Akea guided the larger falling boulders toward the skywalk, particularly targeting a section of the bridge just north of the midsection that was warped from the force scream. The bridge was visibly weakened from the force scream, or else the durasteel could have easily handled thousands of pounds of falling rock. The steel fractured at the point of impact, about 10 feet in front of Darth Krayt as he moved toward Akea. Krayt disappeared from view as the bridge fell, the steel at the far end of the bridge bending under the weight of the center pavillion.

• Darth Krayt Dexterity + Athletics to maintain balance - failed

Krayt lost his footing on the smooth durasteel surface as the bridge bent downward. He slid off the edge and began free-falling. However, Akea did not have even the luxury of catching his breath. He looked skyward toward the three military transports with their laser turrets trained on his position. He sensed they were about to fire, and that remaining on the bridge was probably ill-advised. His Jedi instincts gave time to react.

((The transports would have decided to join battle on Tick 25 after Krayt was taken out, but due to their poor join battle roll I added 6 ticks, taking it to 31. Akea acts on 30, and has move actions from 25-30 he could use as well.))

Allanar got to the edge of the roof and surveyed the situation, Krayt was nowhere to be seen, the bridge was severed with the longer section bent at a 45 degree angle downward under its own weight. The transports had their cannons trained on Akea.
