Smakrtos
        •       Young Arys, I can see that you are upset, but you must externalize your feelings.

Arys Cele
        •       Smakrtos, I simply cannot understand what we are doing here. This planetary swamp has shown us nothing but large insects and even larger birds. We have been traveling for seven rotations now, and still, we haven’t found even a trace of the ancient civilization we’ve been searching for since our arrival on Batuu.

Smakrtos
        •       Well, you need to look closer, Arys. Look within yourself and find that sense of direction that gives us impulse. This is not only present in those most sensitive to the Force, for it has a bond with everyone. And this bond is expressed in feelings.

Arys Cele
        •       But if that were true, it would have already guided us to what we long to find, and we could have spared ourselves this pointless walk.

Smakrtos
        •       You’re not wrong in that, my friend, for without a doubt, our walk has been senseless. But at the same time, you must see that you are the one leading it. It’s not an insult, but rather advice to bring sense to your journey because the Force is not only present on this planet, it is intense. Someone sensitive to the Force might say so based on their sensitivity to it, but you and I can notice it with our own eyes. Nature here has thrived and has filled every other thing that civilization has tried to impose. Just as you see it in the fireflies that glow brightly at night, or in the large size of the birds, or in the thick fog that prevents us from seeing today what we saw yesterday. Close your eyes. Open your mind and visualize where we are heading, young Arys.

S0-D4
        •       Certainly, we should be vigilant, my scanners detect…

Smakrtos
        •       I’ll interrupt you right there, S0, as it’s crucial that Arys can see it for himself.

Arys Cele
        •       I think I see it, to our right. It’s the only thing my being can push me to feel.

Smakrtos
        •       Stay and observe, we’ll walk to our right, and soon you’ll regain that sense of direction that we’ve been missing.

--

        •       As you can see, my friends, we have finally arrived at the destination that led us to find the Force within ourselves and in our senses.

Tima Mantine
        •       But Smakrtos, your senses are more refined than mine or Arys’s, even more refined than S0’s. Why wait so long to reveal what the Force had in store for us?

Smakrtos
        •       You see, brave Tima, this ability is not superhuman in any way, but only lacks confidence in oneself and trust in us being a conduit for the Force to know where it guides us. This knowledge I possess would be useless to you or me if I did not share it.

Smakrtos
        •       Now find your way through the temple, seek every piece of information we can gather for the archive. S0, scan the structure of the place. Let’s continue exploring my friends.
