Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Sandral Grounds

You enter from a Path North from the Grove. There's no need to enter to complete the Jedi trials, but once you've spoken to Elise in the enclave's courtyard, her Missing Companion can be found by the northeast path, and there's a Cave Entrance at the east end of the grounds, where lightsaber crystals can be found.

Aside from kath hounds and horn kath hounds, in the middle of the grounds there are Mandalorian Raiders to the south on the east side, and an albino kath hound to the west, east of the Sandral Estate in the southwest corner of the grounds.

Map of the Sandral grounds

Path North

There are two paths north, one at the west end of the Sandral grounds and the other at the east end, which lead to the respective ends of the Grove. To the south of the west path north is the Sandral Estate.

Opposite the east path north are two horn kath hounds and a kath hound on the west side of some stones:

You can exit this area to the northwest to travel towards the Sandral estate, or investigate the cave entrance to the east.

Missing Companion

After speaking to Elise back in the courtyard of the Jedi enclave, you find her droid C8-42 being attacked by two kath hounds by a standing stone against the north wall between the path north and the cave entrance on the east side of the Sandral grounds. They can't kill it, but you can't speak to it until you've killed them:

Speak to C8-42:

C8-42: Thank you for saving me, master Jedi. I am C8-42, a personal assistance droid.

Dialog

3. That was quite a beating you took. C8-42: That was not that bad... compared to what I had to endure back at my owner's. 1. They abused you? 2. Owner's? 3. You left your owner's? C8-42: That would be one way of putting it. C8-42: Yes, I am owned by Elise Montagne, a wealthy widow who lives north of here. Otherwise: 1. Personal assistance droid? 4. I am not a Jedi Master yet. C8-42: Ah, yes, I apologize, for my incorrect terminology. C8-42: As I said, I am C8-42, a personal assistance droid. Although in recent months the assistance I render seems to have taken on a disproportionate significance. 2. Why were kath hounds attacking you? 5. No problem. 2. Huh? 3. Okaay... C8-42: Who knows. They are beasts, and have been very aggressive of late. C8-42: I am sorry if I seem a bit abrupt, but I must be moving along. I am rather in a hurry. 1. Where are you going to? C8-42: Not so much as where I am going to, but where I am going away from... Otherwise: 1. Are you Elise's droid? 2. Are you running from something? C8-42: From my master, Elise. Wait... C8-42: Did she send you to find me? Please do not tell her you saw me! 1. You're running from her? 2. Weren't you kidnapped? C8-42: Yes... But I have my reasons! C8-42: No... I ran away of my own free will. But I have my reasons! In every case: C8-42: I'm afraid my owner became a bit too attached to me. Obsessed even. She... she tried to treat me as her dead husband. It was not healthy for her. 1. Is she crazy? 2. Er... ALL the time? 3. But she wants you back. C8-42: You don't want to know... 1. Um... probably not... C8-42: She is obsessed. She rarely sees other people, and appears to be fixated on me as her husband. She was becoming more and more insular... I thought it best that I leave. She may meet other real people this way. In fact, that was the reason I came here and sought out those kath hounds. 1. You sought them out? 2. What, are you suicidal or something? 3. You want to get away that badly?

C8-42: I think it would be best if I were no longer a factor. She would meet new people. Living people. Please... will you destroy me?

You can convince C8-42 to return to his mistress Elise:

Dialog

2. No. You should go back to her. C8-42: But... but why? 1. She is lonely and needs your support. 2. You're her property, and must obey her. 3. Because if you don't, I'll carry you back myself. C8-42: You... you're right... How could I be so selfish? I must not think only of myself, but of how it affects her. She must be frantic. And if she lost me she'd be devastated. I must return then. It is my duty. C8-42: Yes... Yes I am. It seems I must resign myself to my fate. To be a droid. A second-class being with no rights at all. C8-42: You seem determined. And I have very little choice. C8-42: So be it then. I shall return to her.

Missing Companion The droid that fled from Elise, C8-42, ran away because he feared his mistress was spending too much time focused on him, and not enough on other living beings. He wished you to destroy him to force her to live a real life. You could not and convinced him to return to her.

Received: 300 Convinced C8-42 to return to his mistress

Alternatively you can oblige and destroy him without resistance, although he'll fight if you say you'll tell Elise he's still out here to move closer to the dark side of the Force:

1. Fine. I'll destroy you and tell her why you did it.	3. I'll destroy you and tell her you're still out there.
C8-42: Thank you, kind sir! You have my eternal gratitude.	C8-42: Wh... what?	Points Gained: -6
	Juhani: Do not do this...
	C8-42: No! You'd make her suffer like that?! You monster!

Technically this Mandalorian to the east is the only one here you need to kill to make their leader Sherruk appear, and if he's the first Mandalorian you kill:

Its high natural Force Resist means a level < 12 Jedi has no chance of breaching it, and even a level 20 Jedi's Force powers will only breach it 45% of the time. Once it's taken damage it regenerates 1 Vitality every 6 seconds.

To the northwest is a bridge across the river marking the east boundary of the Sandral estate, with a waterfall down to the south.

The estate has doors in its north and east walls, both of which are locked and impossible to open at this time.

[Non-family members are not permitted entrance.]

You can speak briefly to the Sandral droid standing to the left of the north door.

Sandral Droid: This is private property! By what authority are you trespassing on this estate?
1. I'm sorry, I'll be going now.	2. My weapons are my authority!
Sandral Droid: My orders are clear. Please leave immediately. Only those on official family business are permitted on the family's land.	Sandral Droid: I am not programmed for battle, but I will not open the gates except for those on official family business. Even if you destroy me, you will not be able to get in. And tomorrow, another droid will be programmed to take over my duties.
