After deciding to leave Nar Shaddaa in the Wake of his Masters Death, Galen Pavan had decided that returning to Tython would be a terrible idea. Hearing about the desecration of the Jedi Order and the possibility that He alone could be the last Jedi, He decided to go into hiding. He had gathered his fallen Masters Lightsaber and belongings and, with what little currency he had, boarded a ship and left. Not returning to Nar Shaddaa at all.

Months after the fall of Tython, Galen had made himself a home on Odessen. Not knowing very much about the planet, and only learning about it through the various stops after leaving Nar Shaddaa, He had made a small home for himself. He managed to get into a small colony and started to make a living for himself. Doing odd jobs around the colony to keep himself afloat, He had created an alias, Aric Jorgan. "Aric" was known as a tinkerer. Anything that had become broken or in disrepair "Aric" would be called upon to fix or salvage for parts.

Galen had managed to get away here and there and travel up a Mountain that was about 3 miles from the settlement. When he managed to get away, he would bring his lightsaber, his masters old lightsaber, supplies and whatever else he would need for a few days of retreat, and train himself. For hours he'd sit up on that mountain ledge and train with his own lightsaber. Offensive and Defensive stances, Perries, attacks and so on. Sometimes he would attempt to use both lightsabers and that would prove to end terribly. He would slightly burn himself with attempting to master using 2 sabers at once.

A Week or so later, Galen had gathered enough currency to venture out a bit more into Odessen. Gathering his equipment, his sabers and whatever else he needed, he'd travel by foot through the dense Forests. Cutting away obstacles in his path with a vibro blade, He stop every so often to mentally map where he was. Of course it was nothing but trees and wooded areas. He had found a clearing one evening and decided to make camp. He had been gone now at least 2 or 3 days and after sleeping on tree branches and rocks, This clearing was perfect. He had set up a make shift tent and as the sun was setting, Galen noticed something shining about 30 yards away

Galen had gotten up and made his way over to the shining object. When he got closer, he noticed it was some sort of door that had been taken over from the shrubbery. Galen grabbed his lightsaber and held it tightly within his grp and activated the blade. That familiar hum and the glow of yellow off the metallic surface had flooded memories back into his brain...........

"Watch yourself Galen! Do not let this scum manage to divert you from the Objective! Go!!!!" Screamed Galens Master. The Sith had ignited his lightsaber. Galen could remember as if it was yesterday, that Crimson glow covering his eyes and then the blue hue of his Masters Lightsaber flooding with the red creating a Purpleish flash. Then all Galen could remember was a massive push and being flung and slammed, hard, against that durasteel wall. He tried to get up. He tried to regain his composure, but alas, it was too late. The Sith moved onto the Offensive and bested his Master. He pierced his masters chest and then kicked him tot he ground. Galen tried to get up, tried to do his thing, tried to activate his own lightsaber, but it was too late. The Sith walked over to him and picked him up using the force. He looked at him and smiled, tossing him over the edge of where the walk way had ended. Some how, Some way, Galen Survived..........

Galen blinked and proceeded to cear away the brush. He noticed a entrance to what seemed to be some sort of Old Base. With out hesitation, Galen had thrusted that Yellow blade into the Durasteel door and began to cut slowly away at it. After a few minutes, He had cut away enough to squeeze into what seemed like a base. He had managed to cut into the main corridor. Using his Saber as light, he looked about the corridor. Arrows had pointed to the various parts of what he thought was a base.

Galen had turned down the corridor which read "HANGAR" and made his way into a WIDE open space. Nothing had been in this hangar for sometime. The vast emptiness left Galen simply uninterested. He made his way back out and looking at the wall he saw the words "CONTROL ROOM". Galen slowly made his way towards the direction of the control room. Maybe, Just maybe could he find some answers as to what was here, or maybe a droid. Nothing would tell what he would run into........

As Galen made his way towards that control room, his head began to fill with thoughts. Thoughts of his Brothers and Sisters in the Order after the desecration of Tython. He hadnt really dealt with it much but the complete silence of this place had all his thoughts trolling. Galen shook his head and proceeded on. That yellow color of his saber was still glowing bright. He looked to his left and to his right, the corridor had told him the control room was down the hall on the right.

After he had made his way down that Hall, he had come to the control room door. He looked to his right and then to his left to see now control panel to open the door. Skeptical he pushed on it, Nothing. Galen looked around. He was dumbfounded. Maybe this would have been a sensory door? He looked up. There it was. a Sensor to scan possibly badges or facial scans, either way, only way into this room was either cutting his way through or finding a badge.

Galen positioned his Lightsaber just right. As he began to push the saber into the Durasteel, a blast door came crashing down. Caught off Guard he stumbled back, slightly shocked. "Well, i guess i'm not getting in there any time soon" Galen had moved his lightsaber again so it positioned to give him some light. He made his way passed the Control room and down into what looked like Quarters of sorts. Clothes, Boots and various different garments had been scattered every where. It was as if everyone just up and left in a rush. Galen walked fully into the area to see, what looked like, a mummified corpse.

Galen, caught slightly off guard, AGAIN by something in this base, kneeled down and inspected the body. Blaster scortch marks had been on the skin. Galen got up and looked at the walls, The Same. As if something or some one attacked these people and then looked for something in particular and then left. Galen had scratched his head and walked back down the main corridor. Finding Nothing, Galen decided it was time to head out. He made his way back towards the main area where he entered when he noticed the control room was open.

"Strange" Galen slowly made his way into the control room. He moved his lightsaber around to get a better illumination on things. He walked over to the main computer and pulled up the holocams. Galen noticed the quarters and the opposite hallway a group of Troopers had infiltrated the are and began killing everyone in site. Galen watched. Galen noticed a strange symbol on one of the Victims arms. A tattoo of sorts. Galen quickly grabbed a shot of it and stored it on his datapad. Galen looked to his left to see a Power rely was missing. Lights and all that had been disconnected. All other power had been there.

Galen made his way out of the Control room and head back towards the area where he entered. When arriving to the entrance, he exited. He looked around and figured it would be good to investigate the outer perimeter of the base. He moved through the brush. He stopped a second and looked at the symbol he had pulled up. "
This Symbol has to be year old. Like 2000 standard years old? I wonder what it means. I need to get into databank." Galen continued on. maybe the base had one on the other side. He made his way what looked like the North side of the base. He looked to see a roadway. Strange. Galen noticed a few people standing around and when they saw him, they scattered. Galen stopped and scanned the area.........
