[ Luke paused again, taking a deep breath, before focusing on the camera again. ]
I think it would be wise to attempt to see where that town came from. If we can do that, I think we may be able to find where Atropos is; maybe even devise a way to defend against her.
Activating artifacts of her creation resulted in the Shimmer anomaly. Distorted reality run rampant over bodies and unprepared minds. Drawing her attention may prove to have similar effects.
[His own capabilities were repugnantly limited, compared to these beings.]
[ Luke took a deep breath, steadying himself. This was a dumb idea. This was the dumbest idea, dumber than allowing himself to be captured by stormtroopers in the middle of an Imperial occupied moon so he could be brought to his father. ]
My father and I are capable of frighteningly accurate visions. I believe being forced into one will allow me to see without the support that Lord Marr would provide.
[ The response may have been quick, but there's a finality to his voice that's hard to question. He has considered this, he knew this would come up, and he was well aware of the risks involved. ]
[ Especially when it came to someone that had all the presence of an Eldritch being. ]
Truth was such a useful tool. So many Sith had forgotten this, but he would not relinquish its power.]
Preparations must be made. Consider these facts. Make your decision in due time.
And remember: the Force creates bonds through emotion. If you near death, those who are bound to you will feel it. I will seek to hide our presence from our target, but I cannot guarantee your family will be so deceived.
[ Luke was very well aware just how badly this could go, both during the act itself and how his family could react to it. Still, despite that, there is a soft smile of gratitude on his face for Jadus taking his request seriously. ]
Let me know what I can do to help prepare. I'd like to do this in Jeopardy itself; I feel this would be the most effective there.
[ He paused a moment. ]
And don't worry about my family. I'll warn them.
[ He'll... warn them a few minutes ahead of time, then turn his communicator off, but he'll warn them! ]

Marr is gone. Without his innate power to control precognition, I am unable to prophesy in such a targeted manner.
