Each blow brought with it the might of an empire. Each blow rattled Vaulkhar's body and left him recovering as his free hand would move up to parry the following strike. The speed, strength, and raw control of the force his father employed made him one of the most powerful beings in the galaxy. Few could truly stand against the might of the Dark Lord now, even in his twilight years. The emperor's wayward son was not one of those people. He was skilled, well trained, and carried within his bloodline the prodigious strength of his father. Even with all of that at his disposal, it wasn't enough. He was growing tired with each attack he blocked or parried, his body ached and grew sluggish. Though the fight was relatively short, the overwhelming force of Vaulkhar's opponent was enough that he knew the end was quickly approaching.
With a deep breath, he steeled himself. He called the force to his aid and slid the lightsaber in his left hand back onto his belt. The force flowed through his body, strengthening his body supernaturally. As his father's saber came down in a downward arc, his left arm shot up to meet it. The bastard caught hold of the blade with his cybernetic, armored, right hand and clamped down. The crushgaunt's vice-grip and his enhanced strength locking up nice and tight on the weapon. Vaulkhar looked up, his icy-blue gaze locked on his father's baleful, bloodshot eyes. Behind him, Darth Carnifex would likely see the dozens of evacuation ships carrying the planet's defenders and citizens upward to the stars. Many would likely die, but others would escape beyond the dark clutches of the Sith Empire.
"
Kintan may fall, but many still survive. In this planets ashes, hope will rise with the Jedi, father," Vaulkhar grit his teeth and struggled against the giant's strength. He allowed his second saber to fall and motioned around them. "
These victories you claim will not last forever. The true Sith will rise against you and when they do, the Jedi will strike you all down."
