The Republic of the Force is asking Elaya, their former security dealer, for help. But CSP has a vested interest in finding out who did the deed, and how. Force Ghosts don’t just appear out of nowhere. They come from someone or something. So it is up to us as Scholaeans to investigate!

You will be given one of two prompts to complete. Choose only one!

Prompt 1: CSP has a few contacts in The Republic of the Force. Go seek them out and find out what you can from them! What do they know? What information can they get you? And if they need help, what can you give them? This way is more diplomatic, but it may or may not yield the best results.

Prompt 2: You’ve decided to find out for yourself what is going on. You decide to go to the scene of the crime itself. Go to the tower and find out what you can about the assassination! What do you find? What does it lead to? How did you get up the tower in the first place with all the added security? This way is more direct, but getting caught will yield no results, and a possibly implicate us in the assassination.

Fictions that follow their prompt (using both is not an option) will get a higher score. Fictions are graded according to the Voice Rubric. Minimum word count of 500 words.
