Re: Chapter One (Ground Team): Into the Manor
"Right. We won't let them get in your way, either." The warning is enough to keep her from flinching away, too, "If it comes down to it, we can assist with the fight against the Dark Jedi, too."
Darth Imperius has every edge here. She set the map. She called for many of the pieces to be in place, and it's her allies who are moving ahead of schedule, not her enemies. Seely, on the other hand, can't see half of the board, was placed by a third party who didn't know half of the board either, and doesn't have the luxury of dragging her feet if things go badly. Worse, this is the enemy's side of the board.
Time for a hurry up offense. If they can just secure Hector and Oriana, they'll be able to stay alive a little longer. That leads them ahead to what to do about the daughter and others. That, like the others said, can certainly be a trap, too. She'll have to make her own decision about the course of action when they get there. For now, sadly, she'll have to maintain her neutrality until she can gather more intelligence...
"Our objective, after defeating any hostiles and dealing with any Dark Jedi, is to make sure Hector and Oriana are still alive. I don't care if we can trust them or not, they're the closest thing we've got to allies here and we're the closest thing they've got to allies here. If they decide that they want to make lines and leave us behind, we'll find another way off of this rock, Sith daughter, Force sensitives, or none. Understood?"
