- All sounds good on the first two points to me! Pretty sure there was some sort of terminal thing there too XD though heavens knows how/why the Rakata built it up there...

 - Love the idea of the door being locked to everyone except those who have/had a Force bond too. Seems like something they would engineer for sure XD

- an interlude sounds VERY appropriate, as you say they never really got a chance for one between last act and this one, and they've got a LOT to process and deal with. Poor Bol especially seems like he needs one D: (Awww Ethan, Buddy, she's waaaaayy too old for you XD I'm not sure on Ari there, I think she'd be too worried about Yerbol to leave him on his own for very long in all honesty XD she can tell something is off and the fact that he doesn't know/can't even tell her what it is either is understandably very concerning for her haha XD)

- Well, we completely turned all the Lore on its head for Act I, so I'm super looking forward to seeing where we go from here with this act. Does almost feel like a separate "Chapter" (or series, even, if we're thinking in terms of TV shows and so forth lol) to the other three acts *excited flailing*

Ooohh Kira! Nah, why not, I say let's have her tag along, poor girl Dx might give her the closure she needs too? (plus, and I do stand corrected but I'm sure she hasn't?) no one has seen her since she ran off after Voldon died, so it would be SO Kira, as you say, to pop up out of the blue again with some kind of crazy scheme.

Sounds like a good outline so far! What do you think? :')
