Haunted Forest

Sawa looked at her and smiled wider. "Well the planet is a mining world, it has been mostly stripped into a desert by cen turies of over mining but there are some mines that still produce and the people there protect their interests." She thought about it and knew the jedi, the mandalorians and the sith had gone there many times. "The bar homeever is where energy vampires can come and darksiders with the understanding that fighting is forbidden. We are enemies outside of the bar but inside it is neutral ground and violating that trust, that care will have a smal army of bouty hunters after you." Her hand came out though while her twi'lek moved to join her. Sitting on her lap and nuzzling into her shoulder while her lekku wriggled.

Enemies outside friends inside, that was quite the honor system they had going, but then again for a vampire sitting down and having a small glass of drink and spending time away from combat it but a mere blink of their life span. "Well I have been to my fair share of clubs and bars, but that sounds very different, though can a small army of bounty hunters really keep control of the situation? what fancy weapons have you given them to infroce the law of the place? or are most vampire just cool with the rules"? Guess with age one matures over such thoughts of wanting to smash the person next to you skull in, force knows she had gotten into quite a lot of bar fights when others patrons pissed her off. "You certainly are enjoying that Twi'lek Grandma, kind of envious".

"They can serve their purpose but for a creature with a long life, would you want to know that for as long as you are alive, for as long as you draw brearth you have the ire of one who can live just as long?" SHe smirked. "You have the power to hold a grudge for quite a long time my dear and it isn't just the one who upsets you that can be a victim.. their children, their children's children's children." The grin was on her face and it was more because she had the twi'lek. "Well I do enjoy her my sweet. You can have her if you wish of course. I am not greedy." Sawa licked her lips observing all of it and the rest of the room.

Grudges hum she certainly had a few of those, some where still alive other's where long dead, but Sawa once again did have a point, but that was once again kurenai's adept nature to being a vampire. For the last 800 years she had more or less just lived life as a human, taking on new names every few decades and starting from the bottom as a new person, more of less living a few dozen lives then being a vampire, "well I still have a long time to figure out how other vampire treat one another". For once in her life Kurenai wold probably once again be treated like a kid, something that felt rather strange, when around so many people younger then you, it was often lost on her that others could be older and deserve respect.

Sawa watched and observed but didn't say anything as she sat there... rather enjoying everythign that was happening when the older vampire had a moment. "Well you'll learn that treating each other is different for each, some hate each other will be territorial, others will welcome you as a friend and some will just seek to avoid you. We are all very different, with different methods to handle the solitude and time that we live." She shrugged. "it can be fun to kill as many as you want and bring attention or you could pick off a few here and there and never really kill anyone... either way it will be your choice and it is up to you to either respect the rules or set them down when you are with another."

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

Seek to avoid, that was something she was well versed in, keeping distance from other people for many different reasons, she understood, and territorial, well would not be the first humanoid race to exhibit beast like traits. "Well I am sure it will be a rewarding experience regardless, what does not kill me just makes me stronger, and many things have tried to kill me in the past... though I am sure you could relate". Sawa probably had many cases just like her mother in the past along with actual galactic conflicts. "Do not worry Great Grandmother, I will not do anything rash, or kill people without reasons, what do I look like an stuck up noble teenage that's first reaction to everything being violence". Okay that was a terrible joke, but it still was true, living a life on the battlefield one learnt there was a time and place for everything.

She was glad that Kurenai was understanding some of the things. She sat back in her seat and touched the arm rest while looking down towards the ones who came into the throne room. "Good and we shall see, someone killing you can be a problem but it is solvable... sometimes with force and sometimes by just wiping out their entire family. Easier said for us then most and we do have the added benefit of making it be something to suffer. Enslaving to our thrall their children... having them turn on their parents if need be or friends. Ruin their lives." She said it and was looking over reports about the construction efforts here and in Jar'kai itself that was being cleaned up and cleared out.

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

The way Sawa suggested ways of making peoples lives suffer was actually kind of scary, but at the same time there were a few people she wanted to have suffer before death, and if thrall where a thing, oh some people where in a world of hurt. "I have not really used my vampire powers to enslave anyone just yet, I would very much like to know how that works, do you have any enemies that need to made an example of Great Grandmother"? Perhaps an odd request, but if she was able to enslave even powerful figure head and force users, well her deadly nature would just increase, weather people knew or didn't.

Hmm did she have anyone who she really saw as an enemy.. She didn't see many as worth the time and keeping them around might annoy her more then please her... on the other hand beings like the ones who came to atrisia and declared themselves emperor well they were just tiring. She would rather they be taken down a few pegs if anything. "Perhaps." She let it sit there while looking out and staying there.... She could se the stronghold that was being built up so that they might have a few other things. "THough Jar'kai is full of many who might be detrimental to reconstructing Atrisia. We'll just have to work on that."

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

"Perhaps"? was that a yes or no? well she would soon find out, not like they where going anywhere anytime soon, though the part about Atrisia was interesting, but not surprising in the least. "When you say that do you mean turning it into an empire or just rebuilding it? because I have a feeling that many people would like to return Atrisia back into an empire to take over the Galaxy once more". Imperialist nature, reminded her of the Tieneses empire back on her fathers home world, though what happened there did not really reach the rest of the galaxy. "Anyways, are we doing anything else today Great Grandmother or shall we retire for the night"? they had been up for quite a while now and done quite a bit, though she doubted the Sith Lord was feeling sleepy.

"An empire would be grand wouldn't it, spreading the doctrine and power or Atrisia to the stars but no... I'd rather we rebuild Atrisia and make it into a shining example of power that others can envy. get proper planetary shielding, get soldiers and make stronger fleets and defenses." She said it while looking at what they had and... oh yes she had ideas of what they could do but that would have to wait. "As for tonight, there is nothing else I require. retire and enjoy the luxuries of the palace here. Most of the rooms have been restored so you'll have plenty of new and fresh beddings." There was a smirk on her face when she rose up and was going to the larger chambers behind and above the throne. Her rooms were more like their own palace but it served the function she needed.

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

"That is something I cane agree with, Atrisia can be powerful without needing to conquer other planets, it can be a powerful strong an well cultured planet all on it's own, a fortress world that can still be open to visitors". Though that would be enough talking for now it was time for rest and relaxation, it would be the first time she had actually resided in such a luxury palace before. "What can I expect to find in me new residence Great Grandmother? also what services? I am guessing you have a large range of servant to take care of any possible need"? Who knew, perhaps Sawa did have enough people to litterly take care of ANY need.

Hmm Sawa was thinking about it, what they might be able to do and what they might be able to have here. She knew they had soldiers being trained to become a new security force within the stronghold.. her warriors would be a nasty surprise for anyone who tried to come against them. She had servants as well for anything that might be needed and the people that she oversaw.. who produced the income of the stronghold in their little village below and benefited from her protection. IN the mountains it would be something to see though. "There are a few services for now we are still going to have merchants coming and the village is rebuilding just as much. So food and construction."

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

"Going to be making your own little kingdom right around here, that is kind of nice, trade for protection and all, I could see that working very well", an army fought on it's stomach, even droids needed some sort of supplement to a nearby village would be nice. "What ever the case is I will be retiring for the night, also I will have to retrieve my belonging from my ship and set up in my new room", she replied giving Sawa a small bow before turning around and heading back to her fighter, collecting the small traveling items she had brought. "So, where are my new living quarters anyways, I have a feeling I will be spending a lot of time here". More so if she could get training from her great grandmother, not something she was able to attain easily from other force users for some unexplained reason.

"THis way." Sawa had bowed her head and let her go off but they had rooms ready for anything. Walking across the rooms to one of the quarters. Thick marble columns that led to the door. Dark wood with lacquer on it to shine and a golden handle on the door as it opened up to the room. A suspended bed using repulsors and cords that made the large platform covered in a mattress of gel foam and sheets look almost ethereal. Around with shelves and places to keep your things, a small alcove with a table made for eight people to be hosted and all of the amenities one would need to live in luxury within their own palace. "It is small compared to some but well funished and you should enjoy it."

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

Kurenai had seen fancy beds, but not one that used repulsor tech to stay afloat, like a modern version of the water bed, everything about this room just being so... fancy. "This is a small room? well for me this single room is almost as large as half my house, and my house is rather large", not including the other rooms and outside area, but still it was big. "Oh I will Enjoy this, today has been a major revelation for me, though I will have to keep such a secret from certain people, I wonder how my children will react to this new knowledge and mother... where are you"? The mystery just kept getting bigger and bigger, like a murder case where more information was found, leading onto more questions, "I guess I shall bid you good night great grandmother".

Sawa looked at her and moved forward standing close as she moved her hands to touch her shoulders. "Goodnight great granddaughter." She said it with a smile on her face though and leaned forward to kiss her cheeks as hands went up to her face. "Enjoy the time you are here and remember it is always open for you and those delicious children you have." She said it backing away and into the shadows of the hallway when she was moving back to her room behind the throne itself. Ascending the stairs themselves passing the statues to go to sleep for the night. Her blood slave was there in the corner of the bed along with a few others before she went into the silk sheets and went to sleep.
