provided them with a coordinates of Shroud's assets on the planet Tatooine. The operatives went there and started the search.
Operatives located the first data relay installed on one of the radars just outside Anchorhead and, using macrobinoculars, intercepted the messages passing - some insignificant information about Czerka

The second set of coordinates brought the operatives to the area of the Junland Chasm, where they found another relay. As soon as the operatives connected to the relay and began to monitor the data stream, they came under a surprise attack from an advanced battle droid

. The droid's attack was sharp and aggressive, and the operatives had to defend themselves. It took them a few minutes to adjust to the droid's combat tactics, and then they went on the offensive - and IR-77 began to lose ground. A few minutes later, the droid disappeared as quickly as it had appeared.
Operatives located a third transmitter, installed on the underside of a stone bridge over a canyon deep in the Twin Suns

. The operatives defeated them and continued the search.
Scanning the fourth and fifth relays went uneventful, the operatives collected data and moved on. But when they found the last one and scanned it, they heard a loud battle cry and were again attacked by a group of Tuskens. In the ensuing battle, they were nearly taken by surprise when the droid KD-24

joined the fray. It was now clear to the operatives that the droid, by emulating the Sand People's battle cry, directed the Tuskens when the operatives discovered one of the relays. It took the operatives all their skill to defeat him. Once the droid was destroyed, they were surprised to receive a holocall from the Shroud himself on their secure comlinks. He said that the operatives had no idea who they were dealing with, and warned them that no matter how much they found, they had already made a very powerful enemy. Then he ended the call.
Undeterred but wary, the operatives returned to Anchorhead and, after saying goodbye to each other, boarded their personal ships to leave Tatooine.
