I'm a little out of practise writing long fight scenes so apologies if it seems sloppy or rushed :$ feel free to add or change anything about! XD I don't know what you had planned for specifically when you wanted to start your Voldon plot, but I had some possible thoughts here for how to get from here to there that I thought I'd jot down for discussion/tweaking? XD I imagine they'd contact Voldon to update him on the situation, perhaps he volunteers to come back out and assist them with whatever next step they decide to take? As for what that next step could be I had two different ideas: -So, Manus knows of this neutral Force user base now and that Ari and Bol are present there, understandably that makes their presence there potentially dangerous for the neutral Force users, particularly the youngest ones with little experience and such. Perhaps as a safety measure they suggest relocating the base to try and maintain secrecy again, so with Voldon's help the Qyaari aid in relocating them and perhaps training up some of the youngsters in case Manus and the Faceless reappear, while arranging to get more supplies out to them etc.? Of course being a master tactician I'm sure Manus can easily figure out where they have moved to after a little bit of time (I dunno...maybe 2 weeks or so?) he mobilizes another attack and of course once he hears Voldon is there he decides to join the raising party for lack of a better term, himself and then we can go ahead with that part of the plot when we get there? OR -Perhaps they are reluctant to make such a big move due to lack of resources/supplies/a suitable place to move to, so instead try to fortify their current complex a bit more with the Qyaari's help? Which could stump Manus for a while until he comes up with a solution to get around it and yadda yadda haha Thoughts? Or of course any other ideas you had that are totally different, I'd love to hear them too c:
