As the knights of Romund celebrate the retaking of the Dawn Temple, they start talking of the future. Tarot says, "My experiences tell me we should devote our powers to helping the helpless."

Hard to argue with that, the others agree. The order will have to do now the Jedi are all but extinct

It is a dark time inthe galaxy.

Though the brave heroes of the REBEL ALLIANCE fight against the tyranny of the GALACTIC EMPIRE, countless worlds till tremble under the shadows of evil/ The JEDI, guardians of order and justice are gone, and at their passing the forces of evil gather unimpeded.

But all is not lost, in a distant corner of the galaxy, on the outer rim Planet Spintir. a small band of adventurers seeks to rediscover the legacy of the Jedi. If they are successful, perhaps hope can be restored to the galaxy once again.

d100 63 means Travot experiences a vision of a scholar hiding a talisman in a library surrounded by guards. he talisman glows brilliantly until a black-gloved hand envelops it, plunging the vision into darkness. The hand clenches, he talisman cracks and crumbles and the resultant sand dribbles down on a planet, Eriadu.

The holographic form of the Gatekeeper appears before you, a grave expression upon his face. When he observes that you are all present, his countenance lightens somewhat, but remains serious. “My young friends, I've received a holomessage from an old friend, Ashur Sungazer, an accomplished human scholar specializing in galactic history."

The message resolve into a portly , bookish man with bright eyes and an innate enthusiasm. "Hello, my Cerean friend. Long has the time since we last spoke. I've come across something you may find interesting."

The holomessage pans out to show various bric-a-brac laid out on examination tables among which Ashur is walking. He pauses in front o a stone talisman and the holo zooms in closely, bringing it into sharp focus. Travot gasps "The talisman I saw in my vision!" Ahur picks up the stone and tilts it in such a way that tiny veins of color appear on the surface. In a conspiratorial whisper he says:

"I found this in the archive at Phelar University. the crystallization reminds e o stories about lightsaber crystals, and the engraving may be several thousand years old. I'd prefer not to speak more here; the Empire tends to censor our communications. But if you can meet me on Eriadu, I can show you this in person. Make sure you obtain some credentials; the relic cannot be removed from the university archive, and you need to be an accredited scholar to gain access. Not that it'll prove to be a problem or you, I think." Ashur grins briefly. "Come quickly my friends we have much to discuss."

Master Gatekeeper, how shall we get to Eriadu? "Malefax arrived on Spintir in a HWK 290 freighter that he hid in a cave in the valley," he replies.
