Mako watched the interaction between the aged business owner and Zathria play out. Despite the blaster that was threateningly displayed, the man didn't seem interested in conflict. After a few moments Zathria had stated their intent and begun the workings of a mind trick on the man.
He let them into the dusty building, flicking a light on. There were various posters that decorated the wall detailing Lorrd and its various attractions. Dusty mementos and other products meant to be sold to tourists lined the shelves, but something about the room made Mako think that business hadn't been very good lately.
The man led them to a counter where he opened a small lockbox and pulled out a pair of key fobs. "Where are you going, this late at night?" The man asked suspiciously. He was more than willing to rent them speeders, especially with the mind trick at work, but that didn't suppress his natural, or perhaps unnatural paranoia.
"The Catacombs," Mako plucked the brochure back from Zathria and placed it on the table where the man looked at it blankly for a moment as if struggling to remember something, "Do you know where we could find the entrance?" He finished asking.
"Catacombs... catacombs..." The man stared at the brochure for a long moment, muttering to himself before his eyes widened slightly. "We haven't done a tour of the catacombs in... more than thirty years." He coughed and then rubbed his head as if seeming suddenly pained.
"Do you know... where we could find the entrance?" Mako asked again, a little more hesitantly as he pulled out some credits and traded them for the key fobs. There was something troubling about how the man's eyes seemed to glaze over, an expression of pain spreading across his face at the second asking.
"The catacombs... The... Ahh." The man's confusion and pain seemed to increase for a moment before he snapped rigid, face going blank as he exclaimed in pain. A moment passed before he shook his head and snapped out of whatever fit was affecting him. "You're speeders are in the back... Where you saying something?" He hooked a finger at the back door before glancing at them strangely as if he wasn't sure what was going on.
