The Dungeons of the High Castle

So three of the decoys already left? According to their flight plans, they appear headed towards Fondor. [member="Honoko"] was only partially able to rouse the remaining Graug in the rental yard, while Cathul realized that it was better to use non-Force-based means to fight Sith. Sure, after a few shots fired a little off the Graug, leaving dents on the floor, she managed to hit the Graug in such a way that they are falling asleep for the entire duration of the flight. And, unfortunately for her, the ship has already departed, with two Graug to handcuff. While the Sith criminal may have taken the flight hostage, and the ship jumping to hyperspace straight to Fondor, she cleared only one hurdle to recapturing the criminal. But she realizes that using a slugthrower to fight a Sith at point-blank range might be a little risky. So she went up the turbolift, only to find that the pilots of the Star Tours-operated barge bound to Fondor have been mind-tricked. Probably to keep quiet about the presence of a fugitive onboard: usually pilots have to report to nearby authorities whether there are stowaways or other criminals, she thought. She faced the criminal: she could feel that the Nautolan was able to use Force-cloak, but had to decloak just now.

"Ah... the Alliancist navy has come to recapture the prisoner?"

"You're under arrest for prison escape: if you do not have legal counsel, the courts will provide you for some. You have the right to remain silent, anything you might say may be held against you"

"What was I originally imprisoned for?"

"Spree killing on Tython, in relation to the dark side nexus built there"

The Nautolan prisoner then unleashes Force-lightning in an attempt to stun Cathul; again, the Sith had to be brought in alive, as Cathul is already in hyperspace, en route to Fondor, due to this attempt to intercept the prisoner that went awry. So she's potentially in for about four to five hours of flight, unless she can somehow divert the flight later.

Space Elf.. its a thing apparently.
at the yard Honoko was having a blast. still the graug were slow so this was easy.
her sabe was made to be cast to use.
one swung with a hammer a move she easily sidestepped brinking her cleaver down on his head,
using electric judgement in another enough to pause it so she could close the gap between them.
soon the other 8 were close in.
" ok lets do this." oh yeah the force force frost.
ste tapped in to the force pisturing the heat death like last time then placeg her hand to the ground freezind the still damo ground fron rhe recent drizzle. the subzero temperature began to freeze the water molicules in the grauger.
soon all 8 fell frozen to death.

While [member="Honoko"] dealt with the stragglers left behind on Coruscant, exhausting nearly all of the Sephi's Force-energy to freeze them, Cathul took a Force-lightning hit from the Nautolan Sith now that it's clear that the green-skinned criminal is resisting recapture, frying all of her electronic systems inside the beskar'gam. Then the Nautolan Sith would simply draw her double-bladed spinning red lightsaber, and ignite it, believing that the Force-lightning hit was sufficient to stun Cathul for a few seconds, long enough perhaps to move in for the kill. Cathul knew that spinning lightsabers have advantages but the advantages of the spinning lightsaber are negated when the vertical clearance is insufficient, as is the case here. As it was, she would cause the hilt's molecular vibrational frequencies (that is, to heat up) to the point where the Nautolan could no longer safely wield it, while the opponent's blade couldn't quite reach her. Also, the Sith was soon juggling with the red-hot, smoking hilt and had to think of some other Force-power to keep Cathul at bay, until they make it to Fondor, that is. But Cathul's computational power was more hysteresis-prone than usual.

"I always pictured Jedi as lightsaber jockeys: I guess I was wrong... Admiral" the Nautolan Sith taunted with some sarcasm in her voice.

"I never was much of a lightsaber jockey: I sought to use the Force to help people in other ways"

"Yet you ceased practicing therapy after a patient thrashed your office"

"And that particular patient cut my legs for retribution for malpractice: while, of course, I was willing to accept that no single therapist could treat all patients..." Cathul countered, with more pain in her voice than in her last line.

Space Elf.. its a thing apparently.
with the massine smmount of straighn of freezing 8 graug at once was tremendous,
" yada yada ice pun...." Honoko said as she fell to her knees exhausted. then passed out as a light drizle fell on her naked back.

[member="Cathul Thuku"]
 
"Therapists are weak"

The main implication of Cathul's computational power having more hysteresis was that it took longer for her mental cache to be purged, so it took a while to realize that she was the victim of Memory Walk, only when the pain became noticeable and that the memories of her worst moments as a therapist, as well as what caused her to fail as a therapist, the more challenging patients she had, began to loop in her mind. So she took what computational power was left, and decided to actually mount some mental defense until she no longer lived the unpleasant memories of her days as a therapist. With that said, she still got hit by another Force-lightning bolt when the Nautolan Sith made the realization that Cathul was able to defend against Memory Walk in the end. Then there seems to be less mental hysteresis, but she still didn't have enough computational power left to use Electric Judgment, so she had to resort to channeling as much Force-power as she have in order to freeze the neurotransmitters inside the Sith's cerebellum, causing the Nautolan Sith knight to enter a state of torpor, under the effects of Force-stasis. While [member="Honoko"] is now fast asleep on Coruscant, her computational power returns, and she uses the special handcuffs designed to restrain Sith. Once that is done, she has to use a mind trick to reverse the effects of the last one, cast by the Sith criminal:

"Open a channel to the naval police"

"I will open a channel to the naval police"

"Divert this ship to the nearest planet with a naval police station"

"I will divert this ship to the nearest planet with a naval police station"

With that said, the AT-AT barge has dropped out of hyperspace over Dulvoyinn, with a handcuffed criminal in its hands. Darth Taladu, the recaptured criminal, was to be escorted back to a prison transport upon landing on Dulvoyinn, and also the remaining Graug that flew out in an attempt to help her out in her escape. And also one of the technical stops demanded of the route was to be underway when it occurred.
