The Mayor and I had a heart to heart in her office. Reporting on details:
-The Companions, the fake people, aren't controlled by her, but by the Sun. It's not just an advanced monitoring system - it's alive, and it's keeping everyone here hostage. Making everyone pretend to be the town we see. It's also behind replacing people with the Companions.
(Side Speculation: Could this be connected to the list of people? She might have been noting people that are drawing attention and getting on the Sun's bad side?)
-All of the Companions shutdown during my talk with her and they don't seem to be getting up again. She said it's because we've made the Sun mad. There's no way to communicate with the Sun. Either they make it happy or angry and they've been trying to stick with the former to stay alive.
(Side Note: The Sun could hear us the entire time and she spoke quieter and quieter through our talk. We need to be careful what we say aloud moving forward. It's listening to all of us.)
-She has no idea about the orb or where it might be. Really hoping it isn't the sun itself but it could be something connected to it.
-She wants the town to be free but she's afraid. All the people here are. But I don't think they want to keep taking it anymore and that's why they're acting out. We might be able to get them to cooperate with us if we break the pretenses about just being a bunch of new move ins.
Whatever is going down, we need to bring an end to it fast. We can't leave these people to suffer. This is just a mission for us, but it's their lives on the line.

But yes, it does.

It only appears alive but so did the people here. Creepy.
But if your theory is right, that means it can be hacked.

Slice into the Sun? That would be a sight to see. Shame we don't have any means to do that remotely. That I know of anyway.
no subject
Well. Do we know if the Companions were somehow attached to it? Reverse engineer that?
no subject
Beedee though? Is that a droid?
no subject
Yeah, BD-1. We've been through a lot together.
no subject
Are you also a Jedi by any chance?

I am one. Well, was one.
[ Stupid Mayor and her stupid town making him... invested. He's been trying to run from who he is for so long and now he feels like he has to step up. ]
no subject
Prove it. ( not that he expects people to lie about being jedi. no one wants that mark on their back. but... well... trust issues. )
no subject
[ Uh, he's never really been asked to prove it before. Much less over a text conversation where he can't just do the Force thing. ]
How do I do that??
