"Actually, we're heading for the burial chamber, Mara," Matt explains. He then goes on to mention that the Mandalore at the time, Canderous Ordo, who had journeyed with an amnesiac Revan during the Star Forge Crisis, had been surprised to find out that the Tomb of Freedon Nadd was so close to his base of operations.

"Well, what do you hope to find there, Master?" asks Mara.

"Not a clue, but somehow I know that we'll find the answers we seek in the burial chamber," Matt responds.

"I hope you're right, master." says Mara.

That said, they work their way into the burial chamber after waiting ten minutes for Commander Barquan to link up with them. "Good to have you with us again, Barquan," Matt says, clapping Barquan on the shoulder when Barquan links up with them.
"Good to be here, sir," Barquan replies.

"So, find anything yet, Sir?" says Barquan.

Matt tosses Barquan a nearly three thousand year old disruptor rifle that he'd picked up in one of the earlier side chambers. "Have a look at this, Barquan," Matt says with a quirky grin, noting the drool coming from underneath Barquan's helmet. "And quit drooling."

"Sorry, sir." says Barquan. "I have a thing for antiquated weapons."

"When we're done here, there should still be caches of weapons, armor, and other equipment buried by the Mandalorians during the Mandalorian Wars around this region of Dxun, and Sakura's journal mentions at least two sites, one that she emptied for Canderous Ordo, and another that she and the team she had with her at the time looted," Matt says. "On another subject, how good are you with melee weapons?"

"Not very good sir." admits Barquan.

Matt frowns at Barquan's statement. "We're going to have to work on that when we get the chance," he says.

"Yes, General." says Barquan.

"Okay, we've dawdled out here long enough," Matt says. "Let's go take a closer look at the burial chamber."
Upon entering the chamber, Matt and company are greeted by the sight of Count Dooku losing his cool about the fact that the Tomb was empty.
It's an opportunity for a stinging comment that Matt just can't resist. "You do realize that the Exile's team, along with the Mandalorians, looted this place to a faretheewell three thousand years ago, right?" he asks sarcastically, taking advantage of the opportunity.
Count Dooku does not take kindly to being all but openly called an idiot... especially by a Jedi.

"I don't recognise you, boy. Who are you?" says Dooku.

Matt takes the opportunity for another sarcastic comment, "Who're you calling Boy, Geezer? And as for who I am, well, that's none of your business, now, is it, Old Timer?"
Mara is practically doubled over in laughter at seeing the Sith who'd fought Master Yoda to a standstill on Geonosis be insulted to his face by her Master.

"Enough of this foolishness." says Dooku as he unleashes Force Lightning from both hands.

Matt ignites his double-bladed lightsaber and blocks the attack before returning the Force Lightning with interest. "Let's see how you like it," he says.
Dooku manages to evade the Force Lightning. He then ignites his lightsaber and attacks.

"Impressive, my boy. Perhaps you would be of use to me and my Separatist allies. Don't make me destroy you." says Dooku as he attacks.

"Then you will die!" barks the aged fox as he leaps at Matt, who moves out of the way. Dooku's saber cuts through part of Barguans armor, severing the clone's left forearm at the elbow.
"AAARRRRGGGGG!!!!!" growls Barquan in pain.
