Talzin stood there for the longest time thinking. Allowing her son, Obi-wan and the other Jedi to stay could cause a commotion within her clan. However, if she let them leave she would be unable to protect her own son that was taken from her. Although if he stayed, she wouldn't be able to foresee any future approaches of this powerful Sith.

The old witch lifted her head and looked at her son and Obi-wan. She watched them for a moment before approaching the pair.

"My son, you said this Plagueis is more powerful than Sidious was." Mother Talzin's voice unusually quiet as she only wanted the two to hear her.

"Yes, he is. He caused me to momentarily turn to the dark side and attack the Jedi masters and Maul. I didn't know if I would turn back to normal." Obi-wan spoke before Maul.

"Plagueis is a manipulator he can hide in plain sight. He could even hide his presence to Sidious." Maul commented "It's useless to think that anyone can keep me from Plagueis. I could hide in the depths of the Unknown Regions and he would still find me."

"Don't think like that Maul. We're not trying to hide you anymore. Everyone is here on Dathomir to keep Plagueis from taking you. They're here to protect you." Obi-wan's voice raised as he spoke.

"My son." Mother Talzin started cradling Maul's cheek in her hand. "There is so much that even I still need to learn and even I can not see everything that may come our way, however, I am not letting you leave our home with those Jedi. Kenobi has still yet to prove that he will not be a danger to our clan. But I can see that he is of no danger to the clan. If you believe that you need more guards other than your clan and Kenobi, then I shall let a few Jedi temporarily stay with us until this Plagueis problem is done with."

Maul gazed upon his mother with wide eyes.

"You're letting me decide whether the Jedi can stay or not?"

Maul's voice was heard by all that stood around them. The shock flooded all the Nightsisters and Jedi. This had concerned the Jedi and the Nightsisters. The Jedi had already had many fights with the old Sith Apprentice and the renounced Jedi Knight. The Nightsisters only had heard of Maul saving the Nightbrother village from a deranged Rancor and watched him run for his life and force push their sisters that dared to walk in the general direction that he was running. The Nightsisters trust in Maul was wavering and now they are supposed to trust Talzin in trusting her son who was from what they were told mental disturbed by his past.

Maul looked over at Obi-wan as if asking for permission or approval or something. Maul's eyes locked onto Obi-wan's drowning himself in the relaxing deep blue color. After drinking in the eternal color of Obi-wan's eyes, Maul looks back at his mother's eyes that were a lighter blue that was filled with dark grey. It took him a moment to process all the thought that we're running through his mind.

"We will need Jedi here since I am to stay." Maul's voice was steady and certain as his gaze turned from his mother to the group of Jedi.

"Who will you require to stay here?" Mother Talzin walked with Maul as he approached the Jedi.

"The Jedi I need to stay..." Maul paused as he gazed at the large group of Jedi "is Jedi Master Ti and Qui-gon Jinn." 

"Is that all you require, my son?" Talzin asked watching Maul turn away from the Jedi with his eyes closed.

"And Jedi Master Mace Windu."
