Hush the Storms
Viers remained hidden, listening to the conversation between the nervous girl and Lucy. A knot formed in the young woman's chest as she remained hidden; a sense of annoyance for the Princess's attention split. Viers pushed down the knot of emotions from her chest with a bite of steak; she decided it was potentially time to leave her cave under the table. Poking her head out, she remained hidden by the force cloak.
"Ahh!" Viers instantly dropped the Force cloak unexpectedly as she came face to face with the doppelganger of
Darth Caedes
. She stared at it and suddenly regained her composure. Once that happened, she disappeared again. Using protective invisibility, Viers wandered from under the table and headed around the room, seeing that more and more people had started to funnel their way in. Looking back, Viers caught the damage of her sticky fingers. She grinned; the plate that was on the table was obviously low, meat drippings staining the tablecloth. There was a dent in the amount of meat being served, for those still making their way to the feast would be severely disappointed at what was left for them. Viers was on a new mission; there had to be more food waiting to be devoured. With the amount of people in the room, she assumed that there was going to be more food being served. Weaving her way through the people, Viers found herself in a corner of the room, which allowed her an excellent vantage point to take in the entirety of the food displays. Vegetables and other fruits were displayed but untouched. While she did enjoy the sub food, meat was still king. Everything seemed to stay the same with the food being served. Viers frowned and decided she needed to be a proper guest.
She adjusted the mask that came with the uniform, pulling it off and letting the headdress rest over her shoulders. The uniform was stuffy; a part of her envied the lower-ranking students. They only had to wear the undershirt and pants or even less. There was a bit of freedom that she longed for. Still, the uniform protected her and allowed her this sense of invincibility within the Sith Empire. As time passed, Viers slowly realized this. Now fully visible, Viers pondered her next move; her eyes scanned each face almost as if she were looking for someone. Fingers tapped, dancing against her lips while she searched.
Letting her instincts move her, Viers wandered back towards Lucy. It seemed she had shaken the unexpected visitor from before. She was talking to a boy she was apparently familiar with. Viers had never seen him, her head tilted to the side as she nibbled on the tip of her index finger. "Hi. I found you, Princess" Viers spoke as soon as she worked towards where Lucy and the two men were standing. Remembering the manners taught to her at the elite school, her hand fell, and her hands folded behind her back. "I think they ran out of meat." Her eyes glanced towards the empty dishes, and her smile shifted into a sheepish grin. Looking back to Lucy, she nodded towards the boy who looked sick or like he had seen a ghost. "What happened to him? Did he see the scary guy, too?" Viers pointed with her thumb towards where they had been sitting and the doppelganger's appearance.
