A found holovid

A security team entering Rai’s apartment find it almost barren, three couches, a fountain, and a holodisc sits on the couch in plain view. When turned on it appears to be Rai, a sad but tired smile as she looks to the camera

To whomever watches this. I, am Iradtoki, formerly known as Rai. I have made many mistakes in my life. Though this is not one of them. I know there will be a lot of confusion with my passing but I want to add some things here.

Mart: I don’t blame you, this is no failure of yours. Please do not accept the blame for this. Learn from it. Use my sacrifice to put a stop to these bastards and bring peace back to the Galaxy, then find peace with your son and uncle. You all deserve it. I love you.

Sandra: Be at peace, your a good friend. I know how much you suffer internally, and try to remain strong for everyone else. You are an inspiration to others, something people cling to in the darkness. Take care and be well.

Callista: I don’t know how much of my plan will work. 3 bombs instead of one…one I can slam into him, one in the hilt, and one for him to step on. Hopefully its enough, but if its not, I suppose you will be seeing this. You are my sister in everything, helped me find who I truly was and what I really wanted to be. I am sorry to leave you sister. Though I will always be with you.

Markus: I am sorry I had to leave you. I really am, that part hurts me more then most things. Your a brother to me and I am truly sorry it has turned this way. Please look after Lenny and Carmine. Let them know what’s happened. Please don’t lose yourself in this grief. I am at peace.

Qyilisc: Qy dear, don’t blame yourself. Our plan is solid and if I fail, its not because of what we did. Valerius is stronger then anything I have faced. Though I will work to protect you. I promise. If nothing else I will make him understand that this is my fault entirely, not yours. Please be at peace. Let go of your doubts, your fears, know that I have every faith in you.

Tara: I am sorry you will likely learn this second hand, if your getting this, I died to Lord Valerius when I warned the Republic he was actually on Mon Cala. His response was to seek my death. If your getting this message, he succeeded. I am sorry and I wish you well on the path to become a Jedi.

Corbin: You have the ability to be a great Jedi. Please, consider how you sound to others. I know you never trusted or liked me, but you remind me so much of myself. You make the mistakes I did. Please, let go of the ego and pride. Listen rather then talk. Allow empathy to be part of how you address things. When you do this, you will be better then any Master currently on the Council that I have met.

Carmine and Lenny: I am sorry I couldn’t come home loves, please be good for Carmine, and take care of one another. I love you both so much. You have made me so proud of you. Carmine, I have wired everything in my accounts to yours. There should be enough there to raise Lenny in comfort and probably you wont have to work any further if you don’t wish to. I love you both, and I always will be with you.

To those I have not addressed. Thank you for your support, your friendships and your time. These are things no one can replace and I am glad to have known you all. The sith should never be underestimated. I can only hope my sacrifice teaches something. That it might save someone.

May the force be with you all…
