“A tomb?” she echoed, her voice half-question and half-statement. “It makes sense. And if the holocron has been left here, who knows what unsuspecting souls may have come across it and fed it, increasing its power.”
She sighed audibly and looked around. “Traps are common in these places,” she waved a hand at the undead she’d faced, “and take many forms. And the mental ones are the most challenging. The Dark-side can play tricks with you. Get inside your head and pluck out your greatest fears – and then magnify them. And…and here is the clever part…it presents the Dark-side as the solution. Which is a lie, but an enticing and seductive one.”
“Part of me wants to leave here immediately and the rest wants to remain and deal with the spirit that resides here – to ensure nobody else falls for its lure.”
“But I feel you are the reason we are here, not me. Therefore, it is you that needs to decide what we do next. This is your path we are walking, not mine.”
