Plot Summary
With the Mirror lying dead in front of them, there was little else for the PCs to do but to search his body. Though his armor and vibrosword were not salvageable, and they were not sure whether the holographic device he'd used to help disguise himself was operational or not, in the bag he was carrying they found assorted repair parts for droids, a few tracking devices identical to the one that had once been installed in HC-7, lightsaber hilts (which the padawans claimed), a bunch of broken pocket mirrors, and 300 credits. They gave the 300 credits to Ikal to smooth things over with him (Nawah Masin briefly considered promising him the Mirror's ship, but decided against it when she realized Korrda the Hutt had probably repo'd it already), then decided to take the Mirror's corpse and all his stuff back to Rogue Ronto.

Back at the ship, Rhen was resting and recovering when she had a dream that she knew wasn't a dream. Through the Force, she made brief contact with her fellow Nightsister Sekar Mirah, who told her she'd been captured and needed to be rescued before she fell to the dark side. She also sent Rhen images of two different people: one an enemy Rhen and Sekar had faced once before, and the other a red-headed human who Rhen realized had to be the same person Reevo Tetsu had seen removing documents from the secret Jedi temple on Kamparas. Rhen woke and immediately tried to leave her room to speak to the others about what she'd seen, only to find the door sealed shut.

Using the commlink she'd been given, Rhen contacted the other PCs and told them she was locked in her room. Realizing that the Mirror had likely been aboard Rogue Ronto while disguised as Nomi Amersu, the others told her to stay put in her room. However, as they approached the ship at the spaceport, Efnir Kis's Iktotchi precognition warned him of serious danger. The PCs sent Vesper Syl'tine to approach stealthily and take a closer look at things using his Force-enhanced sight. Vesper quickly discovered that the Mirror had set the ship's weapons to fire on anyone who approached it.

Switching tactics, Vic Dantor decided he would talk Rhen through shutting off the weapons from inside the ship. To bypass any traps on the door to Rhen's bunk, he had her use her ichor blade to cut through the bulkhead between their rooms (after a loose panel from Vic and Nomi's previous investigations fell on her head, and Vic blamed it on the Mirror). Vic was unable to repurpose the sensor he'd set up outside the Force users' rooms to scan the ship, so he told Rhen to go to the cockpit, dodging various traps along the way. In the cockpit, Rhen saw that 3D6 had been completely disassembled. Vic talked her through shutting down the weapons systems, allowing the rest of the PCs to safely enter the ship.

Things to Remember

 * The PCs missed eliminating at least one of the Mirror's traps from the ship (2 threat on Skulduggery)
 * Efnir did not know about any secret Jedi temples but might remember something later (2 advantage on failed Lore roll)
 * Eventually Vic will maybe tell Vesper what he learned about Zernvik, until then Z just has to stew about it OOC
 * The Mirror will now be blamed for anything that ever goes wrong on the ship, no matter how impossible
 * Master Quiet apparently looks like Bruno Madrigal from Encanto now whether anyone wants him to or not
