Tarnis explained to the new arrivals how the superweapon ionized a planet's atmosphere, a process which disabled any ships that tried to leave and safely blockaded the planet without loss of life. He stated that it was one of the most humane weapons ever created, and was annoyed that the Jedi had objections to both the weapon's existence and the fact that they had not been told of its creation. However, Kiwiiks had a more pressing objection - the design files had been stolen, and Tarnis was seemingly unconcerned about the security risks. Tarnis brushed off her protest, stating that the files were too encrypted for anyone to understand, but Var Suthra informed the Jedi that his agents had been searching tirelessly for the files.Before Din and Kiwiiks departed to meet with Supreme Chancellor | Supreme ChancellorOrganizationGalactic Republic | Dorian Janarus | Dorian JanarusCharacterMinor Characters (TOR) | , Din ordered his former apprentice to aid the Republic agents | Strategic Information Service (SIS)OrganizationGalactic Republic (GGW, CW and GW) | in the recovery of the files. Kiwiiks also left her Padawan with the Knight and Tarnis, and she suggested that Carsen's security expertise might be useful.Read more... |
