Vaerin shook his head, focusing the Force as he delved into the captive pirate's mind, looking at the man's memories and erasing them from existence as he did so. He left the knowledge of basic things, such as eating, breathing, sleeping, how to dress, and rudimentary ability to use technology, but everything else faded from the man's mind until nothing else was left. Then he focused in a different way, creating new memories and a new name for them. Once that was done, after a near-exhaustive effort, he let the pirate drop from the wall before backhanding him, hard enough to fling him to the ground, unconcious. He centered himself, his mind and thoughts as he brought order back to his own self. Then he looked at the Jedi and Sith. "I wholly intended to prevent their continuing... existence, young Jedi. Trying to convince me of the need for vengeance is, ultimately, redundant." He waved a hand dismissively as he expanded his senses outwards, as he had before. He followed, mentally, the route he'd found buried inside the pirate's former memories. He expunged any lingering trace of the pirate's thoughts and emotions from those recollections, the Force guiding his senses to the bridge and stopping. Then those senses withdrew, suspicions confirmed.
He staggered a bit, then, a small headache forming. "There's an accessway that leads to the deck above, then a main corridor... It's the way to the bridge, but... Jedi, I hope you're willing to see what happens when people fight for a cause without a plan. Like those the Sith influenced, for example." He hoped his meaning got across, but didn't repeat himself as he moved past the Jedi and Sith, turning the corner the pirates had come around. The accessway wasn't hard to find, given it had emergency markings on the bulkhead. It was unsecured, a ladder leading up to the next level.
