*She moved languidly into the bar and took a seat that was given up by one of the patrons for the lady. Her calm demeanor had captured the eye of several. When the bartender approached, she ordered her drink...but only after having to describe exactly how to make it. It seemed establishments like this weren't up to date on the newest drinks. It was one reason she preferred Nar Shaddaa to Ord Mantell. Listening in on the conversations, she seemed to fit right in. When her drink came, she began to make small talk with the bartender. At first it was harmless, but soon it was more in depth. He seemed less willing to answer some of her questions which only unnerved her. Giving up in frustration and refusing to reveal herself just yet, she turned around and then caught sight of her. It was the woman from the docks. Slipping out of her seat, she made her way towards her.*

*Catching sight of the woman from the bay Sayre showed no sign of recognition, instead she continued to eat her meal. It was the first decent meal she'd had in five weeks and she wasn't about to let it get interupted. A suble gesture kept Slab from hefting out his pulse hammer, she didn't want the woman deterred just yet. As she finished off the last of her salad she let the fork drop and looked up as the woman reached her table.*

*The woman looked friendly enough, but there was something in her eyes that made you not want to trust her. She smiled at Sayre for a moment before she spoke. The voice was firm but not unkindly.*
"Good morn. I saw you sitting over here and can't help but think you look familiar somehow. I could be wrong, but perhaps you could help me out..."

*Sayre grinned at the woman's words and even chuckled*
"What? You'd forget a blue skinned white haired woman like me? Most folks call me Ray. I don't think we've met before."
*She picked at the remains of her salad as she talked.*

*She smiled and sank down in the seat across from Sayre uninvited.*
"You could say that you seem familiar in another way. Ever hear of a woman by the name of Kyra Maans? She's long dead now....murdered so the bartender told me. Yet, he said there was a mishap here several years ago. A mishap involving Ms. Maans and a species called Danthiri..."

*She met the woman's gaze evenly, after a moment shaking her head*
"Never heard of either. Why the interest?"
*The fact someone was dredging up Kyra Maans did bother Sayre. The Danthiri in her all but howled. It was a trap as surely as she was sitting here but Sayre was more then just a Danthiri, much more.*

*She couldn't say more without raising even more suspicion. This woman was proving difficult. She was associated with the image of the one woman she had seen. She had to find out more of this Kyra Maans somehow and the Danthiri.*
"I must have been mistaken then. Sorry to interrupt your meal."
*Just as easily as she had sat down, she was to her feet and walking away. Her comlink was pulled out of her back pocket as she spoke to the droid aboard her ship. It was another conquest of hers*
"Find all the information you can of a Kyra Maans and the Danthiri. Contact me back on what you find."
*She heard the confirmation beeps and stepped out of the cantina heading back down the streets. If she wandered them enough probably something would just pop out at her again..or so she hoped.*

*For most people the woman's reaction would have been a time for a sigh of relief but Sayre wasn't most people. In fact this move was a sure way to get her interested. The woman knew enough to connect Kyra and the Danthiri which was more then most could put together back in the day from what uncle Rav said but to do it now nearly eight decades after the fact? It meant a mystery and that was like honey to a hungry bear. She grumbled, fidgeted but finally she spit out a curse and got up. She had to find out what the woman was after and that meant shadowing her. When she was little her uncle often played a game with her called Shadow and Seeker. The object was the Seeker looked for something the Shadow hid, while the Shadow followed the Seeker without getting caught. If the Shadow could follow the Seeker for a given amount of time before the Seeker found the object the Shadow won. She was VERY good at that game. She left the Slab and after a few questions to the folks she caught on to the woman's trail. She would shadow her and just see what happened.*

*She walked through the streets but felt no pull anywhere. Rajani was about to lose her patience and concentration when the words of her master rushed back at her.*
Your feelings can give you added perserverence and strength at certain times, while in others it can snare you like a trap and lead to your death. Follow your feelings but be wary of them. Seek and follow your anger, but don't let it consume you fully. You formulate these emotions and you can control them. The foolish force user acts without thinking. A wise one thinks at least 4 steps ahead and is prepared for anything.
*She begins to speak to yourself.* "Your secret is here somewhere, Maans. You drew me here for a reason.....what is it?"
*She stopped and closed her eyes. Something was closeby again. The force throbbed strongly. Anytime a powerful person in the force came through an area or even died, they left behind an imprint....few could feel them, but there were some who could. She breathed deeply if breathing of a sweet nectar. A final struggle was near this location. Turning to look back into the streets, she saw she had come very far. Turning her gaze forward towards the old structure that seemed to be barely standing, she moved towards it. A piece of the puzzle was inside there.*

*She spent an hour watching the woman walk around aimlessly. Sayre's curiosity became bordom. 'Watching Jawa's pick over garbage is more exciting.' she thought as she walked along after this woman. Finally with Sayre about to throw up her hands and leave the woman suddenly walks with purpose towards an old ruin of a building. 'Finally, something interesting.' She thought and moved along after her.*

*As she makes her way to the entrance, she pauses at the door and tries to open it. It seemed to be rusted shut. She let go of the handle and looked around before reaching through the Force to pull the bolts from the doorframe. She caught the door but buckled under the weight as she moved it to the side. Rajani grunted under the weight, but no one was around to witness anything. Had she fired at the door and it richocheted off, she would have drawn unwanted attention. Once the door had been safely put to the side, she stepped into the old building and immediately was plunged into darkness. Her eyes weren't accustom to it and took a while to adjust. She had thought to light one of her glowsticks, but thought better of it. Outside the suns were burning bright, if someone passed and saw a light, they would grow suspicious. She waited until her eyes were fully adjusted before she moved further inside. A creepy feeling caused the hairs on the back of her neck to stand up. It was as if someone was watching her. Was someone in the building or had she been followed? She moved quietly towards a stack of crates and hid behind them. If she was being followed, she would find out soon enough who was here.*

*She nearly revealed herself when she almost giggled at the sight of the woman handling the door. She watched her enter and soon Sayre was following. She had little problem with darkness but frowned when she saw no sign of the woman. She stood near the center of the room trying to decide where she went.*

*Quietly, as the follower had her back turned to her, she moved out from behind the crates and forward. If she was careful enough, she would be able to sneak right up to the girl and grab her while her hand went over her mouth. She had to know why the girl suddenly seemed so interested when she showed such disinterest in the cantina. Something was amiss.*

*The instant the hand went over her mouth she started to struggle. Stories of dark fiends that hid in the shadows to catch the unwary that she was told as a little girl rushed back to her making her struggle all the more. The wind in the room picked up rapidly as she tried to get the person off her*

*The girl was strong...stronger than she should have been. It was hard to keep a hold of her, but it became much harder as what seemed to be wind picked up. Her eyes were wide as she let go of the woman and backed away from her. What sort of witchery was this?*
"Leave now while your life is your own."
*She had to investigate this building. The echoes were growing stronger in her mind. The girl was interfering and they were beginning to fade. She couldn't let that happen.*
