Catching a Falling Knife - Part 5.0

by Advisor KitKat the Mentat

So, eventually the safety airbags deflated, and I could move my limbs again of my own volition.
 
Awaking in Port Etmar, I found I had plenty of bruises. I collected a cup of caf and my Vor, Danar.
We accepted Doc's invitation to a military briefing.
 
Doc told us Fett was fine, getting the sleeping drugs out of his system. Our Replicant, Mrs. Leed emerged from the torture sessions needing more rest and reuperation. Doc found the mercenaries and the Decepticon had accessed a particular visual memory. They were being cloned by Kaminoan methods in pods of about a half dozen each. The hologram video showed a facility much like the one Danar Vorpadaran had found and destroyed. In the video, a woman appearing to be a Crimson Knight, I believe she was Commander Avana Makus, (Magus?sp?) the commander of the entire order, whom I have met once in person. She spoke to the holocam, "Sir Tam, I hope you, Vanya Ysadora, and her companions are seeing this..." She purchased the equipment to make/alter the pods of Replicants to allow them to live a full life. She imbedded the true footage of the attack upon the Crimson Knights' Hall on Coruscant. The robed figures who attacked the Crimson Knights were not wielding bows as the leaked video had shown, they had vibro-blades with an odd bluish glow which could deflect light sabers wielded by the CK's. One in particular, she was a deadly smooth attacker. With her, Alexander Vorpadaran, (now known as Sargon Xan Duran, used apparent Sith powers to murder all the CK's he saw. After the slaughter, false evidence was planted for the street judges to find. Strangely, after two judges found the fake evidence, She returned and with blinding speed, slayed both street judges.
 
Commander Avana Makus returned to say that the "First Holocron" had to be saved.
 
The Crimson Knights' direct training against the Void Widows might have been the reason for the Void Widow's presence at the attack, but also Sargon's interest in the Replicants might have determined the time of execution.
 
Almon D'Joy identified the one who had made the alterations to the fake video as one Outlaw Tech, Dib Crandor, (also a one-semester Tleilaxu). The Corruscant Guard must have been distracted or bribed to not have noticed the fake. (Almon, started working for AVP 4 months before the CK's were murdered. DC showed up on the payroll later.)
 
Danar and Vanya spoke of Force Wraiths, which could have accounted for Alexander Vorpadaran's sudden gain of massive dark side force powers in only 5 years or less. Prior to that, he was not as good a swordsman as Danar and certainly could not have defeated multiple Crimson Knights.
 
The three legs of the Emperor's stool.
the Order of Solicitors
 
When Darth Sidious tried to destroy the Jedi order, (younglings, building) the events left a lot behind.
 
Danar asked about the First Holocron and what information (or person) is in it?
 
Master Yoda has the Second Holocron ever made, at the new Jedi Temple in Auratera(?)
Dantooine.
 
An enhancement of the corner of the image showed that up to 5 Jedi younglings in their early teens, (squires, apprentices, cadets, or whatever) were helped out by someone familiar. This one was a little ragged, rumpled, green, with a T-shaped visor.
 
The shadows did not line up between the two versions of the hologram. It seemed that individual frames had been deleted from each of them. We had no clue why the Commander of the CK's would fake a version of the video and present it as the truth, nor how someone would fool her with a fake version which she took to be the Force Gospel Truth.
 
We eavesdropped on Vanya and my Vor, and heard Boba Fett agree that he was a witness there at the scene of the CK massacre. He said he did in fact save five younglings as "foundlings", and he saw 15 Void Widows, and one short haired ginger saber rake following them around. But he had never heard of Void Widows, only Bene Gesserit assassins. It was a game of numbers. The CK did not regroup fast enough to outnumber the 16. The assassins did have poison darts and a hunter seeker, he said, and the occasional blaster, but they preferred the vibro-knives and "Mandalorian weapons" to the blasters. They were going out of their way to pretend to be BG's. HE SAID THEY WERE IN FACT SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING AS WELL AS ASSASSINATING.
 
I sketched the description and found that the Kaminoans must have cloned the pieces of Darth Feyd (Count Harkonnen), (who had been blasted to pieces during a duel with Danar.). That was the saber rake.
 
The BG Library was hack-attacked during a distracting missile attack. It failed to steal and destroy data.
 
Koleen and Zayne theorized why this would be faked. Destroying trust in the Orange Catholic and Jedi groups would help the Hutts, particularly if they now controlled the Void Widows. They (and Sparks) found that Captain Koleen's Aunt in the Corellian Information Bureau had another version of the same video, the same as the Tapani Ministry of Information has. In it, a completely different male assailant and 15 assassin women attack the CKs. They are clearly searching for something also. It more clearly showed Boba Fett and Hondo Ohnaka helping rescue the five surviving younglings. Five of the 15 assassins died. The survivors incinerated the remains of their dead compatriots. It seemed the Corellian Guard should have been able to complete the investigation without calling the Order of Solicitors, the Street Judges.
 
Hmm......
