"Still... She was either being reckless or playing a complicated game by letting us know she's a darksider, too."

Permalink

"Both are things darksiders are known for."

Permalink

"True enough."

"Did she say anything else to you, beyond what was in the report – ?"

Permalink

Elesse shakes her head. "No, that was all."

Permalink

She nods. "Can you show me where the fight happened? And what direction they came from initially."

Permalink

Yep. They can follow the Jedi Masters out the door and then split off for the scene of the altercation.

Permalink

She identified the site once they're on the street, even before Elesse can point it out – and then she says, "A shatterpoint happened here recently... I can trace this back, I think..."

Permalink

"Need any help?"

Permalink

"Help wouldn't go amiss."

Permalink

They can pool their senses, then.

Permalink

They're able to follow the trail of the captured darksider, but... Meinwen can tell when he encountered the one that got away, but she can't sense where that one came from. 

Permalink

Does Elesse have any better luck there? She has a more direct connection to the person.

Permalink

...Maybe? She's getting a vague hunch, at least, almost like a whisper.

Permalink

Vague hunch is better than nothing. Which way?

Permalink

Towards the spaceport, maybe?

Permalink

"Let's try the spaceport," Elesse says. "Might have records, if we're lucky."

Permalink

She nods. "The chance even one of them - let alone both - is local is fairly low, after all."

Permalink

And as they get closer, Elesse will see if she has a feeling about any of the bays in particular.

Permalink

Not exactly a feeling – given she glimpses a very familiar ghost leaning against a particularly nondescript craft, one tucked away from casual eyes or, perhaps more importantly, any cameras.

Permalink

Mngh. All right. What's the log have to say about that one?

Permalink

It seems it's been there only a few days, though the captain had registered a departure date/ time of late the night before, and there's unanswered stern warnings about fees. This port doesn't do much to verify identities, but they were sent a license whose picture matches the captured darksider.

Permalink

They should be able to wrangle that into jurisdiction for a forced boarding. Dump the navcomp, see where he's been.

Permalink

He's scrubbed much of it.

...Also, Elesse and Meinwen aren't the only ones to access this in the last couple of hours. There's traces of another guest user being given permission for a forced boarding and then going through the same files as them.

Permalink

Security logs?

Permalink

It takes some persuasion to get ahold of actual camera footage (none of the logs have anything entered formally), but... 

It seems the darksider who got away beat them here - and no one seems to have seen anything at all strange about her just walking into the security office.
