We approached the factory from a nearby cliff-side. The side entrances appeared to be blocked by rubble. Apprentices Teran Mal and Eddi Hozan began clearing the rubble with their lightsabers and force telekinesis. I too attempted to assist with telekinesis. Once we got through the rubble we could see roughly half a dozen armed men guarding the main entrance as well as support staff running back and forth from deeper inside the factory. Teran called down droid reinforcements to assault the front entrance as a distraction and immediately jumped into action as soon as they arrived. We split up, Teran and I moving towards the entrance while Eddi attempted to take out the support staff but was soon fired upon by more guards coming from deeper within the facility. Teran fought the remaining guards up front while our droids entered the factory. Eddi and I were forced to take cover behind crates as there were now over a dozen men, plus droids and support staff firing on our position from above, on a catwalk, and in the storage area ahead of us. Teran and his droids pushed forward and I ran behind them, taking cover between some workstations and the facility wall. Eddi began using telekinesis to pull enemies towards him into melee range. Once Teran was close enough he jumped up onto the catwalk to deal with the guards firing on us from above. I leapfrogged from cover to cover until I had nowhere else to go and began searching through some of the nearby containers and crates. Luckily I managed to find some sort of IED and threw it behind the enemies still firing at us. It was a large shrapnel grenade and when it went off it killed all the remaining enemies and support staff, with surprisingly minimal damage to the surrounding facility, equipment, and cargo. I recommend we return and collect more of these IEDs for reverse engineering. While Teran was working to get the turbolift running, I collected one of the smaller corpses, henceforth referred to as shield. We proceeded up the turbolift and immediately came under fire from the Factory Manager and two of his bodyguard droids. Teran and Eddi used telekinesis to disarm one of the droids and the factory manager, respectively. I held my shield close and charged at the remaining droid, augmenting myself and tackling it to the ground. It was at this time I was struck by two repeater rifle rounds, one to the right shoulder and the other to the right leg. After the fighting was over we secured the factory, took the manager as our prisoner, and returned to the Estate to debrief with Sergeant Thymius.
