h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

*Bows to assembly*

Honoured sneators. My name is Ma'rol Mannan, a knight of the jedi order. Along with me are my padawan Anoon Birkil and another jedi, Co'bal Th'chi.

First of all my i offer my sincerist of appologise for interupting the senate. I was unaware of it being a secret feed that i was seeing. The jedi stay away from acts of secrecy and deception, it is not our way.

CORELLIA: Then why is your base sheilded from our scanners! What are you hiding Jedi!

*Bows also*

It's an honour to meet the esteemed council members

There is a period known to jedi as the trials. This marks the transition between the rank of jedi and the rank of jedi knight. During one of the trials, a member of our order went through what i can only describe as a vision.
In this vision he saw our base being destroyed from orbit by space craft. Since that time we have felt it necessacry to take precautions. However, i will talk to the jedi council if you would like to take a tour and inspect our base for yourselves.
The senate is our friend, we have nothing to hide.

CORELLIA: You hide due to the suspicions of one of your young acolytes! I find that hard to believe! This deception is Gr'Jar's doing! You plan to subvert the New Republic!

~~~Co'bal back me up, invite them to the base again~~~

He is no longer an acolyte, he is full knight of our order. And any threat to our order, whether it has been in a vision or through some peice of information.

CORELLIA: According to the last delegation, the only threats you Jedi face are Rogue Jedi! Improperly trained Jedi of your order!

Improper training is the wrong term senator, and so is rogue.
A jedi chooses his own path. A padawan of strong will and strength of mind will harness his emotions. But many emotions prove to strong and lead to a darker road...
We mourn the lose of each young jedi to such emotions, and our constant struggle is to show these jedi the light again.

*Kellin sits and smiles*

Now down to buisness
All jedi obey the laws of the senate, but may i be so bold as to ask what charges are against master gr'jar?

KASHYYK: Woargh! (Treason)

I'm sorry senators, i am not making myself clear and appologise.
What has master gr'jar done wrong exactly. I would like all the details possible so that i can be of use to both the senate and to master gr'jar.

NABOO:

Yoo were at the hearing, jedi, yoo heard thee reecording from thee Charncellor's office...

*pouts lips to try and pull a jedi in the way all Nubians seem to do...*

Senators, a master and a knight came to you and told you that there were sith in the galaxy, is that true and is that treason?

KELLIN: They were trying to disrupt our peace with the Remnant!

As it has been heard, there are no sith, only rogue jedi!!

*Sighs*

Chancellor kellin, there is no reason for us to disrupt any peace, we are a peaceful order and wish for only harmony in the galaxy.
Suppose senators, just suppose, there are sith in the galaxy. Who from the order of jedi would our order send? And who would we contact with this information?

*looks around at the senators*

Our order sent master gr'jar and jedi knight Annat. They were sent to the highest authority in the galaxy

*looks straight at kellin*

You chancellor Kellin. Jedi do not talk of sith lightly, for they are a reminder to all what happens when the way is lost.

KELLIN: WHEN YOU COMMIT TREASON YOU DON'T GO TO THE JANITOR IN THE BASEMENT, JEDI!

YOU, ALSO, HAVE BEEN BRAINWASHED BY YOUR SO-CALLED LEADER!

*members at table laugh*

Chancellor Kellin, my master came to you with the direst of warnings. Have you not even considered the fact that he maybe be right. If a matter such as this is ignored completely and denouced as treason, then there are dark times ahead.
Senators, the sith are a threat to the galaxy. You may denounce a man for saying that they exist, but that does not get rid of them chancellor, it merely prevents the man from tackling the problem.

*Looks at each senator, apart from kellin*

I want you all to think back to what you know of the dark days. When the empire ruled with a iron hand and planets were destroyed at a whim.
You have no reason to beleive me senators. And i understand your mistrust of me, and every other jedi. But since the beginning the jedi have stood at the side of the senate, aidding and protecting the senate in its hours of need, to the point where the order was nearly completely wiped out. All that would stand for nothing if you simply ignore my our warnings.
As would like to know how the rest of you feel about this matter.
