Coryth Elaris
Shortstack of Fire
Coryth sighed softly, "It's not an easy tale to tell I'm afraid. And few people I've ever really told the complete details of what happened." That seemed like the most reasonable place to start the conversation.
"So, the story begins when I was just a Knight in the Jedi Order. A few months after my knighting ceremony, I was so young and naive back then." She sighed, "I'd recently been engaged to Andreas and life was good. Though, the Council in it's infinite wisdom." There might have been just the slightest hint of sarcasm in her last two words. For the council had always been a brainless bunch of fools and hypocrites in Coryth's eyes. "Had a habit of sending me on missions that I was ill suited for. They sent me to Tatooine." She shuddered at the mention of the planet. The same one that repeatedly tried to murder her everytime she stuck a toe in those hot sands. "To infiltrate a criminal syndicate. Something I was entirely unskilled for but that hardly matters. I didn't even make it to the bar that night to meet with my contact."
"I remember arriving, was early. I went to this little cafe for a cup of tea. Only a slight hint of warning came, mere moments before the sleeping darts hit my neck. By that point, it was too late to act. For the life of me, I couldn't make sense of it as I collapsed."
"It was what it was. I woke some time later, without clothing chained to a wall and without the force. And things then became much clearer as I learned who had taken me. In his search for immortality, a trait my fiance's line had managed, but he lacked. Xerexes was using me as bait, to get to my fiance, his cousin. He not only figured my pain would hasten Andreas along, but the sick bastard enjoyed cutting into people. I was held for a few months, tortured near daily. And I wish I could say that was where things ended but no, no .... It couldn't end with just brutal torture. He wished to ensure I was permanently marred and unwanted by anyone. So, my wounds were poisoned with an extremely slow acting version of Sith Poison that hindered any healing process. The wounds, all of them didn't heal over until nearly a year after." The same poison that had plagued her when Kaida first met the tiny redhead.
"Unfortunately scars were not the only thing he left me." For a moment Coryth bit at her lip, not sure she really wanted to say the words aloud. "He raped me, and as a result I became pregnant." Sighing, she reached up to wipe a tear away. "Had a baby girl. Gave her up for adoption." She finally said, and waited to let that sink in for a moment before she went any further.
