The cacophony of battle was like a beautiful symphony, each blaster volley, cry of rage, rapturous explosion of artillery shell wove together to form a beautiful tapestry of fire and ruin. It was a song that the Blackblade Guard had memorized thoroughly, becoming so in tune with its melody that it was second nature to them at this point. They moved as one through the smoke and the haze of battle, each wordlessly coordinating with one another with such fluid movement it bordered on the unnatural.
Behind them were those less accustomed to teamwork.
They bickered and brooded, the three Knight Proteges of the Emperor often quipping at each other in some farcical attempt to one-up the other. The Inquisitor and the Clone remained silent, the former distracted by his own thoughts while the latter remained focused on the task ahead. Crimson sabers lashed out to deflect stray blaster bolts or cut deep into soldiers loyal to the Jedi cause, leaving them strewn and broken upon the devastation of the war zone.
Rarely did they encounter a Jedi, but when they did it was a combination of numbers and cheap tactics that brokered a victory for the Sith. They had not yet encountered members of the Lords of Light, but that time was rapidly coming to an end as they finally joined the battle proper.
