collaborators can solve problems.OrandaExcuse me. Can any of you tell what this ambassador droid is trying to say?Hero of TythonAmbassador droid? Aren't ambassadors usually organic?OrandaThis is an unusual situation. I'm Senator Oranda. From Agamar. Small agricultural world with no real pull in the Senate, trying to change that by helping get Coruscant running again.This is Pat-aK, from the Gree enclave. Before you ask, the Gree are a remote people, isolationist. They helped build Coruscant's original infrastructure. We asked for assistance with repairs, they sent the droids.MeteorWhat sort of infrastructure needs repairing?OrandaPower, water and waste reprocessing. Things this world needs to survive. The war left a lot of Coruscant in bad shape.Pat-aKThe enclave bargains resources and offers reversal of Coruscant's yellow concave. We commit to white vertex to achieve this.OrandaGree droids seem to speak in Gree patterns. So this gibberish is what I've got to rebuild Coruscant with.Pat-aKI speak attentively in hopes of comprehension. The bargain encounters great challenges. My delegates suffer assault effecting the maintenance. Fire, damage and fear. Do you follow?Barsen'thorThere's something threatening stopping you from doing your job? Pat-aKThat is an approximate understanding, yes. Your comprehension is high. My delegates comprehend your terms too well. They reject transit beyond this tower.OrandaCoruscant needs these repairs to continue functioning. Pat-aK, you have to convince your delegates to brave these dangers.Pat-aKImpossible. My delegates require aid from one accustomed to fire, damage and chaos. A black bisector, you see?MeteorLet us help your delegates.Hero of TythonThis is dangerous work - Jedi work.Pat-aKJedi? Ah! Even Gree comprehend this nature. Jedi are black bisector and red equilateral at once.And... I sense-soak-perceive you are one of these elite. You radiate experience of green-yellow-white perpendiculars.I observe you embody deliberate facetiousness, a black bisector survival trait. Exceptional.OrandaListen, the ambassador droid seems to like you. If you're willing to take on the risk to complete these repairs, it could mean everything to Coruscant.Pat-aKI will compensate the black bisector with useful and valued items only available from the enclave. My delegates will describe their black spheres for you. These are bold, courageous, mission-callings. Speak to them and learn. |
Dialog transcript |
Pat-aKThe black bisector returns prosperous, and we form the red parallel, Senator Oranda. The Enclave-Republic bargain evolves achievement.OrandaSo you succeeded? You really helped all the Gree, uh, "delegates" complete their repairs to the infrastructure?Barsen'thorEventually, yes.Pat-aKThe enclave delivers its promised Gree ingenuity, Senator. Coruscant acquires purple equilateral, and the enclave requests Republic reciprocity.OrandaAmbassador droid Pat-aK, the Republic has other damaged worlds that could benefit from your "Gree ingenuity." I propose drafting a formal treaty between the Republic and the Gree enclave. What do you say to that?Pat-aKYou seek a blue parallel with the enclave? I am astonished-gratified-challenged by the prospect. Let us initiate renewed white vertex at once!Hero of TythonI'm glad to have aided the formation of this new alliance.OrandaBy your actions, we see that Gree technology will be invaluable as we rebuild the rest of the Republic.VoidhoundI see you've finally broken the language barrier.OrandaI swear, sometimes he uses the same phrase to mean completely different things, but I'm getting the hang of it. You have my thanks for all your efforts. I had almost given up on these droids before you came along. That would have been a costly mistake.Pat-aKAcknowledgment and profound tribute, black bisector. This collaboration achieves through you. |

Nam-aKNever going back... never going back to blue nonagon. Now, I am yellow concave. Injuries mark my chassis forever, and why? Ungrateful humans!MeteorHow were you damaged?Nam-aKFire, smoke, blades. The occupants of level below committed numerous assaults. My safe return was improbable. It is blue nonagon and horrible. Never going back.Coruscant's life-waters are sluggish-stagnant. Pat-aK commanded me, go to the level below, repair the broken hydrosupply, make clean life-waters flow. I crafted a solution to achieve Pat-aK's command. All was orange sphere, until I arrived at the level below. Then, green perpendicular!Barsen'thorHow were you going to fix the hydrosupply?Nam-aKI crafted a durable object of Gree ingenuity, perfectly-aligned for the needed maintenance. Pat-aK failed to impart the lethal conflict-enemies waiting on the level below. Many weapons and offenders despising my arrival. I fled Black Sun with my crafted solution intact, but the repair progresses unresolved. Coruscant's life-waters remain sluggish-stagnant without repairs. The hydrosupply must have my crafted solution.Hero of TythonCan I take your crafted solution to the hydrosupply?Nam-aKYou offer yourself as a black bisector? That is a gratifying unpredicted announcement! I pledge to provide items of Gree ingenuity in return. Take and apply my crafted solution to the hydrosupply. But do not apply before deactivating nearby flow-valves, or pressure-explosion-death will result! Be alerted, Black Sun green perpendicular will provide onslaught. May you experience blue tangent and return intact.... |

WaarinHey, what are you doing? Get away from that! Back off! This is our hydrosupply, and we like it broken. Now get lost.VoidhoundWhat are you kids doing here?WaarinWe live here. Who do you think you are, stomping in here like this? We need this water. We don't have any money, and there's nowhere else in the district to get water for free. We'll die if it gets shut off.MeteorWhat happened to your parents?WaarinThey died in the war, all right? We're on our own now.Hero of TythonI gave my word as a Jedi to repair this device.Hero of TythonYou're a Jedi? Aren't you supposed to help people?Barsen'thorMany more will die if the hydrosupply is not repaired.WaarinNobody cares about us, why should we care?VoidhoundYou can always get by if you've got five fingers, kid.WaarinI've stolen stuff before, but I hate it. Everybody I take things from is poor like us.MeteorIf I gave you some credits, would you be able to find a new place to go?WaarinYeah, that'd be a start. It'll take a lot, though. Are you gonna give us enough?MeteorThis should take care of you and your friends.WaarinWhoa! I've never even seen that many credits before. We can trade for a long time with these. Thanks! |

Sealing the break promotes their safety.Clean life-waters flow and nurture upper levels. The Coruscant sufferer-beings achieve benefits of the enclave's Gree ingenuity. My black sphere evolves to a purple parallel because of you. When I impart this development, Pat-aK will progress enthusiasm with the Senator.Hero of TythonWe're glad life on Coruscant will be better now.Nam-aKThe city-planet's infrastructure expresses elementary designs.

VoidhoundThat was a fairly unsubtle attempt to get my attention.Nalrin DaheelOh, but I represent the Republic. Senator Nalrin Daheel, representative of the wisdom and beauty of the Ugnaught people. And I've heard you're a friend to our interests. I thought you might help me out.That is Senator Gunaray Dod. The great lout is more than ugly. He's corrupt right up to those tiny ears. He's been paying the Black Sun to harass his political opponents and has blocked all attempts to curb their violence. But I can make no formal accusation without proof.MeteorIf this is true, it is our duty to unveil this corruption.Nalrin DaheelYour honesty provides you the dignity of an Ugnaught.Dod is paying the Black Sun with Kavin bills, an ancient currency from his homeworld that is almost never found elsewhere. If you find Black Sun thugs in possession of these bills, it is all I need. And no one would mourn if your search cleared our streets of gangsters. Bring me any Kavin bills you find. I will see you rewarded with far more than their worth in credits. |

Nurls YorkinHey there, strangers. You look like you know your way around a dock.Agent Yorksin, SIS. Never mind the outfit. I'm undercover. I need help. We've been moving our people into the Finaq Shipping Company for months. We want to stop contraband weapons shipments. Now Black Sun's started hijacking Finaq's freighters - killing the crew and grabbing the cargo. If I send in SIS, our cover is blown - we start all over.MeteorI think we can make a few hijackers regret their choice of career...Nurls YorkinOnce they're taken care of, we need to know where they take the freight.VoidhoundYou need me to bring back the cargo?Nurls YorkinJust let me know where they're taking the freight. I'll send my team. Try checking around the docks - Black Sun's got to have a loader programmed to offload the cargo somewhere secure. |
Dialog transcript |
Nurls YorkinI heard you sent the Black Suns packing. Have you tracked down where they took the cargo yet?I'll send a security cleaning crew down there immediately. Then we can try to patch up this operation. |

StansunKeeping Coruscant clean's a dirty job, but it's good to see I've got company. I'm Officer Stansun, Republic security. We're fighting a war against the Black Sun. Wish I could say we're winning. Word has it they're running an illegal surgery clinic, giving wanted criminals new faces. Helps them dodge arrest.MeteorRepublic security should end their operation.StansunWe've tried, but the facility moves shop the second they see our uniforms.More and more dangerous criminals slip through our fingers every day. Unfortunately, they move shop whenever Republic security swoops in. But maybe you could pay this clinic a visit. Smash their illegal surgery droids, pull their patient files. Show them the Republic's still in charge.MeteorBlack Sun's clinic won't operate another day.StansunGood to hear. The sooner we shut them down, the quicker we can clean up Coruscant.Destroy the Black Sun surgery droids then download their patient files. That's all we need to pull the masks off their criminal clients. |
Dialog transcript |
MeteorThe clinic's not taking any more patients. And here are those records you wanted.StansunPerfect. With them, we can ID those face-swapping thugs.Nice work, Lieutenant. Coruscant's going to be a cleaner place thanks to you.Thanks for this. Closing that clinic's a big win for Republic security, and for the people of Coruscant. |

Dooce EvertonDid Lobacc send you? Guess not. Detective Dooce Everton. Senate security hired me to get hard evidence on who's pulling the strings in the Black Sun. Someone they can put behind bars. I was hoping one of my informants sent you.MeteorWhat evidence are you looking for? We might know something.Dooce EvertonThey'll take anything I can give them - names, known hideouts, family members....VoidhoundIs this a paid position? I've done worse.Dooce EvertonI've got a budget. You want to help out, I'm sure I can get the Senate to cover the extra.I've been working a snitch for a while, finally got him ready to give holo-evidence against the heavy hitters in the Black Sun.But he'll only meet on his turf. It's a cantina, worst of the worst, blaster fights every night. I'm known down there and I wouldn't make it back.MeteorI'd like to see one of these thugs take on Havoc Squad.Dooce EvertonThat would be a sight. Almost makes me want to come along. Almost.VoidhoundI think I know that spot - I've got a tab there.Dooce EvertonYou looked like the lower levels might be your stomping grounds.Lobacc should be waiting at these coordinates. I'll call ahead; tell him to expect an... unusual... group.Then you just need to make it out with the recordings before the Black Sun tries to take it off your fresh bleeding corpse. |
Dialog transcript |
VoidhoundI'm here to pick up the recordings you have for Dooce Everton. I'm here to pick up the recordings you have for Dooce Everton.Deringon LobaccYou want to spray paint that on the walls or anything? Little discretion, here!Tell Dooce it's just what he asked for. Enough for the Republic to make arrests, Black Sun, the real stuff. Hope they can make it stick.This is Coruscant... you shouldn't have to be afraid for your life just because you get off the wrong elevator. |
Dialog transcript |
VoidhoundLobacc says the recordings in here should be enough to make arrests.Dooce EvertonPerfect. Perfect. I already talked to the Senate about getting you paid.If this really helps put the Black Sun out of commission, it's blasted priceless.If the violence gets any worse, the Senate's talking about giving up the lower levels altogether. |

TheraguinHey there. Always good to see another brave soul - there aren't many of us left. I'm Captain Theraguin - last officer on the job here since the patrols stopped. Welcome to Black Sun territory.MeteorAre you saying there's no security down here?TheraguinYou kidding me? My commander gave up on this sector a long time ago. I shouldn't even be here.The locals only venture out of their apartments when they have to scrounge for supplies.Now with no security forces, what future do they have? And Black Sun has a new game. Call it "Boom."VoidhoundUh-oh.TheraguinBlack Sun steals Republic supply crates, takes the supplies out, then rigs the crates with explosives.Then they set the trapped crates in the street; make bets on how long before some fool tries to open them.Hero of TythonWhy would anyone do a thing like that?TheraguinI don't know. You want to be charitable, assume Black Sun doesn't think straight.MeteorOnly cowards attack civilian targets.TheraguinYeah. It's one thing when the gangs shoot at us - but killing innocents for fun?Barsen'thorHasn't someone tried to do something?TheraguinThe locals don't know what's going on. And like I said before, security can't patrol here anymore.Barsen'thorIt takes a dark soul to do such a thing.TheraguinDidn't believe it until I saw it with my own eyes - this mousy little woman - blown to pieces.I try to defuse the crates myself - the mechanics are simple, but Black Sun's everywhere. Nearly killed me last time.Hero of TythonWe can handle Black Sun. We want to make things right.TheraguinThat's- thank you. That's just what I needed to hear.Now, Black Sun's explosives are pretty simple. I can show you what to do.Anything you can do... I'll be more than grateful. But be damn careful. |
Dialog transcript |
TheraguinHaven't heard an explosion in a good while. Guess that means you defused those crates.MeteorWe think I found them all. Let's hope Black Sun doesn't get any more. Ran into some thugs....TheraguinWe'll make sure. No more people will be killed looking for food.Black Sun's more than a match for security. I'm glad you were here to help.Now, I'm no rich Senator, but let me give you a little something for taking care of this. Recognition.MeteorIt's a generous offer, but we can't accept.VoidhoundLook, I don't normally do charity, but... let's say someone owes me a drink, okay?TheraguinRare to find someone not out to make a profit.You probably have other business, so I won't keep you. Watch your back out there. |

FolarisHey. Why don't you hold up a minute? I'm Folaris. I think you and I should have a private chat.VoidhoundYou want to talk, talk fast.Don't worry. It will only take a second. There's a rumor going around that Black Sun's about to clean house. Snitches, rival gang leaders - they're all gonna be dead meat. There's a list of these unfortunate individuals sitting on their computers. I need those names.MeteorSounds to me like you're in law enforcement.FolarisLet's just say I'm interested in what's best for the people of Coruscant.Barsen'thorYou seem to know an awful lot.FolarisAnonymous sources, who need to stay that way. I can slice into Black Sun's computers and get the hit list, but they'll be able to trace me. So, while I'm slicing in, I need someone to break into the Black Sun hideout and shut down their tracing equipment. Think you can do that?VoidhoundDo you really want to put your life in our hands to get this list?FolarisDon't have much choice, do I? I need that list, and I need it yesterday. Time to make this happen. All right... go! Go! |
Dialog transcript |
FolarisWell, since I haven't been visited by any large, angry Black Sun thugs, I take it you got everything taken care of?MeteorOf course it's taken care of.Whew... all right, that's great news. What a relief. Here - something for your trouble. I can't thank you enough for your help. Ha... you know, it's funny. There are people who would pay a frigate-load of credits for this list.MeteorThat list should be going to your superiors!FolarisMaybe so. But they don't pay me nearly enough for the risks I take down here everyday.Hero of TythonSo you had an ulterior motive all along.No, it's nothing like that. I was just thinking, it'd be nice to make a little something extra, wouldn't it?Barsen'thorIf you sell the list, you'll be exposed as the thief.FolarisMaybe, maybe not. There are ways to avoid that kind of attention.MeteorSensitive intel like that could cause havoc in the wrong hands.FolarisIf the list goes public, everyone on it would be warned - and we'd make a tidy profit. I know a guy, Nizkif. He's an "information broker." Nizkif hangs out at the Dealer's Den, a cantina in the old Galactic Market.Hero of TythonThat list should be used to save lives.FolarisYou just don't give in, do you? Ah, you're right, I shouldn't be looking for a quick profit. I'll make sure the list ends up in the right hands. Lives are more important than credits anyhow. See you around, then. Thanks again for all your help. |

DoornLook at this place. Nothing but freeloading tramps. I don't know why we bother. I used to be proud to say, "Lieutenant Doorn, Coruscant Security Forces." These days, it's just a job. Doesn't even pay the bills.MeteorYou should be proud of what you do.DoornRight now, I'm just trying to keep my head above the garbage.VoidhoundSounds like things are rough.DoornYeah, and it just keeps coming. But this is my family's only income.Now some stupid holodisc was stolen, and the commander wants me to deal with it! I don't have the manpower to recover stolen intelligence! I- I can't just pull a commando unit out of my helmet, can I?MeteorYou've got an elite commando unit right here.DoornYou're volunteering? I was probably gonna figure something out, but hey, I'll take you up on that.Here's the deal: You probably don't know 'em, but there're these weird secret passages running all over the planet. Funny thing is, we didn't even know about these passages until the schematics were stolen off an old databank! So they can sneak around the planet and get away with who knows what! But now that the commander's realized they exist, he wants to make use of them. Figures, don't it?But the schematics weren't taken by some gutter thief. They were taken by the blasted Justicars! Crazy vigilantes - the Justicars are armed to the teeth. Most of my security officers just flat-out refuse to tangle with them. We don't get paid enough to stick our necks out too far.Barsen'thorSometimes it's necessary to risk ourselves for the greater good.DoornThat's easy for a Jedi to say. My men don't see fighting the Justicars as a risk, they see it as suicide. My team has some good men, but the Justicars are beyond any of us. Simple as that.There's another detail: We don't know where the Justicars took the stolen schematics. An agent from the Strategic Information Service was assigned to track the thieves, but she hasn't reported back in.MeteorRescuing this spy should be top priority.Take it easy - I'm sure the spy's fine. She just might be able to help you track down the schematics. Her name is Fieler Dan. A little old and a little batty, if you ask me. Fieler's last known location was in Justicar territory. If she's done her job, she should know where to find those schematics.Hero of TythonYou can count on us.DoornNow keep in mind - worthless as they may be, we're under strict orders to make sure these schematics aren't leaked to anyone. So after you find old lady Fieler and recover the schematics, you make sure to bring them directly back to me. That's critical. |
Dialog transcript |
Fieler DanWhat do you want? I'm just an old woman minding her own business. Haven't done nothing to no one.VoidhoundI take it you're the Republic spy?Fieler DanOh, so you're my backup! About time! I'm risking my neck loitering here! Republic security needs to get its act together! Downright insulting this has taken so long!MeteorThe lieutenant said you never contacted him.Fieler DanHe's never heard of "radio silence"? Idiot.Barsen'thorYou must be more patient.Fieler DanDue respect, Jedi, you don't have to deal with Republic security every day. I do.Look, I tracked the data thieves down here, and I'm positive the Justicars took the schematics to their base. Probably to their main computer. You do realize, though, that once you take the schematics back, they'll just gather dust in some security storeroom.Hear me out on this... my daughter runs a relief group called "Undercity Assistance." They bring food and supplies to the poor in the lower levels. These schematics would help them avoid the gangs down here.Hero of TythonI don't see any reason you couldn't copy the maps you need.Fieler DanThat's just what I was thinking. Just bring the holodisc back to me after you get it, and I can make a copy for my daughter.MeteorWe'll do it.Fieler DanYou have all the information I can give. Go pay a visit to the Justicars - and if you want that data put to good use, I'll be here. |
Dialog transcript |
Fieler DanWell now, look here, the hotshot's back after busting into the Justicars' base. Did you find the holodisc, kid? Can I make a copy for my daughter?MeteorHere - make your copy and give it back.Fieler DanI had a good feeling the minute I met you. A quick copy - and there's your holodisc. Easy enough. You remember this: Undercity Assistance will use these secret passages to help people in need.Hero of TythonCoruscant needs all the help it can get right now.Fieler DanNice to work with someone who knows what they're doing. Now take that disc back so security can ignore it again. |
Dialog transcript |
DoornYou've been gone a while - I'm even working overtime. My commander's calling every five minutes, bugging me about those schematics. You get them from the Justicars?MeteorYes.DoornFinally. Here's what I can pay you - plus a little extra for hazard duty. And... can we keep this quiet? Hiring you to get this back makes the rest of us look bad.Hero of TythonThose schematics could be very helpful. Be sure they aren't wasted.DoornWell, my commander's real excited to see these secret passages. But we'll see if he actually follows through. Either way, you spared my team a massive headache and probably even a few casualties. |

JuulThe captain, right? About time you got here! Thanks to you, the Justicars snagged my brother Jiik. Never should've tangled ourselves in your cloudhead business.VoidhoundKid, I have no idea what you're talking about.JuulTypical cloudhead. Don't know which way is up unless a turfer explains it. Listen hard and wise up!VoidhoundWhat do you mean by "cloudhead"?JuulYou're from where the air is thin and heads are soft. This is turfer land. Wise up and grab some ground! I'm Juul. My brother Jiik and I were watching Skavak for you. Big mistake. Nothing but trouble. Things always go bad for turfers when cloudheads come down here. Never should have took this job.VoidhoundAre you done berating me yet?JuulI haven't even started. You kept me worrying and waiting a long time. You live in the clouds. You don't know anything about turfer land.VoidhoundI've got problems of my own. Just tell me where Skavak is.JuulYou get yours, and us turfers take care of ourselves, right? Wrong! Now you get to work like us. Jiik and I were tailing Skavak when the Justicars came after us. Jiik stuck to Skavak. I drew the Justicars. I lost those helmet-brains easy, but they snagged Jiik and hauled him off to their detention center!VoidhoundWhy would the Justicars arrest your brother?JuulI don't know. Those lock-steppers make up the rules as they go.VoidhoundMaybe I can help.JuulLike you have a choice. Our bad luck is your bad luck. You better wise up and start caring about me and my brother. Jiik knows where Skavak went, but he didn't have time to spill it to me before they snagged him. You want Skavak? Better prowl into the Justicars' detention center and free my brother.VoidhoundJailbreaks aren't exactly easy, kid.JuulLike I don't know that? This is life in turfer land. Welcome to it. But listen, I got an idea how to do it. There's ways into the detention center besides the front door. An old industrial gas tunnel runs right under that place. The tunnel fumes won't kill you, but you'll come out smelling like rancor droppings. Still, it's the smart turfer's way inside the place.VoidhoundI happen to like the smell of rancor droppings.JuulI can never tell if you cloudheads are joking or just stupid. Once inside the detention center, you have to bash all the Justicar droid-eyes. That's how they track intruders. If those droid-eyes aren't rubble, the Justicars will know your face. You don't want that.VoidhoundI've never heard of a "droid-eye" before.JuulWhatever you call them - it's tech that watches the hallways, okay? Make sure you get all the droid-eyes. It's the only way we get out of this clean, understand? Don't just stand there goggling at me. Get Jiik out of that detention center before something happens to him!VoidhoundIf I do this, you have to stop calling me a cloudhead.JuulDon't bet on it. Take this holotransmitter with you. I want to talk to Jiik as soon as you free him. |

Miel MuwnUpstanding citizen? Hello! Over here! Help me!VoidhoundMiel? You're in jail? I take it you met the Justicars.Miel MuwnThey are lawbreakers pretending to be peace officers. That is a severe offense under Statute 52974 of the Sullustan Criminal Code. The fugitive Skavak ambushed me down here and fled. The Justicars interrupted my pursuit and demanded I surrender. VoidhoundDid you at least manage to wound him?Miel MuwnSkavak and I exchanged fire without incident, unfortunately.VoidhoundYou were supposed to contact me when you found Skavak.Miel MuwnI would have, but my holotransmitter was destroyed during Skavak's ambush.I must yield to local constables when I am out of my jurisdiction. I did not want to harm people who I believed were local authorities, so I surrendered and allowed the Justicars to bring me here.VoidhoundThe Justicars are a bunch of crazy vigilantes.Miel MuwnI became aware of my error when they put me in a cell. Luckily, they forgot about me when they brought a male human in for interrogation.Corso RiggsMight as well spring the little fella while we're here.VoidhoundDon't worry, I won't leave you in there.Miel MuwnThis is the second time you have come to my aid. I owe you a significant debt. I must re-arm and renew my pursuit of Skavak. Thank you for your help, upstanding citizen.VoidhoundGet out of here before the Justicars come back. I'm really not an upstanding citizen.Miel MuwnYou are too modest. Of everyone I have encountered on Coruscant, you are by far the most upstanding. When I return to Sullust, I will file a Form 453391 and request an official commendation for your actions today. |

JiikI... I feel like my insides are coming out.VoidhoundYour sister sent me. On your feet, Jiik. Let's get you out of here.JiikHeh. You're definitely not a Justicar. All they ever called me was "gutter scum."JuulJiik? It's me, Juul. Are you alright? What did those Justicars do to you?JiikHey, sis. Knew you wouldn't forget about me. Who's the cloudhead?JuulThe captain Darmas asked us to help. What happened when you followed Skavak? How come the Justicars snagged you?JiikSaw something I wasn't supposed to. You won't believe this, but I caught the Justicars trading supplies with the Empire.VoidhoundThat's a strange friendship.JuulSome turfers think a few Imperials stayed behind after the war ended. I always thought it was just stories to scare the kids.VoidhoundWhat about Skavak?JiikOh, yeah. Almost forgot about him, what with the beatings and torture.... Skavak and the Imperials were laughing about something. Not sure what. The Imperials took Skavak into the Works.VoidhoundTell me about the Works. I've never heard of this place. What's it like?JuulThe Works is nothing but toxic ruins and berserk droids. People who go down there don't come back. If Skavak dropped to the Works, you may as well go home. You wouldn't last five minutes.Corso RiggsWe're pretty good. Bet we last ten minutes.VoidhoundSkavak stole my ship, and I'm not letting him get away. If Skavak and the Imperials can survive down there, so can I.JuulThat ship must be something if you're willing to die over it. You're a lot braver than I thought. Or dumber.JiikI'd like to go home, now. This is the worst party I've ever been to.JuulJiik, remember the tunnel we found? Crawl in and come to the warehouse. I'll hide you from the Justicars.JiikGreat. I'm gonna smell like rancor droppings for a week. Thanks for busting me out, Captain.VoidhoundYou're hurt pretty bad, Jiik. Sure you can make it?JiikI've been beat up a lot worse than this. Well, not really... but I'll be alright.JuulJiik, take my holotransmitter from the captain before you leave. I'm not letting you out of my sight.JiikDon't be so dramatic. It was only a little torture. Good luck down in the Works, Captain. You'll need it. |

Hib-R-akOperator units always inherit fouled labors. I administrate as well as Pat-aK, but I am marooned to waste processing! What have I done to incur white acute?Barsen'thorUnhappiness is a sign one has lost one's balance.Hib-R-akMy gyros respond positively. Balance remains stable. Your statement advances nothing.MeteorIs that what you are? An Operator unit?Hib-R-akYou submit curiosity? Bewildering. Foreign species customarily embody flawless self-centeredness. Gree units fulfill four caste-assignments: Crafter, Operator, Researcher and Administrator. I am Operator. I ensure proper function of Gree ingenuity. Pat-aK is Administrator unit. His sole aptitude is communication-command-governance-argument. I can serve Pat-aK's function. Can he serve mine? No!Hero of TythonIf you dislike your assignment so much, why not change to a different one?Hib-R-akMy aptitudes are gray sphere, but the enclave permits only Operator unit assignment. This is inequitable distribution of my aptitudes.VoidhoundHow do you know you can do Pat-aK's job?Hib-R-akI share aptitude for communication-command-governance-argument. Operator caste was compelled to me, not programmed at origin.Pat-aK commanded me: Optimize Coruscant's waste processing system. Preserve your organs from filth-disease-poisons. But Ugnaught porcine-bipeds plunder Gree ingenuity from waste processors. With Gree optimization solution stolen, filth-disease-poisons spread uncontrolled. Plagues imminent!MeteorWhat would Ugnaughts gain from possessing your technology?Hib-R-akMany species attempt access of Gree ingenuity. This is no white convex- ah, mystery-puzzle-labor. The Ugnaught porcine-bipeds plundered Gree optimization solution unaware of internal transmitters. I detect the plundered device's coordinates. Pat-aK authorizes compensation of Republic credits to the black bisector who repossesses the optimization solution.MeteorYou can count on us.Hib-R-akThat is the expected response, black bisector. Why exhaust respiratory functions on it? |

GotrutNo blasters! We got no blasters! It's just a workshop. We're not with those Justicar crazies you been fightin' out there.MeteorCooperate and you won't be harmed. Where's the Gree device?GotrutOh, great. I told you guys we should've left that alien thing where it belonged!Take it, all right? We thought we could make it work, but we can't. We'll have to find some other way to save everyone on this level.MeteorAre the people on this level in some kind of danger?GotrutYes. We're not thieves, we're engineers. We work to keep this area clean and safe, but it's gettin' harder every day to do that. People here count on us for essential services. We give them power and light.The Gree stuff is all yours, don't worry. We never woulda taken it if we weren't in such a hopeless situation. This level's got a big problem we can't fix. The air filters stopped working. The Senate won't send anybody to make repairs, and things are gettin' bad. We got too many people living in the same area.Barsen'thorThis is Coruscant. Why wouldn't the Senate help with repairs?GotrutThey don't bother keepin' any of our major systems running. Why should they, when the Justicars won't let 'em in?VoidhoundIt sounds like it's time to find a new home.GotrutCoruscant's always been our home. We're all here because we believe in the Republic. Can't you understand that?Without our air filters, the smog seeps in fast, which is even harder on the non-humanoids. Pretty soon we're gonna have an epidemic on our hands.Hero of TythonThere must be some way to avoid that outcome.GotrutThat's what we keep tellin' ourselves, but so far we've come up empty. If we get our air filters workin', you'll never hear from us again. I know I'm askin' a lot, but will you tell the Gree about us? Maybe ask them to show us how to fix things up? Please?Barsen'thorWe'll tell the Gree representatives about your situation.GotrutYou don't know what this means to us. You're savin' innocent lives. Here, this datapad's got stuff about us the Gree will wanna know. Schematics of what we're workin' on, our repair manuals, all that stuff. Just show it to them. It'll explain everything about our situation. |

Hib-R-akInternal transmitters reveal you convey the optimization solution to me. I also scan a crude Ugnaught porcine-biped proposal of collaboration. Curious.Hero of TythonI think you'll find that datapad worth reading.Hib-R-akThe Ugnaught porcine-bipeds submit esteem for my efforts and honor my faculties. This is unforeseen pleasantness.VoidhoundThis is a great opportunity to show your skills as an Administrator unit.Hib-R-akThis unlikely collaboration acknowledges my true aptitude. What a purple tangent, to achieve astounding me this way. With this optimization solution repossessed, Coruscant's waste processors revive. Filth-disease-poison levels recede, plague outbreaks averted. All resolves to purple parallel. |

JaffkeeHey, you- hold up. No, no, don't look at me, just look casual. Act like you're not talking to anyone.My name's Jaffkee. I'm with Republic security. Is the street clear? Any Justicar patrols?VoidhoundAre you always this jumpy?JaffkeeI am when I'm in a place like this! I already tangled with the Justicars. Trust me, you don't want to underestimate these guys. I'm supposed to disrupt the Justicars' signal jammers, so Republic security can run some useful surveillance on these guys.VoidhoundIf you survived, the Justicars can't be that tough.JaffkeeI'm only alive because I ran. Hard.Republic security was actually excited about the Justicars at first. A bunch of ex-military guys forming a militia to take back the streets!MeteorYou can never rely on militias, agent - even ex-military.JaffkeeRepublic security hoped the Justicars would work alongside our officers - bring order to Coruscant's lower levels. But they pushed out Republic forces just like they did the criminals. They keep the peace down here, but they definitely aren't on the Republic's side.MeteorThen whose side are they on? If the Justicars aren't working with the Republic, then who are they working with?JaffkeeNo clue. They pushed out Black Sun and the other criminal groups, but their goals are still a mystery.Hero of TythonYou were sent to find out more about the Justicars, right?JaffkeeUh, not exactly. We've tried to run surveillance on their activities, but their signal jammers block every attempt. I thought disrupting the jammers would be easy, but the Justicar patrols are everywhere.MeteorObjectives don't complete themselves, agent.JaffkeeI just... I really hate to let everyone down like this. They were counting on me. You definitely look like you can handle the job... better than I could, anyway.I built the devices to disrupt the Justicars' jammers. They just need to be installed - can you do that for me?Barsen'thorWe'll take the devices and place them for you.JaffkeeThank you so much! Here, take the devices. They need to be planted at several points around the district. That's the tricky part--Justicar patrols are everywhere. Once you've planted the devices, make your way back. Good luck, and... thanks. |
Dialog transcript |
JaffkeeYou're back! Thank goodness. Did you get all the devices in place?MeteorYes, it's done. The devices are all in place.All right, let's see if these things work. They're booting up now... synchronizing and....It's working! The frequencies are all clearing, one by one! This is fantastic!MeteorWill you be able to conduct your surveillance?JaffkeeWhat? Oh, yes, definitely. The air couldn't be clearer.I'll notify headquarters that the jammers are down. Thanks again for your help - this mission would have been a complete failure without you. |

Renalda AgarethEx- excuse me. You don't look like a Justicar. I hope.... The Justicars say they're protecting us from the Black Sun, that they're better than the gangs - but they're not! I hate them! You're... you're really not one, right? I don't want to get in trouble. Like Braedon did.Hero of TythonWho's Braedon? Are you asking for my help?MeteorWe're not from Coruscant. We're not in any of the gangs.Renalda AgarethPlease, can you help me rescue Braedon? He's my brother. He's only fifteen, but they think he's older. They say they "indentured" him because he broke one of their stupid curfew laws. So they lock him up all day and make him shoot the Black Sun all night. He's going to die They're going to send me offworld! They say Braedon doesn't need any distractions!MeteorDon't worry. We'll get your brother back.Renalda AgarethPop always told us to trust soldiers, but I wasn't sure... after the Justicars.... Thank you.Hero of TythonWho exactly has your brother?Renalda AgarethThey're, I don't know, cops or soldiers or something. But they act like just another gang. Please help me! To get to Braedon, you'll need some special belt they all wear. It's the only way to get past the security field where Braedon is. Please, please bring him back to me! |

Quick, can you, uh, put that back... um, get it working again or something?Hero of TythonYou want to be the Justicars' captive?Braedon AgarethI can't escape. As long as the Justicars have me in their records as a curfew-breaker, they'll just hunt me down again. And if they get me for going AWOL, they'll use torture! Unless....Look, if you really want to help, go into their computers and delete my file. I'll hide out somewhere. When things die down, I'll find Rennie again. |

Barsen'thorYour brother is free. He says he will find you as soon as it's safe.Renalda AgarethR- really? The Justicars were saying he'd been killed. But he's alive? Really? Thank you! Thank you! You're my second-best friend in the whole world! |

Luran GonthorYou look strong, armed for a fight. Maybe I can interest you in restoring some law and order down here.Name's Luran Gonthor, president of Gonthor Industries. Finest custom metalwork on Coruscant. Least we used to be before the Sacking. Once the attack began, I went off the grid, lost my connection to the upper levels. Took elbow grease to stay afloat. Did well until those Justicars arrived. They took over my shop and kicked me into the street!MeteorJusticars give the Republic a bad name.Luran GonthorMaybe you can show 'em how a real patriot fights.The Senate and such won't help; they don't want to face the Justicars. Also, they say they've got no record that it's my shop. Of course those records are long gone, blown away during the Sacking of Coruscant. Only proof I have now is the deed--and that's inside my old shop. If you get it, I can force the Senate to push the Justicars out.Hero of TythonYour company will be back on its feet in no time.Luran GonthorGlad to hear it! You'll always have a friend in Gonthor Industries!Here's my personal security card. It's got an access code that will get you inside my vault. Once you're in, grab the deed and run. |

Reid GandonWelcome to Justicar territory, citizen. Nice to see a friendly face. Agent Reid Gandon, Strategic Information Service. Notice anything odd down here? Like how quickly the Justicars took control?reid_ganden: Weapons and armor don't just materialize out of thin air. The Justicars have a supplier, and it isn't the Republic. You follow?Hero of TythonYou suspect the Justicars of illegal trade?Reid GandonAnd worse. Black market goods are one thing, but trading with the Empire is treason. The Justicars were supposedly formed by Republic citizens. Fear and martial law's not how the Republic operates.MeteorWhere else can the Justicars get what they need?Reid GandonIf not legally from the Republic, there's a few options - the Exchange, separatists, even the Empire. But as ruthless as they've become, the Justicars are keeping the Black Sun at bay. So, Republic security won't move on this without proof.Whoever's got the weapons runs the show. The SIS needs to know where those supplies are coming from. The Justicars control their own shipping dock, and I'm sure they keep records. I just need someone who can handle an ambush to get them.Barsen'thorStorming the docks might make the Justicars suspicious.Reid GandonIf there were another way, I'd be topside and long gone by now.MeteorWe will do it a hard way.Reid GandonGet those records to me as soon as you find them. You don't want to get waylaid by the Justicars. |

PausWhoa, look at you! You're perfect, just perfect! So, my name's Paus, right, and I'm a journalist. The only journalist down here who isn't afraid to dig up the truth! I'm on to something major with these Justicars. I'm gonna blow the lid on all their tyranny and oppression, and show all of Coruscant what they really are!VoidhoundI try not to argue with lunatics. If you say you're onto something, that's great.PausHey, if it's crazy to love freedom and hate totalitarian thugs like the Justicars, then yeah, I'm plenty crazy. I'm working on a major scoop. A clear-cut case of wrongful arrest, illegal imprisonment and unjust execution! Proof I need is just out of reach, though. I need a fearless hero to get that evidence. I need you!MeteorWhy us?PausBecause I can tell! You're brave, you're tough! Everything a hero of freedom and justice should be!Rikael Lysannis. Son of a wealthy family, arrested and executed without trial or explanation. He's the key to everything - the catalyst, the dirty little secret. Nobody's talking about Rikael's death. Not the Justicars, not his family, nobody. So I need the facts, straight from the source: the Justicar tower. And that's where you come in.Barsen'thorOdd. Why do you think the boy's parents won't speak on the matter?PausI'm sure the Justicars got to them - told them they were dead meat if they talked to anybody.Hero of TythonWe'll find out the true circumstances of this poor boy's death, Paus. Perhaps then, justice can be served.PausYeah! And not the Justicars' jack-booted justice, either - the real thing! And we've all got to cover the bills, right? I'll make it worth your while, don't worry.Interrogation droids. They're the key. Justicars use 'em all the time, and they record everything they see. Find the droid that recorded Rikael, smash it and yank the memory core. You can check the core on the Justicar computers, to make sure you've got the right one.MeteorIf innocent people are suffering, then something must be done.PausAll right, then. Soon as you've got the recording I need, bring it back here and we'll show Coruscant the truth about these Justicars! Good luck, buddy, good luck! |
Dialog transcript |
PausI've been hearing some serious comm chatter, pal! Sounds like you made a mess in the Justicar tower! Did you find any recordings of Rikael? Don't keep me in suspense!MeteorRikael's story didn't unfold quite the way you thought it did.PausWell, that doesn't sound too good. Let me see what you've got here. Oh no! Rikael, you snake! No wonder your parents won't talk about you, you little thug! Great. My whole story, shot to pieces. That little jerk was my best lead. Now I've got nothing to go on.VoidhoundEven if this lead didn't work out, you're still right about the Justicars.PausI won't let this keep me down. I'll find the proof. Just got to stick it out a little longer down here, that's all. Anyways, thanks for all your help. Keep fighting the good fight! I'll see you around. |

KasstroffThe Murustavan Ruby. It's even more exquisite than I imagined. This will be the perfect centerpiece for my gift to the Grand Moff.SkavakI'm sure it'll earn you a nice, fat promotion. Maybe the Grand Moff will finally let you go home to Dromund Kaas?KasstroffWatch your tone, Skavak. My agent is standing by at the spaceport, ready to deliver the item. You have someone ready to receive it?SkavakThere's a twitchy little starship merchant named Fabizan in my docking bay. He'll accept my payment.KasstroffLieutenant, transmit the signal. I don't know what you want with that grotesque trophy, Skavak, but it's all yours now.SkavakYou need any other priceless relics, Commander, just let me know.VoidhoundHi there! Sorry I'm late to the party, boys. Traffic was crazy. Where's my ship, Skavak?KasstroffIs it too much to ask that someone guard the entrance to our secret base? Skavak, is this some sort of trick?SkavakCaptain. Seriously, I admire your persistence, but this is ridiculous.VoidhoundHow do you know this man, Skavak?SkavakHe's an acquaintance who just can't take a joke.Corso RiggsYou're gonna be a floor stain when we're done with you, Skavak.SkavakCorso, heard about your job. Don't let unemployment make you bitter, all right?You the one who fouled up my identity record and sent half the galaxy chasing me? That wasn't very nice, Captain.VoidhoundWhat are friends for? It's the least I could do for you, old pal.SkavakYou know, holding on to anger like that will give you health problems. I understand you're upset. It's a very nice ship. But you're taking things way too far.Honestly, did you have to frame me as a Sith spy? A pirate would've been so much more romantic. Or was it necessary to tell every woman in the civilized galaxy I have Bothan Nether Rot? That's just low. Framing me with the crime syndicates wasn't very nice. You know how hard it is to get out of trouble with them? Oh, wait - that's right, you do. I hear Rogun the Butcher just raised the price on your head. Congratulations.KasstroffEnough of this. The captain is your problem, Skavak. Deal with it.SkavakCommander, would you mind vaporizing the captain for me? I've got places to be....KasstroffSkavak! Blast that scoundrel. Always leaving me to clean up his messes.... Troops, dispose of this garbage.Miel MuwnAttention, Imperial lawbreakers! You are in violation of Statute 1983 of the Sullustan Criminal Code. Drop your weapons and surrender the gem!KasstroffWho do you think you are giving me orders? You're as good as dead, you alien filth.VoidhoundBoy am I happy to see you.Miel MuwnImperials, you are guilty of smuggling and crimes too numerous to mention. Do not make things harder on yourselves by resisting arrest! I have already disabled your comlinks and cut you off from any reinforcements! Drop your weapons now!KasstroffSpare me your false heroics. Men, kill this alien scum! |
Dialog transcript |
Miel MuwnI... I do not think I will be filing any more reports....VoidhoundHang on, Miel. We'll get you to a kolto tank.Miel MuwnIt is too late for that.VoidhoundYou should've stayed away. Why didn't you let me handle those Imperials myself?Miel MuwnIt was my duty as a member of the Sullustan Constable Brigade to apprehend the lawbreakers. I am unable to maintain pursuit of Skavak. You must go on without me. I have something that will help you. Find Skavak. Bring him to justice... for me....Corso RiggsPoor little guy. He didn't deserve to go out like this. |
Dialog transcript |
FabizanExcuse me, but in case it wasn't obvious by the locked door you sliced through, this is a private docking bay.VoidhoundThree words, pal. Where's... my... ship?FabizanI don't know you, and I sure don't have your ship.VoidhoundWhat are you doing here?FabizanMe? I'm just a humble merchant waiting for his buyer, and that ain't you. Skavak said there might be a troublemaker or two dropping by. He paid extra for security to take care of it. Boys, like the man says, the customer's always right. You know what to do. |
Dialog transcript |
FabizanAll right, all right! I get it - you're tough! Don't hurt me. I'm not armed. I'm just a starship salesman!VoidhoundFor the last time... where's my starship?FabizanThat mean machine Skavak brought to Coruscant? I've been taking really good care of it. I'm just trying to earn a living. It was none of my business where Skavak got that ship, so I never asked.VoidhoundWhy would Skavak need to buy a starship after he stole mine?FabizanHe's shopping for upgrades. Nobody in their right mind would replace that sweet ride of yours. Listen, your ship's in great shape. All the cargo is still on board. Even had it detailed. No harm done, right?Corso RiggsNot yet - but you owe the captain something for all the trouble.FabizanI could give you a nice ship upgrade and charge it to Skavak's account. Interested?VoidhoundAs long as Skavak's paying, I'm buying.FabizanI carry the finest starship upgrades. You won't find a better deal on Coruscant, or my name's not Fabizan. It's nice to have friends with money, isn't it?You're gonna let Fabizan scoot along now, right? I've got other business far, far away from here.VoidhoundThen get to it.VoidhoundMay this ship bring you many fine years of service. If you encounter any problems, please contact the manufacturer. I'm out of here. Thanks for not killing me! |

C2-N2 (Voidhound)My new master, at last. I am Seetoo Enntoo, steward of this vessel. It is my extreme good fortune to serve you.VoidhoundYou were bought by a thieving, gutless son of a kath hound - but this is my ship. You take orders from me, got it?C2-N2 (Voidhound)I am programmed to serve this vessel's captain, not my purchaser. I will happily accept your every command. C2-series droids represent the latest advances in everything from starship technical maintenance to nutritional advice tailored for your specific organic needs. Welcome aboard your Corellian XS Light Freighter: a marvel of customization. I can only speculate why such large engines were mounted to its hull. Along with the usual accommodations, you'll find a secure captain's locker for storing valuables. Your bridge contains an ever-updating map of the galaxy. It's quite beautiful to look at. Priority alerts from the Republic network are accessible at the HoloNet console. Long-range communications are available via the holoterminal. And finally, the ship's intercom will inform your crew that you wish to meet. Do you have any questions, master?VoidhoundNope - thanks for the review. It's been too long since I was aboard. I'd almost forgotten all that stuff.C2-N2 (Voidhound)My duty is to ensure you need never concern yourself with such matters, master. Which brings up one final point... As you can see, I am not equipped for physical danger. My function is to maintain this starship as your home away from home. I am happy to assist you with any non-hazardous task, of course. I pride myself on the utmost attention to detail.VoidhoundWhat do you consider a "non-hazardous" task?C2-N2 (Voidhound)I am programmed to modify other technology. I can also perform long-range surveillance and diplomacy. I'm quite useful, I assure you.VoidhoundHmm... add a little armor, some combat protocols and a blaster, and you just might be worth something.C2-N2 (Voidhound)Master, please... Any non-factory modification will void my warranty. Whenever you are ready to depart, consult the galaxy map on the bridge. The ship's computers will handle the rest. Oh... and you may wish to investigate the cargo compartment. The items within it arrived before I did. |

Risha DrayenI'm taking a wild guess that my life just got a new kind of complicated.VoidhoundThis freighter and everything in it belongs to me, lady.Risha DrayenThat so? What an exciting development. My name's Risha. I've been traveling with Skavak as part of a business arrangement.Corso RiggsWhat kinda business are you in, that you keep a guy's head in a jar?Risha DrayenDon't judge me by my cargo. A girl can't always choose how she earns a living, or who she deals with. He and I had a deal to deliver the things you see here.VoidhoundYou picked a bad partner. Skavak isn't known for honoring his deals.Risha DrayenThen maybe my luck is about to change. Skavak was going to deliver this cargo, but he's proving unreliable. I think you might be a much better partner.VoidhoundLady, I barely know you. Why would I agree to any deal?Risha DrayenBecause I'm willing to earn your trust. The real question is, will you give me the chance to make you rich? What do you know... that's Skavak on the ship's holo. This should be an interesting conversation. |
Dialog transcript |
Risha DrayenYou're late, Skavak - and I just made a new friend. I think you two will loathe each other.SkavakCongratulations, Captain. You're officially number one on my list of people to kill. When I get my hands on you, you'll wish you'd never left Ord Mantell.Corso RiggsHope there's room for me on that list. I hate feeling left out.SkavakDon't sweat it, Corso. I promise to kill you second.VoidhoundCan't kill what you can't catch, Skavak. And you don't have a ship.SkavakPlenty of ships to steal on Coruscant. I'm sure I'll find something fast and deadly. You don't even know what you've stumbled into, Captain. You're messing up a deal I spent months putting together. Don't know how you got away from those Imperials, but next time I'll kill you myself. Assuming Rogun the Butcher doesn't get you first. I sold all those blasters you were supposed to deliver for him on Ord Mantell. Can't imagine he'll be happy you lost them.VoidhoundI'll make sure Rogun hears who really fouled things up for him.SkavakI'm sure you'll have lots to say while Rogun tortures you to death.Risha DrayenAre you done posturing, Skavak? The captain and I have cargo to deliver.SkavakDon't even think about cutting me out of this deal, Risha!Risha Drayen"Finders keepers." Isn't that what you always say? Not my fault the captain here beat you to the big prize.Risha DrayenSweetheart, you two just made the biggest mistake of your lives. |

Risha DrayenThought that blowhard would never switch off. So, we were discussing how I can make you fabulously wealthy. The items here are pieces to a key - a key that unlocks the lost treasure of a very rich dead man named Nok Drayen.VoidhoundWho's Nok Drayen?Risha DrayenPlease tell me you're joking. The man was a criminal legend. Nok Drayen was the greatest gangster who ever lived. He personally wiped out the Rath Cartel and the Vandelhelm Combine during the Syndicate Wars. When he died ten years ago, Nok had more wealth than some Outer Rim worlds. Even the Hutts were jealous.VoidhoundNok sounds like my kind of guy.Risha DrayenHe was ruthless, bloodthirsty and vindictive. The only criminals who didn't fear him were the dead ones.VoidhoundWhat happened to Nok's fortune after he died?Risha DrayenNow we're getting to the interesting part. Nok hid his fortune right before he died. For ten years, treasure hunters across the galaxy have searched for it in vain - until now. You see, I've finally figured out how to get the lost riches of Nok Drayen.VoidhoundBut you can't do it alone.Risha DrayenWorking with a professional would be refreshing. Whoever gets Nok's riches will become an underworld legend. Skavak had his chance and blew it. Now it's your turn. Help me deliver these things in your cargo hold, and Nok Drayen's wealth will be all yours.VoidhoundWhat are you getting out of this?Risha DrayenI'm after something personal. The money doesn't mean anything to me, Captain. I'm the only one who can help you trade these items to get Nok Drayen's treasure, but I won't tell you everything up front. To get the riches, you trust me the same way I trust you: one step at a time. Deal?VoidhoundWe'll see if this treasure hunt of yours is worth it.Risha DrayenOnce you get a taste of this job, I think you'll be hooked. We have deals set up on Taris and Nar Shaddaa. I'll make all the arrangements and introductions for you on both planets. I'll be in my bunk. That caged beast there isn't much good for conversation, so come visit if you feel like chatting. Looking forward to working with you, Captain. |

In-iKThe black bisector comes! Pleasing, as it is needed. I am In-iK, science unit. Please "talk up" if your comprehension white-shifts. I will use simple-happy language-words to help you understand.Barsen'thorWe do... appreciate anything you can do.In-iKIndubitably!VoidhoundWhat's with your language, anyway? I can barely understand you.In-iKThe Gree language-form is dissimilar to Basic language-form. Because Gree senses are unique red bisectors! Five Gree senses analyze forms. Three Gree senses soak color. So goes language. Other species miscommunicate our language-words.Coruscant power comes from the Works. Darkness comes from the Works. Coruscant-Senators, traders are blind. The power-darkness must stop.MeteorThe Works are where Coruscant's power is generated?In-iKThe Works is very low on Coruscant. There, Gree spawning generators breed electrons for machine-consumption. But enemy droid-machines intersect the power conduits and yellow-shift their functionality. Enemy droid-machines must stop, and conduits must be fixed.Hero of TythonWhy are the enemy droid-machines disrupting the power conduits?In-iKAll droids in the Works were damaged when the Empire attacked. Now they are corrupt. I monitor the power conduits, and know where to implement purple-shifting. As black bisector, you can "take out" many, many droid-machines. With information planted inside you, and our tool-sphere repair-mother in your many fingers, you can perform the fixing function! It is efficacious?VoidhoundSounds efficacious to me.In-iKExcellent-red tangents envelop us! You will do well, black bisector. |
Dialog transcript |
In-iKThe power-darkness is obsolete! The conduits are fully functional, and I have witnessed through our monitors. Also, you destroyed many enemy droid-machines, so well done!MeteorFinally finished.In-iKPlease remember Gree technology is exclusive to the enclave. Do not attempt to duplicate, or you will be absorbed into the gray pentachoron.Barsen'thorNo more blackouts?In-iKNow. Not eternally. In one millennium, if our interests intersect, we will ask for help again. |

Fez BurbaGreetings, humble citizens. I am Fez Burba, scientist-notary of the Republic and planetary consult to the Galactic Senate. My current project could alter history. If my theory proves correct, I will be the most famous scientist who ever lived. Consider this - we all know the Imperial bombardment of Coruscant wreaked havoc on the infrastructure. But what if it also damaged the planet's very core?MeteorWould there be a way to repair the damage?Perhaps, depending on the extent of it... but most likely, the planet would have to be evacuated.Hero of TythonGo on.Fez BurbaDamage to the core could cause geothermal instability, plate fragmentation - in short, level the whole city.VoidhoundThat's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.Fez BurbaI assure you, it's not impossible. The bombardment of Lexus Nine created a rift beneath the surface that caused unprecedented cataclysms. Everyone died.It is crucial that I get seismic readings from the lower levels. Specifically, from the Works sector. In the spirit of scientific inquiry and on behalf of the safety of the Republic, I need you to perform this critical mission. Prove my theory correct, and the Senate will grant me a substantial endowment for further research. I will give you a generous reward as compensation.Barsen'thorIf your theory's incorrect - what happens then?Fez BurbaI will still pay, of course, but your compensation will be significantly less. Budgetary constraints, you know. All that's required is that you take the Burba Seismic Activity Reader - my invention, of course - and use it in the Works. The reader is both accurate and user-friendly. The challenge will be in the journey, not in the science. |
Dialog transcript |
Fez BurbaWelcome back, my illustrious colleague. Tell me you've taken the seismic readings?MeteorWe managed the job.Fez BurbaFantastic. I tell you, we are going to make history together. Quickly. Please, let me examine the Burba Seismic Activity Reader....What? It can't be. This indicates there is no unusual seismic activity at all!VoidhoundIt seems your theory proved to be incorrect.Hero of TythonThis means the planet won't be destroyed, right?Fez BurbaYes... I mean, of course. I'm just surprised. It's atypical for one of my theories to be wrong. I just can't believe it. I haven't been wrong in so long.... This could reflect very poorly on my reputation. I suggest you take your compensation and keep quiet - I believe the reward is generous, given the outcome. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have much to consider. Farewell. |

OzuristHail to the glory of the apparatus! Welcome to the hallowed walkways of the great Works! I am Ozurist, the chief engineer. I serve the great machines, the true rulers of Coruscant.Barsen'thorIt's a pleasure to meet you, Ozurist.OzuristIt's always good to see another humble biological down here.MeteorYou're the engineer. Don't the machines serve you?OzuristNo. I am small. I am weak and organic. My lifespan is but a blip on the machines' sensors. These machines are the vital organs of the planet. Biologicals are merely parasites, totally dependent on the infinite energy of the great ones. But discord emerges among the exalted masters. The stationaries grant sustenance to the biologicals, but the mobiles long to destroy our kind.Barsen'thorEngines and droids don't want anything. They can't think.OzuristBiologicals ignore the reality. They will learn.MeteorWhat are "stationaries" and "mobiles"?OzuristThe stationaries are industrial behemoths. Creators. The mobiles - some call them "droids" - are workers. Understand this: One of the stationaries, Thermodraft, is in great pain. He is melting down, but the mobiles will not let me help him. When he dies, thousands of biologicals above will die with him. His energy will be unleashed.MeteorAre you talking about some sort of explosion? Radiation leak...?OzuristBoth. Thermodraft dies an angry death.Hero of TythonWill you do something?OzuristI could fix Thermodraft if I could get past the mobiles, but they're too powerful and they would kill me. You are only a mere biological, but perhaps you could help save Thermodraft. You'd have to release the control valves on his steel skeleton. Do this, and matters could be set right.MeteorLet's call this, "Operation Machine Rescue."OzuristThat seems fitting. Thermodraft lives farther down into the Works. You'll see him. He is astounding to behold. |
Dialog transcript |
OzuristI have been awaiting your return, biological. I feared for the fate of my lord. I heard his cries grow silent. Tell me that means you saved him - tell me the great Thermodraft lives on.Hero of TythonWe saved him.OzuristPraise the Maker. I don't know what I would have done if Thermodraft died. The machines have given me many amazing gifts. Take this one. May it serve you as you have served Thermodraft.Barsen'thorWe appreciate it.Hero of TythonI'm just glad the big guy's gonna be okay.OzuristI am, too. Did I tell you that Thermodraft is one of the originals? He is a legend. I must return to my duties now. The great machines need me, and I am proud to serve. Glory to you, biological, and glory to the great machines! |

BelkanThey... they're going to get it... please... you've got to stop them....MeteorWhat happened?BelkanWe were on a mission... on our way to the Jedi Temple.... We were ambushed... Imperial scum... you can't let them get it!MeteorGo on.BelkanWe were sent to get... astrogation charts.... top secret... general said... the charts are critical.... The Imperials know about them... a traitor... one of our own... sold us out.... they can't get those charts!Hero of TythonWere there any Sith with the Imperials?BelkanMaybe... I couldn't see... there were too many of them....MeteorWhere are those charts, soldier?BelkanThe old Jedi Temple... top level... in a sealed case, in the Council chambers... that's where the charts are....MeteorThen that's where we'll be going.BelkanThe charts... must take them to... General Wendin... Senate tower.... Do it... for the... Republic! |
Dialog transcript |
WendinLieutenant, get me Republic High Command! Captain, I want six squads prepped for a high-speed shuttle assault! Somebody get these blasted gawkers out of my way!VoidhoundGuess you don't want this old astrogation computer, huh?WendinWhat? What did you just say? Let me see that thing.... Well, I'll be hung with the Chancellor's shorts. You've got the astrogation computer from the Jedi Temple ruins! I was mobilizing half the Republic army to go after it. The squad's holocam recorded those scragging Imperials ambushing my men. They killed them all!MeteorYour squad fell in battle, but their mission was a success. We spoke with one of your men before he died.WendinKnowing them, his last thoughts were on the mission. They were good soldiers. They'll receive the highest honors for their sacrifice. You honored my squad by getting that device here and made me as happy as a bantha on the beach. Do you have any idea what that device is? What it can do?MeteorIt's an astrogation computer.That's the understatement of the decade. The computer contains secret hyperspace routes the Jedi shared with the Republic military decades ago. The Empire gets their hands on those hyperspace routes, and they could ambush every ship in our fleet.Hero of TythonYes, but the Empire failed. The Force was with us, General.WendinBeen a while since I heard those words. I've missed them.Barsen'thorThe Empire is not destined to win this war.Wendin I'll let you trust in destiny, Jedi. Personally, I prefer power armor and a good auto-cannon.VoidhoundThose hyperspace routes could come in handy for me.If you're looking for shortcuts through the Rimma trade lane, you'll be disappointed. These are military patrol routes, and they need to stay secret.MeteorYou can always count on Havoc Squad, General.WendinYou're the new leader of Havoc Squad? Blasted good to meet you, soldier!WendinYour efforts kept the Republic safe from the Empire - for that, you deserve more'n a clap on the shoulder. Haven't got a medal, so I guess credits will have to do. I can't make you rich, but I can do something.Hero of TythonKeep your reward. We did this for the Republic.WendinThen let the Republic do something for you in return. Go on, take the credits. I insist. |

Memnon DemartusThanks for the rescue. Come on, boys. This job's a bust. Didn't think anyone else was fool enough to wander this pile of rubble. Stupid move, trusting some prig Senator. Jedi Temple's abandoned, he says. No one to fight, only trouble's getting there. What do we find? Battle droids, Imperial commandos, Sith... we're lucky all they did was take our haul and lock us in here to die.Barsen'thorMany Jedi died here. Selling their belongings is disrespectful.Memnon DemartusNone of them tried to stop me. This stuff should go to someone who can use it.MeteorServes you right for stealing from the dead.Memnon DemartusI'm no grave robber. The Senator's got a rightful claim.MeteorDo you know what the Imperials are trying to do?Memnon DemartusBesides attack mercs on a legit job? No idea.Memnon DemartusSenator Starsnow's after a journal that belonged to his dead kid. Some bigwig Jedi, fell during the Sacking. Journal's all that's left of him. I feel for the Senator, and his credits, but those commandos have the journal now. They aren't going to spare us twice.Hero of TythonWe'll take on the commandos. The Senator should have his son's journal.Memnon DemartusWhatever you say, Master Jedi. But the kid's dead - that journal's not going to bring him back. We came in armed to the teeth. You think you can do better, be my guest. Senator Starsnow's waiting near the Senate tower. If you can get that journal back, he'll be expecting you. |
Dialog transcript |
Senator StarsnowWhatever it is, take it up with your local representative. I'm waiting for a very important delivery.Hero of TythonYour son's journal, Senator. There were Imperials in the temple, and your mercs were overwhelmed.Senator StarsnowImperials? In the Jedi Temple? No wonder the mercenaries never returned. The Empire couldn't be after family heirlooms. I must inform the Senate of this. Thank you, Master Jedi. It must have been difficult to enter those ruins, but you've eased a father's pain. This journal is all I have left of my boy. Thank you for finding it. |

JudinMove along, citizen- oh, sorry, Captain. Flight Commander Judin, pleased to meet you. Afraid there's bad news from open space. The Imperial armada's attacking Republic assets in secret, goading us into violating the Treaty of Coruscant.VoidhoundJust like those Imps to avoid an open fight.JudinFleet Admiral Numinn has authorized the formation of the Coruscant Aegis--an elite attack squadron meant to break the Imperial offensive, swiftly and quietly. If you're interested, I'd say you're more than qualified to join the squadron.VoidhoundI want to be called "Crackerjack." Eh, that sounded better in my head. How about "Ace"?JudinWise choice, Captain. As for your call sign... I think "Ace" suits your nature. Every member of the Coruscant Aegis will strike independently across the galaxy. I'll upload your mission data to your ship. Silence the Imperial threat, and guard the Republic well. |

BardoHold a moment, please. Strom?StromScanning... ID confirmed. It's them.BardoGood to meet you, Lieutenant, Masters Jedi, Captain. We've got some... security concerns with the reconstruction project, and Governor Saresh hopes you and your teams can help.VoidhoundYou know, the military isn't the only place to find skilled, enterprising individuals....BardoThe governor is... aware of your reputation as well, Captain. She would actually welcome your assistance, if you're available. The governor is prepared to be very generous.Hero of TythonIf there's anything we can do to help protect your people, we'll do it.Barsen'thorBut you wouldn't need a Jedi's assistance for a simple security matter.StromYeah, I think you could say that. I wouldn't call this one "simple."MeteorIs Governor Saresh the official in charge here?StromYep. "Duly appointed Senatorial Supervisory Governor for Planetary Affairs," if you're feeling long-winded.BardoTaris is substantially more... hazardous than initial reports had suggested. The specifics aren't common knowledge offworld, but....Strom ...But we're trying to rebuild a planet covered with toxic junk and diseased, carnivorous monsters, and it ain't working.BardoAhem. Governor Saresh has plans to alleviate some of these issues, but they require highly skilled individuals to carry out. Individuals like you.VoidhoundHow does the governor plan on dealing with this, exactly?StromShe'll be happy to discuss the details with you in person. I'll let her know you'll be stopping by.StromJust hear her out - you can make a huge difference here.BardoThank you for your time! |

TrigI'm sure it would work if we had the manpower, but we don't. The numbers just aren't on our side.Leontyne SareshSuccess isn't in the numbers, Chief. We don't need more people - we need the right people.Hero of TythonSorry to interrupt. Excuse me, but we were told to meet with Governor Saresh?Leontyne SareshBardo and Strom found you after all, good. Thank you for coming - I'm Governor Saresh. Our goal on Taris is straightforward: rebuild everything the Sith destroyed, and remind the galaxy that the Republic never gives up. But resources are tight, and we have some serious challenges: toxic chemical spills, scavenging pirates and... the wildlife.TrigRakghouls. You've fought your share, I'm sure.Barsen'thorWhere do these creatures come from? How did they get here?TrigNo one's totally sure. They were here before the Sith bombardment, and their numbers have only grown since then.Leontyne SareshThe rakghouls use tunnels buried in the ruins to attack by surprise and overwhelm our soldiers. Every work crew we send out is decimated. We came here to achieve the greatest reconstruction project in Republic history. Instead, the workers hide in this outpost like frightened children. No more.MeteorWith respect, it sounds like your men have good reasons to be afraid.Leontyne SareshYou're right, of course. We have scientists working on locating the rakghouls' lairs. Until they do, we have to settle for the next best thing. Chief Trig has a plan....Trig ...A suicidal plan....Leontyne Saresh ...A bold plan to collapse the tunnels the rakghouls are using to ambush our people. I know you're up for the task.TrigOld ventilation shafts still connect a few hubs in the tunnel network to the surface. Drop explosives in enough of them, and the whole thing collapses.VoidhoundDon't you have soldiers here who could handle the job?Leontyne SareshLarge groups of soldiers attract too many rakghouls, just like the work crews. We need to keep this small.Barsen'thorHopefully, this will seal the rakghouls' warrens as well as their escape routes.TrigLet's hope we're so lucky.Leontyne SareshYou each have a reputation for handling extraordinary situations. Live up to that reputation. Help us transform Taris into the future of the Republic. |

Hull ...I don't care what your plan is! We're not sticking around to get eaten alive. Me and my crew are leaving - period.Leontyne SareshIf you want to abandon the work you agreed to do for the Republic, I can't stop you. But you aren't leaving. A six-month quarantine requirement has been put into effect. Anyone trying to leave without prior authorization is subject. You can sit in a medical bay and go broke, or you can help us accomplish something unprecedented. It's your choice.VoidhoundYou shouldn't be so harsh, Governor. These men aren't fighters.Leontyne SareshWe are what we choose to be.HullThis is insane! We're construction workers, we didn't sign up for this!Leontyne SareshI know you're going to make the right decision here, Hull. Come back when you do.Scouting parties are already reporting lower rakghoul populations. Most of our work crews are gearing up - we're finally gonna get this project moving.MeteorIs there something more we could do to help, Governor?Leontyne SareshNot at the moment - but I'm sure there will be. I'll have Bardo and Strom find you if anything comes up.My ancestors called Taris home, once. Thanks to you, millions of people might call it home again someday. Stay safe. And stay in touch. |

From "Gun Philosophy"Corso RiggsSo, how'd you end up out here, Captain? Was there ever a time you wanted something more... normal? A family? A steady job somewhere you didn't need a blaster in-hand?VoidhoundAre you happy here, or would you rather be back raising rontos?Corso RiggsI've just been thinking about a guy I met on Clak'dor Seven, when I was in the brigade. Mercenary. He'd been fighting for the Republic for twenty years. I was sixteen, fresh off the ship. This guy gave me my first blaster.VoidhoundI thought you country boys grow up shooting.Corso RiggsI mean, sure, I'd handled a hunting rifle, but never anything aimed at people. This guy told me, "Gun's just a tool. You use it to destroy, or you use it to protect against those who would destroy you." So it's not exactly astrophysics, but it made sense to me. You can't protect anything if you're afraid to be out there shooting.VoidhoundAnd you took it to heart.Corso RiggsMade me think different about guns. You can't protect the people you love if you're afraid to get your hands dirty. I brought Torchy home, and my parents made me lock her up. Told me not to "wish away peace." I didn't have her when the separatists came. |
Dialog transcript |
From "Happier Times"Corso RiggsCaptain, life with you is almost enough to get me missing the good old days. Ah, for Ord Mantell. Where separatists were bad and guns were good, and we could just run in shooting.VoidhoundAre you drunk?Corso RiggsJust tipsy. I could still bullseye an Imperial soldier at a thousand paces. Back home, when we needed a laugh, we used to run the rontos in circles, then see if they could charge us without falling over.VoidhoundGood night, Corso...Corso RiggsMaybe I should go lie down... |

SogantiI'm Agent Soganti with the Republic Customs Office. What brings you to my planet, Captain?VoidhoundYour planet? Last time I checked, Taris was Republic territory.SogantiWhen you have as many responsibilities as I do, you develop a sense of ownership about a planet. Stow the attitude unless you want me to impound that ship of yours. The Republic Customs Office monitors all starship traffic and ensures no illegal goods are transported on or off this planet. There's a lot of contraband making its way around Taris. If you see anything suspicious, I suggest you report it immediately.VoidhoundWhy so much illegal activity around here?SogantiLots of nice things are still buried in the ruins of old Taris. This planet is one big party for grave robbers and scavengers.VoidhoundHow will I know "suspicious"?SogantiThat's right, you have "solid citizen" written all over you. I take a special interest in every new arrival to my planet, Captain. Keep your nose clean, and we won't have any trouble. Clear?VoidhoundDo you give this speech to everyone?SogantiJust the ones I think need to hear it. Enjoy your visit to Taris. |

Beryl ThorneArgo, you're leaking oil again. You wanna set this whole warehouse on fire?Argo (AR-G0)The Maker said it is better to burn out than rust away. Perhaps I'm testing that wisdom, Mistress.VoidhoundI'm looking for Beryl Thorne.That's me. Argo's what passes for my second-in-command. I recognize you from Risha's holo. Let's get one thing straight. The only reason I agreed to help is because my contract supplying the Taris reclamation project is at risk. Looked like easy credits. Turns out, Taris is anything but easy, and there are lots of interesting ways to die.VoidhoundAs long as you're breathing, you're still in business.Beryl ThorneSome business. I'm barely covering my own expenses. If I don't finish my contract, I don't get paid. Tyrodall - my partner - died on a supply run. Put me in a real bind. I'll find that vault, but I have to finish my contract to do it. You work for me and I'll work for you. Deal?VoidhoundI wasn't aware this was a negotiation.Beryl ThorneYou can always wander around and hope you bump into the vault by accident. I only have two deliveries left. Soon as you handle them, we'll find your vault. The first job's for a Republic scientist named Vernan. He's got a research camp in rakghoul territory.VoidhoundWhat exactly am I delivering?Beryl ThorneSome kind of sensor equipment. Don't know what it's for.VoidhoundWhat else do you need me to deliver?Beryl ThorneExcavation supplies, but I'm still tracking those down. I'll call your holo when I find them. I'll start working on your job while you handle mine. Isn't cooperation grand? |
Dialog transcript |
SogantiHello again, Captain. I didn't know you and Thorne were acquainted.Beryl ThorneAgent Soganti, what a lovely surprise. It's only been a day since your last inquisition- I mean, inspection. Don't you Republic Customs boys have better things to do than turn my warehouse upside-down again?SogantiI can inspect this warehouse whenever I want. It's the law.Beryl ThorneTake Doctor Vernan's delivery, Captain. There's no reason for you to stick around.VoidhoundWhy is Republic Customs so interested in you?Beryl ThorneJust between you and me, Soganti's a very lonely man. Poke around the warehouse all you want, agent. You won't find anything out of order.SogantiEhhh... what did I just step in, Thorne?Argo (AR-G0)My apologies, sir. I believe that is my hydraulic fluid... |

Vernan"Dear Adali, I regret that your husband was killed yesterday by rakghouls. Please accept my condolences. Doctor Soylon was an excellent scientist."I've never composed a death notice before. How did that sound? I need an honest opinion, and all my colleagues are deceased.VoidhoundYou might try softening the blow a little.VernanReally? Adali always impressed me as something of a stoic. Then again, she is a widow now. Hmm....VoidhoundI'm just delivering supplies.VernanAh! I recognize the symbols on that container! My bio-alarms have finally arrived. Good, good. If only this had arrived in time to save my associates. Not your fault, certainly. We knew the risk of studying rakghouls.VoidhoundHow did you manage to survive by yourself?VernanI do seem to have beaten the odds. Perhaps there's something about me these creatures don't like. The pursuit of knowledge is never without risk. And the greater the risk, the greater the enlightenment. My colleagues and I were studying the rakghouls' behavior hoping to find a means of containing them. We can't afford to let the rakghouls impede our progress. The Republic's rebuilding efforts on Taris are paramount to future prosperity. This was a wonderful planet before the Sith destroyed it. The Republic must rebuild and show that Sith aggression will not stand.VoidhoundYou're pretty fearless, for a scientist.VernanFear obstructs understanding. Besides, my prospects for survival have just improved.I've isolated an identifying element in the rakghouls' physiology, making it possible to detect and track their movements. The bio-alarms you brought will reveal how the creatures hunt - however, installing them will be a challenge with all my assistants dead.Corso Riggs"Big-brain" here wouldn't last ten meters outside this camp. Besides, we can always use credits.VoidhoundIf you've got the credits, doc, we've got the time.VernanThanks to the rakghouls, I have a budget surplus for staff expenses. You're hired!VoidhoundConsider them installed, doc. How hard can it be?VernanIndeed! All that's required are quick feet, basic technical know-how and raw nerve--things I see you possess in abundance. Place a bio-alarm at each survey station we've established, and I'll see you're amply rewarded. Come back when you're done, and we'll celebrate your success. Normally I'd ask for your next of kin's holofrequency, but I'd rather maintain some optimism. Good luck! |
Dialog transcript |
VernanSplendid work! I'm already receiving data transmissions from the bio-alarms. You've done the Republic's rebuilding effort a tremendous favor.VoidhoundIt wasn't a favor, remember?VernanOh, come now. Take a moment and give yourself a pat on the back before you dash off with your money. What you've done most definitely calls for generous compensation. Good show! Accept these credits with my extreme gratitude.VoidhoundIt seems dangerous to stay out here all alone.VernanI'm one hundred percent safer now with the bio-alarms in place. I'll be fine. Soon, we'll know how to contain the rakghouls. From there, eradication of these beasts will quickly follow. I'll begin collating my data. Thank you again for everything. |

Beryl ThorneHey, Captain. How are things out there?VoidhoundBeautiful scenery, great weather, man-eating creatures trying to kill me. You should be here.Beryl ThorneThat's the problem with running your own business. You always miss the good times.VoidhoundThat crazy Republic scientist got his gear.Beryl ThorneGlad to hear it. That's one down, one to go. I finally located the other supplies you need to deliver. They were lost when Tyrodall got killed by the rakghouls. A Republic patrol found the supplies with Tyrodall's remains. Dropped everything off at an outpost near the lake. I suspect they're a little busy hunting down the pirates and scavengers attacking the supply routes.VoidhoundI guess the rakghouls didn't leave much of him behind.Beryl ThorneJust bloody clothes. The rakghouls turned Tyrodall into one of them. I try not to think about it. All you have to do is swing by the outpost, grab the supplies and take them to an engineer named Ovold. Ovold will give you some planetary core samples to bring back to me. Got it?VoidhoundWhat do you need with planetary core samples?Beryl ThorneI have to transport them to Coruscant as part of my contract. It's a science thing.VoidhoundA simple job.Beryl ThorneYeah, that's what Tyrodall said. Grab the supplies from the outpost, get them to Ovold and return to me with his core samples. Good luck. |

G-5KNAlert // Distress signal = intercepted // Urgent intervention = requiredAMILLE RAZNATo anyone receiving: this is Amille Razna, Republic Security team seven. We've been captured by the man we came to arrest: the Locust. This scumbag is a scavenger on a massive scale - his droids have scoured entire planets down to the crust. And Taris is next! We need armed assistance at these coordinates immediately. The Locust's ship must be disabled before he escapes and gathers his droids for full-scale operations. Please - hurry!G-5KNCoordinates = downloaded // You = hero // For the Republic! |
Dialog transcript |
Amille RaznaYou aren't guards! I wasn't even sure my message got out... this is perfect. We have to finish the mission. We have to capture the Locust - alive. We came here to capture the Locust - probably the galaxy's biggest scavenger. He uses a legion of droids to strip whole planets clean. Stopping the scumbag is important, but the real goal is to get control of those droids. "Advanced" doesn't even start to describe them. The Republic could repurpose those droids for something productive - maybe even use them to help here on Taris. But only if we can convince the Locust to hand over control.MeteorWhat do you have in mind?Amille RaznaWe'll make sure he's not in a position to refuse.VoidhoundSounds like wishful thinking.Amille RaznaThe Locust isn't a fool. Back him into a small enough corner, he'll cut a deal. Then everyone wins. Judging by the explosions, you've made sure the Locust won't be leaving us - all we have to do now is find him.Blast! All right, new plan: we make a diversion, you go for the Locust. He won't go down easy, but if anyone can take him, it's you.Hey! We're over here, you junk-eating sons of slugs! |
Dialog transcript |
Amille RaznaYou got him! Great work!The LocustNo. I do not die here. Not like this!Hero of TythonWe don't kill prisoners. Even a criminal like you deserves the chance to make amends. Drop the hostility and listen.Amille RaznaWe're here to arrest, not to execute. And if you're willing to cooperate, we can offer a lot more than just a jail cell. The Republic wants to put your droids to work developing new settlements, instead of tearing them down. Make it happen, and you'll get full profit sharing and a reduced sentence.The LocustThis "offer" is gilded chains. I am the Locust.VoidhoundYou could become a powerful and respected ally of the Republic, instead of a hated pirate.Amille RaznaBesides, we can protect you from the relatives of the people you enslaved.MeteorYou're a Republic prisoner, and we're making you a very reasonable offer. Do you understand?The LocustHa. Good to see honest dealings at last. Fine. Shall be your "ally." But to get my men under control... much time. Fighting may take long to stop.Hmm. Of all opponents, you fought hardest. I fail, but I remain strong.VoidhoundKeep saying that if it helps.Hero of TythonYou'd better keep your word.Amille RaznaTaris saved. A galaxy-wide threat ended for good. None of it would have been possible without you. I'll make sure the bounty on the Locust gets sent your way - plus a little extra from me and my team. We owe you our lives. Now, it's time we escorted our new "ally" back to civilization. Thanks again - take care. |

Relus PohWe've been waiting weeks! And those things are still swarming our property while you sorry excuses for defenders of the Republic sun yourself on the base.SakalThis is a military operation, sir. This planet hasn't been cleared for civilian occupancy.Jaymizu PohMy brother didn't mean to be insulting. But for three centuries, our family has dreamt of reclaiming our place on Taris. And now to be stopped by those things....Hero of TythonI couldn't help overhearing....SakalTheir old estate's off base, so we got no way to secure it.Relus PohTaris is our home. We're not going to wait until the army takes its pick of the planet and then throws us the scraps!SakalI got orders I got to follow. No civilian claims 'til the place is secure.MeteorTaris is a dangerous place. What are you doing here?Jaymizu PohOur ancestors escaped Taris before the bombardment. They kept everything - deeds, papers, we've even got holo-images of the estate. They always intended us to return.SakalWe can't go chasing civilian claims, justified or not. We've barely got the men to hold the base.Jaymizu PohThe Republic validated our records. But some outlaws set up a camp there - they've got security droids all around the perimeter.VoidhoundThis is an argument about three-hundred-year-old real estate?Relus PohNo. This is about a Republic citizen, whose home has been invaded by someone with an army of sec-droids, being ignored by the soldiers who should protect him! We almost got killed entering our own property!SakalThe Republic will respond to all such claims of hostile non-indigenous life-forms based on strategic value.VoidhoundAfter three hundred years, you can't blame someone for thinking it was up for grabs.Relus PohEach generation has passed down these deeds. We always knew we would return to Taris, that we were merely exiles.Jaymizu PohIf the Republic won't help us claim it, we're going to have to go back to Alderaan.Barsen'thorIt is wrong to risk lives for mere property.Jaymizu PohJedi, I know that you are just kids when you leave to train, but isn't there anywhere that you miss? A place, that you will always feel in your heart, is home?VoidhoundWhere does their property stand in the expansion plans?SakalPersonal land, sir. It'll be explored once all the public space is secured.Jaymizu PohThat's what they keep saying. That we can only claim it if we fight those awful droids ourselves. But how? Unless... could you help us?Hero of TythonYour claim seems just.SakalGreat. They're all yours, then. You find anything important, you can fill out a form at HQ.Relus PohAll we need is to get those blasted droids cleared out and find out who's controlling them. I can handle the rest.Jaymizu PohOur family was fortunate to escape the bombardment with their fortune intact. Help us reclaim what's ours, and you'll be well rewarded.Relus PohOf course we'll pay. But no droids. No... whatever's living there. Clear them out, I don't care how. |

AchitanHold. We have no more with which to defend ourselves. You have left us helpless before the rakghouls and everything that haunts this planet. My people are refugees, survivors of the battle on Coruscant. Would you turn us out of yet another home?VoidhoundWho are you?AchitanMy name is Achitan, and you might call me the leader of this colony. We fled here after the war. The lower levels were in shambles, thousands of people from thousands of species homeless and hurt. The humans in the Galactic Senate barely slapped on a new coat of paint. We came here to start a new life.Hero of TythonA horrific story.AchitanSo many men are here to reclaim this planet who know nothing of its past. Ancient Taris was a blight on the Republic, the black mark on its reputation for freedom. Humans on Taris did as they do on all planets. They seized the surface, claimed Taris's wealth and forced every other species underground. Every meter of land owned by a human was probably seized from another species, just as this was seized from my ancestors.Barsen'thorYou need somewhere to settle, I'm sure there's unclaimed land.AchitanThis is my land. My ancestors owned it for generations before the humans on Taris exiled them and all other species belowground. I have their documents, so old they were kept in printed form. Read them yourself if you doubt me.Barsen'thorEvery person should be judged on their own merit.AchitanThe Jedi Order has always understood that.Hero of TythonYour kind has contributed many Masters who are strong in the Force.AchitanWe connect to the Force through our ties to our homes.VoidhoundIf you have legal claim, why not bring it to the Republic?AchitanThey prefer not to admit Taris's ugly history. Still, we came to start over. I had hoped the new Taris would not be so quickly tainted by the old.MeteorWhat happened? There must have been a reason.AchitanIt was about money, of course. A human governor cut taxes to favor his people, and when others rebelled, they were the ones punished. I think the claim was "aliens are dangerous to Tarisian trade." If you have any sympathy for our cause, perhaps there is something you can do? We are alone and at the Republic's mercy.Hero of TythonWe would not wish to see you turned away from your home.AchitanI thank you for softening your heart to my story. I will tell my people to begin repairs on our droids. |
Dialog transcript |
Relus PohExcellent job! We could smell the smoking metal corpses from here-Jaymizu PohI told him that's not really possible-Relus PohSo, who are the crooks who set themselves up on our property? Did you drive them off?MeteorWe took out the droids, but it won't be safe to live there.Relus PohWhat are you talking about?Jaymizu PohIs it the rakghouls, monsters...? I told you we should have waited until the planet was opened to settlers.Hero of TythonThe land is held by the alien who owns this deed. Her claim is better than yours.Relus PohNo! I am not just going to give up like this!Jaymizu PohWe've got no choice, Relus. We can't do this on our own. There are alien survivors who kept their claim? I'd have thought they would never want to come back here. I- I studied the history. It wasn't right.Relus PohIt was justified! You can't make us leave because of that.MeteorAfraid I can.Relus PohYou can't do this to us! Our family governed this planet. We owned it!Jaymizu PohIt's been a long time since that mattered, Relus.Barsen'thorYou should work together. It'll take more than two people to turn this place civilized.Jaymizu PohI agree, Relus. This isn't our ancestors' estate. This is a frontier. We'll need to grow food, sew clothes, defend ourselves. Wouldn't it be better to ally with these aliens?Relus PohSew clothes? Hmm... maybe we should just hear them out, see what they're looking for.Jaymizu PohWe won't turn them away. I know what it's like to want a home. |
Dialog transcript |
SakalHey, good job. Both on the droids and getting to the bottom of that mess. Taris politics, huh, who cares about this dump anyway? Brass called me when you left. Wanted to see if your work's as good as your rep.MeteorIs there something else you want me to do?SakalWell, I doubt he's asking you over for a cup of mudleaf tea. Captain Childress calls, it usually means something needs fixing. He's got something for you to do, and he said to pass the word. If you're interested, go look him up. His office is at HQ, other side of the base. Tell them you're the one who ran off the brat brigade. |

Urana KielHey. You're not a refugee and you're not an aid worker. Why are you here?Hero of TythonI'm a Jedi, I go where I'm needed.Urana KielWell, we needed you a week ago. First the scavengers attacked us, then the local troops forced us out of our homes. Name's Urana, Urana Kiel. See, people with no reason to be here are usually thieves. But I'm not getting thief vibes from you. If you're looking for... well, anything, you won't find it here. Scavengers have our homes, and the army's fighting them. While one side's looting, the other's bombing. And we get to sit in a tent and hope.MeteorIt's better to move you here than leave you on a battlefield.Urana KielThey didn't have to drag us out in the middle of the night like they did. They could have let us grab a few things. My mom's in shock - barely leaves our tent.Barsen'thorAre you okay?It's not me I'm worried about. It's my brother, it's my mom who hasn't left her tent. So I'm trying to keep us together and stay honest. Some people around here... I'm not going to do what they do for credits. What else am I going to do? Got no job. No house. My mom's practically catatonic.Hero of TythonWe could check out your home, see if it's still standing.Urana KielSeriously? Well, if you could get back there, we left a lot of things behind-Fayem SchallHey! Did you say you're going to her house?Vidas KawatsSomeone's going to the settlement? Get me my landspeeder!Leisha VamdenMy farming droids are still out there! Oh, and my sonic washer. Hey! Bada! Get out here, someone's making a trip!Urana KielAll of you, back off! We do this one at a time, or nobody gets anything! This, uh... this could take a while. Are you still in?VoidhoundJust- everyone can't talk at once.Urana KielOkay. One at a time. You get one item - one portable item. Make it count.Leisha VamdenI want my digging tools. I don't know how long we'll be here, and if we're going to build or grow anything, we'll need them.Fayem SchallAll I hear all day is dumb boys fighting 'cause there's nothing to do. I've got a box with ten custom pazaak decks. Bring those.Vidas KawatsI got a micro-generator in my toolbox. Bring the toolbox and we can plug in everything electric.Semist BadaI've spent years working on a novel in my spare time. It's on datafile. I'm sure it won't have been stolen.Urana KielAnd what I need is our nadu seeds. Just a few packets would go a long way. It'd mean everything to my mother. Please... hurry. |
Dialog transcript |
Urana KielLeisha! Vidas! Everybody, they're backVidas KawatsIs everything okay? What did the scavengers take?Urana KielOkay, calm down, people. Let's deal with the possessions first so those who want to can leave.MeteorHopefully, this will help you start over.Leisha VamdenWe can only hope. Now... what do we have?Barsen'thorHere you are. No charge.Semist BadaThis is fabulous. Not a page lost.Vidas KawatsYeah. I can't wait to turn this on.Urana KielI have to show these to my mother. She's been so worried... be right back!Leisha VamdenI think what she meant to say was "thank you," but... she's a little giddy. Don't worry. None of us will forget your generosity. |

Ivan StahlY- you don't look like a pirate. You're not a pirate, are you? Please tell me you're not a pirate.Dana HuntDon't mind him. Pirates attacked our settlement and fed his family to the rakghouls. None of us have been the same, really. Perhaps- perhaps you can help us?Hero of TythonNobody should go through what this man has. Tell us what we can do.Ivan StahlFirst pirate that crosses my path... bang! Feed him to the rakghouls! See how he likes it!Dana HuntLook - maybe he's not all there, but all of us know how he feels. We built a settlement out here. We defended it from rakghouls. We started families. And those pirates attacked and took everything! It's hard not to want revenge, but mostly, we just need to move on. Start a new settlement, on a different part of the planet maybe.MeteorHow can we assist?Dana HuntWe had equipment at our camp that made Taris liveable, protected us from the rakghouls. If we can get that equipment back, we can start over. Maybe start to forget, and heal. Can you help?VoidhoundWe'll help. |

Dana HuntOh, thank goodness you've got our equipment. I've got word of another group of settlers not far from here. We'll probably set up camp together.MeteorYou might want to set up in a safer place this time.Dana HuntWe'll take your advice to heart.Ivan StahlI smell blood - pirate blood. Stinky, gooey pirate blood.Dana HuntThe pirates are all dead, Ivan. Now we can leave. We can build a new settlement. Let's go. |

KlewerYou're the captain, yeah? I'm Sergeant Klewer. Risha says "hello." I hear you two are in business together. I'm going to square you with Republic Customs. Agent Soganti is watching your every move, but I can fix that.VoidhoundI'm a law-abiding citizen. He doesn't scare me.VoidhoundRelax, Captain. I'm a friend. Your partner and me go way back. Don't underestimate Agent Soganti. The man never sleeps more than three hours a day. Risha expressed some concern you might not be able to leave Taris with what you came here for - not unless Republic Customs lays off. I can give you temporary diplomatic immunity. Republic Customs won't be allowed to search you or your starship.VoidhoundAnd what do you want from me?KlewerI'm looking for professional help dealing with some nasty scavengers. They're making a lot of trouble for our supply lines. I need you to convince the scavengers to relocate. When that's done, you'll be off Republic Customs' radar. It's a deal, yeah?VoidhoundYes, it's a deal.KlewerThe scavengers have been coming from these coordinates. They probably have a camp there. Make life extra unpleasant for them. When you get back, I'll have diplomatic credentials and the supplies you came for ready to go. Have fun out there, yeah? |
Dialog transcript |
VoidhoundWe handled everything just like you wantedKlewerAnd Republic Customs thinks you have full diplomatic access to the planet. That'll keep the heat off you. Here are the supplies Beryl Thorne needs delivered. Take them to the camp at these coordinates. They're for an engineer named Ovold. Good luck out there, Captain. Try not to get dead. |
Dialog transcript |
OvoldShhh... hold still. Big hungry beastie out there is watching us, about eight hundred meters away. These Baktoid X-1 combat-goggles show me everything. I never take them off. Have to keep up my visual scanning for the beasties.VoidhoundYou never take those things off?OvoldThought I lost them, once. Bonded them to my skull with industrial adhesive. Now I'm always ready.VoidhoundWhat kind of beast is out there?OvoldNot sure. Lots of carnivores here. That one ran off, but it'll be back. And I'll still be watching.I'm Ovold, core-drilling engineer. Beryl sent a holo, told me you were coming. It's about time. Scavengers raided the equipment stores three times last week. Took some good gear with them. Didn't get my goggles, though.VoidhoundWho are these scavengers?OvoldPirates, grave robbers, general scum of the galaxy. All looking to make credits off whatever they can steal.VoidhoundBeryl said you have something for me to take back.OvoldI used to, until the scavengers raided the camp. The scavengers ran off with those planetary core samples you came to get for Beryl. She can't finish her contract without them. Need you to get them back. They took the core-driller, too. Got a new one on order, but it'll be a few months.VoidhoundWhat would scavengers want with core samples?OvoldThey were grabbing everything in sight. They probably thought the pod was something valuable. Way I hear it, scavengers are pretty well organized. Got themselves a regular fortress. Real death trap.VoidhoundIf I had a credit for every death trap I've escaped, I wouldn't need this job.VoidhoundI know what you mean. You're looking for a cargo pod marked "Taris core samples." Should be easy to pick out from everything else the scavengers stole. Speaking of which, I'll pay extra for snatching the rest of my stolen gear. Need it to finish my work. Good luck out there... |
Dialog transcript |
TyrodallWhy'd you have to go and kill everybody? Some of those guys were alright.VoidhoundI'm here for the planetary core samples. Hand them over.Tyrodall"Planetary core samples"... right. You work for Beryl Thorne, don't you? That's what I used to do. The name's Tyrodall. I was helping Beryl smuggle artifacts off Taris disguised as core samples. Thought we'd get rich. Turns out, Beryl's a soft touch. Instead of selling what we smuggle on the Imperial market, Beryl gives relics to descendants of Taris survivors for a tiny "finder's fee." Ridiculous. It's dangerous work, and we should be earning a killing.VoidhoundThere's an Imperial market on Taris?TyrodallNo, but high-ups in Imperial space pay big credits for Taris artifacts. They're status symbols. I let Beryl think rakghouls killed me and went into business with the scavengers. They had a bright idea to increase profits. Why sell a relic to the Imperials once when we can sell it a dozen times? These droids are making copies of the relics. And that's just the beginning. I'm working out deals with wealthy collectors all over the galaxy.VoidhoundThese droids can forge counterfeits?TyrodallThey can recreate a relic down to the last detail. The copies are flawless.VoidhoundYou'll get yourself killed crossing the Empire.TyrodallBy the time my buyers figure things out, I'll be far, far away from Imperial space. Let's be smart about this. I'll give you a hefty payout and a cargo pod of counterfeit relics if you keep my operation quiet. You go home richer, Beryl gets some "relics" to give away and I stay in business. What do you say?VoidhoundI think she deserves better than to be cheated by you.TyrodallOh, well. Guess we finish this the hard way. Droids! Code black! |
Dialog transcript |
OvoldHey, you got all the gear those scavengers stole. Turnabout's fair play, right? Got those core samples, too. That'll make Beryl a happy lady. You should go see her right away. Tell Beryl I said hello, huh?VoidhoundThese aren't core samples, Ovold - and you know it.OvoldSure they are. That's the cargo pod I put them in. Don't tell me those scavengers dumped them out?VoidhoundThe cargo pod is full of Taris relics.OvoldI wouldn't say that too loud if I was you. It's illegal to run contraband on Taris.VoidhoundI'm not here to bust you.OvoldI don't know what you're talking about. I'm just an honest engineer earning a living out here.VoidhoundTyrodall said differently. Remember him?OvoldTyrodall? He's dead. Got eaten by rakghouls. Wouldn't have happened if he had goggles like mine.VoidhoundThose relics didn't get in there by themselves, Ovold.OvoldIs this some kind of practical joke or something? That cargo pod had core samples inside before the scavengers stole it! If the pod has something else in it now, it's got nothing to do with me.VoidhoundHuh, you're a pretty good liar - I think it's the goggles.OvoldThat's what the guys at the sabacc table used to say, before they stopped letting me play with them. Have a real nice day, Captain. |
Dialog transcript |
Beryl ThorneI can count the number of times I've been truly impressed in my life on one hand, Captain. Congratulations. You walking in with those core samples just got added to the list. Argo, take this cargo pod and stow it with the others.Argo (AR-G0)When will we finally leave this accursed swamp? The humidity makes my joints rust....VoidhoundIf I'm gonna be smuggling relics, I expect to be well paid.Beryl ThorneSmuggling relics? But I'd never do anything against the- heh, even I don't believe that one. How'd you find out what I'm really up to? What happened with the scavengers?VoidhoundTurns out, Tyrodall faked his death by rakghouls and joined the scavengers. He told me everything.Beryl ThorneI never liked that guy. Where's he now?VoidhoundHe's fertilizing this beautiful swamp.Beryl ThorneStupid Devaronian. He probably drew first. Sorry I didn't keep things on the up-and-up, but you're working with Risha. I've got trust issues there. I don't want these relics decorating some fat Senator's bedroom. They're going to the descendents of Taris survivors, where they belong.VoidhoundYou've got a real heart of gold, don't you?Beryl ThorneThere's more to life than profit. If people understood that, the galaxy would be a better place.VoidhoundFine by me.Beryl ThorneOh. Well... I'm glad you feel that way. Admit it - you had fun. Hey, look at that - the Republic just updated my contract log as "complete." And right on time, my spaceport friend granted me access to the Republic sensor array. Let's find us a vault.VoidhoundTell me about this mysterious friend of yours.Beryl ThorneA lonely technician with a boring job. Didn't take much to wrap him around my finger. Hmm... sensors are picking up the vault's unique radiation signature. That's good. A-ha, there it is! Oh... your vault is in Zone Zero. That's bad.VoidhoundZone Zero?Beryl ThorneZone Zero is no-man's-land. When the Republic first got here, it sent a bunch of surveyors to map the region. One surveyor made it back alive. Said the place is overrun with things worse than rakghouls. Nobody goes there.VoidhoundIf that's where the vault is, that's where I'm going.Beryl ThorneYou'll need serious hardware to crack that vault. Risha's good at getting into places she isn't supposed to. Maybe talk to her. Here's your fee for helping complete my contract. We're even now. Good luck, Captain. |

ChildressHey, there. Captain Childress. I want to thank you for taking the time to see me. You did nice work on that land claim mess. Like we flew this many troops to the armpit of the galaxy so some kids could play pioneer. It'll take way more than it's worth to make this planet livable. Only thing interesting about Taris is that it's the worst failure the Republic's ever had.MeteorThe destruction of Taris was a terrible loss.VoidhoundI don't know much about Taris's history.ChildressWay back when, the Sith were searching for a Jedi here. When they couldn't find her, they tried destroying the entire planet. The Jedi escaped, but millions of people died an ugly flaming death. The Empire tried the same thing on Coruscant in the last war. Three hundred years after Taris, we still don't know squat about how to defend against a bombardment once ships are in low orbit.VoidhoundI'm good, but not that good. I could take a battle cruiser or two, but I don't know if I can stop a whole bombardment.ChildressHa! We're not there yet. Right now, we're just trying to learn what we did wrong. That's why I'm here. Learn what we can so we don't repeat the mistakes.I sent commandos to defend a research team at the crash site of the Endar Spire - the last Republic warship shot down over this planet. If we're lucky, that ship recorded the whole bombardment. But my team's lost contact... which means there are desk jockeys in the wild with the most valuable data on Taris.MeteorWe'll go find the team. If they've still got coms, tell them help is on the way.ChildressThe crash site's a ways out. Fast as you can make it - I don't know if we've got survivors. Research team's your number two priority. Data's the most important thing. Take anything the Endar Spire recorded to Commander Viqui at the outpost. |

TeranosMove it! Secure the objectives! Every last warhead accounted for, and that scum Gorr taken down for good. That's some impressive work! We've got to get these back to base ASAP, but here's that bonus I promised. Thanks for lending a hand - you really saved the day on this one.MeteorGlad to help.TeranosAs long as we've got help from people like you, we might just get this place under control someday.Let's move out! |
Dialog transcript |
CeraThank you for coming so fast! I told you the commander would send someone, Garthe!GartheThe commander didn't send them! You think they're from base? You ever seen a regulation group of soldiers look like that?CeraOkay, maybe. But that doesn't mean they can't help us. Please, sirs, have any of you ever faced a rakghoul?MeteorIs this a research station or something?CeraWe're a Republic archaeological salvage team. They call us the "corpse counters" because we're cataloging the bodies from the bombardment. It's important work-GartheIt's pointless work! People are dying out here so the Republic can have a list they'll never look at.CeraThese people deserve someone to acknowledge their deaths.GartheWe were in an old Czerka Works pipe this morning when those monsters came out of nowhere. They killed our guards and dragged down half a dozen of our team before we could do anything. We don't know if anyone's still alive, but if they are, every second counts.CeraThey might not be dead. We ran, we didn't see. Could you please... just check if anyone survived?GartheLet it go, Cera. They're dead already. Another few hours won't matter.Hero of TythonIf there is any chance your friends live, they deserve every effort to save them.CeraThank you. I'm honored that you would help us.MeteorDon't expect miracles. If your friends have been gone long, there's not much hope.GartheThat's what I've been saying. Rakghouls don't leave survivors. They just make more rakghouls.CeraSomeone could have hid... you never know!VoidhoundI wouldn't want to be the one left behind in a hole full of those things.CeraI wanted to go back for them-GartheDon't be ridiculous, Cera. Then we'd just be dead, too.Barsen'thorMight give it a shot.CeraThank you. It means a lot, knowing we're not abandoning them. We were in the Czerka Works pipeline. If you go soon, there may still be someone there.GartheNo. There's no hope for our friends now... but maybe you can make those monsters pay for what they did. |
Dialog transcript |
CeraYou're back! And... I don't see anyone with you. Did you...? A- are they...?GartheDead? What did you think? The rakghouls would buy them flowers and send them home?MeteorI'm sorry. Your friends are gone, but I made sure those rakghouls will never kill again.GartheCold comfort. There's probably another swarm already moving in. If you killed those freaks, I'll call it even. At least we can clear out the corpses without becoming one.VoidhoundActually, one of them left you a message, Garthe....CeraA message? Oh, that must be Elihsu. They were very close. I'll call the base and tell them what happened.GartheI'm putting in for a transfer. No job is worth this.VoidhoundI hear you've found a way to make it worth your while.GartheWha- what did you find? Was Elihsu alive? What did that lying coward say about me?Hero of TythonYou should have more respect for those murdered by the Sith.GartheThree hundred years ago! All the Sith involved are just as dead as them.Barsen'thorGreed's one thing, Garthe, but grave robbing's just low.GartheOkay, fine. So I'm sending some trinkets into the black market instead of Republic archives. So what?Barsen'thorElihsu says he knows how the dead feel now when you desecrate them.GartheI've given five years of my life to this rock! Now that's worth nothing because I laid claim to a few forgotten necklaces?GartheSo, fine. You found me out. Who cares?MeteorWe'll see if you think prisoners have as few rights as the dead.GartheVery funny.CeraThe commander's sending a team to retrieve the bodies. Thank you for doing what you could.MeteorAsk your partner what's been happening to the valuables you find.GartheOh, please. This is so humiliating. Yes, Elihsu and I were stealing some trinkets for the black market. The blasted dead don't cry over it, why should you?CeraHow could you! You told me those boxes were going to the Republic archive.CeraYeah, so I lied. What... you going to turn me in for that, too?CeraWe'll work this out later - we've asked enough of your time. Although... if you have a moment.... |

SynodaIt's amazing, isn't it? To stand at the site of such history? The fall of Taris has always cast a shadow over the Republic. So many millions of our people are descended from the refugees who fled its destruction. And we've carried its effects for far too long.VoidhoundDo we know you?SynodaI'm sorry. I am Doctor Synoda. I have made it my life's work to cure Colu's syndrome - a rare cancer that affects only the descendants of Tarisian refugees. But I have reached the limits of what I can do without the original settlers' medical records. I came here to access the systems in Taris's old general hospital, but I, ah, underestimated the dangers.Hero of TythonIt sounds like a worthy cause. Is there a way we can assist?SynodaMaster Jedi, I am honored by your interest. Please, go to the old hospital. I have the plans here - there are emergency generators that may still work. If you bring them up, you can download the old records. Bring them back, and you could save millions of people from a life of pain and early death. |
Dialog transcript |
MeteorThese are all the medical records we could find.SynodaThank you. I'm sure you have braved many higher-profile dangers, but you will never do anything more important. You have saved countless lives. One of them may well be mine. My ancestors fled Taris three hundred years ago, and my family still carries their curse. I thank you. |
Dialog transcript |
Ianna CelAs you can see by the data, there is no disease in known space that propagates as quickly as the Tarisian rakghoul plague. Even one individual rakghoul can start a pandemic, as we have observed in eighty-one colonies to date. Until a vaccine can be widely distributed, it is highly doubtful that any civilian colonization effort will yield lasting results. Thank you.MeteorIf you're working on a vaccine, We'd like to help. I didn't know rakghouls had gotten so many colonies.Ianna Cel"Working on" is a generous term. The last breakthrough in rakghoul plague research was three centuries ago.Doctor Ianna Cel, but no one gets famous doing Tarisian rakghoul work. The last breakthrough was three centuries ago. HoloNet archives say a Doctor Forn developed a "rakghoul serum" vaccine just hours before the bombardment. I've been trying to acquire this serum, but short of putting a blaster to someone's head, that's not going to happen.Hero of TythonIf there's a cure out there, you'd be saving millions.Ianna CelDon't tempt me. There's a pirate camp not far from here. I heard they went after the ruins of Sepanik Memorial Hospital. Sepanik was well preserved. If there's rakghoul serum to be found, it'd be there. I asked Commander Viqui to step in, but since it wasn't a Republic hospital, the pirates have legal salvage rights.Barsen'thorWe'll see what they want in trade for this serum.MeteorCommander Viqui has her hands full. We'll handle the pirates. What is legal and what is right are often different. We'll pay them a visit.Ianna CelThat's... that's extremely brave of you. The Death's Claw pirate gang robs anything that talks and shoots anything that doesn't.Hero of TythonThis serum is worth a lot more lives than mine. We're in.Ianna CelBut please - be careful. This plague has made enough martyrs. I can't say what will be required to get this done, but this plague has infected half a planet's worth of people. So if that serum shows up on my lab table, it'd be unethical to throw it away for any reason. I hope my position is clear. |
Dialog transcript |
RyamnYou picked the wrong medbay to rob, vac-brain! There's gonna be two hundred Death's Claw pirates coming through that door!MeteorThere's not that many left. Trust me.RyamnWait, uh... wait, when I said you picked the wrong place to rob, I meant, uh, that we don't have a lot of money. You see these guys lying here? They've got the rakghoul plague. You touch me, and they'll be on you like Hutts on a buffet. Except, you know... faster. And don't think they're incapacitated. They just look that way. I've got a serum you wouldn't believe.Hero of TythonSo it works, does it? I'd heard you dug something up. I'm going to need it.RyamnYeah, we've been using it to... wait. No, you don't. You can't take it! These people are infected! If you cut off my supply of serum, these guys are going to turn. You know what that means? I'm going to have to shoot them all in the head before they try to eat my liver.Barsen'thorYou're a doctor, right? Synthesize some more.RyamnWith what? My state-of-the-art facilities? I can only use what I find, and we don't find much. The only place I can think of that might have some left is the ruins of Dynamet General. The place was basically ghoul town. The moment we got near, the rakghouls went berserk. It's one of their breeding grounds or something. You want serum, you get it there and leave us alone.VoidhoundWe'll look there... once.RyamnNo, the stuff is down there. I swear on my medical license. The real one. |
Dialog transcript |
Ianna CelWelcome back. Let's get those serum samples analyzed and see what we've got. Well, thank the Force for good Tarisian storage technology. I wasn't sure anything would still be viable after three centuries. While we wait... is there a cost to these samples I should be aware of? A deal with a pirate crew, perhaps?VoidhoundNothing worth mentioning.Ianna CelAh, here we are. Fortunately, the plague is so virulent, it cultures very rapidly. |
Dialog transcript |
KarlsuLieutenant Karlsu. I'm all that's left of Commander Childress's fifth detail. Please tell me you're our reinforcements.MeteorYour hopes are answered.KarlsuGive me a moment. All's clear, guys. And we've got some muscle from back on base. This is what's left of our research team. The others got ambushed while working. Scavengers must have guessed we were after something good. We need to hold them off long enough for the research team to recover and download that data.RSL1You'll need to reactivate the generator subsystems as we go, so we can grab the data when we hit the main computer. We'll follow you.MeteorI'm on point. Researchers inside; anyone who's not working, fan out behind me.KarlsuAye, sir, aye. Okay. Data's priority one. Everyone into the ship. Go! |
Dialog transcript |
KarlsuIf you hadn't come when you did, those would be our smoking corpses there, no question. Unfortunately, we're not done, not until this wreck's data is in the hands of Commander Viqui.MeteorGive me what you have. I'll get it to the commander.KarlsuWe've recovered all the high-priority info. If you run that to the outpost, I'll hold off what's left of the scavengers until our reinforcements arrive.RSL1Please - get the data to Commander Viqui. It's the only way to be sure all of our work doesn't go to waste.KarlsuWell, I'd offer a salute, but that don't mean much to someone like you. Best way you can help is to take this datapad to Commander Viqui at the outpost.RSL1Thank you for protecting us. And good luck. |
Dialog transcript |
ViquiIf you have any questions about military operations on- Wait- are you the ones who recovered the Endar Spire data?MeteorEverything from the primary computers is on here.ViquiThe data from the Endar Spire will be invaluable to the Republic's war efforts. Lieutenant Karlsu tells me there's close surveillance footage of the Imperial warships.MeteorHavoc Squad belongs to the Republic, sir.ViquiAnd the Republic is honored to have you. Thank you for your service. Republic intelligence has been waiting for this data since the bombardment fell. |

CeraDid you notice anything about the number of rakghouls in that pipe? I think it's more than most places, right?GartheOh, not that nonsense again....VoidhoundYou sound like there's something more on your mind.CeraOkay, this'll sound crazy - but there's more rakghouls at our grave sites than any of the Republic target zones.GartheThey're just drawn to the noise and the smell of flesh.CeraWe're not any noisier or... fleshier than a platoon of soldiers. I think they're protecting their ancestors.Hero of TythonAncestors?CeraI'm not saying they discuss it over tea, but I think something is driving them to defend these grave sites. They were human once, you know. The first ones, anyway. It's a disease that turned them into monsters. And we still don't understand how it works. All we know about rakghouls right now is they have a disease that can turn people into monsters, and they've taken over all of Taris. But if my theory is correct, it'll be our first insight into how they think. This could be a first step toward taking the planet back from them.MeteorUnderstanding your enemy is the key to defeating him.CeraExactly. Right now, rakghouls are like something out of a nightmare. We never know when or where they'll attack.Hero of TythonOnly if we look through their eyes can we understand what they see.CeraI kind of hope they're really the beasts they seem. Imagine if there's still a sentient person, trapped inside....VoidhoundCan you prove it?CeraThe salvage team can't get to the main bombardment sites...GartheYou're not sending them to the bombardment site, are you? That place is so thick with rakghouls you can see them from orbit!CeraDon't you interfere! We know what you think of the people of Taris. I'm right about this. Why else would they be so determined to guard the bombardment sites? Why so many rakghouls at the bombardment sites unless they're staying near their human ancestors?GartheI told you no one cares about your crackpot theories, Cera. Stick to counting bones. Let someone else do the science.CeraShut up and wait to be arrested.Really. I think I can prove it... If you could get samples from both the rakghouls and the skeletons at one of the main sites, we could see if they're related.MeteorDo you have details? What exactly are we talking about?CeraThere probably isn't a way to get a rakghoul to volunteer a genetic sample, so, um, I guess you'll be killing them. Then we'll compare their blood samples with genetic material from corpses in the same area.VoidhoundBy tomorrow, you should be able to answer this question once and for all.GartheThe bombardment site is chock-full of salvage no one's ever managed to get to-CeraYou never change, do you? Those are important archaeological artifacts, not some kind of... pirate treasure.GartheThis is ridiculous. Are you really going to take up more of their time with your crazy theories?CeraLet them decide if it's worth it. Please don't let Garthe discourage you. This is important. And I don't think there's anyone else on this planet willing to brave those rakghouls to find out. I'll be waiting to hear what you find. |
Dialog transcript |
CeraThe Republic sent a unit to retrieve our team's bodies. They said to thank you for your help.GartheYou're not going to ask if they went after your pet project?CeraWhy do you always try to ruin everything? Do Sullustan moms not hug their children or something? Um... did you get to the bombardment site? I don't see a scratch on you.VoidhoundThe rakghouls didn't want to give up their blood, but we convinced them.CeraI'm sure you can be quite... persuasive.GartheAw, is that hero worship I see there?CeraJust let me see the samples. I've got a portable scanner that can give us preliminary results right.... Now. That's amazing. There's over a fifty percent correlation. Genetic drift usually means a much less marked connection even in a normal population after so many years.MeteorWhat does that mean? They really are defending their ancestors, then?GartheIt means we just made one of the most important discoveries in Tarisian history.MeteorDoes that give us any insight into how to defeat them?CeraIf we know they defend a territory, then we know where to avoid... or even how to draw them out.GartheBut consider what you're saying! This means rakghouls have remnants of sentience. We can't kill them.Hero of TythonThey cling so desperately to their lost humanity.CeraIt could just be geography, remaining close to their initial infection site. We'll need a xenobiologist out to study this--GartheDon't just dismiss it now! This is an incredible find!CeraWhat? Where's the cynical disbelief?GartheYou can't dispute the numbers, Cera. You're right. This is amazing. If rakghouls have enough rationality to remember people and places that matter to them, we can't keep treating them like mindless animals.Barsen'thorIf they can think, maybe someday we can make peace with them.GartheExactly. We need to cancel our operations in these grave sites. We can't keep antagonizing them.CeraBut if we know they come to the defense of certain territories, we can bait them, draw them out so the Republic can send in troops to exterminate them.GartheNo! If they're sentient, we can't just keep murdering them.CeraI'll contact the Reconstruction Authority. Do you have an opinion on this?Barsen'thorIf there's any way to coexist peacefully with the rakghouls, we should take it.CeraI- I guess it's a virtue to forgive, right? At least this way, maybe we can avoid those kinds of attacks in the future. I'll give the Republic your recommendation. Thank you again for all your help. |

Ianna CelHmm. Bad news. The serum you recovered looks like it was effective three hundred years ago, but the rakghoul plague has mutated since then. This serum will only provide effective immunity for extraordinarily healthy individuals.VoidhoundNo one's going to take an unreliable vaccine.Ianna CelYes, but it gives us options. Right now I need what we call a "lucky survivor," whose system has antibodies to the modern plague.MeteorHow do we make it stop modern rakghouls?Ianna CelManufacturing a true vaccine requires what we call a "lucky survivor," someone whose system has made antibodies to the plague. We haven't had a survivor yet, for obvious reasons. But this serum might provide the link we need. If I infected an extraordinary individual protected by the serum, I could collect the antibodies and make an effective vaccine.VoidhoundUh-oh.Ianna CelI need someone with proven recuperative powers. Someone who gets injured almost on a daily basis. Ideally, they would have survived stabbings, shootings, poison, infections... maybe all of the above. Or, barring that, someone with conscious control over their bodily processes. Such as a Jedi.Hero of TythonI am well versed in that art. It should be safer for me than others.VoidhoundI've been shot more often than the family holocamera. This can't be much worse.Barsen'thorDoctor... We don't get a chance to save a billion lives every day. I'm in.Hero of TythonTo immunize every Tarisian for generations to come? To recolonize what the Sith destroyed? There is not one of us who wouldn't lay down our lives.Ianna CelI hoped to convince maybe one of you - but to see more than that is... I'm overwhelmed. Well... and I had this whole speech ready... all right. We have a medical droid, CB-08-4, set up to observe rakghouls in the field. He'll be able to collect the antibodies and slow any potential complications. After I give you the serum, go out there and test it. Let the rakghouls attack you and... see what happens.MeteorGet it over with. Inject us and let's get going.MeteorAre there any other medical facts I should know?Ianna CelUh... sure. You're doing the right thing. Now here's your serum injection.MeteorYou don't have this plague in a needle or something?Ianna CelIf it needs to work in the field, it needs to work in the field. Now, here's your serum injection. I hope the Force is with you, because the science is stretched to the limit. |

CB-08-4Ah, I see your infection is progressing. Hold still, I will take samples for analysis. While I transmit the data to Doctor Cel, there are some questions I should ask. Do you have any of the following symptoms: dizziness, fever, shortness of breath or an inexhaustible hunger for sentient flesh?VoidhoundCan you do anything about these cuts? I'm losing blood, here.CB-08-4I'm sorry, my core function is in analysis, not trauma care. Ah, here's Doctor Cel.Ianna CelGood news. Your antibody count is off the charts. I'll start work on a vaccine immediately. You are remarkably brave. Our progress has just jumped forward by years. While you recuperate, I'm going to transmit the usual secrecy agreements. Just use your thumbprint to sign on the sensor.MeteorWhat do you mean "usual" secrecy agreements?Ianna CelThis is standard procedure when the Republic develops biotech with significant earnings potential. We develop the vaccine for Republic soldiers first, and when it's proven, sell it to colonists. Until then, it's under wraps. We don't want the Exchange or the Sith funding some horrible operation with an underground version. The amount of money we're talking about is staggering. I could make a career out of a vaccine like this.Hero of TythonLives will be lost while this profit is being made.Ianna CelTell me something I don't know. Every week we hear another rakghoul horror story. But every colonist on the planet is going to want this vaccine. How do I tell my superiors we gave up that kind of money?Barsen'thorIf you get a sample to the Jedi, I bet they'd find someone to make it fast.Ianna CelI'll keep that in mind. We'll get this cure out one way or another.VoidhoundAn entire planet succumbed to this plague. Are you a doctor or a patent office?Ianna CelI'm a doctor. And this cure will get made, even if I have to build the manufacturing plant or hand-synthesize every macrophage....CB-08-4Well, I think she's angry. But from past experience, may I say that usually motivates her. If it means anything coming from a droid, congratulations on your research and also, your remarkable survival. |

Kahrin WekNormally, our fourth outpost comes here to pick up its supplies, but their convoy never arrived this month. I'm afraid something happened - they need to be found.MeteorJust tell us where to look.Kahrin WekYou've got to be the best friend these soldiers ever had. The route between the outposts runs along Lake Brell - not the best planning. There's rakghouls there and a nexu spawning ground, and worse. Usually the convoys manage by only traveling when the sun is highest. Plus lots and lots of firepower. But if they're out there too long... well, you need to find them.Hero of TythonEvery moment we delay risks their lives. We'll leave right now.Kahrin WekWhatever happened to the convoy, we need to make sure Morne Outpost gets their supplies. Sonic emitters along the route usually keep off the worst of the critters. But if they're on the fritz, that convoy would have walked into a feeding frenzy. Fix the emitters and see what you can find about the convoy. When you're done, report to Commander Yajak at Morne Outpost. And thank you. |

GilrohWe just stopped to rest! Geozel found a scratch, and we don't know if it's the rakghoul infection, so we're waiting. And Ferdoin might be coming down with Geonosian swamp flu, but we're on our way, I swear, and- You're looking at me very strangely.Hero of TythonAre you part of the Outpost Four supply convoy?GilrohUm, yes. Private Gilroh. I assumed you were looking for us.VoidhoundWhat are you expecting me to accuse you of?GilrohNothing! I mean, I know we're late, so people naturally start thinking....VoidhoundThinking what? That you were dead?GilrohWould they care? I'm sorry. I shouldn't- are you even Republic? I don't recognize....Barsen'thorWhat are you trying to say?GilrohNothing. There's nothing to tell. I mean- I'm Private Gilroh, Taris Outpost Four. I kind of assumed you were looking for our convoy. We, uh, just stopped to rest. Sorry to trouble everyone.MeteorYou're forty-eight hours late. Have you been here that whole time? Are you afraid of something? Is someone after you?GilrohWhat isn't after us on this awful planet? The nexu, the--the blasted rakghouls! Like I said, Ferdoin was hurt- I mean, Geozel, and- Oh, forget it. I was never a good liar. We aren't going back, is that what you want to hear? We've deserted.All I wanted was to serve the Republic, fight Imperials, see new parts of the galaxy. I never asked to be sentenced to this forsaken hole.Hero of TythonAre conditions so bad you would turn against your every oath of loyalty?GilrohI love the Republic, I do, but I've been here five years on a one-year tour. I've sent complaints, talked to psych counselors, nothing.Five years we've been out here, no break. Most of our friends have died. We're wounded, tired, broken. Fighting something that can't think, can't be frightened. And if you get the slightest scratch, you become the enemy and your own squad puts you down like a dog!MeteorHow could you do that? What kind of man abandons his comrades in the face of such an enemy?GilrohHa. We're not the only ones talking about running for it. We just got the first chance. You think we didn't agonize about that? If we were fighting the Sith... if our deaths would mean something... there's nothing on Taris!VoidhoundI know army life stinks, but don't they kill you or something if you desert?GilrohPrison on Coruscant - which is way better than being stuck here. At least your family can visit!Hero of TythonYou have given the Republic as much as it can reasonably demand.GilrohY- you're not going to turn us in?Hero of TythonYou'll never survive alone out here. You've been through enough.GilrohWe're heading back near the main base. There are scavengers with ships there. Maybe we can make it offworld. Please, tell Commander Yajak that you found our bodies. That way no one will ever come looking.Barsen'thorWe'll buy you a ticket home. Take this. It should be enough to buy a berth on a smuggler's ship.GilrohYou... I can't... I mean, we thought we might get a spot with one of the scavengers, but then we heard they kill strangers on sight. This- this would save my life. Maybe I can even get back in time to fix things with my girl. |

YajakRepublic Outpost Four, sovereign territory of the Galactic Republic. No unauthorized visitors. We will defend ourselves with deadly force if necessary. State your business!MeteorFirst lieutenant, Havoc Squad. Most recently of Ord Mantell.YajakThere's no unauthorized travel this far into the wilds; best policy's usually blast first, chat later. Don't suppose you were sent by Commander Gardit with news about our supplies?MeteorYour supplies are on the way, but no thanks to him.YajakSounds like there's a story there, but I won't waste your time asking for it. Let me just say "thanks."Our own convoy never reported back - wouldn't be the first time we lost one to the nexu. I was about to send another, but that means leaving the whole outpost understaffed and undefended. And the rakghouls have been real active this month. Don't suppose you saw any sign of our boys? If they're still alive, they better have a good excuse for leaving us hanging.Hero of TythonWe found their bodies along the route.YajakNo surprise. Ah, well, they'll be missed. I'll send their uniforms home to their kin. |

Reldar KandikRana Squadron's down. Every last one. I caught some flak, bailed out. Got a few durasteel splinters in my hide, but nothing that will keep me from making it back. But my wingmen, all proud Duros, ace pilots... they didn't make it. Shot down by those blasted pirates!MeteorWhat was your mission?Rana Squadron was sent to obliterate the old Taris Reclamation base. Previous occupants were killed by rakghouls and toxins, but their data's still intact. Our bombs were supposed to incinerate the intel, but the pirate scum beat us there, killed my squadron... my Duros brothers!MeteorThe Republic intel's compromised. We can't let the pirates sell it off.Reldar KandikCorrect, sir. If those records get out, the Empire could ruin our entire reconstruction plan. But if anyone can stop them, it's your team. The pirates will sell our entire Reclamation strategy to the highest bidder, crippling our reconstruction, unless you stop them first.MeteorWe'll disappear your intel.Reldar KandikRana Squadron thanks you. Recover our datalogs, force your way into the central command station and destroy our control droid. Brute force and thoroughness encouraged. After that, the pirate scum won't find a scrap of intel worth selling. |
Dialog transcript |
MeteorThe old Reclamation base data is wiped clean.Reldar KandikThen the mission's a success. Major Dejan will be pleased, not to mention the Reconstruction Authority. But no one will be as grateful as me. Consider yourselves honorary members of Rana Squadron. You've more than earned it. And once I'm back at base, I'll let the men's families know their last mission is complete. |

Reconstruction Ofiicer (holo)What do you think, Kon?Kon YelThe foundation of the Taris ChemWorks Factory cannot be repaired. I expect total collapse within two weeks. Once the building falls, the stored chemicals will flood this area. They are... highly toxic to humans. I am sorry.Reconstruction Ofiicer (holo)I'll make sure there are speeders on hand, but we can't just pack up and go. Do what you can.Kon YelAs always. I will pursue an alternative. Excuse my inattentiveness, masters - you are with the reconstruction effort? I advise you not to stay long.MeteorYou were talking about evacuation. What's going on?Kon YelMany of these ruins are unstable. A nearby structure used for chemical storage is on the verge of crumbling. As I was explaining to my colleague, there is only one way to remove the chemicals before they spill - a burnoff. A well-armed demolitions team could reach the structure and incinerate the chemical stockpiles. I can provide the incendiaries; unfortunately, no team is available.Hero of TythonWe're willing to try.Kon YelYour generosity is considerable. You should know, however: between the structural instability, the toxicity levels and the incendiary chemicals, the mission does carry substantial risk. It is nonetheless urgent. You are not a demolitions team - I fully recognize this. But if you could arrange the burnoff, I would humbly welcome your aid. |
Dialog transcript |
WelkinsExcuse me, friends. The Republic told me you might be able to help with a difficult situation. They say you are our most reliable operatives on Taris. Have you heard anything about Titroxinate being sold on the black market?Hero of TythonIt's rare for Jedi to be consulted about the black market.WelkinsI suppose that's true. My apologies, Master Jedi.VoidhoundWhat makes you think we know anything about the black market? What are you implying?WelkinsN- nothing. Only your reputation... I thought maybe you would... it doesn't matter. I just thought... you might be able to help us keep it out of the wrong hands. Titroxinate was the pre-patent name for the weaponized agent we think was responsible for the rakghoul plague. The Empire could fashion it into a terrible weapon - turning our soldiers into monsters and setting them against us.MeteorWhere's the arms dealer who's selling this stuff?WelkinsrI'm more worried about his source.Barsen'thorSo, how do we stop that?WelkinsWe've traced the original Titroxinate samples to an old ChemWorks factory. It's overrun with nexu; we can't get near it. If you can retrieve any canisters that remain, the Republic will see you're well rewarded for your effort. |
Dialog transcript |
MeteorThese are all the canisters we were able to recover.WelkinsThank you. The Republic thanks you. Imagine how horrific it would be if this rakghoul nightmare had spread to the rest of the galaxy. |
Dialog transcript |
Kon YelI can smell chemicals on you. But I also smell fire and smoke. Did you complete the burnoff? All the toxins and pollutants have been incinerated?Barsen'thorAbsolutely.Kon YelNothing could please me more. Thank you. The structure will still collapse, but it shall leave no poison in its wake. Perhaps we can rebuild the area after all. |

GarditWelcome to Taris. I hear you've done the Republic a good turn in the past, so I'm sorry not to have a warmer welcome for you.Hero of TythonYou look worried.GarditUh, we're having some trouble, nothing you could have predicted, but... there you are. Our bases here are far from self-sufficient. We're not farmers, and there's no existing infrastructure here to work with.MeteorI can't believe the Republic sent you out here without sufficient supplies.GarditOh, we get supplies. Every month. Shipped in from Ord Mantell. Problem is, this month's ship went nose-down into some of the worst territory on Taris. It'll take another month before the next one arrives, and in the meantime, my men are stewing their gloves.VoidhoundSo, deal with it.GarditOh, we'll live. But you know soldiers - spend half their paychecks on pazaak, then wonder why they've got nothing left for a rainy day. Lot of discipline slips since the reduced rations went into effect, though. Almost let a rakghoul right through the perimeter. It'd be a great service to the Republic if you want to help us out...Barsen'thorNo one should be left to starve while serving the Republic.GarditThe Republic thanks you for your service. Every package you recover from the crash site means another week we can hold out at full strength. Our men tried to reach the ship once, but they turned back after taking serious casualties. They said it's more than just rakghouls, but couldn't make an ID. You still want to go, you'll need to talk to our quartermaster at the supply shed across the base. She's got the exact coordinates of the crash. |
Dialog transcript |
Kahrin WekAnd you're just going to make this all better, huh? I'm Kahrin Wek, quartermaster. Commander Gardit just called to say you're retrieving our supplies. For which, by the way, I and the rest of the troops here humbly thank you.Hero of TythonWant to calm down and point me to where your supply ship crashed?Kahrin WekOf course! You think I want to see everyone here starve? But I don't want Commander Fat-Pants to think it means he gets away with this. Steal from your troops, spend the Republic's money on vintage wine and silks from Alderaan, build your office out of Alderaanian timber, but it's fine, because there's a gang of big-hearted heroes around to save you.MeteorThat's a serious accusation.Kahrin WekThen let me be straight. Getting our supplies would be a great help, but pulling Commander Gardit from his position would be the best help of all. I said over and over that that ship needed repairs. The left stasis generator was loose, and the hyperdrive motivator was seeping fluid. But Gardit had already spent our allotted maintenance budget. On himself.MeteorCan you prove this?Kahrin WekEvery shipment has some personal item he's bringing in. And then some! But he simply slashed the rations budget in half and figures it's over. The men are starving. And starving men don't hold up well against creatures where one tiny scratch could lead to a base-wide epidemic.Barsen'thorYou have proof?Kahrin WekI'm telling the truth. Somehow he's juggling the numbers he sends to HQ. No commander needs a personal vehicle in an outpost this size. If you can take this holocamera out to the crash site, you could get the evidence I need to get him court-martialed.MeteorGive me the camera.Kahrin WekThank you. If you take holopics of the engines, I can show that the documented lack of repairs is what caused the crash. The most important thing is the supplies, though. The crash site isn't far. When you get everything, bring it back here so I can distribute it. |
Dialog transcript |
Kahrin WekWe don't have antibiotics. They come on the same ship as everything else.GarditYou're supposed to keep better tabs on that sort of thing. These men have the Csillian flu. They could die if- Ah, you've returned. And with all of you unhurt. Dare I ask if you've managed to recover our supplies?MeteorTell your men they're off rationing.GarditNot a moment too soon, Lieutenant. Let me tell you, you really saved my stripes on this one. The men came close to mutiny when I cut rations again. Hmph. They knew this wasn't going to be a luxury cruise.MeteorYour outpost won't starve now, no thanks to you.GarditNow you just watch yourself. I did everything in my power to-Kahrin WekWhat do you expect? You ask your men to starve while you eat bantha steaks from offworld?MeteorThese pictures prove you knew the ship was damaged, and you sent it anyway.Kahrin WekThey're going to Republic Command. Along with my documentation of every personal purchase you've made. These men left their families and risked their lives to come here. If they die, it should be for someone better than you.GarditI- I didn't know the ship was so bad. I thought, if it was serious, they'd catch it on Ord Mantell.MeteorThe men on Taris deserve a better leader.VoidhoundA good commander lives under the same conditions as his troops.GarditI never realized how quickly we go through our supplies. If I'd thought we couldn't last the month, I- I have some, uh, personal stores. I'll distribute them while you finish here. As a gesture of good faith.Kahrin WekI never thought I'd see anyone put the righteous fear into him like that. Good job, and thank you. But there may be something else, too. |

SogantiRemember me? Agent Soganti with the Republic Customs Office. I have some questions about Beryl Thorne.VoidhoundI'm busy right now.SogantiThis won't take long, and it's not a request. I suspect Thorne is smuggling relics, and I think I know how she's doing it. What I lack is proof. I need someone to step forward and testify so I can arrest her. I'm looking for an honest citizen, Captain.VoidhoundIf I see one, I'll let you know.SogantiThat's funny. Really.VoidhoundBeryl's a good person. She's not doing anything wrong.SogantiIf I catch you covering for her... well, let's not consider the ugly implications. I'm authorized to pay a generous sum for any lead resulting in an arrest. Think about what's best for you. Are you absolutely sure you don't know anything about Beryl Thorne's criminal activities?VoidhoundTyrodall is the real smuggler, Agent Soganti.SogantiThorne's partner? What do you have to back up that accusation?VoidhoundI saw Tyrodall running with a bunch of scavengers. They were stealing Republic supplies.SogantiI heard the scavengers were raiding our excavation. And that Devaronian's alleged "death" always seemed a little convenient.... Sounds like I might be wrong about Thorne. Unfortunately, I may never be able to verify your story. I'm afraid that means no reward.VoidhoundBut think of all the time and money you'll save by not chasing the wrong people.SogantiFair point. I'll transfer some credits to you from my discretionary account. Buy yourself a drink on me. Goodbye, Captain. Let's go, men. |

Beryl ThorneDidn't expect to see you again. What's the occasion, Captain?VoidhoundRepublic Customs is onto you. I kept them off your back - for now.Beryl ThorneYou didn't have to come warn me, but you did. Where I come from, the best friends are the ones who lie for you. Guess you're a better friend than I thought.VoidhoundGlad you finally see I'm not your enemy.Beryl ThorneMe too, and I won't forget it. Been a while since anyone stood up for me. Feels like I'm always on my own.Argo (AR-G0)What am I, Mistress Beryl? Spare parts?Beryl ThornePipe down, Argo. The captain knows what I mean. Right?VoidhoundWe're just friends, right?Beryl ThorneSure, of course. What did you think I meant? Because I didn't mean that. I want you to have this. Saved me more times than I can count. Hope it does the same for you.VoidhoundI'm glad we're parting as friends.Beryl ThorneRisha doesn't deserve a partner like you. Watch your back, all right? I'll get off Taris while the getting's good. I know Argo's ready.Argo (AR-G0)You have no idea, Mistress Beryl.Beryl ThorneThanks for everything, Captain. |

Corso RiggsBeryl needs to clear out of here. That agent won't give up.VoidhoundI don't want Beryl getting caught.Corso RiggsMe neither. She's one of the good guys. We should drop by her place on our way to Zone Zero. It's the least we can do. |

RoksurWhat the- ? Who the- ? How'd you- ?VoidhoundNot big on completing sentences, are you?RoksurYou're just- I can't believe- you're not supposed to be here!VoidhoundLet me guess, you're Skavak's mercenaries? You are one ugly pile of scrap, aren't you?RoksurHow do you- we're supposed to be- never mind how you know! How dare- what do you- this is first-rate battle armor! We've been through ten kinds of pain getting to this vault. And not to watch you open it first. Skavak, you there? You want to see this, boss. We're at the vault, but we're not alone.SkavakToo perfect. I love it when everything comes together like this. How's life treating you, Captain? You enjoying my ship and all my stuff? What about that two-faced Risha?VoidhoundI'm having the time of my life. She says "hello." We're doing great, thanks.SkavakAw, too bad it's over now. Still owe you for that mess on Coruscant. You have any idea the grief I'm taking? I could kill everybody who cracks a joke, but that's a lot of work. So, why don't you just die, already?VoidhoundStop taking yourself so seriously.SkavakA man's reputation is everything. If I don't take myself seriously, who will? Roksur, I want you and the boys to spare no effort killing my friend. Make it as painful as possible.RoksurYou heard the boss! Fry this fool! |

Risha DrayenYou got the astrogation chart, didn't you? I can tell by the look on your face.VoidhoundDid you ever doubt me?Risha DrayenIf I did, you've just made me a believer for life. You're holding a piece of underworld history. That astrogation chart belonged to an Exchange gangster named Davik Kang. Davik personally mapped dozens of hyperlanes between the Core and Outer Rim systems. He found shortcuts and hideouts all over the galaxy. He was the last great leader of the Exchange crime syndicate, and the unofficial ruler of Taris.VoidhoundHow does this chart help us find Nok Drayen's riches?Risha DrayenPatience. Good things come to those who trust their partners. Have you studied much galactic history, Captain? Interesting patterns emerge, if you pay attention. Davik Kang's criminal empire ended when this planet was destroyed. Nok Drayen's empire was born when he destroyed a planet.VoidhoundNok Drayen destroyed a whole planet?Risha DrayenTechnically, it was only a single settlement. Once upon a time, there was a pirate haven on the Outer Rim called Mandellia. Thousands of criminals lived there. One bright morning, Nok Drayen's freighter dropped out of hyperspace over Mandellia. He demanded the pirates surrender to him or die.VoidhoundWhat did Nok want with the pirates?Risha DrayenThese pirates were successful pirates. They'd acquired a lot of wealth, and Nok decided he wanted it. They weren't afraid of a lone, lightly armed freighter. The pirates figured Nok was delusional and refused to surrender. Big mistake. When the pirates sent their reply, Nok launched a single rocket at their settlement. The warhead was tipped with an Imperial nerve toxin. The entire settlement died in less than a minute. Ten thousand greedy pirates, give or take.VoidhoundWhere did Nok get an Imperial warhead?Risha DrayenHe stole it, of course. He'd been looking for a way to take down Mandellia in one shot, and that was the perfect solution. That day at Mandellia, Nok Drayen went from being a low-rent smuggler to one of the richest criminals in the galaxy. Anyway, that's how the legend goes. I should probably let you get back to work.VoidhoundIs there a plan to use that astrogation chart?Risha DrayenI'll upload these coordinates into your navicomputer. It'll take a while, though. I don't recognize some of these stars. At any rate, I'm ready to leave Taris. I'm sure we can find someplace more interesting to be.VoidhoundYou've got a bad case of wanderlust, Risha. I still have business here.Risha DrayenHey, it's one of my best qualities. Please don't take too long. The smell of Taris is getting into all of my clothes. |

From "Rona"Corso RiggsI never like asking for favors, Captain. But I think maybe we know each other well enough by now. I want to look for my cousin Rona. She's all the family I got left, and I think she should know what happened.VoidhoundYou can ask me for anything. Never worry about favors, Corso. You're part of my crew.Corso RiggsThank you, Captain. Rona came with me when I left for the brigade, but she jumped ship at the first port. All she ever wanted was to get off Ord Mantell. I thought maybe we could track her down. You'd like her. She's really the reason I'm here.VoidhoundYou two will be back together before you can say "a vrblther's vibroblade."Corso RiggsA vrblth... vrblth... so, not that soon, then? corso_riggs: Rona was kind of our family rebel. We used to have a blast together. She liked me to run interference so her father never caught her on dates with offworlders. I remember one time, uncle came looking for Rona while she was on the shuttle pod with some Agamarian pirate. I was about twelve. I didn't know how else to distract uncle, so I started a fight. Got the whole ship confiscated. I never did find out how Rona got out of city jail.... |

WintagAchoo! Excuse me. Something in the air... the spores, I think. Name's Wintag; I'm working on the Republic Tarisian Archival Database. We call it Rep-TAD. I'm assigned - achoo! - to explore the old city myself, but I'm, ah, not handling the change of atmospheres very well. I don't suppose you'd be up for a little job exploring the ruins? We're well funded, so I can pay you for your trouble.Hero of TythonJust let us know how we can be of service.WintagThank you. Your generosity is a refreshing change.I'm talking about finding the archive set up by Taris's own government to preserve their knowledge and culture in the event of disaster. I've been working on this for years, and I believe I've finally pinpointed the location of their archive. I've tried to approach the location before, but it is positively overrun with rakghouls. I couldn't get close. If you can get past them, let my assistant know how to arrange retrieval--her constitution is stronger than mine... achoo! |

QM-35This is a restricted area. There have been no security breaches for the past... one hundred and eleven thousand, three hundred and twenty-five days. Please show your credentials to enter.Hero of TythonHave you been guarding this place for three hundred years?QM-35That is correct.Barsen'thorIs this the Taris Archive?QM-35Yes. And be aware, while I am not programmed to fight, there are numerous automated defenses in place.My programming appears to contain a contradiction. I am instructed only to open this door to a member of the Tarisian government. But when the archive was brought online, all members of the ruling government were contained within. I have received no information on their successors.VoidhoundWhat do you mean they were "contained within"?QM-35This is the ruling government of Taris, as last appointed, plus representatives of every major science and industry.MeteorTaris was destroyed. This place has been a wasteland for three hundred years. There is no government.QM-35Ah, let me update my programs... my fall-through under that condition is to open only to representatives of the Galactic Republic. Is that you?Barsen'thorYes. I am a member of the Jedi Order and Galactic Republic.QM-35Excellent. Welcome to the Taris Archive. |

Tiffan NyeI was told you might be coming. Was there anything in the archive?Hero of TythonApparently, the ancient Tarisian government thought the most important thing to preserve was... themselves.Tiffan NyeThemselves. What do you...? Do you mean literally? That's amazing! All this time, we've been working from old recordings and the occasional droid when the key to the whole planet's history is right here. I must notify the Republic. Thank you for braving the rakghouls to uncover this! |

SelroWait! Please, they've all gone silent! There's no time for me to call for help! We've lost contact with Project Quell, in the lower ground labs. It's, um, supposed to study those rakghoul creatures. They kept a whole pack of them there. The scientists wanted to study the rakghouls' behavior, try to find weaknesses we could use.MeteorSomeone approved this?SelroDoctor Zalaren was project lead. But he only took the job after checking all the security himself!Hero of TythonYou can't fight an opponent you don't understand.SelroBut what's to understand, Master Jedi? They're rakghouls. You shoot them.MeteorGive me numbers, Private. How big is this rakghoul pack?SelroI never saw them, sir, only those huge crates of food they brought in.VoidhoundSounds like an Imperial lab.SelroWait, what? No! Project Quell was just to watch the rakghouls, not do anything to them!I kept saying it was a bad idea! But I'm just a private, who cares what I think. All I know is, nobody's answering my check-ins. There was a power surge not long ago... maybe that opened the rakghoul pens. None of our scientists have come out. But if they reached the lab's panic room, they might still be alive. Please, you have to find them!MeteorDon't worry, we will.SelroHere - this code will arm Project Quell's security systems. If anyone's in the panic room, the defense droids will protect them. Just don't let your guard down. I don't know just what you'll find down there. Good luck. |

ZalarenRescue? At last. Friendly face and weapons. After so many rakghouls, most welcome.MeteorYou're one of the scientists?ZalarenDoctor Zalaren, lead of Project Quell. Apology for such inconvenience. So unacceptable. Future, rakghouls will all have shock collars. Security systems active - excellent, most excellent. We go safely. Much is owed for this. |

Hacken BergeWould you like a chance to be part of one of the great mysteries of the Republic's past? We have irrefutable proof that Revan once sheltered here, soon after returning to the Republic from the Sith. There are many tales of how Revan rescued Bastila Shan and changed galactic history, but there were smaller lives touched as well.I am Hacken Berge, historian from the Galactic Library on Coruscant. I am undertaking one of the most important historical research projects of our lifetime.Three hundred years ago, Revan was the great Jedi general of the Mandalorian Wars. He turned to the dark side but was brought back to the light by Master Bastila Shan. The outcasts of Taris lived deep below the city, where the rakghoul plague originated. Revan's journals record bringing them a cure for the plague and leading them to a secure colony called "the Promised Land." Yet we don't know if they survived.Barsen'thorAre you asking us to look for a lost colony from three hundred years ago?Hacken BergeOr any sign of what became of them. What killed them? And what might that teach us about Taris? If you are braving the wilderness anyway, keep your eyes open. My assistant is coordinating excavations. Anything you find, bring to him. Perhaps these Promised Ones left some record - something to talk to us across the ages. |

Hero of TythonYour supervisor sent us. We found out what happened to your "Promised Ones." There's no happy ending.Ashwyn TejeraI knew they couldn't have disappeared without a trace! Give me what you found. Let us learn the history of this doomed planet, so we don't repeat it. |

StromFantastic, you're back! Governor Saresh needs to speak to you right away - hold on.Leontyne SareshHow wonderful to see you again! I'm sure you're already noticing the changes your efforts have brought. Rakghoul attacks are down eighty percent in the resettlement zone, and the few we encounter are repelled more easily. Construction crews are back to work - with a bit of arm twisting - and they're developing more ambitious projects. They believe in what we're doing again - thanks to you.MeteorIt's always good to see people fired up about the Republic's work.VoidhoundNow that progress is being made, will the Republic send more resources?Leontyne SareshI'm doing my best to see that they do. But in spite of our success, we still have some serious challenges.Unfortunately, not all of the news is good. Our success has come at a price. The rakghouls we've displaced now threaten our forward expedition teams. We've endangered our most vulnerable projects. The work those teams are doing is critical to reclaiming Taris. If we don't help them, the confidence we've worked so hard to restore could die forever.Rakghoul attacks in the wilderness have reached epidemic proportions. Our expedition teams are in danger of being completely wiped out. The scientists and workers on those teams are critical to our plans to expand across Taris. If they can't finish their work, our entire project will fall apart.Barsen'thorWe won't stand by while innocent lives are at risk.MeteorAren't there security forces to protect these people?Leontyne SareshOf course. And their numbers are dwindling rapidly.Hero of TythonYour people will get the job done - you've got our word.Leontyne SareshI knew I could count on you. Everyone working in that wilderness has lost friends and comrades - they're frightened, and losing hope quickly. I need you to rekindle that hope - to show our people that no enemy is too powerful to overcome.StromThe team leads are at Brejik's Run - it was a top-notch swoop track before the Sith attacked.Leontyne SareshA speeder will take you out once you're ready. When you land, find my agent, Vealo - he'll be your guide. Hundreds of lives and millions of credits were sacrificed to bring us to this point. Do whatever it takes--our project cannot fail. |
Dialog transcript |
VealoYou can't do this, Major! The governor even sent us more help - look!JazenThe governor has sent us plenty of help already. Volunteers, mercs, even Jedi, and they're all dead or working on it. I'm not watching the body count go any higher. We're pulling out - ASAP. You want to help, help us load up for evac.VoidhoundThis work is too important to abandon.JazenThat's not your call to make.Barsen'thorIt's natural to feel afraid, Major. But don't let that blind you to hope.JazenI'm no coward, Jedi. I've got lives to save.MeteorNo need for evac, Major, sir. We can still win this.JazenI'll take your five-second tactical appraisal under advisement while we strike camp, Lieutenant.Hero of TythonDoes Governor Saresh know you're pulling out?JazenShe's not here - we are. If you want to get yourself eaten or turned into a monster, go right ahead. Anything and anyone that isn't packed when we leave is meat. Your choice. My orders are to keep these people safe. If you work a miracle and this place ends up being safe again... we'll see.VealoYou'll have to work quickly to get this place safe and running again before the major's evacuation. Maybe then he'll change his mind. Talk to any of the people here - they'll tell you what needs to be done. I just hope we're not too late.Hero of TythonDo whatever you have to, Vealo--don't let him take these people out of here.VealoI'll see what I can do. Good luck to you. |

StromWe heard the good news!BardoThe governor wishes to....Leontyne SareshThe governor wishes to congratulate you herself. You've done some truly incredible work for Taris - every last person here is in your debt.Hero of TythonWe all have a responsibility to help restore what the Sith have destroyed.Leontyne SareshStill, you've taken on a much greater responsibility than most people could. Very few people could have achieved all of this.MeteorAre there any other problems that need attention, Governor?Leontyne SareshYou've done so much already - but there is always more. I'm certain there will be many more challenges to overcome as we continue our work. But I'm also certain your heroic example will inspire everyone who works to make Taris the brightest point in the Republic. We're all proud to have had you with us. Travel safely. |

Kord MurdokM- Master Jedi! But how... there were no survivors! You... weren't part of the research team, were you? Then I gotta warn you, there's something around here that hunts Jedi. Like the mother of all rakghouls. Now I ain't no coward; I've hunted Sand Demons on Tatooine, fought Sith during the war on Coruscant. Clearing the wildlife on Taris seemed like an easy gig. But these creatures ate a whole team of Jedi for lunch! What are we supposed to do except be dessert?Hero of TythonWho are you? Why are you telling us this?Kord MurdokKord Murdok. Used to lead the Blaster Brothers mercenary company. Now I'm the only one left.Barsen'thorWhat creatures? Something attacked the Jedi?Kord MurdokSomething that makes rakghouls look downright cute and cuddly.MeteorTake it easy.Kord MurdokYou watch a dozen men in heavy armor get eaten like candy and see how calm you are! Should've known when they said the Jedi got wiped out. What am I supposed to do that half a dozen Jedi can't? I don't know if those monsters ate the Jedi and barfed up the Force, but they were using powers like I've never seen.Hero of TythonWe cannot ignore a menace on that scale.Kord MurdokYou think you can do better than the other Jedi? Be my guest. You go after those monsters, just be careful. They're smart, people-smart. And let me know what happens. So I can convince them not to send me back in.... |

Larris CozekkGet out while you can! There's nothing they can pay to make this job worth it! I hope you all have your own ship, or you'll be stuck here like the rest of us. I'm just a hired merc; figure they give us the jobs that are too nasty for the guys in uniform. Like rakghouls aren't bad enough? They need to start breeding in the middle of a blasted nuclear reactor? Makes 'em twice the size and mean.MeteorWho are you?Name's Larris Cozekk. The Republic hired us to clear this wasteland for settlement. What a joke! I went into the rakghoul warren right over that way. With two dozen men! I'm the only one who crawled out alive. They're swimming in radiation. They've mutated into monsters that don't slow down even when you blast their brains onto the wall.Hero of TythonI've yet to meet a beast that can stand up to the Force.Larris CozekkGood. Because a blaster was about as effective as a water gun.Barsen'thorThese creatures must be cleared out.Larris CozekkI couldn't agree more. As long as I'm not the one doing it. If they aren't destroyed down to the last beast, the whole settlement will be a graveyard! Once you're done - if you live, talk to Androclus Methodius there; he's heading up this task force. |
Dialog transcript |
VoidhoundOne of your mercs asked us to clean up some mutant rakghouls he couldn't handle.Androclus MethodiusWell, you certainly don't look like an ordinary group of mercenaries. Master Jedi, I am honored that you would take on such a task. Oh, Lieutenant! I didn't realize Havoc Squad was here. I would certainly have come to you first. I don't know what they're thinking, opening this place to colonization... |
Dialog transcript |
Hero of TythonThe rakghouls are dead.Kord MurdokAnd the other things? The big ones? What were they? You know what, long as they're dead, I don't give a bantha's backside. Let the Jedi figure it out. |
Dialog transcript |
Mola HaxtorThis is not a grooming behavior. That's tool use at the very least.Sadus VraalI know that and you know that, I'm just saying neither the university nor the garrison - nevermind, we have company.Mola HaxtorHi, I'm Mola Haxtor, this is Professor Vraal, we're applied xenozoologists. Could you settle something for us?VoidhoundI'm sorry... "xenozoologist"?Sadus VraalWe study alien life-forms. On Taris, that pretty much means rakghouls.Mola HaxtorCome look at this. We implanted a recording device in a rakghoul and released him. This image is from the footage of his warren. It looks like a new species of rakghoul. Taller, meaner, dominates normal raks, and when it was being recorded, it, uh...Sadus VraalIt reached over and shut the transmitter off.MeteorI didn't think rakghouls were that smart.Mola HaxtorThey may not be, but the evidence is compelling. If he were playing with a switch, he'd flick it on again. He hasn't.Sadus VraalBecause rakghouls barely use tools. They're not sentient. If these ghouls are capable of tool use, our colony defenses need to be changed. But we need the footage off our device to be sure.Mola HaxtorThis is why we need someone - you - to find our rakghoul and extract his recording device. Besides the obvious academic prestige, it is essential that the Republic find out how dangerous this new species is.Barsen'thorWe'll go.Mola HaxtorThank you. Obviously, the footage and your life are top priority. Find the rak, kill the rak, grab the camera.Sadus VraalAnd run.Mola HaxtorBe careful. It's extremely unlikely this species evolved since the bombardment. Either it was under extreme pressure to diverge... or it had help. |
Dialog transcript |
Mola HaxtorYou're back! Let's cue up that footage and see the rakghouls.Mola HaxtorCalm down, Mola. I think some thanks are in order.Mola HaxtorYes, of course. We'd never go into the warrens, even with an escort... this wouldn't have happened without you.MeteorThe swarms were pretty thick in that warren. You'll get something you can use.Mola HaxtorI'm sorry, this is a chance for a doctorate... for a significant contribution to xenozoology and the colonist effort. I got excited.Sadus VraalMola, how about phrasing it like, "Tarisian colonists probably all owe you their lives"?Mola HaxtorYou don't think that's more abstract?Sadus VraalI'll upload the footage. Let's talk after we've looked it over. |
Dialog transcript |
Mola HaxtorThe new species has a lair that looks like an ex-power plant. And it's got - get this - crude, recent construction.Mola HaxtorMola, the fact that they can build a ladder is the least of our worries. Day two, minute eleven - one of the new species pushes away the others in order to get at a food source.Mola HaxtorBut he pushes them without touching them. It's very clear, there is no contact.Sadus VraalThe new species can use the Force.Hero of TythonRakghouls know only aggression and fear. That's a recipe for the dark side.Sadus VraalThat's what we're afraid of. We're no experts in the Force, but this new species seems more psychotic than predatory.There is a widespread theory that the rakghoul plague was an artificial creation of the so-called "dark side." Thus, their evolution deviates from the standard model. But it leaves us with some disturbing possibilities.Barsen'thorThe order will want to know of this... as well as a great many scientists.Sadus VraalWe'll publish our findings soon enough, but right now we have greater concerns.MeteorGlad we didn't find this out during an attack.Sadus VraalThat was the base commander's opinion, too. And we still don't know the most critical information.VoidhoundThere's no other explanation?Sadus VraalWe're sure.Mola HaxtorWe don't know if just one of the new species is Force sensitive, or all of them. If it's all of them, the garrison is considering evacuation.Sadus VraalThis is the largest threat facing Taris. We need eyes in that rakghoul lair!Hero of TythonThis could be easier than you think. An intelligent species might try to communicate.Sadus VraalDon't think I'd take that bet.Mola HaxtorAll right. The lair you want is deep in rakghoul territory. Some of the power plant structure is still recognizable. I'll fit you with a transmitter so we can see what you see. Get close enough to film the creatures - but if one notices you, do what you have to. |

Bay-Yon SiuApproach. I am Bay-Yon Siu, of the Sanej Temple. My body perished long ago. This holocron projects my recorded personality, which we Jedi use to educate future generations.Danah JorHey! You, the one who killed the nekghoul! Open the lock, this holocron is crazy.Bay-Yon SiuCalm yourself. I am incapable of madness. Madness is internal chaos, and there is no chaos, only harmony.VoidhoundWhat did you call the dead thing?Danah JorNekghouls. He named them, not me.Hero of TythonBefore I open that door, maybe you want to tell me who's in there.Bay-Yon SiuHe is the Jedi Knight Danah Jor. He entered the warren. He sought battle, and the nekghouls... reacted.Danah JorOf course I did. Anyone could sense the darkness here. And you, old man, are the source.Bay-Yon SiuDanah misunderstands. The nekghouls became Force sensitive and activated me. I have taught them, but only to help them master themselves. Had he not invaded their territory, my lessons would have sunk in better.Danah JorAll they learned is better ways to kill. You saw it.Bay-Yon SiuThis Jedi Knight, Danah Jor, entered the warren. He sought battle, and the nekghouls... reacted.VoidhoundHow can you justify teaching predators the Force?Bay-Yon SiuHumans are predators, as are Twi'leks, Togruta and other sentients. Nekghouls, also, can choose their path.Danah JorHe keeps saying that, but he's been trying to teach them manners for years. It won't work.Barsen'thorWhy are they keeping him alive?Bay-Yon SiuThe nekghouls are currently drawing power from dark emotions.Danah JorSay it! They tear out colonists' hearts in front of me because they feed on fear and disgust.MeteorSo they've attacked colonists. Then this is no theoretical threat - they're sadistic, premeditated.Bay-Yon SiuSome Sith have done worse before choosing another path. What they do is from ignorance, not hatred. If you lived in a cave all your life, the first time you saw light it would be painful. The darkness would comfort you, and you would only go toward light again when you found the courage. That is how it is with nekghouls.Danah JorThere's hundreds of those things beneath us, by the reactor. He sees them as no threat, but they can't be allowed to live. He wishes you to use that control panel to fire the reactor and lower its shielding. That would bathe them all in radiation. It would be the mass murder of sentient creatures and make this place uninhabitable.Bay-Yon SiuRevenge is not the Jedi way, Danah. Your plan will create ruin and poison.Barsen'thorThe creatures are dangerous, but we would hear both sides.Danah JorThey were born of dark side sorcery. They cannot change.Bay-Yon SiuIt merely requires time, which I have. They cannot harm me. Leave me here with them and seek death no more.Barsen'thorTeach them, then. If they can think and choose, they can learn. Reach them if you can. We will go.Bay-Yon SiuYour trust will not be forgotten. Now free this man.Danah JorI'm free, but they live unpunished. If I can't give justice to their victims, what will I do?Hero of TythonLearn from your mistake. Return to the surface. Then meditate upon the actions that led you here.Barsen'thorReturn to the Jedi. Tell them they can't invade this place like you did.Bay-Yon SiuYes... no one can enter here in hate. They will be fed upon, as you were.Danah JorI... I will do so. Thank you for saving my life.Bay-Yon SiuYou are a remarkable person not to give in to instinct, a lesson these nekghouls must also learn. It may be generations, but what is done with the dark can be undone by the light. One day, they will walk on Taris as humans do.Sadus VraalProfessor Vraal here. We got everything recorded. Good work. We heard the plan. We'll keep watch on the site. Now, clear out of there before something hears all this talking. |

LiefurHow many teeth did you say those things have? Over three thousand? Because I think I feel every one of them.Co'overmaStop complaining; she barely grazed you. Besides, this gave us solid evidence of changes in nexu maternal behavior as a result of- You! What do you know of the plight of the endangered nexu?Hero of TythonDid some sort of creature attack your friend?Co'overmaOh, he's just my assistant.Barsen'thorDo we know you?Co'overmaI am the voice of the voiceless, protector of the nexu, the most beautiful, intelligent, adaptable-LiefurGiant, drooling cat monsters with big pointy spikes....Co'overmaLiberated zoo specimens started a thriving population here on Taris. But the sows are starting to frenzy because their pups are being stolen. Blasted scavengers!VoidhoundYou're crazy.LiefurWhat an incredibly smart thing to say. Why didn't I think of that?Co'overmaYou shut up. We're making a difference here.LiefurYeah. I eat through a tube now. That's different....Hero of TythonWhy would they go after cubs? Are nexu good eating or something?Co'overmaSome unscrupulous piles of dung think it's fun to throw helpless animals into gladiatorial pits so people can laugh while they're cut to pieces.LiefurMost of the time, the nexu win-Co'overmaI'd go after those scavengers myself, but I, uh, lost all feeling in my blaster hand--LiefurTo a nexu love bite.MeteorYou're being a little vague. I don't like it when horribly mauled people are vague with me.Co'overmaGo into the scavengers' camp and destroy the cages they're using to trap nexu. What could be simpler?LiefurNot going into the scavengers' camp and destroying the cages they're using to trap nexu?Barsen'thorWe are here to restore Taris's environment, not destroy it further.Co'overmaThank you. I knew I wasn't alone in wanting to see a thriving nexu colony.LiefurI think they ate outpost five....Co'overmaI have given all my worldly possessions to the cause of animal rights. But Liefur would be happy to pay you.LiefurI would not!Co'overmaAnd I control his accounts while he's convalescing. Just go to the scavengers' camp, to the southeast. Destroy their cages and they won't be able to trap nexu anymore.MeteorCan't say much for nexu, but we're always up for wiping out scavengers.Co'overmaPerfect. I knew I liked you.LiefurShe also likes rancors - it's not a big compliment.Co'overmaThe best thing to do is hit the scavengers' main compound. Destroy all the cages and they can't take another nexu.Barsen'thorHow can it be right to take the lives of sentients in defense of mere beasts?Co'overmaSentients build cities, destroy planets, wipe out entire species. They don't need anyone to stand up for them.LiefurExcept when they're being snacked on by nexu.Co'overmaThese scavengers spend their whole lives tearing helpless babies from their loving mothers-LiefurNexu mothers eat their young.Co'overmaIf you want to help, you could go to the main scavenger camp and destroy the cages they're using to trap nexu. |
Dialog transcript |
Co'overmaWell, did you do it? Did you strike a blow for nexu everywhere?LiefurOddly easier than striking a blow against nexu....Co'overmaTell me how it went.Hero of TythonYour nexu pups are safe. And we took care of the scavengers.Co'overmaAh! Because of your efforts, future generations can enjoy the magnificent sight of a nexu stalking its prey through the Tarisian swamps...LiefurProbably human prey...Co'overmaNexu attacks should drop dramatically now that they're no longer defending their cubs. Thank you.LiefurAny chance of changing our plans to focus on saving the rare Tarisian bark beetle? |

WellerCommander. Commander! Damn! Who are you? What's happened here?VoidhoundThey seem to be... eaten. It looks like rakghouls are what happened here.MeteorI'm Havoc Squad, agent. I was hoping you could tell me what happened.WellerHavoc Squad! Oh, thank goodness. You're the best there is.This whole thing... it's all wrong. This wasn't supposed to happen! How did I get stuck cleaning up the Republic's old messes? These men were here to deactivate bombs that the Republic gave to a Taris street gang three hundred years ago during the Sith occupation. The bombs were meant to empower a revolt - but the Sith killed that idea when they decided to destroy the planet. The holos say they were trying to prevent the Jedi Bastila Shan from escaping. Typical Sith overkill.Hero of TythonAnd the bombs? What happened to the bombs?WellerAs we learned the hard way - the bombs survived. We didn't realize that the bombs withstood the planet's destruction until one of our scientific expeditions was inadvertently blown up. I don't know who I angered, but it fell to me to ensure that the remaining bombs were deactivated. These commandos were my last shot. Please, you've survived out there, you have to help me.MeteorOf course.WellerThank you - you'll be saving lives, not to mention my job. |
Dialog transcript |
WellerThe last of the active bombs just disappeared from the grid. I- I can't thank you enough.Hero of TythonWe're honored.WellerYou've saved countless lives, and for that, I'm grateful. |

Tarkos SundListen here, all you blaster-wielding frontier fighters! Sund Technologies is the best provider of wartime technology the Republic has. Now, I'll tell ya, there are some very violent creatures out there - rakghouls, nexu- I have the injuries to prove it. But when there's work to be done and credits to be made, Sund Tech doesn't rest, and neither should you. What I am offering is a high-paying technological recovery operation that will revolutionize the Republic's work here on Taris.VoidhoundIt's good to be dedicated to your work, but this seems like a strange place to look.Hero of TythonWhat kind of technology are you researching here on Taris?Oh, the usual - the kind that makes me filthy and disgustingly rich. No, no, I'm kidding.VoidhoundTrust me - you'll be lucky if you dig up a rusty can opener in this dump.Tarkos SundRusty can opener? That's a good one. I'll have to remember that one.MeteorThis is no place for civilians.Tarkos SundI'm no ordinary civilian. I'm a businessman, a man of the galaxy. And, if I may say so, a brilliant - and handsome - inventor.Barsen'thorIn other words, you're a profiteer.Tarkos SundLike that's a bad thing? People expect companies to be profitable, but a person who profits is called a profiteer. I happen to know that three hundred years ago some enterprising swoop racers got their hands on a revolutionary engine accelerator. And I thought, here's the Republic struggling to reclaim Taris because of bad conditions and poor transportation - and the solution's right here! All they need is someone to transform that accelerator into the kind of innovative high-efficiency transportation Sund Technologies is known for.MeteorHave you had any luck recovering it?Tarkos SundWell, there has been a little bit of a - minor - setback.Hero of TythonWas it the usefulness or the credits that occurred to you first?Tarkos SundMoney, pah. It's the thrill - can you imagine how fast a speeder would be with that accelerator attached? Problem is the old swoop tracks are crawling with beasts - beasts that nearly chewed my leg off. I'm not going to say I've overreached myself here, but I'm not really the fighting kind. I could use some help finding the accelerator.VoidhoundWill you pay?Tarkos SundOne up-front finder's fee. No royalties. A man's got to turn a profit somewhere. I'll throw in some genuine Sund tech if you like. Just head out to the old tracks and scan the old bikes. If you can clear out the beasts so we can salvage the accelerator when you're done, even better. |
Dialog transcript |
Tarkos SundThere are two things that would really make my day right about now - an Alderaanian brandy, or news that you found the accelerator and cleared the track. One or the other. I'm not picky.VoidhoundThe track's clear, and we found the accelerator.Tarkos SundYou did good work. I appreciate it. Sund Tech appreciates it. The Republic appreciates it. Here you go. Don't spend it all in one place - I hear there's a superfast speeder hitting the market in ten to twelve months. |

BaileyThree... two....FerronDamn it! Shut it off! Shut it off! Everyone okay?BaileyJust a few burns. I'm- ah! I'm sorry, sir. We didn't get anything.Hero of TythonThat looked like a nasty shock. You should see a medic.BaileyYes, thank you. I'll do that, Master Jedi.MeteorBuck up, soldier. Just be glad you're still alive.BaileyI'm okay, sir. No need to worry about me.FerronWe're supposed to get the old city computer systems back online. My team's been soldering hardware for weeks.ImaniProblem is, some of the power systems are still operational. We keep hitting electrical surges, someone's going to get killed.FerronEngineering Team Gamma was supposed to find the generators and set them to emergency mode - but that ain't happening now.VoidhoundGamma can't do the job?ImaniNot without a lot bigger guns than we've been issued.MeteorDon't tell me - the friendly Taris wildlife is causing problems?ImaniThat's what they keep telling us.FerronYou want the Republic to stay on the planet, the reconstruction needs to move forward. Right now it's not. The generators are outside the safe zone. Area's crawling with rakghouls and prowlers. Until someone regulates the power, my team can't do a thing. I'm sure you've got your own problems - but if you can lend a hand, don't be shy. |
Dialog transcript |
FerronHow's it looking, Imani?ImaniPower readings are stable, sir. No reason we can't go in.FerronThe power generators are reset... and it's you we have to thank, am I right?Hero of TythonIt was the least we could do. Your team's taking a risk out here, too.FerronYou got my thanks, at any rate. We should get back to it. We lost time, and there's still a long way to go before systems integrity is restored.ImaniPleasure working with you, sir! |

MeroptaIf you're here from Republic Command, don't worry, we got the message. It's too dangerous. And if you're from the union, same thing. None of my men are working as long as those tremor maws are in the lake.MeteorI don't know what a tremor maw is, but it doesn't sound good.MeroptaSwamp lizards the size of a speeder. We tried to build a pipeline to the lake. You try and get the colonists a little fresh water and what happens? Deaths, dismemberments and your project shut down. Some colonies and survey camps are running out of fresh water, so we were building a pipeline from the north lake down to them. But the machinery attracted tremor maws. One minute we're enjoying the scenery, and the next, screaming and death and the project shut down. We exploded a few demolition charges to scare the maws off, but it just makes them want to fight. Our blasts were more like bait.MeteorThe Republic outpost has soldiers. Can they spare a few to kill these things?MeroptaYou'd think, but they're the ones who told us to wait. They're exploring options. Flying water in, filters, moisture vaporators, it's nonsense. The pipeline's our only long-term bet. Everything else, colonists can't afford. They'll start deserting soon. No money, no colony. It's frustrating because the charges were already laid. You could flush out every tremor maw in that lake if you wanted. What I wouldn't give for someone to just shoot those lizards. It's not like we ever removed the bait.Hero of TythonThis colony won't fail on our watch. We'll let you put down that pipe safely.MeroptaThe demolition charges are in the lake. Set them to go and get way, way back. The blast will be big. Obviously, when you key them in to blow, don't walk - run out of the blast radius. That stuff is construction-grade detonite. Then get ready for the fight of your life. Maws can bite through a gripper crane, let alone humanoids like us. |
Dialog transcript |
MeroptaThe lake team said they heard you at work. Given the size of those blasts, I'm surprised we didn't down here. Any problems detonating those bombs?VoidhoundNo trouble. It's more fun than trying to defuse them.MeroptaI wouldn't know. Sounds like your life is a bit more exciting than mine. But there's good news. I told the Republic the swamp is clear, and they instantly gave the go. No more bureaucratic boondoggle. Now, we'll double-time it until the pipeline is done. Those colonists are going to feel a lot better when they can afford to shower. |

BhoennAh, an intrepid explorer. Good to see there's still folks in the Republic who aren't scared away from our little colony.MyahhTh- they're coming! At the door - the door! We have to get out! Alert the base! Everyone needs to evacuate.MeteorIs the base under attack? What's going on?Barsen'thorWho are you?BhoennThat's Myahh, former first lieutenant of the Endar Rebirth, the first scout vessel sent here to evaluate the possibility of recolonization. Ship disappeared five years ago. Then three days ago, Myahh comes staggering out of one of the collapsed buildings outside the base. He lived out there, no weapons but what he made from salvage, holding his own against the rakghouls, all that time.Hero of TythonWhen pressed beyond endurance, a man can find great reserves within.BhoennThose boys know they're part of the battle to keep the Sith out of our galaxy. They're hard to keep down. Myahh swears there are other survivors trapped in those ruins, tormented by rakghouls. Upper brass, sitting on Ord Mantell, say it's too dangerous to send in a rescue unit, so those boys'll die to spare some others the risk of it.MeteorFive years... those soldiers should not be left to suffer another day.BhoennI was hoping you'd jump on the chance. I'd have been right there with you back when I had no stripes to wear.MeteorAre the brass right, or are they jumping at shadows?BhoennNo, they've got it right. We go in there, we'll lose three men for every one we save. Just beyond the base, thickest part of the city collapsed in on itself. Rakghouls everywhere, tunnels so tight there's nowhere to run. But I say, to deep space with logic! These good Republic boys deserve better! Up for a little adventure?VoidhoundWe'll do it. If it was me, I'd want to know the Republic would come after me.MyahhY- you'll help? They're in the ruins. The city... it's all collapsed. Y- you can't see the ghouls, just the yellow eyes... and the smell....BhoennAnyone you find, bring them here. We'll make sure they finish their days in comfort. |
Dialog transcript |
BhoennMedic! Don't worry. You're safe now. We'll give you something to help you sleep. You did good. Myahh says that's all that's left alive. If it wasn't for you, every one of those men would have turned rakghoul. I wish I could have been there!MeteorSmoking ghoul corpses left and right. Tell those scouts they've earned their retirement.BhoennAh, to be ten years younger....Hero of TythonDo you think those scouts will ever recover?BhoennNot like they used to be, but they'll get the best care we can give.Barsen'thorWe felt their anguish and sought them out in the thick of the rakghoul nests.BhoennWe're... lucky to have you. When those boys wake up, I'll tell them a real Jedi Master thought their lives were worth saving.Soon as those boys pass quarantine, we'll get them to a real hospital. Whatever they need, it's theirs on the Republic's tab. And I'll tell them it's all thanks to you. |

SenaruPlease, kind friends. Please, a moment of your precious time is all I ask. I came here seeking help for my home. A small moon, so rich in life. Now it is all threatened. A chemical freighter crashed, spilled hrucium-5 on the surface. Already our wildlife is suffering, and the hrucium-5 is beginning to spread.Barsen'thorHrucium-5 is highly toxic. If it passes into the atmosphere, you could lose half the plant life on your world.SenaruSo you see, friend Jedi, my need is very great.VoidhoundSorry, We're not scientists.SenaruI understand. But your skills as a warrior are what I need. The flora and fauna of Taris is remarkable. I hoped that, by studying it, I could find a way to adapt our ecosystem artificially. But Taris is so dangerous. Scavengers, hunters... I cannot take the scans I need. Meanwhile, the toxicity back home grows ever greater. Soon it will be too late.Hero of TythonWe want to help out.SenaruI need readings on the local wildlife. For one like you, it will be no trouble, if you are careful. Here - my scanner. When you have the data, take it to Representative Lessah, at the Kanner Outpost. She promised to see it sent to my people. And please, hurry. |
Dialog transcript |
LessahIsn't that Senaru's scanner? Well, well. He got his data after all. I'll see it's sent to his people. This'll look great on my diplomatic resume. I might even get transferred somewhere civilized - I knew helping Senaru would pay off.VoidhoundThat's why you helped him? An entire world is in danger, and you're using it to advance your career?LessahWell, no, I... there's no reason not to find the positive in a bad situation!MeteorDiplomacy means supporting others in their misfortune, not taking advantage of it.LessahI'm not... taking advantage, I.... Here. This is the Republic's stipend for... compassionate environmental assistance. I... it's all yours. Thank you. |
Dialog transcript |
MackYou boys make me sick. Did you think Taris was beaches and pretty girls? Working on your tan? We came here to make credits! But the credits aren't here, are they? They're out there!VoidhoundWhat's the matter?MackThese lazy slugs call themselves "mercenaries," but they seem to have developed an allergic reaction to getting paid. We just gotta take a few scans at the sliding plate so the Republic knows it's safe to rebuild. How hard is that? But no, all the retired soldiers, security officers and bounty hunters in the Republic are no match for readouts on structural damage!Matthew HerralThat place is crawling with those rakghoul things - you saw what happened to Cal.MackYou're really gonna pass up the most lucrative opportunity of your careers on account of some oversized rats?MeteorWe'll take the mission.MackI knew you'd have the guts. But then again, it'd be hard to find another group as weak-kneed as this lot. If these boys can't grow up, they're in the wrong business. But I'm sick of waiting around. If the money on offer is any indication, the Republic needs this data badly, and I ain't leaving empty-handed. And don't let all this talk of rakghouls scare you. They're blaster fodder. |
Dialog transcript |
MackWell what do we have here? Back and with all your limbs? Not frothing at the mouth? Hey, you lazy slugs, pay attention while I hand your pay over to someone more deserving. You did good work. These scans'll be a big boost to the rebuilding effort, and I can finally get these boys back home to their mommas. |

Devon RaceYou're a Jedi! It's- I didn't know anyone else was out here. I'm Devon Race. I've nearly finished my training and have permission from Master Silvarte to be on Taris - exploratory mission to the old Jedi Enclave.Barsen'thorYou look hurt.Devon RaceI'm a little scraped up, but I can keep going. I have a mission. Centuries back, the Jedi had an outpost on Taris. They left shortly before the world burned - I'm here to recover anything left behind. But between the fauna and the looters, I haven't had much luck. We were hoping for holocrons, diaries - Jedi history! In truth, we knew it was a long shot.Hero of TythonLet us join the search.Perhaps. I am a bit... overwhelmed, and we need to find everything we can to help build a future for the order. Master Silvarte warned me that any artifacts left behind would be hidden. Protected. Sealed in ferrocrete pillars or disguised as statues. Our tools are lightsabers and blasters. If you can cut away the outer layers, find anything from the enclave in these ruins... bring it to me. I'd be grateful. |
Dialog transcript |
Devon RaceGood to see you again. Incredible. You actually went through the ruins? Here it is - the history of the Jedi on Taris. Artifacts I don't even recognize. Exactly what we need to rebuild the order.Hero of TythonWonderful.Devon RaceYou don't know what this means. I'll get them back to the Masters unharmed, I swear. Thank you, my friend. Thank you. And may the Force be with you. |
Dialog transcript |
PlennidIf you know what's good for you, don't set foot outside this spaceport. It's practically a war zone. I'm Minister Plennid with the Republic's Diplomatic Corps. I was almost killed out there! The Kintan Kings gang controls this part of Nar Shaddaa. They're violent and well-armed Niktos who hate the Republic. The gang attacked me right out on the street, in full view of everyone. My bodyguards were dead before I knew what was happening.MeteorWhere can we find these killers?PlennidThey're still outside. But I have worse news. The murders aren't the worst of it. My bodyguards all carried Republic passcodes - and now the gangsters have them! With those passcodes, the Kintan Kings can slip right through our security. We'll be defenseless.MeteorDon't worry, we'll get those security passcodes back.PlennidI hope you and your friends scare the scales off those degenerates. When you get the passcodes, deliver them to Ambassador Averdon on the Promenade. |
Dialog transcript |
AverdonThis is a disaster, Bareesh. How can I deal with enemies who don't negotiate?Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillThe Kintan Kings only understand one language, Ambassador.MeteorMinister Plennid sent us. We have your stolen security passcodes.AverdonI couldn't believe our luck when he sent word you were coming. You have my gratitude. I'm Ambassador Averdon. This is Bareesh Fenn'ak Torill, one of the system's most prominent business leaders. Welcome.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillI am honored to meet such brave defenders of the Republic. Make yourself comfortable. Any friend of the ambassador's is a friend of mine.Barsen'thorWe were starting to wonder if the Republic was all alone here.AverdonFar from it. Bareesh has been a great friend to the Republic in a dark time.MeteorBring us up to speed.AverdonI'm afraid we're at war with the underworld. My mission is to establish strong Republic ties on Nar Shaddaa. We need its technological assets to defend ourselves against the Empire. Nar Shaddaa's leaders sold us an entire sector to use as our base of operations. Unfortunately, it's overrun with Kintan King gangsters. The gang considers us invaders. They've turned our sector into a war zone. The Kintan Kings want us out of their territory - and they're winning. A Jedi who was helping us was found butchered in the open street. Those gangsters did horrible things to him.VoidhoundNar Shaddaa isn't known for its law-abiding citizens. No offense, Hutt.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillNegative propaganda, I assure you. Most of our citizens are decent people.Hero of TythonYou're sure it was gangsters who killed the Jedi?AverdonYes and no. Reliable information is scarce.Barsen'thorThe Jedi Masters on Tython need to hear about this.AverdonI'm not authorized to contact Tython, but we have done some investigating.VoidhoundIt takes more than a few cheap thugs to kill a Jedi.AverdonThe Jedi was young, but very strong. We believe this gang is indeed unique. We also believe the gang's leader is more than a mere criminal. We're not certain, but there were strange cuts and markings on his body. Almost ritualistic. It's an inconceivable tragedy that such a strong young Jedi could die so easily.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillWe hear rumors that the gang's leader is a Morgukai.AverdonMorgukai are a Nikto cult - Jedi hunters trained to resist the Force.Barsen'thorWe've been trained to deal with Sith, Ambassador.AverdonI assume the dead Jedi was, too. The gangsters' attack on Minister Plennid was a diversion. Their true goal was hijacking a Republic military freighter carrying cybernetic combat implants.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillThe implants were my goodwill gesture to the Republic. They are finest-quality technology.AverdonWe don't need Kintan Kings with enhanced speed and strength. When you have the implants, take them to an arms merchant named Nurkolas. He secretly works for Bareesh.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillNurkolas will provide a fortified base of operations for you. He has many things you will find useful. Now go - bring those Kintan King scum to their knees! Er, for the good of the Republic....AverdonThe hijackers flew the freighter to a "chop shop" to turn the ship into spare parts. They're unloading it as we speak. hatever you plan to do, do it quickly. |

GozubbDrooga the Hutt is insane! Absolutely mad! What kind of lunatic takes his party into the Nikto Sector? I stepped off his pleasure barge for one moment to conduct a simple financial transaction, and now I can't rejoin his party! I value my life too much to risk it among those thieves and murderers in the Nikto Sector. Gangsters everywhere. Battles in the streets. Drooga's gambling with everyone's lives down there! I'll just wait here. Blast Drooga!VoidhoundYou're quite a coward.GozubbI'm a businessman. The best deals are happening on that pleasure barge, but they aren't worth dying over. If you're going to chase that deranged Hutt's party, I suggest you settle your affairs, first. Blasted Drooga... I never even got a drink! |
Dialog transcript |
NurkolasWelcome to Nurkolas Arms. If it shoots, stabs, fries or detonates, I stock it. I see you've got Bareesh's combat implants. He'll be a happy Hutt. What are mercenary spacers like you doing for the Republic's top ambassador?MeteorWhen there's fighting to be done, it falls to people like us.NurkolasWe all have our burdens. I'm sure your friends understand what I mean. I'm more the neutral type, myself. But people like you keep people like me in business - and I really appreciate it. One thing's for sure, the Mountain won't be happy when he finds out what you did. That's what they call the Kintan Kings' leader, by the way- "the Mountain." Three guesses why.MeteorHe must be very tall.NurkolasWookiees are tall. The Mountain ducks when clouds pass overhead.VoidhoundGangsters like to sound tougher than they are.NurkolasIn this case, it's no exaggeration. Saw him once. Wish I hadn't. Just figured you'd want to know what you're up against. Only thing the Kintan Kings fear is the Mountain. He's everywhere, all the time.Hero of TythonPeople who rule by fear always have a vulnerable spot.NurkolasJust be careful that you don't trigger an avalanche when you hit the Mountain's weakness. All I know is, the Mountain has a reputation for staying on top of things. Take care you're not one of them. You just made the top of the Mountain's to-kill list. I'm concerned for your well-being.Say... since we're being so cordial and sharing, maybe we can discuss a little side business? Those combat implants are first-rate merchandise. We could score a sweet profit selling a few on the black market.Hero of TythonThat technology is a gift from Bareesh to the Republic.NurkolasI'm not saying we take them all. Besides, Bareesh has other gifts.VoidhoundDo you make a habit of cheating your employer?NurkolasOf course not - that would get me killed. I only profit when opportunity knocks. Fifty-fifty split of the profits, with your share paid in advance, 'cause I'm a generous guy. I'll tell Bareesh the Kintan Kings used some combat implants before you raided them. He'll believe me, long as you don't disagree. What Bareesh doesn't know won't hurt him - and it'll make us richer. Sound good?Barsen'thorI'm not making any deals with you.NurkolasTake it easy. I was only kidding. Hey look - Bareesh is on the holo.... |
Dialog transcript |
NurkolasWe got back all those combat implants, boss.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillWonderful news. Please leave us, Nurkolas. |
Dialog transcript |
Kaleesh WarriorHalt, you Hutt-slaying scum! The Cartel demands that you pay for your crimes!BowdaarNo words, bone-lizard. Just fight.Kaleesh WarriorListen to the Wookiee boast of his murders! This monster has slaughtered entire Hutt clans, but his reign of terror ends! Before he dies, he will know true fear! We Kaleesh warriors swear it by our blood!VoidhoundThat Wookiee's not afraid of you, pal.Kaleesh WarriorKeep back, you idiot! That beast will tear your head off, just like he did to Nor'dro the Fearless! His claws are stained with the entrails of many! His bloodlust can't be satisfied!Corso RiggsMaybe we should stay outta this, Captain. That three-meter fur ball looks pretty fierce.BowdaarDon't fear. You're not my enemy.Kaleesh WarriorWarriors! Kill these scum! |
Dialog transcript |
Corso RiggsWhoa, Captain. Don't get so close. Thing's liable to tear your arms off and beat you to death with them.VoidhoundThere's nothing to be afraid of.Corso RiggsTell that to the reptiles littering the floor.BowdaarThat was a good fight. Bowdaar honors you. I fought bone-lizards before. Their smell is worse than their bite.VoidhoundWhat's your story, Bowdaar?BowdaarI fight to pay debts. The Hutt chooses my enemies until the debt is paid.DroogaWookiee! Get back to your cage. I'll call you again when I want you.BowdaarI'm going now. Goodbye. |
Dialog transcript |
DroogaWhat have you done, fool? You ruined everything! The Wookiee fights alone, or there's no drama!VoidhoundDrama? What do you mean, "drama"?DroogaYou spoiled my pre-meal entertainment, you ignorant, half-wit spacer!VoidhoundI don't believe in unfair fights.DroogaDid I ask what you believe? This is my party, idiot! I decide what is fair! This was not your fight! You weren't even invited to my party! I paid for the best Kaleesh warriors on Nar Shaddaa to face my adorable pet Wookiee. This colossal battle was to whet the appetite, and I am unsatisfied! What do you have to say for yourself?VoidhoundLife's full of disappointments, roly-poly.DroogaHow dare you insult me! I would feed you to my gundark, but I'm starving it for a special occasion. A shame the fight ended so quickly. Those Kaleesh were better actors than warriors. I'm glad I don't have to pay them. And you, spacer, I know why you've come. You waste your time. I don't need your beast anymore!VoidhoundYou made a deal, Drooga.DroogaNo! I made an offer. And now I take back that offer.VoidhoundI'm sure someone else will want this rare specimen.DroogaBut another buyer won't have that starship engine you desire. I only wanted your male shanjaru to complete a set. But thieves stole my female shanjaru! If I can't have a complete set, I don't want that male you brought. Go away!VoidhoundLet's negotiate.DroogaNo deals! The eighteenth course is about to be served! If you have more words, say them to my servant Ga'ram. Maybe he'll take pity and throw you some scraps. |
Dialog transcript |
Ga'ramWe overheard your conversation with the Great Feastmaster. Drooga can be most fickle. You have our deepest sympathies, we are sure.VoidhoundIs there anything "we" can do about it?Ga'ramIf you seek to conclude your business with Drooga, use his fickle nature to your advantage. Returning Drooga's female beast would rekindle his interest in yours. We have observed the Great Feastmaster in past dealings. Drooga is always most captivated by what is easily at hand.VoidhoundI don't even know what happened. How am I supposed to find this thing?Ga'ramLook here. This holorecording was left by the thieves who stole Drooga's female shanjaru. It may interest you....HoloWhen will the Hutts learn that nature's creatures are not for their sick entertainment? So long as innocent beasts are victimized by the decadent slave masters of Nar Shaddaa, we will fight! Freedom for all life!Ga'ramThe woman continues like this for another three hours. We use her recording to lull ourselves to sleep at night.VoidhoundShe's the thief? That's who stole Drooga's beast?Ga'ramThe woman is a wealthy Republic Senator's daughter. She violently opposes all who "abuse" wild creatures. She spends her father's wealth hiring mercenaries to fight her war. They maintain a base nearby.VoidhoundSounds like I should give these mercenaries a visit. Maybe I'll find that woman or the creature she stole at the mercenary base?Ga'ramWe are sure we do not know, but perhaps those mercenaries do. Should you discover any useful leads, bring them to us. We will happily assist your search.Drooga (from afar)Ga'ram! Move my pleasure barge! Take our guests someplace interesting!Ga'ramWe will dock this pleasure barge at these coordinates. Find us there. Good hunting... |
Dialog transcript |
AzalieI can't believe what you did to those Kaleesh. You're the bravest person I've ever met. This party has been a lot more exciting since you walked in. My name's Azalie. My father owns a corporation on Corellia. He and Drooga are partners.VoidhoundWhat kind of business are they in?AzalieSomething to do with starships, I think? All I know is, father needed to be here. Father asked me to pay my respects to Drooga. This is my first time here. I thought Nar Shaddaa would be more glamorous. I haven't met anyone I'd consider pleasant company until now. I hope I see you again later. |

YedduThis sector used to be a good place to live. Quiet. Clean. Safe. My family has lived here for too many generations. Then the swoop gangs took over. They terrorize the shopkeepers. Attack innocent civilians on the streets. Destroy our homes. And they slaughter anyone brave enough to stand up to them, leaving him bleeding in the gutter while they roar off on their swoop bikes.Barsen'thorThey killed someone you cared about, didn't they?YedduMy brother. We ran a little shop together. The swoop gangs demanded we give them protection money. My brother refused to pay the swoop gangs off. He said, "Yeddu, we must take a stand!" They killed him for his defiance. I swore I would avenge him.Barsen'thorYou're not thinking clearly. You seek closure in your brother's death, but throwing your life away is not the answer.YedduYou don't have to worry. I have a plan, but I'm too much of a coward to act on it. I bought some EMP immobilizers from the black market. The blast will fry the circuits of any swoop bike caught in the explosion. The swoops are parked in the streets near the gang's base. But I'm too afraid to go there and plant the immobilizers. What if they see me?Hero of TythonLeave this to us.YedduYou would consider helping me with this? A stranger? I... I don't know what to say. Thank you. Take these EMP immobilizers. Place them near the gang's swoop bikes. When you set them off, the blast will fry all the circuits. We'll see how tough those gangs are when they can't just fly away on their precious swoops! Be careful. With or without the immobilizers, the gang will not be happy to see you. I'll wait here. Come back and see me when you're done. |
Dialog transcript |
VoidhoundThat swoop gang won't be causing any more trouble.YedduI heard what happened - news travels quickly in this sector. They attacked you, but you fought them off! You have avenged my brother and freed us from the tyranny of the swoop gangs! The residents of this sector will have a better future because of you. |
Dialog transcript |
Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillYour attack on those gangster scum reaped unexpected benefits. They revealed a new den of evil to us! We intercepted a holomessage ordering the Kintan Kings to protect their slave market. They're selling kidnapped Republic citizens!Barsen'thorThese criminals are truly depraved.AverdonIt's much worse than you think, Master Jedi.VoidhoundIs the news reliable?AverdonOur people have been disappearing for weeks. I thought they were being murdered, but now we know better. Some of the kidnapping victims are Force-sensitive children who were passing through here on their way to the Jedi. I shudder to think what those criminal scum have in mind for the children.Hero of TythonNothing good, I'm sure.AverdonThe Sith Empire is always looking for new children to train on Korriban. Bareesh believes the gang's slave market is in the ruins of an old casino.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillIt used to be a very fine establishment. The Kintan Kings do not deserve such splendor!Barsen'thorYour priorities are suspect.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillWhat have I said to earn your mistrust? I'm deeply concerned for the children.AverdonThere's no need to discuss this further. Please hurry - free our people before it's too late. |
Dialog transcript |
The Mountain BrothersYou anger the Mountain, Republic scum. You provoke a fury you will not survive. When the Mountain rages, the ground shakes and the skies turn black!VoidhoundAny man who talks about himself in the third person is clearly an idiot.The Mountain BrothersYou don't understand the Mountain, stupid spacer - but you will. Come to these coordinates. If you do not, thousands will die.MeteorThat's an empty threat.The Mountain BrothersYou gamble with innocent lives. The Kintan Kings have hidden explosives all over your Republic spaceport - but the detonator is here. Come and face the Mountain, or scores of your people will perish in smoke and flame.MeteorYou just signed your own death mark, you cowardly pile of filth.The Mountain BrothersThe Mountain will see you in hell, Republic scum. |

Jatta KuumFinally! Someone who might be able to make a difference. My name's Jatta Kuum - I'm with the Strategic Information Service. You've heard about the various separatist movements, yes? Discontents trying to break away from the Republic? Lately, it's gotten serious. Dozens of possible mini-wars within the Republic.The separatists are growing and becoming more violent every day. Most of their funding comes from right here. A local crime lord - Kata the Hutt. He funnels the credits he makes from illegal pit fighting to Ord Mantell and other hot spots. The separatists use it to plan their next atrocity.MeteorWhy don't you just lock him up?Jatta KuumWith his kind of money, he'd be out in hours. We want something more... permanent.VoidhoundSo what's the plan?Jatta KuumWe take out his pit fighting business, he won't be able to fund the separatists anymore. I tried once before, but things got too hot. Now I'm being watched. That's why I need you. All Kata's important files - contacts, money, everything - are in a vault where he holds the fights. Destroy the vault, destroy the business. It won't be easy. Guards, pit fighters, scum of the galaxy. Those guys won't fight fair. Get in there, place this mine and stand back to watch peace break out all over the galaxy. |
Dialog transcript |
Jatta KuumThe drones I had watching the warehouse picked up the explosion. You succeeded. You put Kata out of business. That's the important thing. I only wish the same could be said about the separatists. But we've put their operations back by at least a year. I'll use that time to infiltrate their operations, take them down from the inside. Thanks again. |
Dialog transcript |
The Mountain BrothersYou survived the gauntlet, Republic vermin, but now you can see.... There is no escaping the Mountain. Alone, we are deadly. Together, we are death incarnate. Five brothers. Morgukai Jedi-hunters. Kings of the underworld. Your doom.VoidhoundWhy didn't someone tell me the Mountain is five ugly freaks?The Mountain BrothersShadows and mist surround the Mountain. They part only for those about to die. The Mountain fights as one. You will die here, and for what? You throw your life away for nothing. The Republic-loving Hutt has used you. Bareesh was leader of the Kintan Kings until the Mountain drove him out. You and that ignorant ambassador are his pathetic instruments of revenge - and you have failed.Barsen'thorBareesh will answer for his lies, and you will answer for your crimes.The Mountain BrothersYour Force is powerless against us, Jedi. Your death will be slow and painful. When this is over, the Mountain will string your entrails across the whole sector. Brothers! We fight as one! |
Dialog transcript |
Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillExcellent work, my dauntless friends! I will ensure all the Mountain's explosives are recovered from your spaceport and dismantled. I am aware of what those Nikto filth revealed to you. They never found all my surveillance devices after they drove me out. So... you know I was once leader of the Kintan Kings. What will you do with this knowledge?MeteorThe Republic does not form alliances with gangsters, Bareesh. This information must be revealed to Ambassador Averdon.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillDo not be so hasty to shatter the young diplomat's illusions. What if I were no longer a gangster? I am no traitor to the Republic's cause, I assure you. Damaging my reputation is not in the Republic's best interests.When I lost control of the Kintan Kings and came to the Promenade, I discovered the greatest profits come from legitimate enterprises. I am done with crime. Let me aid the Republic's cause. Your people make excellent business partners - much better than the Empire.Hero of TythonYou're still only motivated by greed, Bareesh.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillNot completely! There's something satisfying about legitimacy. Do you know how much overhead it takes to run a criminal empire? It's ludicrous.Barsen'thorWhy should we believe you?Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillWithout my help, the Republic's mission will fail. Do you want Nar Shaddaa in the Empire's hands? If Ambassador Averdon learns of my past indiscretions, I fear it will doom our flourishing alliance.MeteorYou can't buy your way to respectability. You have to earn it.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillBlast you! Have you no sense of the greater good? If the truth must come out, I will be the one to reveal it. Ambassador Averdon and I will see you on the Promenade. |
Dialog transcript |
AverdonThe Kintan Kings are retreating, thanks to you. The Republic's citizens are finally safe. I should be happier, but Bareesh just told me some distressing news.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillI revealed my shameful past. Are you pleased with yourself? I should kill you for humiliating me! Er... but I am reformed, so I will not.VoidhoundI'm sure you still have plenty of skeletons in your cargo locker.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillYou speak nonsense while an important alliance hangs by a thread.AverdonNar Shaddaa is critical to the Republic's future, and allies are in short supply. I'll work with you, Bareesh - but I'll keep a close eye on your activities.Bareesh Fenn'ak TorillWonderful! I will never disappoint you.AverdonThank you for everything you did - especially revealing the truth. I hope my decision to trust Bareesh hasn't upset you. The truth is, I still need your help. As you're among the few people I can trust here, would you take on another matter? A local man named Ilox has requested Republic assistance in the Red Light Sector. If you find yourself there, please speak to him. You and I have much to discuss, Bareesh. Farewell, my friends. |
Dialog transcript |
From: Ambassador AverdonSubject: The Republic's relations with BareeshI must thank you again for safeguarding the Republic's interests on Nar Shaddaa from the Kintan Kings gang. I requested additional security forces to the Nikto Sector and am confident we will establish a peaceful base of operations there.Regarding your discovery of Bareesh's criminal past, the Republic has decided to limit its interactions with him until we are more confident he can be trusted. Nar Shaddaa is dangerous enough without "friends" like him. We will see how sincere Bareesh truly is about aiding the Republic. In the meantime, we will be more vigilant about our alliances. |
Dialog transcript |
IloxThe name's Ilox. I'm a freelance private investigator. We need to talk. Looks like you've got the tools and talent to handle big problems. Maybe you can help. Someone from the Republic needs to know what I've stumbled onto, in case I get "disappeared.MeteorI don't understand. Are you in some kind of danger?IloxAlmost always - but this is different. There's bad business going down at Club Ufora. Saw some Republic fleet officers go in, but they never came out. I decided to snoop around. Made it to one of the back rooms. It was full of slave cages.MeteorWho hired you to follow around those Republic fleet officers?IloxNobody. I'm just returning a favor. Republic soldiers rescued me from the Empire when I was a kid. Saved my life. I keep tabs on any Republic military that come here on shore leave. Make sure they don't get in trouble.Hero of TythonThe Republic is lucky to have a friend like you.IloxWish I could do more, but this is out of my league. Club Ufora has major security - way above normal. The guards are boosted with combat adrenals and cybernetic implants. Whatever's happening, it's worth killing to keep secret. Somebody needs to rescue those officers.MeteorNobody puts my people in a cage and gets away with it.IloxGood luck, soldier. I'm betting you can handle those thugs. Besides, you'll have the element of surprise. I've done all I can. The rest is up to you.Hero of TythonYou did the right thing, Ilox. We'll handle this.IloxMay the Force be with you. Heh... always wanted to say that. |
