Yakhana noticed the sudden change to Rhian. She could feel something pouring from her soul. Inside Yakhana debated to ask if something was wrong. Without even thinking another thought she asked, "Hey, Rhian. Is something troubling you?"

Rhian bit her lip and frowned. "It's weird. I've been having visions, of Jedi fighting, and of a giant space station." It wasn't exactly what most people would call normal. Carth certainly wouldn't, she involuntarily thought. Who's Carth? There had been a certain familiarity about the way she had thought it too, and all these things that were going on inside her head were really starting to freak her out.

"Ben this is Cluge Cellenoth. He's one of Tiana Elass' Padawans." Eisley smiled down at her friend, glad to see he was well. It didn't look as if they would get that promised talk. Not with all these people around. She touched his hand briefly and then moved closer to Xaria. "The girl is right. Now that I think on it, it would be wiser to start here. Deal with the problem before attacking the source. Sometimes symptoms must be dealt with first." She tapped her fingers on her chin thoughtfully for a moment. "Obviously they won't listen to a diplomatic solution so we will have to engage in agressive negotiations. Perhaps that will encourage them to bargain with us.

"Uhh hello! You were thinking that! Force a guy can't make an innocent comment every once in awhile." Anakin hurried to catch up with the yet as un named girl. "Hey, you new around here or just visiting? I thought I knew pretty much everyone in the Temple. The name's Anakin. Who're you?"

The news combined with his first-hand experience was a bit troubling. If the Ewoks were actually limited by their lack of technology, they wouldn't present a problem, but they're a strangely innovative peop--
Obi-Wan's mind blanked out for a moment; he was thankful his face did not.
"Cellenoth?" he managed finally.
Get yourself together. There's an attack being made on the Temple by a rare and insane yet seemingly ingenuous species. There will be time to worry about family connections later.
Every time I think that, there never turns out to be any time. At least this isn't a situation that will disappear on me in the space of a moment. He tried to sit up a little before the pain that darted through his side discouraged the movement; with a slight wince, he relaxed back down. "I don't suppose anyone would know what it is the Ewoks want, or their motivation for apparently going to war in the first place?"

Xaria had to grin at 'agressive negotiations'. The phrase had been tossed around a lot after Anakin started spicing his hero tales with it...Sweet, she thought, and then became immediatly confused. What was that supposed to mean? And why did it she have a feeling that it meant the human with glasses from her vision wasn't dying anymore and had suddenly had an idea for a new movie?
Kit looked interestingly at Xaria because of her reply. He'd like to fight her...they'd probably be grinning at each other the whole time. Instead he composed himself a little and suggested to the crowd, "Come on, give Obi a little room. We know he's used to rabid fans at his bedside, but not in the Temple." Then, shrug. "Ewoks are not a sane species. Do we have any as Jedi? Perhaps infiltration...or someone could just convince an Ewok that they're an Ewok for reconnaisance." He laughed a little.

"My lightsaber's back on Ord Mantell, and since my hand got... offed," he felt a fire in his arm of the mere memory of the pain, "I'm pretty much useless in a fight. Although, Niman does use two handed fighting, so If I could get a crash-course in that style, I could be of some use."
He hated being useless, especailly now that he was unarmed and... unhanded. He chuckled aty his own joke.
"Cellenoth?" he heard Obi-Wan call.
"It was a suprise to me, too. We can talk more if we get some time, Knight Obi-Wan."
He called him that to leave the awkwardness out of his voice. He didn't want to freak him out either.

"I do not know why they are here or what they want." A quick shiver went up and down her side. "Agressive negotiations may have to take place. Though, the idea of trying to get an Ewok to spy for us does sound like a good plan. We could use some information to help us out here." She sighed. The thought of going back to Endor didn't quite go well with her. Yakhana let the thought slid out of her mind to focus back to here with this currect problem.

"Trust me, Ewoks are easy to get a spy for, compared to Jawas. They are hard enough to listen to, much less bribe."

Channi felt that now might be a good idea to ask the question: "How exactly are we going to get a Ewok willing to spy for us when they all seem to be attacking everyone?"

"Simple." Jaden replied, even though the question wasn't exactly aimed at her. "Set up an ambush in one of the halls, and capture a few of them, though probably no more than three. Keep them each separated from the others, and 'interrogate' them that way. I'm willing to lead a team to do the job, or anything else someone might want me to do." She continued.
Since it's not exactly fun standing with other Jedi that don't even know you or want you around. She added as an afterthought to herself.

Throwing a glance at the teenager chasing after her, Ariane sighed to herself pitifully. It was a shame that everyone had to insist on trying to make her a Mary-Sue. Once she woke up (or if this was real, therefore once she got back) she was going to avoid all dangerous fandoms for a while.
"Look, Skywalker, no matter how famous you are, you can't know everyone. I'm Ariane. Master Calthye-Elass," she added as a second thought.
***
A team of rogue Ewoks scaled their way into the council chamber, only to be faced by a vicious, short and green NPC. Yoda stared across at them and laughed slightly to himself. Raising one hand, he waved it in front of their faces. The Ewok's eyes narrowed. "Ooooooh..."
One by one, they collapsed with a fading "Yup nub."
Outside of Yoda's senses, the rest of the party gasped in horror and climbed back up to the roof to plot maliciously..

"So, where and when is this going to happen? I say A.S.A.P. at the Room of a Thousand fountains, they might think it reminds them of home."

Rhian let the Jedi talk. She tried to fix her wrist chronometer, looking around to see if she could see any other time-measuring devices. When she didn't see any in plain sight, she decided to let the matter drop. It wasn't that important.
Psychotic Ewok Commandos were that important.

Yakhana's eye began to twitch. "You Jedi are all the same. Must you argue for days before getting something done? Spies will never work. They travel in packs. I have seen so. Even if we do manage to get a few, how does one truely know where their loyalty lies? We must take action now. That is the simple act of all." She took a deep breath. "If there are any other Jedi who are alone is this temple, then they are in danger. One cannot fight a horde of them all at once. Stay in a group, at least three. The medlab should be our base, we have supplies here. Since you Jedi know this place better than I, around the border put some traps. It should help keep the lines at bay. If no one else is ready to do battle and stop talking then lets go. A few of you go find the other Jedi. If you have others across the galaxy then bring them here. We need all the help that we can get. Right... Communications, Search and Rescue, and a group to lay down some traps. That should be enough."

Xaria nodded at the rather dark unknown person. "I'll go." She did not bother to cringe from her master's possible beration. "I can lay traps. Or kill a sizeable amount of belligerent furballs."
Kit glanced at Kenobi, waiting for his reply in this moment of decision...

Obi-Wan raised a hand. "Hold. There's reason to both of these proposals, but neither interrogation nor outright attack may be absolutely necessary. We aren't aware of the Ewoks' motive, which is a disadvantage, but it doesn't need to be a significant one. Better to begin convincing them they never had a motive to begin with. It will take some time for their uncertainty to spread if their numbers are as large as I suppose they might be, but it'll spare unneeded bloodshed. This Temple is supposed to be a sanctuary, not a warground."
He paused for a deep breath, noting there was somewhat less of a twinge in his side when he did so. "But none of that will work without people gifted in persuasion. There's the language barrier to overcome. Not impossible, but we won't be able to use words, and neither do we want to show ourselves."

(I'm gonna be gone all next week. Feel free to have Xaria follow whatever group is going to kill thingsand join them in that pursuit, but no more godmodship than that, except by Eisley.)

"Well, I'd prefer to try to reverse the situation. We have the Force, right? Ewoks are very singleminded mammals. With a learned Force User, we could convnice thier leader to leave, and the others will follow. We could then send a group to track them and see if they can overhear what they're planning."

"Then what? We'll have to deal with them anyways. They'll either go back to Endor or come back here. We are going to Endor after this. To see what's wrong. Better to deal with a small amount while we still can." Yakhana's eye gave a small twitch. "We have the advantage here right? You know this place better than they do. The same goes for them while they're at Endor. But if these two thousand or so go there... that's more to deal with in their turf compaired to ours. We must take advantage of our surroundings."

Cluge sighed. The point had merit. He didn't want to fight because he could not, but he didn't want to go chasing them around the galaxy. And he certainly diodn't want to leave Obi-Wan, just realizing his true heritage. He had to find out what drove Lathania and Obi-Wan apart. Maybe he could repair the gap between them by being the tie that binds.
