Open the book

Lana: I'll check that book!

Ranvi: Aren't you listening to me Lana?! Leave that book be, it wasn't meant for us, anyway!

Lana: Relax girl, that's just a book! Though I can't read what's written on its cover...

Ranvi: All the more reason to get going from here!

Lana: Hm, a pity I didn't bring HK along, but he required some repairing... Wait, I might be able to find out what's on it! I'll scan it with my datapad, it might be able to identify the language and translate it!

You take the datapad and scan the writing. It manages to identify and translate it. The datapad says it's written in ancient Sith!

Lana: It's in ancient Sith...?!

Ranvi: What...?!

Lana: Cool! Now I am curious!

Ranvi: I am not at all...!

Lana: Okay, let's see what's the title... "The journal of Tulak Hord"...

Ranvi: Tul... who...?

Lana: He was an ancient Sith Lord! He is known as one of the best duelists of the galaxy to this day. And he is also known to be a great master of the dark side of the ****, many rumoured even in his time, that he found the secret of eternal life through the control of the midi-chlorians! He is said to have had a couple of powerful artefacts left behind in his tomb on Korriban to be found by the worthy.

Ranvi: That is ridiculous! That has never been done! If he had done that, he would still be alive I guess...!

Lana: But what if he really found a way? There is only one way to find out! By opening and reading his book! I wonder how could such a book get here...? Maybe a Sith left it here...?

Ranvi: All the more reason to leave it be! For real!

Lana: Couldn't you use your power to see the memories of this book?

Ranvi: Me?! Touching that?! No! No way!

Lana: That way we could find out who left it here! Maybe we could discover something important! Think about it, maybe it was Darth Sidious and you could save the Jedi Order by discovering the identity of the Sith Lord!

Ranvi: You are serious aren't you...?

Lana: Of course I am! This might be out big chance! Come on, trust me, it will be alright!

Ranvi: Fine... But why do I have the feeling I shouldn't trust you on that one...?

Lana: I have no idea why you would be having such thoughts...!

Ranvi places her palm on the book, closes her eyes and focuses on it. She is able to see the things that have happened to the book. She keeps the connection with it for a minute, for which duration you are waiting in silence. When she has had enough, she lifts her hand.

Lana: Soo...? What did you see?

Ranvi: You won't believe it but... It was left here by Darth Valare...!

Lana: That Sith woman again...?

Ranvi: The book truly belonged to Tulak Hord, but I was unable to see any of those memories of it, maybe the time period is too far, or the dark side has corrupted it somehow... Anyway, the book was found by a young Sith long ago, then, he was discovered owning it, so he was killed by some Sith Lords!

Lana: Typical Sith...

Ranvi: It was put into the Sith archives, but later stolen by Valare.

Lana: As I said, typical Sith...

Ranvi: She used to carry it with her, before finding this enclave and leaving it here. I do not know the reason for it...

Lana: Has anybody opened it since?

Ranvi: I don't know, the book blocks my memory tracking ability at certain times. That is all I could discover.

Lana: Fair enough! So, let's see why our dear Valare thought it to be so important to steal it!

Ranvi: No, don't open it, it might be a trap...!

You open the book around the middle of it, then it starts glowing red and you hear whispering from the book. You don't understand any of the words it speaks and the next thing you see is some kind of red void that pulls you into the book itself!

Lana: Ranvi...!

Ravni: Lana...!

You are devoured by the book, while Ranvi remains as she was. She screams and panics for some time before she tries to find a way to get you out of the book without opening it to avoid whatever has happened to you. Next thing you see is nothing but a great emptiness, with nothing but you at the middle of it. Suddenly, Valare appears fr you. You wanted to grab your lightsaber, but you realize you don't have it on you.

Valare: No need to be violent all of a sudden, Jedi. It appears you have found my dear book! Good!

Lana: What trickery is this?!

Valare: This is one of the many great inventions of Tulak Hord! He had written a book about his Sith alchemy and to keep it a secret from his unworthy rivals, he used a protective **** magic. It traps anybody inside, who isn't judged worthy by the book. I have outplayed it, when I found out he created a counter spell for it! All too easy. When I had all the knowledge I needed from the book, I reinstalled its protective magic barrier.

Lana: Am I trapped here...? But how can you be here...? Are you trapped too...?

Valare: No, this is merely an interactive holomessage, based on my personal characteristics and the data I provided for it.

Lana: Data...?

Valare: Yes, a data, to let you know how you got here in the first place! I was hunting Jedi on Dantooine when I found the room you wandered into. I figured, other Jedi might be drawn to the place, so I might make their lines thinner by laying a trap for them! And it worked well so far! You aren't the first, nor the last to fall into my trap!

Lana: You little...!

Valare: Oh, by the way, there is no way out of this place once you get here... Soo... have fun for eternity! Or, rather until you die here...! Goodbye!

She disappears and you are left alone. Frustrated as you are, you start walking in one direction in hopes of finding a way out... All of a sudden, you see something in the distance. Like, a door or something... You rush towards it. It was really a door! Finally, you will be free, you hope! You open it and step inside. You find yourself at the middle of the Jedi temple...! What's worse... totally naked! You try to go back through the door, but it is gone!

Lana: Blast! What is this...?! Is this really the temple?!

You touch the marble pillars and the stone statues around you... All feel real! You hear some padawans coming your way, you can't let them see you as you are! You hide behind one of the pillars. They are busy talking to each other and they don't spot you. You are holding one of your hands to your mouth to conceal even your breathing from them. You are trembling at the though of being found naked at the middle the order's centre. When they have passed, you get out of your hiding spot, find out where you are exactly and make your way towards your room. The next corner however, as you are running for your life, you bump into a temple guard. You both get knocked onto the ground.

Temple guard: Hey, you there! Nudity is strictly prohibited in the temple, unless ordered by a master! There were no announcement for such activity right no, so identify yourself and come with me!

Lana: Noo!

You get back on your feet and start running the other direction. The guard calls for other guards to come and assist him in taking you into custody. You have no idea where you are running, you just want to get away from them! You don't realize you are going to get cornered soon... When you realize it, that there is no way out, only above to a platform and the temple guards are surrounding you, you **** push them, though they stand their ground and remain on their feet. The little time you gained, you used to **** jump onto one of the statues, to be able to make an other jump to get onto the platform. The guards don't try to do it after you, instead run for the nearby stairs. You run away and hide at the archives, where they won't be able to find you behind the many bookshelves.

Lana: Phey, that was close...! All of it feels so...! real...!

?: Because it IS real...!

Lana: What the...?!

Ranvi: It's just me, Lana, keep your voice down!

Lana: Ranvi?! How did you...?! Why are you naked too...?!

Ranvi: That's not important right now, what matters is that we have to get back to your rooms, fast!

Lana: Agreed! I know the fastest root, I used to be coming here often! Follow me!

You lead her through the back entrance and through some stairs and hallways. You move from hiding spot to hiding spot to avoid detection by the many masters and padawans in the temple. The temple guards are too looking for you, so you must keep a low profile. You tried using your **** projection ability to cover yourself, but it didn't seem to work...! You must be so disturbed, you can't use the **** as well as you would normally. As you make your way through the hallway just around your rooms, you are seen by somebody! No other than Barriss! But she wasn't alone, Ahsoka was with her too!

Barriss: Wow, you are always in such situations, aren't you, Lana?!

Ahsoka: Just...! What the heck are you guys doing...?! Streaking through the temple naked in broad daylight...?!

Lana: Look girls, this is not the time to explain it, could you help us get to our rooms to finally be able to get clothed...?!

Barriss: Well, yes of course I would, but... Master Luminara has just sent me on a punishment duty to rearrange the books in the archives back into proper alphabetical order because I have forgotten to bring a book back in time...

Ranvi: Ahsoka...?

Ahsoka: Sorry guys, I have enough trouble all the time anyway, if I were caught with you in the temple in your current state, I might get expelled...! Too much to risk, sorry! But I am sure if you have found your way into this situation, you will find you way out too! May the **** be with you!

Lana: Oh, just you wait...!

Ranvi: Come on Lana, we have no time for this! Anybody could come at any moment!

You finally make it to your rooms! You enter the code and find out all your clothes are gone! Your wardrobe is completely empty! You just stand there in disbelief...! Meanwhile, Ranvi comes to your room with the same realization. Somebody must ba playing a prank on you two! You check everything and finally find one piece of clothing outside on the hallway not far from your rooms. You rush for it and pick it up. As you were about to put it on, you look at Ranvi, as she still doesn't have anything to put on... She is just desperately trying to find anything to cover herself with. You too hate being like that, but she isn't a great fan of public nudity either... You now look at the cloth and think on your next action...
