Revan treaded carefully into the tunnel. Aware of the situation that could unfold if she were to be late. A fight to the death could happen if she were to be stuck behind the ice wall.

She pushed all her negative thoughts aside and focused on recentering herself in the force. Just as she regained her footing, she heard a faint humming noise calling to her.

She instinctively followed it through claustrophobia inducing tunnels and gaps until she rechead and opening with her crystal showing in it. On instinct, she ran towards it only to hit a clear ice wall and fall down.

"Ahh sith spawn!" She cursed, clutching her nose in pain. Looking back at it, she saw nothing but upon closer inspection, she saw a massive clear sheet of ice. Looking closer she saw that her crystal was reflected upon it.

Cringing to herself, she turned around and spotted the blue crystal. As soon as her hand touched the crystal, she saw a blue figure appear before her. It was of a very old woman. "Who are you!?" Revan recoiled. "Don't be afraid." The woman said. "Oh yeah how can i be when a blue figure jumpscares me dozens of meters under ice!" Revan yelled sarcastically.

The woman just shook her head before saying "I am your ancestor, Satele shan.". "Doesn't ring a bell." Revan said. "From nearly 3 and a half millennia ago." Satele explained. "What?!" Revan exclaimed in shock. "Then how are you..." Revan wanted to ask but was at a loss for words.

"After death, people who can use the force to transcend death itself, living on as a force ghost." Satele explained. "Then why come now?" Revan questioned. "I am afraid your brother is attempting to bring a malevolent entity back to life, disrupting the force's balance." She said. "He isn't a necromancer." She said defensively. "Oh he doesn't need to be. I was only able to speak to you because of the strong force connection here." She explained.

"Whenever you need my help, meditate and call out; i will answer. Until next time Revan." Satele said before vanishing. "Wait…" Revan said but Satele had already disappeared. "Kriffing ghosts and spirits." She said, rolling her eyes before snatching her crystal and rushing back out. Hoping to get to Ahsoka before Sigil and whatever entity Satele spoke of did first.

Sigil walked through ever more winding tunnels and passages with obstacles which he had to overcome until he rechead a clearing, it was a lake of still liquid water, under it, he saw a shining light which called to him; no doubt the crystal that guided him here. "Really?" He thought out loud. "Screw this." He said before plunging into the freezing water. He quickly swam down in an attempt to catch the crystal. Reaching close enough, he snatched the emerald green crystal and swam back to the top.

Taking in mouthfuls of air, he continued to swim until reaching his diving point. "I got it." He said while shivering from the cold that started to hit him. It suddenly got colder, as if another presence was nearby. It emitted the same cold as the holocron, then it clicked the strong force connection of Ilum allowed Nox to talk to him from beyond the grave.

"Free me from chaos." The same seductive voice from months earlier whispered to him. "Let my soul be free, i am but a prisoner. I beg you." The voice called out. "You think i am stupid?" He said. "If you won't, maybe your sister will. Hmm?" The said with a chuckle. "Do not dare." He threatened. "Or what?" The voice said. "You will kill me?" The voice mocked. "I will give you an offer you won't resist." The voice continued. "Oh what could that be?" He shot back. "Observe." She said, as his vision went black and he fell down.
