Raid on the Sith Embassy

The Raid on the Sith Embassy was carried out during the Jedi Civil War, against the Sith Embassy located within Ahto City on the neutral world of Manaan, the only source of kolto.

Preamble
Having come to Manaan in search of that planet's Star Map during the quest to locate the mysterious Star Forge, the amnesiac Revan and his companions sought some way to access the floor of the global ocean where, thanks to a vision that was shared with fellow Jedi Bastila Shan, they knew it to be found. After seeking out the Republic Embassy in Ahto City, they met with the diplomat in charge of the Galactic Republic's mission there, Roland Wann. Wann, in exchange for his aid, asked that Revan attempt to enter the Sith Empire's Embassy in order to recover the data module of a submersible probe droid that had been lost and subsequently captured by Sith forces. In addition, Revan had also agreed to search out several missing Selkath youth, among them Shasa, the daughter of Shaelas.

The invasion
Roland Wann offered Revan a number of ways to perform the actual infiltration. Among them included interrogating a captured Sith operative, who had himself attempted to sneak into the Republic embassy, in order to get access to the facility. Another way was to decrypt a crate of blank Sith datacards that the Republic had intercepted; doing so would allow one of the cards to be used to open the gates of the Embassy. The last, potentially most dangerous, and coincidentally the easiest way was to use a keycard, captured from the Sith spy, to access a heavily-guarded docking bay that housed a transport that would take its riders to the base.

Once inside the base, things heated up quickly. Revan and his companions were confronted by a number of Sith troopers and assault droids, as well as a number of Dark Jedi. After clearing out most of their enemies and using his and his companions' skills to get past a number of obstacles, Revan eventually made his way to the training quarters, where he found Shasa and a number of other Selkath youth in a dormitory. The Selkath at first wanted to alert their masters, who were planning on indoctrinating them into serving the dark side and the Sith, but Shasa supposed that this must be a test of their abilities. Revan, having been given a pin from a dying Selkath youth in the medical room, showed the pin to Shasa as he attempted to convince them that the Sith were evil and wished to conquer Manaan for its kolto. With the truth revealed to them, the youths left the embassy.

Endgame and capture
Revan and his companions went on to confront the Sith Master in charge of the base; however, he was forced to slay two more Selkath apprentices as well as the Master in order to finish the mission and secure data about the Sith's plans to corrupt Manaan's youth. After the brief duel that followed, the data was secured and the trio of Republic warriors made their way back to the embassy entrance, encountering and killing the Commander of the embassy, along with the receptionist and a quartet of war droids as they attempted to escape.

This was not the end of their troubles, however, for shortly after exiting the embassy they were confronted by the Ahto City Civil Authority, who placed Revan and his companions under arrest for crimes against the peace as well as crimes against the Sith Empire. The prosecution decided to focus on Revan as the key defendant, however, assigning the incompetent [[Bwa'lass as his Arbiter. In his defense, Revan simply showed the Civil Authority Court the datapad he had secured from the embassy; in light of the evidence it contained he was released, the Sith Empire was banned from Manaan, and their facility in Ahto City was sealed.
