As the boarding ramp was lowered, River stepped off the ship, and once he was on the ground he waited for Tal to come off the ship.

Tal tentatively followed Master Moonflow down the ramp. Truth be told, she didn't feel half as confident about this as she might like. Pulling on her Jedi robe, her eyes swept over the space port. Bustling and plenty of people, just like any
And she could sense Something. She didn't know what that Something was, but it definetely felt bad. Evil. That was the word. Tal shivered involuntarily. It was like nothing she had ever sensed before- a dark blackness, like the hole that was left when a star exploded.
Tal shook the thoughts from her mind, and looked up at her Master. "Whats next?"

River began to walk to the port master, and replied back at Tal "Now, we go look for leads. The best place to start is the Iziz Cantina."
The port master looking at River said "Master Jedi, here is your starport visa. Be sure not to lose it or you won't be able to leave Iziz." and the port master handed River a starport visa. Taking it, River placed it in a pocket of his robe, and looking back at Tal said "Let's go find us some cult members Tal."

Tal swallowed and nodded, still trying to curb her nervousness. She followed Master Moonflow towards a large, loud building. never having been in such a place, Tal didn't particularly want to go there, and would have denied the chance, but business was business after all.

River walked up the ramp, and nodding at the Aqualish bouncer, he entered the Cantina. The Cantina was packed with people and many waiters and waitresses were scurrying around trying to deliever the orders to each patron.
River spotted the person he was looking for, a man named Tskar Jefrat, and walked over to him, motioning for Tal to follow him. "Tskar" began River "it has been to long. Have you any news on the Sons Of Kressh?"

Tal followed him over. She stopped just behind him, and folded her hands inside her robe sleeves. Letting her eyes wander over the cantina interior, she watched the various people come and go. So many species...not any she hadn't seen before really, but definetely a few she still found interesting, duing to their scarcity in the temple.

Tskar nodded and said "It has been too long River. Who's she? What happened to Tionne?" River said "Tionne is scouting out a different part of Iziz, Tskar. This is my new apprentice Talarian or as she likes to be called Tal. So Tskar, what of the Sons Of Kressh?"
Tskar sat down, and picking up his mug of Juma juice, said "The Sons Of Kressh are stationed here in Iziz. In the old tomb of Freedon Nadd, underneath the Royal Palace. Getting in will be very difficult. No one knows how the Sons Of Kressh got inside the palace, but now they are holed up in there."
River thought a moment and said "That is quite a difficult task. What do you think my young apprentice?" and River looked at Tal and waited for her anwser.

Tal had been busy watching a couple Twi'Leks who were busily negotiating something over cups of something brown. She came back to herself as she felt her Master's eyes on her. Turning her head, she blushed as she realized he had spoken to her. "I'm sorry Master, I wasn't...I wasn't listening." she admitted quietly.

"I was asking about what you thought about the Sons Of Kressh hiding in the old tomb of Freedon Nadd, underneath the Onderonian Palace. So what do you think?" asked River again

"Sounds like a place they would hide." Tal said, at a loss for anything else to say. She smiled nervously up at him.

"Tal" said River seriously "to be a Jedi you need to block out outside distractions and focus on the task at hand. Tskar, where is Nevai?"
Tskar smiled and said "I will be here for about a week, before I head to Dantooine. Nevai is in a private room here in this Cantina. It was good seeing you again old friend." River smiled at Tskar and said "Thank you Tskar. It was good seeing you again."
River walked away from Tskar's table and headed past a group of male Devaronians speaking fast in their native language. Eventually, River made a right and headed into a room that was flanked by two bodyguards. One of the guards stared at River and said "Master Jedi, I'm sorry but Nevai asked not to be disturbed."
River looked at the guard and said "I am a friend of Nevai's. Go ask him, the name is River Moonflow." the bodyguard looked at River, and turned and walked into the room. A few moments later, the bodyguard reemerged and said "Very well. Nevai said you may enter." River strode past the bodyguard, and motioning for Tal to follow him, told the bodyguard "Thank you."
Sitting on a chair, with greying hair was Onderonian Noble Nevai Liarkin. Nevai looked up and smiled when he saw River "River, never thought I would see you again. What brings you to Onderon?" River sat down across from Nevai and said "The Sons Of Kressh, Nevai. I need to get into Freedon Nadd's old tomb under the Palace. Can you help me?" Nevai thought a moment and said "Of course River." and turning to face Tal said "What's your name?"

Tal silently nodded in response to River's reprimand. She followed him across the cantina without further distraction. When they got inside the room, she closely studied the room. As the man asked a question, Tal shook herself from her rapt study, and quietly answered. "Talarian sir."

Nevi smiled and said "Nice to meet you Talarian." and looking back at River, Nevi said "River we need to leave for the Palace soon. You just have enough time to gather some supplies if you wish, or we could leave now?" River looked at Tal, and said "I'm fine Nevi. Tal do you require anything?"

"No Master." Tal answered quietly. She shifted position slightly, putting more weight on her one leg, and glanced around the room again. She was eager to get going. This cantina or whatever it was gave her the creeps.

"Very well. Nevai, we are ready to leave to the Palace, whenever you are." said River. Nevai nodded, and satanding up said "I'm ready. Let's go." replied Nevai leaving the room. Nevai's bodyguards made to follow him, but Nevai looked at them and and said "This Jedi is more than capable of protecting me. Return to the Palace, I will join you there shortly." River followed Nevai out of the Cantina and out of the Merchant's Quarter for the Onderonian Palace.

Tal closely followed River through the cantina and back out onto the street. She had an odd feeling about this...as if something were wrong. It didn't feel right, exactly. Glancing up at River, she wondered if he'd sensed it. But he was totally relaxed. She decided to stop worrying and be calm. Nothing would go wrong. She'd see.

River followed Nevai to the Sky Ramp, where Onderonian soldiers stopped them. Though seeing it was Nevai leading them, they allowed them to pass after only a few seconds delay. As River passed a guard, the guard said "Don't try anything Master Jedi. We're watching you." Nevai navigated them around the Sky Ramp, until they finally came to the door that would lead into the Palace. Nevai typed something on a console, and the door slid open. Following Nevai, River entered the Palace.

Tal slipped through as well. She had narrowed her mind on one goal- finding these people they were searching for. There was no room for anything else. She looked down the dimly lit corridor, straining to see. Nothing. Nothing she could sense either....except that odd, horrible feeling of mis-placement.

River looked around, and began to feel as if something was wrong. As if something terrible was about to happen, but River knew not what it was. Looking back at Tal he said "Can you feel it my young apprentice?"

Tal felt herself sicken as the import of his words sunk in on her. She soundlessly nodded, her stomach seeming to settle down into a deep pit. If he, a Master, had sensed something, it couldn't just be foolish youngling fancy. She put her hand inside her robe, letting her fingers make contact with the cool metal of her lightsaber. Reflexively, they curled around it, and Tal kept the grasp strong. Just in case. ((OOC: just so you know, the tomb of Freedon Nadd is on Dxun, and oneof the Dark Jedi is currently searching for it. ))
