*Irvine blocks again, still wide-eyed and on his back. He thinking 'how the heck did I get into this!?'.
He thinks about would be like going after Cracken as a Jedi, something he turned his back on to go after his pitiful desire.
He blocks another swing from Starr..
Then yet again, it was the same Jedi whom took him away from his own father! How could he possibly fallow through with protecting the galaxy by protecting it from the very same people like his father. Even if he killed Cracken, it would be still killing his own father! Were in the sense of duty would it balence out in murdering your own blood!?

Godsheim Station ((Just a Reminder Godsheim station is shapped like a sword, point down))
Godsheim Station Control: Welcome to Godsheim Station. Please follow your escorts in.
*Two Viking II fighters decloak to either side of the Dragon's Bane. They flew parrallel to the guard passing Aesirian Destroyers Disen and Alvis. The Alvis was in the final stages of docking having arrived a couple of hours ealier from Valen Minor.
As the ships neared guest hangers they came in sight of two Drakes who were perched on the guard and watch the flight with a dignified intensity. A couple minutes later the flight turns lining up with the open hanger, the fighters peel off and quickly cloak again. As the Dragon's Bane enters the hanger turrents track it, and once it was completly inside the hanger quietly close.
On the deck of the station waiting to greet the emissaries from the Republic was a Valkryie in her shinning red gold armor with a red and gold cloak across her shoulder. She was flanked by two einherjar in their blue and silver armor with cloaks of the same color. They waited patiently for Hal, Mirra and Ellela to exit their ship*
*The Ramp at the front of the corvette lowers and four House Gaurds of the Sword decend. The Gaurds wear silvered scale shirts which cover them to the elbows and the knees, divided for riding; their long gauntlets and greaves are also silvered, as are their helmets. The Gaurds carry long swords on their backs as well as round shields, each also carries a short sword on his belt. The Gaurds where unadorned blue surcoats and cloaks.
The Gaurds split into two pairs, one goes left, the other right.
Behind the gaurds decend Hal, Mirra and Ellela.
Hal Wears the same as the House Gaurds except that his helmet hangs from the hilt of his short sword and his surcoat bears a two headed hawk in forest green on the chest and his gauntlets each have a hawk engraved on them highlighted with gold.
Mirra wears a high necked gown in green silk slashed with red and enbroudered with gold.
((OSS: I'll leave Ellela to Deac.))
*Behind the three come two maids and a wizened old man with what appears to be an equally wizened walking stick.*

*Suddenlly as the group round a corner.*
L.Speaker: Attention All! Rebel forces have penetrated security, all personnel be advised, they are armed and dangerous.
Greer: I don't think we're going to be able to go out the way we came in. The lifts should be frozen, we could try climbing down the shafts.
*Greer forced one of the lift doors open revealing a shaft. The lift was frozen about 6 floors below*
Greer: If we can get down there, security should be laxer.
((BD: how about posting in PTH.))
Godsheim Station: Hangar Bay
*Once the republic entourage had finished exiting the corvette*
Valkryie: On the behalf of Lord Odin and the Ruling council I welcome you to Godsheim station. My name is Valda and for the time being will be your liason. I will show you to your staterooms shortly, but first would you introduce the rest of your party?
((Will post in PHT shortly.
Admiral: Huh? The Valkryie wants name for the maids?))
Hal: *Gestures to soldiers.* These are men of my personnal gaurd. *Gestures to old man.* This is Tyras Vas-Nescome. *Gestures with a very slight grimace.* These are my sister's maids.
-----------------------------------------
Dasken: Unless the lifts are wired. Then we could be fried in very short order.
*Pulls out gizmo.*
They look okay. Who wants to go first?
Greer: I'll go first and check for any guards.
*Greer went into the shaft and slowly climbed down. Once he arrived at the lift, he opened the roof panel and poked his head through.*
Greer: Looks clear.
*Greer jumped into the lift. Qwera went next.*

*Starr darts his head towards the doors of the hangar. Then, he delivers a flurry of blows to Irvine's saber, knocking him off balance. He kicks Irvine's saber out of his hand, then slashes him across the cheek, only close enough to leave a light burn*
Starr: Enough of this. Within minutes, when whoever is running this ship figures out that the maintenance droid entryways have been turned into slag, and their Vanguards are no longer responding, this hangar will be vented into space.

With Karathi fell ssome of the greatesst assassinss of the century.

((OOS: Deac, if there's something Riss [being another high-caliber Karathi assassin - remember from the RPG?] would know about Beler that hasn't been put in RPGs so far (or Beler's history before/after Karathi that Riss might know about), could you either PM it to me or have Gamma state it?

*Valda smiles*
Valda: Please come with me.
*Valda turns and starts walking down a corridor decorated with knot work. The Einherjar wait for the group to pass and take up flanking positions. Valda leads them down the corridor to a turbo lift large enough to fit the entire group and some more. In a couple of seconds the lift takes the group up into the grip and opens onto a large interior room. The room is blue with arched ceilings, there was indirect lighting giving the hall a warm and welcoming appearance, there are also eight doors. The room was furnished with a marble table in the center surrounded by 8 chairs. To the right were four large comfortable chairs arranged in a semi circle around a coffe table and facing a fire place. A monitor was also placed on top of the mantle
As Valda leads the group to the center of the room they pass another two einherjar standing on either side of the turbolift doors.*
Valda: This is the common room to your suite there are four bedrooms *pointing to the appropiate doors* and two rooms for your servants. The door opposite the turbolift leads to the rest of this level. There are computer terminals in each bedroom, you can access maps from there. The maps show you where you can go to eat, recreational areas, ect. All restricted areas are clearly makred on the map, and are guarded. If you decide to wander and get lost ask any Einherjar and they will escort you back here. There will also be two Einherjar on constant guard outside your suite.
If you need my assistance just ask the computer for me and I'll be here shortly, or you can ask the Einherjar for help. Tonight you will be dinning with Lord Odin and his family, dinner will be served an hour. If there are no questions I'll take my leave and return in forty minutes to take you to the Lord.

However their activity attracted other beingss from other dimenssionss to thiss one. When the Empire fell, the New Republic transsformed and took over many of their old projectss. Another little known fact about Beler Jil iss that he ssomehow ended up working for the NRI'ss ssecret Interdimenssional divission.

*F.Irvine is shown to the grand chapel. Above him is a huge obsidian statue of a four armed figure, each hand holding a different item. One hand is empty, the others hold various vials, computer disks,and the other a warhead. Mr Black can now be seen clearly kneeling below the statue.
He is a tall man, completely hairless with dark eyes and a gaunt face.He has a black five pointed star tatooed on his forehead*
Mr Black: Welcome. I suppose you deserve an introduction. I am Rishtag, High Priest of the Darkstar Cult.
*He stands, and turns to face Irvine*
*Caruso and Perez went after them. Once they reached the lift, they left it. Security was not so tight here, with all of them called to the floor they'd just left. Greer led them toward the exit, and with most civillian workers evacuating, they were mostly ignored*
