Now you see me, now you don't

"You could say that," she said with a wink as Ice arrived and started to dig.

"This is a huge deposit of stygium," she continued, looking around the tunnel, the crystals sparkling on her purple eyes. Her mind was contemplating so many things right now involving this much stygium, but she would refrain from pursing them and not antagonizing her lover. "I'm guessing there are deposits like this across the entire planet?"

Not bothering to wait for an answer, she dug into some of the loose crystals while levitating others with the Force and moving them to a collector bin. Still using the Force, she noticed a large formation of the crystals and gripped it within the Force. The formation shuddered a moment before it shattered into smaller pieces from the force of her Force Grip and she started moving those into the bins as well.

"It's amazing what one can do with the Force" she said with a grin, focusing on another formation and shattering it for the droids to pick up.

Ice gave her a nod as they both continued to work. Though he was more so just enjoying the view of her form that working overly hard. "Aye. This planet seems to have formed along a highly crystallized route. Metals are actually quite a rarity here. But crystals of all types are quite abundant." She, like him, was an incredibly curious sort. They seemed to both have an insatiable desire to learn. Always wanting to know how things worked. Always wanting to figure out a way to build whatever it was that popped into there heads, and then build it better.

While he wished he could share much more with her, her current loyalties still made him nervous. So he sadly always felt the need to hold some things back, not because he didn't trust her so much. But because he didn't trust her superiors. Casting the thought aside as this was proving to be quite the happy day, he took another glance at her activities.

It was a curious thing to watch her shatter rock with nothing more than a thought. He really wondered if he should try and get her to teach him about this power, considering she claimed he too possessed it. The thought of learning from the dark side of the force, he believed was how they said it though, still concerned him. The idea of turning into some crazy power hungry maniac bent on destroying the galaxy was not his cup of tea. How she managed to stay so even keel when almost all others couldn't was still a wonder to him. One that he very much appreciated, however.

After a long time spent in the new stygium mine, with plenty of material for the both of them to use having been mined and sent to secure transports, they left the world of Enigma Prime behind. She made sure to not look at any astrogation charts for the world, as promised, but she couldn't help noting certain stars in the sky. Regardless, she doubted she would be back anytime soon. She had duties with the Sith to attend to after all, and Ice had other projects that needed his attention.
