Lord gave a slight bow, the gesture a testament to his well-programmed etiquette. "Of course, Most Noble Master Galat. This mansion has stood for several centuries and has been a silent witness to many events. What would you like to know?"
Kessarion leaned forward, intrigued. "Let's start with Count Dooku. How was your experience serving under him?"
Lord paused for a moment, processing. "Count Dooku, or as he was formerly known, Jedi Master Dooku, was a charismatic and highly principled individual. While I served him, the mansion was often frequented by politicians, diplomats, and other figures of significance. Their discussions, often shrouded in confidentiality, revolved around the galaxy's politics, with Dooku always seeking ways to improve the Republic's bureaucracy."
"Count Dooku was not only a political scientist but also a scholar of ancient Jedi and Sith knowledge," Lord continued, his voice steady. "While many saw his eventual dissent from the Jedi Order as a betrayal, it was, in many ways, a culmination of his years of frustration with the system's inefficiencies and corruption. He believed in a more direct, authoritative approach to achieving peace, which put him at odds with the Jedi Council's philosophy."
Kessarion's eyes sharpened with interest. "And during this dissent, did he confide in you or leave behind any records?"
Lord's optical sensors seemed to focus more intently on Kessarion. "Indeed, Most Noble Master Galat. Over the years, the Count recorded several personal logs and reflections. He intended for them to be accessed only after his demise. They were encrypted with a code sequence that, I must admit, I have been unable to decipher."
"I believe they could shed light on the depth and nuances of his beliefs," Lord replied. "Perhaps even provide understanding into events that shaped the galaxy. Given your connection to Master Reus and the respect Count Dooku had for her, I believe you are well-suited to access and interpret these files."
>"While I appreciate the offer, Lord, I believe Master Reus would be the most appropriate individual to access those files.">"I've always been curious about Count Dooku's personal reflections. Given our galaxy's current state, understanding his thoughts could be invaluable. I'd like to access them.">"It feels intrusive to pry into the personal records of someone like Dooku without his direct consent. However, if it can offer any clarity or insight, I will access them. But with utmost respect to his memory.">"I'll accept the files, Lord, but only to seek out any personal requests or information that Dooku may have left behind. The politics of the galaxy and the affairs of the Jedi Order have taken their toll on me. I'm not keen on diving into more of that.">Other
