An Empress, A Prince, And Some Commoner.

[Nyx]

When she had first met [member="Solan Charr"], she didn't expect him to ever contact her again. Had he healed her face? Yeah. Was she grateful? Of course. But the way she saw it, he had nothing to gain from ever speaking to her again.​

And yet, here she was, on a shuttle to some planet called 'Effekt'. Nyx had never heard of it, but she supposed that didn't really matter that much. The woman hadn't heard of a lot of places, but that didn't mean they didn't exist.​

​

As the shuttle neared the spaceport where Solan had said to meet him, Nyx nervously cracked her knuckles. She had no idea what she was doing here, but she supposed that it didn't really matter at that point. Her life was like that recently, just a bunch of stuff happening that she had to deal with. Oh well. Perhaps this encounter with the Shadow Prince would shed some light on the situation.​

It was a that moment that the shuttle landed, and Nyx took a deep breath before stepping onto the surface of Effekt, looking around for any trace of the flirtatious Prince,​

Solan would be in no way far from where Nyx landed her ship, infact his very form was in a cafe across from the spaceport to which he had in his hand a glass of tea as per usual with him. It was a fine beverage for him and especially one he could enjoy. He had not only called Nyx though as he had contacted Nimue while on the planet too, albeit with much more ease than it took to fine and get Nyx to come here. Sure he could have just sat at home and had it happen but he believed that this place would act as a much better site. That and he had not finished repairing the the sacred site of his own people and the last thing he needed was to throw around force powers when that was being done.

He did wonder for a few moments how much longer it would take for Nimue to arrive than the girl whom he already sensed, expanding his own force aura to give Nyx something to follow if she could. It would be easy to find him in the chaos of the Starport and he was in the open at the Cafe, this should not take long at all.

 

[Nimue Stormson]

Not five minutes after landing and already Nimue hated the spaceport. Why? It was cramped. Crowded. Felt too artificial for her liking. And all the while she felt it smelled worse than half the planets she ever visited. Whatever the reason was that [member="Solan Charr"] had called her here it had better have been a good one. She'd not heard from him in some time, mainly because she was awaiting the right time to break some important news to him. Though apparently he had something for her instead. She arrived in her larger royal shuttle before exiting with an escort of four guards. Her appearance, and the appearance of her men, had caught the attention of most. Though it seemed clear royals were not an uncommon sort to come to this place; something that surprised Nimue in a more annoyed way than anything else. ​

​

Finding the cafe' where Solan waited she approached him, wasted no time in finding a seat next to him, and saying bluntly "Next time I decide where we meet. This place is atrocious." ​

 

[Nyx]

When [member="Solan Charr"] opened his Force aura, Nyx caught onto it easily enough. She was never that good at sensing things, but this signal was practically a flare to her. She located the Shadow Prince sitting at a cafe across from the spaceport, along with [member="Nimue Stormson"] and what looked like body guards. She wondered who the woman sitting with Solan was as she approached them, keeping a wary eye on the guards. In her experience, if you were important enough to have bodyguards, then you didn't interact with lowly mercs without a damn good reason; and she was starting to suspect that their mutual friend did have a damn good reason.​

​

"Well, well, if it isn't Prince Charming himself." Nyx greeted as she plopped into a chair at the two's table, leaning back while casually keeping a hand near her blaster's holster. She was cautious to a fault.​

"So, what am I doing here? And who's your lady friend?"​

Solan was sitting there and reading off a piece of holonews when Nimue arrived. His lips at the brim of the glass and his eyes focusing on the liquid as it touched his lips until he lowered it and smiled as he waved to the seat before him. "Ahh, Nimue. Take a seat my dear. I promise you that the reason i called you here will be one of a unique variety. I would not have had it any other way, seeing as any other call would have been a lost chance. How is Asterion by the way?" He smiled at her and glanced to the space port. There was the presence that he was waiting for and he only smiled a bit more as slowly Nyx came into view. This would be a few seconds after Nimue answered him if she did but soon the body of Nyx was standing by the table and speaking.

"Ahh, Nyx. Good you arrived to where i needed you... i see the psychotic witch is gone..." He looked past her before nodding and turning his head and hand to Nimue. "This is Nimue Stormson, Nimue, this is Nyx. I called her here because i believe it is due time that we all met eachother due to Nyx's need for a less... damaging master." He glanced at Nyx now. "Which, i see it healed quite well Beautiful."

 

[Nimue Stormson]

When [member="Solan Charr"] had asked Nimue said "He's fine. As is Morgana. Which reminds me I..." she was about to begin before [member="Nyx"] had arrived. A good exainination of the girl indicatied she came from a less than privalged background and seemed to have endured a lot in her time; given the scars and beaten, ruggid exterior of her face. When Nyx had called her a "lady friend" Nimue seemed offended and ready to say something before Solan had answered. After that she listened to Solan as he introduced her and further explained why she was brought here to eet with her. When it came down to it Nimue was suprised and asked "Master? Me?" she glanced at Nyx and asked "You mean to her?"​

 

[Nyx]

At the mention of Mordred, Nyx winced and absentmindedly rubbed her side, where the latest round of 'training' had left a few more scars and burns than usual. The Miraluka had become more sadistic than usual, and the constant abuse was starting to tire Nyx. But did she mention that to [member="Solan Charr"]? No. As far as he knew, the worst incident had been the krayt dragon. She didn't need to burden her friend with her problems, he had enough to worry about, she was sure.
Then he made the announcement. A new Master. . .Nyx kept herself from crying in joy, but not by much.
"A non-psychotic Master that won't get half my face cut off? How could I say no?." She joked, looking at [member="Nimue Stormson"] for her reaction.
Not what she expected, but then again, she had never even met the woman; how could she predict her behavior?
But the question seemed more directed at Solan, so she let him answer.

 

[Aithne Charr]

[member="Nimue Stormson"] [member="Nyx"]

"Yes and don't worry there Nyx. Nimue only ever is kindish to people, more than others." He gave Nimue a quick glance and grin at the comment before returning his gaze to Nyx. "I had also wanted to ask if you would think about not one but two people training you rather than one. It will improve the speed of your training as well as help introduce Nimue here to the process if you have not trained anyone before Nimue. As well as give me time around two beautiful women who actually welcome my company past that of my daughter."

 

[Nimue Stormson]

While [member="Solan Charr"] explained the situation to [member="Nyx"] Nimue sat there still a little shocked by his proposal. She was suppoed to be a teacher to this girl? She didn't even know if she had what it took to be one, let alone actually act as one. The girl seemed the sort who would be better with a more aggressive sort of trainer, she thought. But then, as she saw her expression, Nimue felt as though she had the wrong sort of teacher already. She lite up at the prospect of having Nimue and Solan as teachers, a clear indication that she wanted them more than whoever had taught her in the past. When Solan had called Nimue "kindsih" she shot him an annoyed glance. ​

​

When he also said enjoying the company of two beautiful Nimue commented "I'm starting to not enjoy YOURS." to herself. After that she sighed and said "Why do you want me to do this? Is this some sort of revenge for...well you know." she said in reference to what only Solan would understand. ​

 

[Nyx]

Nyx blinked once more in surprise.​

Two teachers? That wasn't something she had expected. But then again, what about this had she expected? The correct answer was 'nothing'. She had expected none of this.​

Why was [member="Solan Charr"] doing this for her? What had she ever done for him? Generosity was something she would never understand.​

She was so taken aback by the offer that she found she had no words, and simply let Solan and [member="Nimue Stormson"] converse while she sat, deep in thought.​

 

[Aithne Charr]

[member="Nimue Stormson"] [member="Nyx"]

"You wound me Nimue, and infront of another friend. For shame." He smiled at his friend and turned his eyes to Nyx as he could tell she was deep in thought and very surprised. "No, this is not revenge. You nimue are skilled and a person whom i can trust. Someone i would lay down my life for to defend and a friend just like those in the Vitae... And with that said as is nyx. Though ive only met her a few times, one of those times being quite a pain on her. I will say this, Nyx is talented enough as well as nothing like a sith but no where near moral enough to be a Jedi... no offense. No one here is cut out to be a jedi so its not a insult."

He paused and leaned back as he looked around him. "There are thousands of people around us, alot of them have the prospect of one day doing something great, alot of them will lead normal lives. But Nyx is the only one around us with the potential for what you and I can do Nimue. She is the only one with the gift that you and I have and as it is our duty we should take the time to help her nurture it ourselves or find someone who can. And Nyx, this is as much Nimue's choice to teach you as it is your own to tell her that you do not wish to be trained by her or myself. If we forced you to train our way then I would be no better than the people a scorn and speak ill of." Now he shut up, waiting for both of their responses and seeing if both of them or neither of them would wish to train with eachother. But if Nyx accepted and Nimue was willing to teach her... Solan was confident of the pair.

 

[Nimue Stormson]

After [member="Solan Charr"] had given his grand speech and [member="Nyx"] seemed eager to want to be trained by two powerful Dark Jedi like them Nimue needed a moment. She had expected, and hoped, that her own daughter would be the first person she ever actually trained in the ways of the Force. Though thinking on it Morgana had already enough teachings from the Jedi which, as she had discovered, were not very similar to the darker yet helpful methods she used. And if Solan was correct then perhaps having two teachers for support would do this girl better than one; especially when both were of royal blood lines and yet had different perspectives of the force when it came to gender. ​

​

A little sigh came from the Empress before she said "Very well." looking to Nyx she pointed out "But slip up too much and you can find someone else for the position." She then pointed to Solan and added "And you'll owe me a lot for this."​

 

[Nyx]

Nyx's face grew into a smile. For once in her life, things looked like they were going well for her.​

She looked at the two people that were going to instruct her in the Force, and felt like this was good. With enough power from them, then Nyx could take Darth Mordred, and take revenge for the pain, the suffering.​

"Yes, I understand. I won't let you down, Master." She replied to [member="Nimue Stormson"] eagerly. Force, she couldn't believe she could apply that to anyone other than that sadistic Miraluka. It felt good.​

"So, where do we go from here?"​

Nyx was ready, and for once in her life, eager to see what happened next.​

​

[member="Solan Charr"]​

[member="Nimue Stormson"] [member="Nyx"]

Solan simply sat back this time and drank from the tea infront of him. Step one for the both of them was to see how they matched up but he would let them figure that out for now. Perhaps in the end he was wrong, perhaps they would not mesh and if they did not he had other she could introduce Nyx too. Old enemies, old friends, everyone under the sun and if it still did not work, then he would have to teach her himself. But he would let others who have yet to visit the path that they are now give like Nimue, and see how they handle it.

 

[Nimue Stormson]

Since [member="Solan Charr"] wa quiet it seemed clear Nimue had to be the one to decide where things would go from here. "I suppose it'll be back home. You'll have your own room and board if you prefer, and there's plenty of room to train in and servants who can tend to your needs." Nimue stood indicating for [member="Nyx"] to come with her, before giving Solan an annoyed look. Whatever else happened this was all his fault, that was for sure. ​

 

[Nyx]

Well, she supposed-​

Wait. Did she say servants?​

As in, people whose sole job in life was to ensure her happiness?​

She shot up from the chair, straightening her jacket.​

"Servants? Room and board? What are we waiting for?"​

Nyx happily followed [member="Nimue Stormson"], turning and mouthing 'I owe you' to [member="Solan Charr"].​

She had the distinct feeling she was going to enjoy this.​

 

[Aithne Charr]

[member="Nimue Stormson"] [member="Nyx"]

"Don't go running off without me, i just got back from Nam after all so i might be slow." He saw the looks each of them gave him, one grateful and one slightly annoyed. And all he could do was smile at the two woman as he mused to himself. The words that came to his mind would not be heard by Nimue or Nyx, only the Ashlan wolf that moved its way out of his Jacket now and sat on his shoulder could hear now. Its glowing blue fur and short stature making it look like a tiny cat rather than a wolf. 'They sure are going to be a strange couple, as different a master and student can be, but still i have a good idea they will learn to get along with eachother. Don't you think Kira?' His eyes drifted to the clear as day creature on his shoulder, name after the dead mother of his child whom he had only known for a short time. Part of his way of honoring her and the Ashlan understood this and accepted it.
