Ravage enters the atmosphere of Dxun and pulls out his papers.
"Lets see, this first set of numbers, in terms of latitude and longitude, takes me to...an open field surrounded by a small canyon. The second takes me to...a large black building that looks like a sizeable fortress. I'll search the building first, it looks more promising."
Darth Ravage lands his ship in the jungle near the building and hides it in the brush. He runs to the entrance and enters.
Once inside he walks around. After about ten mintues he senses he is not alone. He continues walking, trying to discover his follower...or is it followers now?
Ravage senses 4 of them, all of them force sensitive. He didn't know how much training they had had so he waited until they had followed him into a dead end.
Ravage shouts down the dark hallway he had just walked along, "I KNOW YOU ARE FOLLOWING ME, WHAT DO YOU WANT?"
Darth Ravage sees 2 of his stalkers as they walk closer. "What about the other two?"
The other 2 also come forward. "Who are you and what is this place?"
One of the 4 step forward, "We are decendents of Dark Jedi left behind on Dxun by Darth Nihilus after the battle for Onderon. He forgot to return here when the battle was over, unless it is still going on. We get no news from anywhere, unless we steal some scraps of information from those darned Mandalorians. Is the war continuing?"
"I have no current knowledge on the planet of Onderon. Again I ask, where am I?"
"You don't know? This is the tomb of the great Sith Lord Freedon Nadd."
"Nadd is buried here? May I see his body? He was a friend of mine. Well, as close of a friend as a Sith can get."
"Follow us, we'll take you to the sarcophagus." The 4 Dark Jedi walk away from Ravage and he follows them.
As Ravage and his guides walk deeper into the tomb, Ravage sees more and more traces of civilization. Eventually, they come to a gathering of people, Ravage notices that they too are all force sensitive.
Darth Ravage tries to get info as they walk, "Are any of the people living here not force sensitive?"
"Only 2 people have ever been normal here, neither is alive still. Both of them had force sensitive children before they passed though, they were part of the original force that landed and never got to leave."
"How many of you are there?"
If you count our group in the Jungle, there are about 30,000 of us here. Every one of us is trained to use the force in battle. We are so many because we found a hibernized group of about 12,000 Dark Jedi, most were Dark Jedi Knights but some were Masters and even less were Apprentices. 18 Sith Lords were also found and revived in the farthest reaches of the tomb. They have taken our training farther than our teachers ever could have. We use the tomb as a place to keep our sick and wounded, the Jungle holds many siknesses and the Mandalorians are trying to wipe us from the planet."
"How many Mandalorians are there?"
"Last month we estimated about 200,000 including women, but not children. The children probably add another 25,000 to their number."
"Do the Mandalorians have any way off-planet?"
"A small shuttle and a few old basilisks. The shuttle doesn't have a hyperdrive so their stuck in-system too, but at least they can travel to Onderon for supplies instead of hunting the beasts for food and chopping wood with a vibro-axe or a lightsaber to make shelters."
"I am following an incomplete map I found on Korriban, here are the two pieces I own."
Ravage shows the map to the 4 Dark Jedi.
"I believe we have another part of that map in our possession, it was found on the body of Lord Nadd. It only has a bunch of numbers in a line on it, and the letters 'don N' at the top. Looking at these other two maps, I see what the letters on the top stand for."
The Dark Jedi looks to another, "Kyte, go get our map real quick, this could be interesting."
"What do the letters at the top say?"
"Isn't it obvious? They say, 'Freedon Nadd.' As in, the tomb of Freedon Nadd. I still wonder what the code on our map means. How did you know how to find the tomb anyway?"
"I saw Dxun circled on the map and figured they were latitude and longitude coordinates for something. The first led here and the second led to the center of a small canyon to the west of here."
"Dxun doesn't have any canyons..."
"Hey, I saw what I saw."
"I don't doubt it, but what you saw may not be what you think it is. You probably saw the Mandalorian camp from altitude."
Kyte, returns with the map.
"Fits perfectly, now what do the numbers on our map mean? Maybe we need to find out why the map points to the Mando camp."
"We need to contact the Mandalorians and see if they have part of the map."
"There is a small problem with that, we don't have any working comlinks. Ours ran out of juice a while ago and the Mandalorians keep guards watching their powerpacks all day and night."
"I can get in contact with them, show me the way out of the tomb."
Ravage is led out of the tomb and he heads to his ship. As he lifts off the debris slides off of his ship
