Thal-ion did as she wished while she was focusing on the problem at hand.  While he kept their ship away from the enemy warships; he also meditated in the Force.  Dar'ia had done this...or, at least done it at someone's command.  What resources did the Sith woman have at her disposal?  Had she sent a squadron of fighters through?  Or a battalion of troops?  Or had her apprentice or master gone through?  What mischief had she been working on?  It was clear the blockade of Naboo was the important event, but how was she or her agents to interfere?  Only the Force could guide him, and thus as Alethea was seeking answers in her own way - so was Thal-ion.  The Force flowed through him as he concentrated...letting this moment in history flow through his mind.  Here was someone - or several people - who did not belong.  Immediately, he sensed Alethea, because technically she was not suppose to be here anymore than he was.  Yet, this much was clear already, and he sent out his probing thoughts in the Force away from their ship to Naboo and blockading battleships.  There was the faintest of sensation coming from where the station had exploded and closed their only known way home, and lead to the planet even now the object of such unwanted attention by the Trade Federation.  Yet, even as he focused on this faint thread; Thal-ion could get no more information.<br/><br/>When Alethea returned - he knew she had nothing new to provide either, but soon took their ship in when the Trade Federation troop transports began their run.  He wasted no time in jamming their sensors as she swept their freighter in among the other descending vessels before breaking away to find their own landing spot outside of Theed.  While his companion gathered herself together, and powered down the ship; Thal-ion wondered about where the other two Jedi had ended up.  In the Force, he could feel them further away from Theed than they were, but knew the city would be their ultimate destination.<br/><br/>"To Theed, I believe.  If our enemies are here to disrupt the timeline; perhaps we can infiltrate the city and watch for anything unusual while helping the resistance the guards will no doubt have formed.  My immediate thought is we should rescue the Queen.  She will be taken into custody by the Viceroy soon.  What better time to have her killed if that is our foe's objective.  Yes, infiltrate the city, help the resistance here get setup quietly, and watch for a chance to save Queen Amidala.  Hopefully our two Jedi friends will be along about the same time," the young Sentinel stated in thought as he left the ship with his companion.  "I'd also hate to see anyone find our ship.  Wouldn't hurt to camouflage her as best we can."<br/><br/>He turned to look at the city just a few kilometers ahead of them.  Even now he could feel the approach of the Trade Federation army on Theed.  Part of him wanted to immediately jump in, and start wrecking havoc on the enemy column, but he knew better.  Even two Jedi could not take on an entire army alone.  Yet, to know the peaceful and beautiful city would soon fall without a fight was not something he enjoyed.  To focus on the work at hand; Thal-ion started working hard on hiding the ship further from prying eyes.  The last thing they needed was their ship vanishing on them.
