Joined by Maximilian Kraat, you search the remains of his starship for any useful parts. indeed, you find some useful parts which you can use to repair the Ebon Hawk. T7-K8 use it's computer skills to repair the ship, using the parts you brought. (Computer skills success, +100 XP for T7-K8)
While the ship is being repaired, James Fox asks you why you always wear a mask.
"It is to hide my disfigured face. The Sith are sadistic. They captured me once, but did not kill me instantly. Instead, they used their lightsabers and blasters to disfigure my face. This gave me the chance to escape. But my face now resembles that of a beast. I am forced to wear a mask."
James Fox was going to ask you more questions, when Maximilian Kraat rushed into the room to inform you of T7-K8's success. James Fox runs to the ship's cockpit. The Ebon Hawk takes off and goes into hyperspace.
After a few days, your ship reaches the planet of Carleria, an Outer Rim world that resembles in many ways Hoth, as it's surface is covered by ice. The Ebon Hawk lands on a Republican base. When you get out of the ship, hundreds of Republican soldiers surround you but you manage to persuade them that you are a Jedi.
You go to the General in Command of the Republican Forces, William Arthur. You inform him of the situation. Although he does not seem to trust you very much, as you are the last known Jedi, he has to rely on you or the Republic will be doomed.
James Fox finds the chance to ask how did the Sith managed to amass such a huge armada with which they could invade the Republic.
"A secret Sith organization, formed by the remnants of the old Sith, was secretly recruiting Jedi on it's cause for hundreds of years while establishing war factories in remote areas of the old Sith Empire, in which they would construct war ships and droids. A few years ago, the Jedi Council sensed their presence and send two of the most promising Jedi to find out about the truth behind the rumors about this organization. Alexander and Michael, as those two Jedi were known, indeed found out about this organization. But instead of reporting to the Jedi Council, they massacred the old Sith, the leaders of the organization, and forced the rest members of the organization to accept them as the organization's new leaders. They took control of both the fallen Jedi and the Sith war factories and prepared for an all out war of conquest of the Republic. Unlike the old Sith, who had waited for centuries and wanted to coup the Republican leadership from the inside, Alexander and Michael did not wait. They used the recruited to the Sith cause Jedi and the already constructed starships and droids to invade the Republic. They took the names Darth Iobos and Darth Venius and became the Dark Lords of the Sith. As Alexander was the most powerful, he was recognized as the leader. The Sith conquered one planet after the other. The Jedi found themselves split as many of their members had joined this organization. On the Battle of Tatooine, the entire Republican fleet was crushed by a pincer movement of the Sith fleet, which was led by Darth Iobos himself. Coruscant was bombed to the ground and all Jedi who remained loyal to the order were hunted down and exterminated to the last. Darth Venius organized a Special Army Group made up of Sith Commandos and Dark Jedi with connections with the Exchange which would hunt down the remaining Jedi. You and the old man seem to be the last Jedi. Only you can liberate the Galaxy from the Sith and defeat their Darkness."
You manage to persuade him to accept Julla the Hut's offer about the selling of weapons and then you say to him: "As you know, Dirla is the most important shipyard of the Sith Empire. It is protected by a huge laser shield and most Sith ship factories are based on that planet. If that planet is captured, then you will be able to construct a new Republican fleet to face the Sith."
"Impossible! I do not have the men to risk an attack on that Sith stronghold."
"You are wrong. The Sith are being deceptive. They have very few soldiers guarding the shipyard while their main forces are in the Core worlds or searching for Republican remnants to exterminate. They rely on it's fame as a very important to the Sith world to protect Dirla. Knowing the importance of that shipyard, one would assume that the Sith would have millions of troops on that planet. So any prospective attacker would be afraid to attack. That's why they are so secretive about this planet and the workers of the factories based on that planet usually do not leave the planet alive."
"But still, the laser shield will not allow any of our ships to land on that planet."
"The shield is made up in such a way as to protect the planet from a huge invasion. A single ship could bypass the shield through a weak part of the shield, land on the Sith base and it's crew could deactivate the shield."
"How do you know all of this?". William is afraid of being lured into a trap.
"I captured a Sith Commando who had served on Dirla and he told me everything. Of course, if you do not trust me, you may not attack. You can stay here on this icy cold planet and wait for the Sith to come."
William has no choice but to accept your plan.
Option A. Fly with the Ebon Hawk to Dirla to deactivate the laser shield.
Option B. Search around the base for anything interesting to do.
