{{floatingtoc}}
There's a fair amount to see and do here in Taris's Upper City.  In order to find Bastilla, you'll need to get down to the planet's lower levels.  The only way to do that is to get past an elevator guarded by the Sith.  Since getting the requisite authorization papers is highly unlikely, you'll need a disguise if you want to get past the guard.


Heading south from your apartments (straight ahead) you'll find the Equipment Emporium, a shop operated by Kebla Yurt that sells weapons, armor, and [[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Utility items#Medpacs|medpacs]].  Stop buy and purchase some equipment if you need it.  Just before reaching the Emporium though, you will be given the chance to chat with Carth and get to know him a bit better. Continuing on, you'll come across the Upper City Cantina.
[[File:KotOR Screenshot Upper City South.jpg|thumb|460px|left|Upon entering from the [[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/South Apartments|South Apartments]], you notice a crashed Republic escape pod (presumably yours) to your right, being scanned and scavenged by two Salvage Droids. A Protocol Droid stands in the foreground.]]


<!-- Heading to the east end of the upper city you'll find a small medical clinic -->
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Salvage Droid:
|Dialog=[The salvage droids are busy scanning and scavenging the remains of this Republic escape pod.]}}
 
You start in the northwest corner of Upper City South:
 
[[File:KotOR Map Upper City South.png|center|frame|Upper City South map.]]
 
If this is your first time and you questioned [[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/South Apartments#Janitor|Kadir]], the janitor of the South Apartments, you may follow his directions and go south to the [[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Upper City South#Upper City Cantina|Upper City Cantina]], perhaps visiting the [[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Upper City South#Equipment Emporium|Equipment Emporium]] on the way there or back. Otherwise, you may head east and then north for the entrance to [[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Upper City South#Upper City North|Upper City North]], hugging the left of the entrance to avoid being drawn into an altercation between a bullied merchant and two bounty hunters on the other side.
 
If you haven't spoken to Carth since the opening dialog, you'll be prompted to do so shortly after arriving in the Upper City. However, you do not have to do so.
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Carth
|Name=Carth:
|Dialog=[Something seems to be bothering Carth. Maybe you should speak to him and see if you can get him to open up about it.]}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=1.
|Dialog=[[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Carth|[Speak to Carth.<nowiki>]</nowiki>]]}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=2.
|Dialog=[Don't speak to him.]}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Carth
|Name=Carth:
|Dialog=[You decide to ignore Carth and continue on with your quest for now, though it might be a good idea to speak to him later.]}}
 
The men and women on the streets of the Upper City may make a comment on Taris when spoken to, but they cannot be engaged in dialog. Unsurprisingly, patrolling Sith Troopers are even less helpful:
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Sith Trooper:
|Dialog=Out of our way, citizen - we're on official Sith business! Just stand aside if you know what's good for you!}}
 
==Protocol Droid==
Protocol Droids are more talkative and informative than the Salvage Droids, though:
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Protocol Droid:
|Dialog=Greetings and good day. On behalf of the new Sith rulers I am programmed to encourage you to enjoy your stay on Taris. I am a protocol droid programmed to provide information to everyone on Taris – citizens and visitors alike. Is there something I can do to serve you?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=1.
|Dialog=What can you tell me about the Sith?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Protocol Droid:
|Dialog=The Sith are the new authority here on Taris. They seek to preserve the customs of our world, or so I am told. More than this I cannot say.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=2.
|Dialog=Is there some way I can get a shuttle off this planet?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Protocol Droid:
|Dialog=I am afraid that is impossible. Taris is currently under a planet-wide quarantine. The Sith are allowing no one to arrive or leave, except on official Sith business.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=3.
|Dialog=Do you know anything about the gangs in the Lower City?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Protocol Droid:
|Dialog=The Taris Tourism Board has issued a strong warning to all visitors to avoid the Lower City. It is a violent and dangerous place you would do well to avoid.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=4.
|Dialog=How come there are hardly any aliens around?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Protocol Droid:
|Dialog=Alien species have restricted access to the Upper City. This is one of the most ancient traditions of Taris, and the Sith have promised to preserve such traditions. Of course, I have yet to see them arrest a single alien for travelling the Upper City without a permit.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=5.
|Dialog=Who do you work for?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Protocol Droid:
|Dialog=I am an employee of the Taris government, programmed to provide information and guidance to any who require it.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Protocol Droid:
|Dialog=May I be of any further service to you?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=6.
|Dialog=I don't need anything right now.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Protocol Droid:
|Dialog=Then if you will excuse me, I must continue my appointed rounds.}}
 
==Rapid Transit System==
You're notified of this 'quest' immediately upon arriving in the Upper City:
 
{{KotOR Journal
|Quest=Rapid Transit System
|Update=STAR WARS Knights of the Old Republic has a rapid transit system to allow you to move quickly through the game. You can access the rapid transit system through your MAP screen.
 
On the map screen you will see a button that says 'Return to Hideout'. In non-action areas you can use this button to instantly transport you back to the apartment complex where your base is located. In some action areas this button will be disabled.
 
While in the apartment complex the button on the Map screen will read 'Transit Back'. When pressed you will be transported back to the location where you last used the Return to Hideout function.
 
Remember: If you leave the area around your hideout, the 'Transit Back' button will switch back to 'Return to Hideout' and you will have to manually walk back to your previous location.
 
You should try using the Return to Hideout and Transit Back buttons now, just to see how they work.}}
 
Transiting back to [[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Taris#Hideout|Hideout]] at any time warps you (and any [[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Party|party]]) back outside its entrance, fully healed, and completes this quest. You receive no [[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Experience|experience]] for this, but it's instructive if this is your first time.
 
==Equipment Emporium==
Travel south towards the Upper City Cantina and you'll pass the Equipment Emporium on your left. Open the door in the west wall to reveal Kebla Yurt standing behind a desk in the middle of the Emporium, and the Shop Droid:
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Shop Droid:
|Dialog=[This droid is too busy performing its assigned duties to speak with you.]}}
 
Kebla Yurt herself is much more talkative.
 
===Kebla Yurt===
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=Hello there. I haven't seen you in my shop befoe... allow me to introduce myself. My name is Kebla Yurt. Welcome to the Equipment Emporium. You looking to buy some supplies? My shop's the largest one in all of Upper Taris. Best selection on the planet. Whatever you need, I've got. Well, mostly.}}
 
Carth interjects if he's present:
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Carth
|Name=Carth:
|Dialog=Mostly? What do you mean by that?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=The Sith confiscated all my heavy weapons. And they impounded all my ships and swoop bikes. But I've still got a real nice selection, if you're interested.}}

After exiting the inventory, the dialog will end.
 
====Questions====
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=Anything I can do to help a potential customer out. What do you want to know?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=1.
|Dialog=Do you know anything about those escape pods that crashed here on Taris?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=I heard a couple of pods crashed down in the Undercity. I bet the crash sites have already been stripped clean by the Sith though – unless the swoop gangs or Davik's men got there first.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=1.1.
|Dialog=Swoop gangs? What can you tell me about them?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=I don't have anything good to say about the swoop gangs: zooming around on their swoop bikes, terrorizing the Lower City like a bunch of animals! Things weren't so bad when the Hidden Beks were running the show, but ever since the rise of the Black Vulkar gang the Lower City has been nothing short of a war zone! The Sith haven't even bothered trying to maintain order down there, and I heard a rumor that Davik's own people are having problems with the Black Vulkars now.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=1.2.
|Dialog=What do you know about Davik?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=Oh, Davik's a legitimate businessman, if you get my drift: smuggling, slaving, extortion. Uh huh. They say he's a member of the Exchange – you know, the big intergalactic criminal organization.}}
 
Carth interjects if he's present:
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Carth
|Name=Carth:
|Dialog=Hmm. I've heard of the Exchange. Bad organization to cross. If anyone has blockade-breaking ships, however, it's them.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=I have to pay him a protection fee every month, but it's reasonable. And I get most of my inventory through Davik and his suppliers – I'm just smart enough not to ask where it came from, you understand?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=1.2.1.
|Dialog=Davik's nothing but a petty crime lord!}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=Careful where you say that. Davik's got spies and agents everywhere. Besides, he's as much a part of Taris as the skyscrapers or the swoop gangs.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=1.2.2.
|Dialog=Is Davik working with the Sith?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=Davik hates the Sith as much as anybody – the quarantine has put a real dent in his operations too. But he's keeping a low profile as long as the occupation lasts. Davik stays out of the way, and the Sith don't bother him. The swoop gangs could learn a thing or two from this tidy little arrangement, instead of always going after each other.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=2.
|Dialog=I was wondering how you feel about the Sith?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=Uh, heh. It's not smart to say bad things about the people in power, if you get my meaning. I just wish the Sith would ease up on the quarantine – they're killing my business! I can't say I like having them here in the Upper City, but it could be worse. And we're still a lot better off than the Lower City, what with those swoop gangs and all.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=3.
|Dialog=I need some general information on Taris.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=Oh, you're one of those off-worlders, aren't you? Come to Taris for a short business trip and end up stuck here because of the Sith quarantine, right? Oh, you can't be too happy, trapped on an unfamiliar world and all. But Taris isn't so bad, as long as you stay in the Upper City. Just try to avoid the Sith. And stay out of the Lower City. The swoop gangs are totally out of control. Even Davik's men are having trouble down there.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=4.
|Dialog=I'll be going now.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Kebla Yurt:
|Dialog=Good day to you then. Remember to come on back to my shop if you ever need any supplies.}}
 
==Upper City Cantina==
Continue south past the Equipment Emporium to find the door to the [[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Upper City Cantina|Upper City Cantina]], with a Sith Trooper standing to your right:
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Sith Trooper:
|Dialog=Don't bother me – I'm here on official Sith business!}}
 
This business doesn't involve preventing entry to the cantina, so open the door and go inside.
 
==Clinic==
Head east to the other end of Upper City South, and you can enter the clinic through an open doorway in the south wall. To the left of the entrance is Gurney, while directly ahead of you is a Medical Droid. Neither are particularly helpful:
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Gurney:
|Dialog=Can't you see I'm busy with my duties? Go talk to Zelka if you need something.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Medical Droid:
|Dialog=Beep, boop, beep.}}
 
There is a locked door labelled Lab Personnel Only in the west wall, and Zelka Forn is to your right, standing between a desk in the middle of the room and tanks lining the south wall.
 
===Zelka Forn===
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=I see from your appearance that you are an off-worlder. Still, you are welcome here. I'll not have it said that Zelka Forn refused to help somebody just because they weren't a citizen of Taris. Do you require healing or medical supplies? I can treat almost any injury or ailment right here at the medical facility, except the rakghoul disease, of course.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=1.
|Dialog=[[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Upper City South#Rakghoul Serum|Rakghoul disease? What's that?]]}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=2.
|Dialog=Medical facility? Is this some kind of hospital?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=This is a hospital of sorts, though my resources are quite limited since the Sith quarantined the planet. I provide basic medical services to all citizens of and visitors to Taris. I have extensive medical training, and even with the lack of resources I can treat most injuries or ailments right here at the center - except for the rakghoul disease, of course.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=3.
|Dialog=I want to ask you some questions.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=I am quite busy maintaining the facility, but I suppose I could spare a bit of time to answer some questions. What would you like to know?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=3.1.
|Dialog=[[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Upper City South#Rakghoul Serum|Tell me about the rakghoul disease.]]}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=3.2.
|Dialog=How do you feel about the Sith?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=I know enough to be scared of them. I've heard about the brutality of the Sith. I know what they do to the planets they conquer. So far all they've done is ask me some general questions, but I'm afraid they might one day decide to shut this facility down simply out of evil spite. I guess there's not much I can do about the Sith, except hope that the Republic finds a way to stop their conquest of the entire galaxy.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=3.3.
|Dialog=[[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Upper City South#Taris|I just want some general information about Taris.]]}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=4.
|Dialog=I could use some healing.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=It will just take me a moment while I examine your injuries, and then I'll administer the proper treatment.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=5.
|Dialog=[[Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Upper City South#Inventory|Let me take a look at what you've got for sale.]]}}
 
After the latter two, the dialog will end (although it can be resumed).
 
====Rakghoul Serum====
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=The terrible affliction has plagued Taris for many generations. It is spread by the rakghouls, horrible monsters that live in the Undercity below Taris' great skyscrapers. Prolonged exposure to the Undercity breeds the disease and those infected will eventually mutate into rakghouls themselves, becoming mindless beasts that feed on the flesh of others.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=1.
|Dialog=Is there no cure?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=There is no antidote for the disease, though I heard the Republic scientists at the military base here on Taris were close to perfecting a cure. Then the Sith arrived. They overran the military base and now they refuse to allow anyone access to the laboratories inside. The Sith are keeping the serum for the patrols they send into the Undercity. If I could just get my hands on a sample of that serum the rakghoul disease could be wiped from the face of Taris forever. But I don't see how that's going to happen.}}
 
...
 
{{KotOR Journal
|Quest=Rakghoul Serum
|Update=Zelka at the Upper City medical center is eager to acquire a sample of the rakghoul serum used by the Sith Undercity patrols.}}
 
...
 
{{KotOR Journal
|Quest=Rakghoul Serum
|Update=Zelka at the Upper City medical center is eager to acquire a sample of the rakghoul serum used by the Sith Undercity patrols. However, Gurney, Zelka's assistant, mentioned that it might be more profitable if you deliver the serum to Zax in the bounty office in the Lower City cantina.}}
 
====Taris====
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=I don't know much, but I'll tell you what I can. Do you want to know about Upper Taris? Or are you more interested in Lower Taris and the Undercity?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=1.
|Dialog=Tell me about Upper Taris.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=The people here in the Upper City generally like to think they're better than the rest of Taris, but we're no better than anyone else. The people here can be selfish, greedy, arrogant and even prejudiced. That's why aliens need special permission to leave the Lower City. Maybe if more people in the Upper City weren't so self-centered things wouldn't be so bad in the Lower City and the Undercity.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=2.
|Dialog=Tell me about the Lower City.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=The Lower City has been overrun by swoop gangs and thugs. If you're going to travel down there you better go armed. If you don't get attacked by one of the swoop gangs, you'll probably end up beaten and robbed by one of Davik's thugs! Soon it will be as bad as the Undercity.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=2.1.
|Dialog=What do you know about Davik?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=Davik is the resident crime lord of Taris. He deals in stolen goods, he trades in slaves and contraband, and it would take a month to list all the people he's made "disappear". His slimy grasp even reaches here into Upper Taris. Most of the shops pay him protection money so he'll leave them alone. Yeah, the man's nothing but a thug! I guess I'm lucky. Since my medical facility doesn't make any profits Davik doesn't bother me. But if you ask me he's no better than the Sith!}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=3.
|Dialog=Tell me about the Undercity.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=The Undercity is a wasteland crawling with fleash-eating mutants called rakghouls. I feel sorry for the Outcasts that are forced to live there.}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=3.1.
|Dialog=Outcasts?}}
 
{{KotOR Dialog
|Icon=Dialog
|Name=Zelka Forn:
|Dialog=Justice here on Taris is swift and harsh. There are only two punishments – execution, or banishment to the Undercity. Anyone banished can never return on pain of death. Even their descendants are forced to live in the depths beneath our great cities. Whenever I can I send supplies to the Undercity to help ease the misery of their lives, although there is nothing I can do to help those infected with the rakghoul disease.}}
