Private Nouqai's Prologue

[Nouqai Veil]

Date: 12 years ago. Location: Bastion
Playing NPC: Kephi Qi, currently deceased, nouqai's former master

The council had deployed the two on a mission to inspect the facility underground where they'd receive reports that sith emperor Darth Carnifex was using to experiment and create beasts from the newly acquired Rathrar. There was enough gruesome hideous creatures in the galaxy and they did not need more of them. Mission, to destroy said creations especially the Rathrar. It was easy enough. The Nautolan wasn't subtle, she had quite the flare for the dramatic, however, while creating a hole through the imperial palace would certainly be fun, they were undercover. Instead, the Nautolan had parked the ship a distance away from the palace near the cavern of hills.

"Nice outfit." Kephi joked as they stepped out of the ship, she too was wearing the same dark colours - they were dressed like sith, dark robes and masked faces. The mission here wasn't to fight the sith, only eradicate the creatures. The darkness in the world was overwhelming - and it wasn't because of the late hour of night. "Try and keep up." The Nautolan said, before force jumping in the direction of the facility.

"It's not one I wanted to wear." Again. Kahlil let out a sigh as he looked over the familiar streets of Bastion. He didn't exactly want to be back here, but he knew more of what was being made than any other. And why it needed to be stopped. He walked alongside her, occasionally glancing down the side paths for any extra eyes on them. There would be, eventually.

Not even Sith could roam unwatched here.

"Where is the lab, exactly?"

Unlike a few others at the temple, Kephi was not aware of Kahlil's past, especially not the fact that he was a child of the eternal father. They were merely colleagues, now sent on a mission together. The nautolan would tap on the data pad on her wrist, a small holographic map appearing. Like a birds eye view, "Our target is right there," She said, zooming in to the tall structure - the palace. "The imperial palace... the labs on the floors underground."

They were moving right to sith HQ. It was dangerous territory.

 

[Kahlil Noble]

"Of course it is."

It made sense, naturally. His own labs were scattered and hidden, but it didn't surprise him that his father didn't need to hide. And they had to walk right into the temple itself. He reached up a hand, idly retracing the same rune he had been since they arrived. Obscurity. It helped to keep them at least somewhat hidden, though he wasn't certain for how much longer.

"Then let's get down. I assume you got the codes needed to go downstairs?"
