Kiber glanced around at the merriment going on; it was good to get away from bounty hunting and training, even if it was only for a night. He had been invited by Cathul to accompany her, so he hovered around, always keeping her in sight.

Although he was an apprentice, he deeply appreciated the gesture. Taking a complementary drink and some snacks from a waiter, he tried to relax, but it was hard when he had a job that needed doing - keeping an eye out for the assassins who could be anywhere and anyone.

Don't you worry, I will find you....

The walk to the small village where the battle would happen was fairly quiet, Cabur spent most of it trying to recover from the deadly blow that had hit him. The wound would probably heal naturally with time, but he knew that winning this battle would be a great first step towards it. He would simply have to defeat his great rival, one that he had heard much about, but only met once in person. The man he would face today was legendary in his trade. Cabur had heard many talking of his great skills on the battlefield, but he wanted to see for himself.

The village was mostly quiet, except for a small group of people gathered around a large fire. They had set up a few tables and were currently cooking something, whilst drinking and conversing about the Mandalorians, who had recently started getting quite friendly with the people of Gala. Cabur and the others approached quietly. They didn't want to get noticed just yet and the shadows made perfect cover for their approach. Cabur had to remain extra low, for his large size was terrible for stealth purposes.

"Wait, did you see that? There, right there, looks like some kind of ... Cabur? Is that you?"

He had been discovered. The tallest of the group stood up with a big smile. The Mandalorians around Cabur stared at him as he lowered his head in shame at his failure to sneak.

"It is you, why were you sneaking around like that? You know you're terrible at that, you should've just walked up, I would've saved the last bite of this roasted Nanu for you!"

"Hey uncle."

Cabur walked over to the large man, and he was indeed very large. While Cabur was already towering over most of his peers, his uncle was a few inches taller, making him a true giant of a man. The two gave each other a warrior's salute, then a typical Valkyri salute. The uncle laughed heartily as Cabur waved over the rest of his clan. Some of them were a bit confused, they had been expecting a battle here, as Cabur had talked out such an event taking place here when they arrived. "I will face my most dangerous foe to date on that island, be ready, for you might too." had been his exact words. Sneaking into the village had given them the impression they would be attacking it, but it seemed Cabur had just wanted to surprise his uncle by sneaking up on him and suddenly revealing his presence.

So the other Force-user in the advance team has just arrived? she thought, upon sensing her apprentice in the Force. By far she was the better of the two at using Force-sense, so she could raise the alarm when the assassins come. When the Almost in range signal is given, that ought to get the advance team ready for attack. There was a reason why she was called the Radar of Mandalore and she was to prove it today. Yet the assassins are still quite a way out of range from the royal palace, so the Queen was at liberty to make a few suggestions for locations to build said neighborhoods of social housing. That was going to mean a mixture of medium and high-rises, which under Mandalorian law, mean 4-12 floors for mid-rises and 13+ floors for high-rises. Better densify even if it comes at a higher risk of crime: but do not densify too much. Which means a police and a fire station both need to be in every neighborhood so built. Cathul did some social housing under PPPs (public-private partnerships) on Azure so the Queen trusted her handily.

"You know about the term inner city when you designate impoverished neighborhoods?"

"In most cases, what you call inner cities just aren't in inner cities - I would think it is mostly a Galacian thing. On most planets, and certainly in Mandalorian space, the rich usually want to work close to where they live, which means that a Mandalorian CBD has mainly mixed-use skyscrapers"

"You know about gentrification?"

"Yes, I know about gentrification. I suppose Your Majesty wishes to avoid that"

"How do you plan on avoiding gentrification?"

"There is only so much one can do. Even though building up to stringent codes would improve the safety of the residents, there are only so many amenities one could provide. Priority has to be given to impoverished populations - the only way avoiding gentrification would work requires a PPP to be in place"

As Vilaz's beloved came to the aid of the young woman that had no helmet whatsoever, the Akaan and Three began to secure the perimeter that surrounded them and their fellow Mandalorians. The Munin wasn't liking the fact that there was no signs of foreigners or hostile actions at all. From what he had heard, there had been many rumors of Sith Cultists here at this location and he'd expected something bad coming from this place. Despite not being greeted by these said Cultists in any manner, the Akaan wouldn't stop here and turn around to be evacuated. No, he was going to dig further and rid any Cultists from this planet so that there was nothing that could threat the Mandalorians from this planet.

"Anyone found anything," the Munin Alor asked to the men and women of his Vanguard and was responded back with nothing interesting to share.

"Well, we're not gonna stop here. We're all gonna go through some bay that apparently leads up to the Chateau. It'll take more time, but I don't plan on opening that door and triggering whatever the heck is in there." As much as Vilaz wanted to rid the Sith, he wasn't going to sacrifice so many lives because of it. He cared for every Mandalorian life here with him and while war did demand sacrifices, he wanted to limit the casualties as much as possible.

"Rally to me! We're moving on!"

Listening to his Spellweaver speaking to the Queen about housing, brought back memories of Kiber's childhood home on Mandalore - it was a rather large home built deep in a green valley, where he, his identical twin brother Zeak, and younger sister Sinya spent their formulative years, before the move was made to Coruscant, where they lived amongst Gray Jedi.

Although it was a royal ball, and he wanted to enjoy himself on a rare night off, he still had a rather an important job to do, so Kiber concentrated and began to track the assassins through the Force.

And don't you worry, I will be ready and waiting for you, believe me...

Mishka awed at the woman for a moment before smiling at the woman's kindness and returning her pistol to its holster near her hip. "Vor entye." She said politely as she accepted the wipes and began opening the package. Her ears alert to her surroundings, Mishka listened to the rattling of gear and sloshing of boots in the wet mud as her vod secured the perimeter. Among her vod was, apparently, was an adiik that was trying very hard to sound fierce, likely in imitation of his father, be he biological or adoptive. <Rodents beware.> Mishka thought to herself as she pulled the first wipe from the package and began to clense the world's tainted water from her face. The water, for its own part, didn't so much sting as itch considerably. A problem immediately resolved by the bacta wipe.

Her face clean and free from the acidic water, Mishka folded up the pack of medical wipes and placed them in the small armored pouch at her waist. <Lets hope I don't need these again anytime soon.> She thought to herself as she drew her pistol once more and moved closer to the front of the group. Still wearing her bright yellow poncho, Mishka followed closely behind the ruus'alor as they advanced on the building.

Though she did not say as much out loud, Mishka couldn't wait for the chance to explore the dark and spooky castle. <I bet this place is just full of neat stuff.> she thought to herself as she stared at the stone wall as she continued with the group.

Davon crested the wall and pulled his ageing bones up onto the walkway of the inner wall. There was a single walkway that connected this to the inner tower. Davon looked up at that slender, angular structure that jutted up above them. Their target was up there, but they needed to reach him with minimal fuss.

"Arla, give us some cover. We're going to be exposed crossing into the inner keep. Are you going to follow us in, or hold position in the outer guard tower?" He asked. Whilst Davon held no qualms about giving out orders, he also knew to rely on his people. Right now she had the best view to make that call. If she had a grapple line they could perhaps get her in through the windows a few floors above their already lofty height.

He unfolded his carbine and prepared to rush the inner structure.

"Look, Kiber, what I taught you was not quite Force-fear. You can always learn mind tricks and Force-stun from what I taught you. That is what I mean when I said that, with proper knowledge of neuropsychology, you don't need the dark side of the Force - you actually use something else entirely to achieve similar things to what you want out of Force-fear" Cathul tells [member="Kiber Thaxton"] in the Force.

Kiber will find out soon enough that Cathul will detect the assassins long before he will, that is, if they ever arrive within weapons range of the outermost elements of the advance team. And he will soon find out why Cathul is talking about housing affairs with the Queen. So long as the Queen is still under the illusion that Cathul is a Mandalorian Jedi dealing in real estate deals, she can get business deals done. While the rest of the advance team is there reveling in the ball, Cathul is the odd woman out of the gang. And in many ways: she was a lot better with the Force than with even a lightsaber, even though the effective range of her offensive spells is still more or less what you would expect out of a blaster pistol, she knew that the rest of the team would have little to no clue about any real estate lingo. She could always cast Force-stasis on a few assassins at longer ranges; it was directly convertible from Force-horror and accomplishes a very similar function. In that case she was not at the gates of Force-insanity but of Stasis Field. Knight-level Force-stun was the same as Apprentice-level Force-stasis, just as Master-level Force-stasis is the same as Apprentice-level Stasis Field.

"How would a public-private partnership prevent gentrification?"

"The government would own the neighborhoods and deal with the tenant issues, while we collect rents and do maintenance. That way Your Majesty can actually prioritize the social housing to those who will need it most"

"At least you know your role in this"

"Tell me, what would the wealthy on Gala find more desirable: living close to their workplaces or living in suburbia?"

"Suburbia for sure - even if you had a rather cost-effective way to build comfortable apartments as social housing, they'd still prefer living away from the city centers"

The taste sensation that passed her glossed lips was to die for. The strawberry was so sweet and the whipped cream topped it off. The only thing better would have been melted dark chocolate to go with it. Mesh'la ate the fruit dessert slowly in order to truly enjoy it. She couldn't help herself and had two more while standing there to the side of the buffet table; using a flimsi napkin to wipe the edges of her mouth afterward in a dainty like fashion.

Sapphire gems looked about the ball room at the guests; some dancing, others conversing in small groups. [member="Lok Munin"] seemingly was still on the balcony as far as she could tell as there was no visual of the teenager. When a waiter came by with a tray of fluted drinks, the young medic grabbed one. She took a sip of the bubbly, pale yellow liquid and it tickled her nose before it slid down her throat pretty easily.

Memories of the night Mesh'la shared a bottle of a Wookiee spirit with [member="Marcus Lok"] at the Kashyyyk Victory Party came to mind as the music played by the small orchestra present changed over from a fast paced song to a slower one. She wondered if they'd ever come across one another again…

That's when Mesh'la spotted a strange little man dressed in a black tux with a top hat walking about the crowd looking mischievous like he might be plotting something devious yet not. A red flag went up in the medic's mind since the Mandalorians were here to protect the Queen. She decided to follow him to see what he was up.

And so the Munin youngster would continue his time on the balcony, finding a nice spot for him to enjoy a smoke of spice and some alcohol in some elegant crystallized goblet. He said to himself that this would only last five to ten minutes, but was he really going to keep such promise that he couldn't keep. Every time he'd say that, he would end up enjoying himself thirty minutes to an hour whenever he consumed spice and alcohol. No doubt he was going to get a talking by his adopted father and his future adopted stepmother especially because of this mission that required his full attention as he was entrusted with protecting the Queen's life.

But there was a bountiful of Munin warriors that would cover up Lok's break, right? Besides, they were all well trained and disciplined which have enough excuse for the teenager to do his business.

The boy took an inhale of the joint of spice in his mouth and enjoyed every factor of it. "Now that hit the spot," the Mandalorian mused to himself. "I wonder if there's some lonely gal around here."

It was good to know Balor was watching over 'em.

Good crackshot too, apparently, as more guardsmen were falling down from the fortress. They had met on Wayland, on accident really, he hadn't been expecting Ordo to be scouting out Wayland at the same time as him. But they had worked things out and even established somewhat interesting of a cooperation.

Vizsla and Ordo working together, who would have thought.

He waited for an answer from her, before looking out over the walkway towards the inner keep. Looked clear for now, but that meant quite little in the grand scheme of things.

They'd be sitting ducks there... running ducks, either or. His scattergun was out now, the silenced gun left back in his holster, then - after exchanging a look with Death - Vizsla started running. Towards the danger, scattergun at ready and aimed, best if he didn't try and stop in the meantime.

That would only make the risk larger.

He came out of a snowdrift, above where he could see all of them. Snuggling the butt of his rifle into his elbow he'd sight down something...Knowing they were about to come under fire. He'd been following the team for a bit, deciding to stay in the back unannounced. Generally, the enemy couldn't prepare for an asset nobody knew existed. He'd placed himself on their far side, noting they were about to enter a vector of fire he himself wouldn't be fond of either.

Admirable. Perhaps a bit reckless but the call of glory cannot be ignored. He'd think to himself. Pulling the silencer off of the long-barreled weapon, he'd brace the ancient weapon against a rock. The Pulse rifle would almost be noticeable by anything left alive from the initial sniper fire from Arla. The old warrior sized her work up as he bode his time.

Impressive. She reminds me of Siha. The word entered his thoughts without self control, evoking memories of pain and anger. He'd nudge himself closer to the blackened rock, making sure to stay in the ice cave he'd made. A flicker of movement, he covered his scope. Buildings like this always had some sort of alarm. And alarms, when in the open to allow the sirens best covered for audio, were kill-zones. The rage bubbled to the surface, clawing and scratching it's way as his receding hairline and graying hair. And after a few moments, it made itself known.

In the sickest, most perverse way he could imagine, her tone entered his head again as if she sat next to him.

Do it, Cyar'ika. Just a few more bodies and maybe you can touch the top of the hole you've sunk into. Do it, just because you can. I thought you were a warrior, O'saam.
His lips became taught, and his brow narrowed under his obsidian colored helmet. It was an urge unlike any other and one he'd learned well.

"The rifle is not a weapon of your Clan. It is seen as a cowards way of killing," The voice called. It was not wrong. He'd set it down before shifting to a bevii'ragir he'd had since his
childhood.

There'd be the bright burn of a jetpack as he leaped into the air, his kama flapping around him and shielding his lower body from the flames and the heat. He'd come down with a crunch on the poor sap who'd went for the alarm after finding his dead comrades. A sickening crunch emitted between his feet, the traditional hunting spear being jabbed into the chords running from the alarm's switch to the siren itself. Around him stood whomever had heard, or had the same idea.
"Good, lover, kill them all. For us,"

In the brief moment, his life flashed before his eyes as his adrenaline began to surge like a river across the rocks. Building into the pace of a rapids, he remembered the last time he'd killed a man with the spear. The Beserker rage that filled his frame, what he'd had beat into him on Dxun, it produced something that the Galaxy had not heard from his family in many centuries.

A war-cry echoed through the area, followed by whoops of exertion and anger. Gurgling, as he ripped the Bevii'ragir from the spot he'd buried it, catching him in the throat with the bladed weapon. Planting a foot, he'd rotate and hurl the body with the sturdy weapon into another man, pushing them back into a door and blockading it. After a moment, he'd sprint towards another man who went to brandish his rifle, lunging the spear ahead of his body and catching him across the thumb and into the armpit. Shoulder charging him as a fine meat shield, the gristled warrior then planted him firmly into a wall.

One more, lover.

He heard her voice again. Turning, he'd plant his fingers at the end of his spear before snapping it out of his hands. It soared across the courtyard, making a loud whistling noise as it did so. It was iconic, something ingrained into Mandalorian Children who were trained to fight against projectile using enemies. And as the spear was designed to be aerodynamic, it flew at a decent pace with a spin. A bolt came from the man who'd drawn down on him, and then another before the Spear impacted his head into a wall. They slammed into O'saam's pectoral plating, and then his gut plates. The impacts were heavy enough it sent him off his feet, the black-clad verd sliding across the ground for a moment. Instinctively, he reached for his trench knife. Something jumped on his front, and he'd lock blades with it. After a few moments of grunting and exertion, the being tried shifting over him. He'd tilt his shoulders to the side, sending the two knives into the stone beneath their feet. A hand moved from his hilt to the man's face, slamming into the being's ear twice. Once they'd both been disoriented, he straddled the man-

No. It's not a man. It's a boy. He kept driving the knife down anyways, against the arms that fought to hold him off. He'd plant his other hand above the trench-knife's hilt and firmly slam it down into his chesty cavity. The child couldn't have been Eighteen. Hell, even Sixteen was stretching it. Instinct kicked in, the boy had assaulted him with intent to kill. And after a few moments more of grunting and shouting, O'saam drove his weapon into the younger fellow's heart. The giving away of sinew and flesh and the spurts of blood confirmed what he knew. He'd twist the blade, before kneeling with heavy breathing.

It's been a while since we've spilled blood for another cause.

The voice echoed in his head again. But he was lost in another memory while he had freedom to be so. "Magnetize," He growled out, adjusting his hand so the Bevii'Ragir's mag-strip met it palm on. He'd wrap his gloved fingers around the weapon he held so dearly.

A Teenager's voice replaced the former lovers. "Teach me how to fight, Old Man!" He was shook from the memory when he punched above where the bolts had hit his gear. The sharp pain against his torso broke the stupor he felt.

He'd open comms, letting out a static burst akin to Morse Code that Mandalorians were fond of, praying people remembered how to use it.

"This is The Black Death. Proceed freely, my wings have spread over you,"

She heard Davon coming through the comm, "I'm going to move around out here on the ramparts taking out the opposition, once I have them under wraps if you need me I'll come in but right now I think you need cover going in and coming out, just don't forget to take me home after this. I got plans next week"

She brought the weapon again to bear down on those below her she waited to see them picking their heads up, thing is they were starting to send more her way. Good thing she brought grenades and loaded missiles before she left otherwise she'd be the duck in the barrel.

There was movement to her left on the rampart across from her, she looked over quickly and sent a volley their way to give them the message they weren't welcome and if they decided to come they'd have problems.

She smiled, and commed the team again, "get going it's going to get hot out here, and more so in there quick." How many did they have out here, feth if she knew but she would try...

there was another voice...black death? who was black death?

While Mesh'la appeared to be closely inspecting one of the little guests dressed in a black tuxedo and a top hat that seemed to have been behaving strangely, Cathul detected in the Force that he was going to send out a signal to some outside party that was closing in on the outer perimeter, using some concealed comlink device sending out coded and encrypted signals. The outer perimeter, in this context, meant that the palace exterior was going to be on full alert soon enough. She was ready to use any spell she could to protect the Queen. In the end, she was the best at Force-sense in the advance team - they had the freaking Radar of Mandalore in person, positioned to defend the Queen from harm. That sort of cue in the Force was not good. But in true therapist fashion, she keeps calm in the face of such suspicious activity from the part of one of the guests. Luckily for Cathul all she has left to do for her business is to collect the paperwork at the Ministry of Justice later, because they got the business finished. But before she could ask for the coordinates of the Ministry of Justice office where she would be collecting the paperwork, she issues a warning to everyone in range:

"Almost in range! The assassins are closing in on our outer perimeter!" she communicated through comlink to the rest of the advance team.

"What?"

"Your Majesty, stay close to the hired security until the all clear signal is given"

"Understood"

The ballroom - well, most of the guests that weren't part of the advance team as defined within Cathul's operational parameters, were surprised and shocked and Cathul took advantage of the confusion to fire off a pyrokinesis spell on the concealed device from the nearly maximum range (as far as she was concerned) of 25 meters. And then cryokinesis to douse the fire; these two spells fired in succession destroyed said concealed device and caused some incomfort, but the relief caused by the concealed device no longer transmitting anything to the assassins would end up being short-lived. Because she didn't need much power to use pyrokinesis or cryokinesis, due to the small size of the object being neutralized, she still had a lot of power available to fight assassins if they ever got to her. But Cathul was confident the assassins would not Even so, for good measure, she decided to fire a Force-stasis spell on the informant on whom she just disabled the concealed transmission device, rendering the informant catatonic for the time being. But for how long will the informant be stunned?

The dancing went about as well as Bantha born with four left feet could go. Nothing fancy just a little bit of twirling and that awkward side to side "I really don't know how to do this" swaying. Still Phislo thought that it was pretty fun and she was enjoying Teagan's company. Something came along, however, to put a damper on the mood. She saw Mesh'la at the table and noticed her eyeing a man in a suit with suspicion. She was about to go over and greet her to see if she was suspicious of him being an agent. "I'd love to teach you some basic Mand'oa sometime." She said keeping up with the conversation as she watched Mesh'la slowly walk towards him. She could take care of the one guy.

Then she heard the commlink go active "Almost in range! The assassins are closing in on our outer perimeter!"

She slightly nodded in acknowledgement and waited until the song ended. She looked around the hall for anyone suspicious looking and asked Teagan "So, you want to meet and greet some of the locals?"

This was one of those moments when a soldier trusted that luck was on their side. It wasn't the Force, it wasn't fate, it was blind luck. It was luck that decided how the wind carried to mortar round into the enemy and whose life it ruined. It was luck that would determine if a tired guard was paying particular attention and gunned down Davon as he ran.

The longer you think about these moments, the worse they get...

Already the narrow walkway to the keep seemed to be becoming longer and narrower. A good soldier knew when to put in place measures to change the odds and when it was time to act. Time to hope they shot at Ronan instead.

Davon got to his feet and he ran.

Rally to me.

What the Hutt was a 'rally' and why did they need to give one to Mister Vilaz?

...or, was a rally even something you gave? Was it supposed to be something you did? Were they supposed to do something to Mister Vilaz?

The small clone was very confused by the alor's word choice here.

But, whatever, all the Mandos seemed to just be moving on.

Maybe they were just playing it cool. Pretend the alor didn't just say something really, really weird... and just look cool with blasters and stuff. Three could understand if that were the case. Or, at least, that's what Three intended to do.

Looking up, his small helmet tilted to one side and masking the look of confusion that was plain as day on his young face, the small Mandalorian child simply fell into step with the other warriors as they continued marching on.

He could ask SJ or Briika later what 'rally' meant.

The Vanguard with Vilaz at its head continued its detour around the Chateau as they were heading towards the Bay of Tears in which the mansion overlooked at. Consumed more time, yes, but it was better than walking through the front door and hope not to encounter something totally diabolical. They were ruthless and fearless Warriors, but they weren't that dumb to walk into something obviously diabolical which would just spell out inconvenience for the Akaan and his troops.

Who in the right mind would walk into the house of a Sith Cult through the main entrance?

Manda help the person or people that do.

"Try not to be captivated by the sight of the bay," Vilaz said in the secured comm channel which the Vanguard shared with each other in regards of the bay as he was the first person to come in sight of it. It honestly didn't look beautiful at all. With this world infested by the Dark Side of the Force and all the rain acid, it wasn't a sight to behold. He'd seen better and gorgeous bays during his getaway vacation on Bandomeer with his beloved Bree.

Speaking of Bree, the Munin had made sure she was close to him and not far away from him. It disrupted his focusing just the thought of his significant other not being with him because it made him think all kinds of things such as her life and safety whenever they were on a mission or a battle. But he didn't had to worry about that since the two were always together in situations like these. The Concordian also made sure that the young Munin Cadet, Three, was also near him.

The young girl that had no helmet might also need to be under his supervision.

"Keep on moving," the Munin Alor said as he continues marching towards the cave of the bay that led to the interior of the Chateau.

"What brings you to this island? Just visiting your old uncle, eh?" He laughed once more, sitting down on a bench.

"Oh, I'm here because of a battle. I think you know which one I mean." Cabur said as he sat down on a bench on the opposite side of his uncle. He observed his unlce's face. He had gotten a few new scars, he'd have to ask about them later, but for now he mainly noticed that his expression became more serious.

"You know that it would most likely kill you, right? You haven't been around Valkyri all your life, you've grown up with your Mandalorian brethren ever since ... you know. As fine warriors as they may be, they are no Valkyri; And only Valkyri can overcome this challenge and live afterwards." He shifted, sitting up straighter and putting this hands together under his chin.

"I know. However you'll see I have not grown weak. I have continued training like the warriors of Midvinter, in addition to the training the Mandalorians have given me. I may not be greater than a true Valkyri warrior, but I am their equal." Cabur put his hands on the table and leaned closer to the old Valkyri opposite him. "I am ready, uncle. I can do this. Please, allow me to prove it to you."

The older Valkyri sighed and looked at the ground, letting his forehead rest on the back of the upper hand. The two men sat there in silence for a while, while the rest of the villagers and the Mandalorians started having various conversations. The Mandos were offered drinks or food, some accepted, others got out their own and offered it in exchange. It was quite interesting to see how the two cultures interacted, but Cabur was too preoccupied with his uncle to observe.

"Fine." The old man sighed. "You win, I will allow you to attempt this challenge, but know that I do so only with a heavy heart, for I could not bear to lose you also, the last one of your mother's line."

"I understand the risk you take, uncle, and I am thankful. I must do this, or else I will never be able to grow as a warrior."

If the assassins are closing in on the outer perimeter, the suspect is a spotter that could no longer act as such. Its equipment is inoperative and the assassins are cut off from their inner spotter. By now they are in the outer perimeter, that is, near the outside walls of the royal palace. But at least Cathul could actually do something about that... she feels forced to spill the beans as to how Cathul knew that the strange guy was a spotter for the assassins. The dark side of the Force surrounded him, but he was unable to use the Force. But now everyone in the ballroom is aware that assassins are closing in on their position; one could only hope that the security teams on the outer perimeter would catch them before they make it to the ballroom. There was a major commotion in the outer perimeter but Cathul was willing to give the vode on the outer perimeter a chance to intercept the assassins. But Cathul was not willing to kill the spotter: that was to be premature, at least according to how she interpreted the Force-currents.

"He was acting strange all right; how did you know about him being a spotter for the assassins?"

"Witchcraft"

"What kind of witchcraft is that?"

"Force-sense, psychometry"
