"That man was no Mandalorian- but they knew well the Mandalorian we all seek together. The species of this man was Sith, an ancient species long.. extinct. Once they contended with the rest of the galaxy in their might, the first to follow a path opposite that of the Jedi. Now they are but a footnot...

"You research things that the Jedi would have preferred remained hidden forever more," they smile, though shake their head. Walking nearer to Claymore the being known as Irizka finds themselves a seat near to where he was set up to work. "Perhaps it brings you no surprise that I too am familiar with...

"You might consider yourself lucky from the things I have learned of the fate of the Jedi Order and those that were party to them," they say. Allowing the moment for a rare smile from Irizka."Such late blooming with the force might offer one a new perspective on the force, I would think. One your Je...

"Then this one will escort me," they say, looking to Praxton from Raven. "As I will escort the helm back to your Mandalore. We will return directly- but you will need journey across the top of the ship. I bid you so so quickly- and speak to the others you require haste as well." "You are not out of ...

"One at a time would be rather slow. We have need to not tarry," they say.

Durasteel doors open revealing the helm where they'd left Irizka. Behind them there are the ancient bodies of Mandalorians in their seats still manning their positions until the ship has fallen. In front of the far central throne lay the old bones of a Mandalore long past, their helm removed and wai...

Irizka watches him speak, and though the hood obscured much that extra sense he has always had suggests they watch him like a lab rat to be observed.

"You are aware then. How did you not come into the possession of the Jedi when you were young?"

"I have felt your presence among them, Mandalorian. You are not.. like the others," they say, by way of greeting that was far more jarring than the way their voice didn't match their accent.

Haat waits until there's a chance to get a word in - there were lots of questions from lots of those present, and for good reason. But when they can, they take a step closer to Irizka. Is there and hopefully has some time for a question. " Vod , if I may? I understand this... 'excavation' thing is ...

"Wait, is that the place where we un-alived a bunch of stormies this morning? You know, underground section that was the site of an old battle?"

"It is not," they say.

"You will need be fast," Irizka centers attention on themself with Mandalore's leave. "Our efforts have shown me where the ship lay in final rest. Deep beneath the lake nearby, and I may grant your people access. Our time will be sparse. The feat that must be accomplished will certain alert the Empi...

"Know only that my word is my bond, as yours should-" they focus on Garen, a rare smile creeping across their lips. "I do appreciate your concern for me. I will be sure to maintain my safety, and I do hope you do all you can to maintain yours."

"No, I have never been and never was a Jedi. Though I did once claim a friend," they raise their hand, wobbling it slightly. "Well, a friend to the person whom I was most devoted. I do not think it wise to consider I was ever Merrium's friend, but dear Merrium was a stalwart Jedi Knight and Master o...

"When I was young I was trained heavily in use of the Force," they look among the scattered faces. Sensing among them the mix of recognition and not. Looking to Fè most directly, "You do not have a standing order any longer, but your parents- or perhaps even you have been witness to the power of the...

"I have beared that in mind dutifully. I only ask that you yourselves do not interrupt me with word or act, that is enough. As Mandalorian warriors, I expect you will hold to your word," they say, and let that sink in for only half a second. Waving their hand in a smooth beckoning gesture they begin...

"I will need to hear agreement from each of you," they insist. Looking now most to Garen and Raven each.

"Armor," they say, focusing on Fé, "and not one of any significance to your peoples. This armor was crafted for another, and it belongs to me as the Helm of Mandalore belongs to your people. Beyond this, there is the possibility of your ancient Mandalore having had personal effects on their person w...

"When it comes time," they say, glancing across the faces that were present. Lingering their gaze a little on each one of them in turn. "I only ask that when we find the Helm of Mandalore, and the person I imagine it yet rests upon, that you do not make any motion to stop me from claiming what I hav...

"Having trouble finding them, are we? I may be of assistance, but I would need ask you do something in turn for me while you are within this structure," they say, their voice ever holding that distance to it that feels as if they are reaching out to them from a millennia away into the past. Emotion ...

Without apparently any announcement there was another person in their midst without anyone having had the opportunity to realize. Only them speaking drew attention to their presence among these ancient ruins. "You are a curious bunch," they say with a wry grin that was not worn physically but drippe...
