Master Kote: Revan was a jedi but fell into the temptation of the dark side and became a sith.
Claw: Plus you don't act much like a jedi. I would know, I served with jedi in the clone wars.

Gwydion laughs, a short, harsh sound."What you know of Revan is mere fables and myths; ancient half-forgotten tales passed from one doddering librarian to another. I was his friend and advisor during the Mandalorian Wars. I watched as he turned on the Republic in order to unite it against the true threat, which lay hidden in the shadows. I watched as he claimed the title of Sith Lord to ensure that the Jedi would rouse themselves from their pacifistic views and become the soldiers they once were." An aura of anger emanates from Gwydion as he shifts his gaze to Commander Claw."I never claimed to be a Jedi, only that I was on good terms with them. You know nothing of the real Jedi. By your era, the Order was a mere hollow shell of itself, verging on darkness. Even the records of the original Order were long lost by then. Why is it that Yoda was unable to sense to rise of the Clone Wars? The answer is simple: The Jedi had drifted far enough from their origins that they could no longer distinguish between light and dark."

Asalla's eyes shoot open after the injection of the antidote and she gasps. She can still feel the pain from the kinrath sting but it begins to subside. Taking deep, tired breaths Asalla lays on the stretcher. She turns her head to see a shadowy figure. Uneasily, she sits up and feels nauseous. She ignores the waves of sickness and draws both of her laser pistols from their sheaths. Asalla aims the guns at the figures head and feels like she would fall over from exhaustion, but she just sits there, staring at the shadow with pistols aimed and ready to fire.

Gwydion briefly diverts his gaze to Asalla as she lies on the stretcher, aiming her blaster pistols at him. Even without seeing his eyes, she would be able to feel that he is glaring at her with stern reproach. "Put those toys away, Padawan. If I was here to fight, every single one of you would lie slain at my feet before you ever saw me."
Gwydion returns his gaze to Master Kote. "What is your name, Master Jedi?"

Master Kote looks over to Asalla and motions her to lower her pistols. A medic walks over to Asalla.
Patch: You must calm down. You might go unconscious again.
Master Kote looks again up at the shadow and speaks.
Master Kote: I am Master Kote of the former jedi order before the empire wiped us out. I wouldn't be alive if my men haven't stayed loyal to me during order 66. Neither would my Padawan.

Gwydion bows slightly in recognition to Master Kote, but not far enough to convey inferiority."Well met, Master Kote. I must say, it is odd to find a Jedi with a Mandalorian name, especially the word 'Glory'." Gwydion keeps his left hand on the hilt of his sword, and quotes an ancient proverb."Renown is a fools prize. Glory is of no use to the dead."

Master Kote: Yes I have heard that teaching before when I just became a knight. My master told me that after the ceremony and I never forgot it. Unfortunately He died shortly after at the battle of Geonosis along with many other jedi.
The soldiers look back and forth at the two force users barely understanding much of what they are talking about. Claw still stands at Master Kote's side loyally and with out hesitation in front of the dark figure.

"I'm impressed. Of all the teachings we developed, that would be to one phrase that is retained."

Master Kote: I'm sorry I didn't catch your name. Also how can you be old enough to be friends with Revan he lived 4,000 years BBY. I heard that the force could prolong someones life but not that long.

"That would be because I didn't give it." Gwydion pauses."I am known as Lord Gwydion Kyr'am." Gwydion pauses once more. "As to my age, there are many mysteries of the Force that cannot be understood, and many secrets that may not be revealed. I watched as those who rediscovered the Force marched to war on Tython, and as the Rakata Infinite Empire subjugated the galaxy. Tatooine is a desert now because the Rakata attempted to kill me and the other two surviving members of my Order, as well as the remnants of the indigenous populations. Originally, we were twelve in number, but the others have fallen along the millenia. Those records were long lost by your era, other then footnotes in the corrupted data files about Revan."

Master Kote listens and nods in agreement. The troops finally get used to having Gwydion around and focus their attention back to the kinrath. They make sure they are ready to defend themselves against them or any other threat.
Master Kote: "Yes the data in the archives were always accurate but never gave much detail. Well they aren't of much use now that they were all destroyed and the temple in ruins."
Master Kote then turns is attention to his men and speaks to them.
Master Kote: "Ok we are't going to risk your lives trying to fight creatures. Rex move the men out of the caves but first set some det packs on the entrances and wait for us to come out."
Claw: Ok me and Rex will lead the men out.
He then looks over at Claw.
Master Kote: "Claw stay here with me."
Claw: Yes Sir.
The men head out of the queen kinrath's chamber and heads to set up some det packs.

Gwydion leaves the caves with Master Kote. As he exits the caves, he takes note of the mass of explosives already positioned at the entrance, all of which are stamped:==GAR PROPERTY==
==501st LEGION== ==82nd SPECIALTY AIRBORNE COMPANY== =="DEATH'S COHORT"==

Claw walks over upon seeing the explosives and brushes off the dust. He looks at Master Kote.
Claw: I believe I heard of Death's Cohort and 82nd Airborne but everyone has heard of the 501st.
Master Kote: Yes but what are they doing here on Dantooine of all planets.
Claw: Perhaps they were the GAR cruisers we spotted before we landed on this planet.
Master Kote: Do you think we should use their explosives or use ours.
Suddenly The kinrath start running up toward them from inside the tunnel.
Claw: I don't think we have much of a choice. Ok Rex you set the charges and me and everyone else will hold them off.
Rex starts wiring the explosives while Claw and the men open fire on the incoming kinrath.

Asalla had fallen unconscious yet again, but when she woke up she found herself laying on the stretcher outside of the queen's chamber. Asalla sits up and puts a hand on her head still feeling a little woozy from the kinrath venom. She stands uneasily and slowly walks to Master Kote. Asalla rests her hands on the handles of her pistols that are sheathed and hanging from her thighs.
Asalla: What's going on?

Master Kote: "No time to talk we have to blow this entrance out. Rex how's it going!"
Rex: "Working on it!"
Claw: "We can't hold them!"
The kinrath approach and are about to reach the men.
Rex: "I got it! Get Back so I can detonate the explosives"
Everyone falls back while Claw and the men cover them. Rex then presses the detonator.
BOOM! Rubble flies everywhere and the tunnel caves in. It cuts off the kinrath and leaves them stuck.
Rex: "That should hold them."

Asalla: Well, so much for the lasting excitement factor.
Asalla sighs and yet again examines and polishes her guns like nothing ever happened.

Gwydion watches as the soldiers recover from their ordeal, and then turns his gaze to the nearby fortress.

After finishing with her guns, Asalla watches this Lord Gwydion character mysteriously and backs away from most of the activity so she can examine him a little more discreetly.

Gwydion senses Asalla's curiosity, and turns his shadowed hood towards her briefly, then returns his gaze to the fortress. As his gaze rests on her, she would feel a twinge of icy dread emanating from him, fading slowly after he looks away.

Asalla shivers as she feels something like a knot going down her spine and notices that the power of that feeling is coming from Lord Gwydion. Asalla sqeazes her eyes shut and she shakes her head violently trying to get the sickly feeling out of her mind. She gets up from her "hiding spot" and walks over to Rex. Even though she knows it could get her killed, Asalla looks at Gwydion disgusted and says to Rex,
Asalla: I hate that guy. Ugh. I get chills even when he gives me the slightest look! It's so wrong it's disgusting.
