Mountaintop Rescue

It is a dark time in the galaxy. The JEDI ORDER has
been destroyed and knowledge of the FORCE has all
but lost. Only a handful of people sensitive to the
Force remains, scattered across the stars, ignorant
of their destiny.

Humble scholar Hethan Romund has preserved a
fragment of the heritage of the Jedi. Traveling the
galaxy, Romund stumbled across a number of
people still strong in the Force and offered them
what wisdomn she could. Now, Romund has been
captured by MALEFAX, a servant of the dark side of
the Force. Compelled by Malefax to lead him to a
lost temple rich in ancient knowledge, Romund has
sent a signal to several of the Force-sensitive allies
she has made over the course of her career.

Drawn together to rescue their mentor, these
Force-sensitives now climb the snow-clad slopes of
MOUNT TELLEC on the Outer Rim planet Spintir....
