So after remembering where we were, I have a few ideas on how to progress and would love your suggestions/input on how to modify them: -I'd like to expose some of the more sympathetic figures in Manso's network on Tattoine as a way of contrasting the Qyaari and highlighting the fact that the galaxy is still fractured. To that end it might be cool to have Ari/Yerbol resolve some threat to the network(maybe sand people raiding the settlement? Mercenaries sent by local Hutts who felt jaded by the network due to not paying protection money? Don't know that bit yet). I'd also like to shed light on Manus' supply diverting, which leads me to this... -When the delivery of supplies is made and the side threat dealt with, Kartan and Vaerth find that the once touted "fully stocked" outpost has been slowly running out of basic rations and weaponry. The Force users there have been trying to figure out why their supply drops had been getting more scant, which then cues Yerbol and Aria's revelation about Manus' hoarding. I'd assume Kartan/Vaerth would still be skeptical, but willing to help more so than before. -While Yerbol and Aria are on Tattoine, the Council receives reports from the Alliance intelligence outpost on Zinuthra that across Outer Rim space there have been reports of widespread chaos. Mercenary groups and terrorist cells are turning up dead along with civilians and Alliance squadrons stationed there. Two Qyaari scouting parties also went dark on (insert outer rim planet). These attacks, of course, are coordinated by Manus in order to instigate distractions for he and Jean to move undetected throughout the Outer Rim. -The chaos would get so out of hand that some of the Elders would insist on coming to help Alliance squadrons/personnel and Qyaari forces. This leaves Zinuthra depleted, leading to a two pronged attack: 1. The outer rim world that the Qyaari scouts disappeared on is the trap laid for Yerbol, Aria and the Elder who accompanies them(I'd like for it to be Voldon for...well, I'll get to that). They land, get shot down and are surrounded by Faceless/Manus and Jean. 2. Zinuthra is then attacked by more Faceless platoons that emerge from hyperspace, taking the planet off guard. In trap one...well, I've been thinking about this for a while and I think it would be in Voldon's character to attempt to hold off as many as he could to get survivors off world. Which means that he'd die. ... I know, I know! Killing an Elder is not what I'd like to do, but I think he would serve as a good martyr for the Qyaari. Well, that's all I got for now. What do you think?
