Old Friends

[Darth Pyrrhus]

​

Location:
Tython

Darth Pyrrhus' personal ship had taken him to Tython. His flagship remained in orbit above. The pilot had been left behind to guard the ship, but due to the nature of the Phasma-class Infiltrator he imagined it would manage to remain hidden well enough. The Togruta had set out on a hike up the mountain range for the privacy and peace of mind it provided. The view was both mighty and breathtaking. The ledge he was standing on looked like the tongue of some ancient beast, frozen into rock by some power greater than itself. From it he had an excellent view to the clear blue river deep down in the valley. If he took a dive from here, would he live? Looking down, he realised he did fancy a swim right about now.

The planet of Tython was as rich in history as it was in the Force. He felt it all around him. It seemed a fitting location for a little reunion. He had made sure [member="Greta Kohler"] got the appropriate coordinates. It had been a long while since he last had laid eyes on the blonde. High time to change that. Tython was but another symbolic location this Sith had intended to visit in recent times. He came to meditate, seeking answers, let the very fabric of the Force itself speak to him as he plotted his next move.

Pyrrhus sat cross-legged on the very edge of the mountain's tip. The dark robes he always wore were folded and put in place under a medium sized rock. He wanted to feel the elements upon his red skin, not shield himself from them. Aside from occasional chill winds, the temperature was far from uncomfortable. His clothes matched the robe that lay behind him, grey upon black. The uniform of a Sith. They fit him well, framing in broad shoulders and powerful chest nicely. As always, the hilt of a curved lightsaber, decorated with a light bone overlay, remained attached to his belt.

Greta was heading to Tython. She'd received the invitation from an old friend, [member="Darth Pyrrhus"] and the coordinates that pinpointed where they were supposed to meet came over clearly enough. It's been a long time since she had seen the Togruta Sith Lord and she longed to see him once more. He'd been one of her oldest friends and his company was always welcome. Taking her personal corvette straight down into the planet, with no subtlety whatsoever, the breathtaking vistas greeted her as they broke the atmosphere of the gorgeous planet. One of these days, she had to learn to use a good dose of stealth and subtlety, or the sith knight would no doubt get her into serious trouble eventually down the road.

Landing on the base of a cliff not too far away from their intended meeting point, the blonde walked down the ramp, clad not in her armoured form, but instead casually in robes of obsidian that clung loosely onto her figure. She was not heading into war or battle and saw no need donning armour just to meet an old friend. If by any chance the armour was needed all the same, it was still available and waiting for her back in the ship. Her lightsaber was attached to her belt was per usual, but other than that she carried no other weapon for she had the force at her disposal. The force itself was a great weapon in it's own right. Greta may not have caught sight of him just yet, but the presence of him in the force was definitely recognisable.

Sending him a playful nudge in the force, Greta began to make her approach towards the Sith Lord on the edge of the cliff.

The familiar presence of [member="Greta Kohler"] drew ever nearer. Though she might have changed or grown since last time, he felt like he would know her well all the same. It would be as if no time had passed at all. Those two had always gotten along well. Only as he felt her finally reach the planet and start heading his way did he truly realise that it had been far too long since last time. It would be good to see her again. Pyrrhus felt her playful nudge through the Force. His eyes opened, acknowledging that he would not be able to focus after that. He reached out with the Force to send a playful nudge in return, as if to let her know the message was received.

He rose to his feet, turning his back to the ledge and the great fall length below. Soon enough he was re-introduced to another striking view. A quick memory flashed back over his mind of their very first encounter. Had it been Csilla? He couldn't recall if he had still been an Acolyte then... No, he had just been Knighted. In fact it had been his first assignment after becoming a Knight. He most certainly had not forgotten their spar in the underwater cave that later became the Sith Academy of Glee Anselm, or the form-fitting bodyglove she had worn. He wondered how they would fare against each other compared to then, should they spar again.

"Greta" he said in greeting. The tone of his voice now was one not too many people were privy to. "It's been too long"

Pyrrhus or rather Tanek as she had known him to be, sent his reply through the force, and she sensed it well enough. She was expecting him to reply in the same fashion that she had sent out the greeting, and he did not disappoint. Great. She soon approached and gained sight of her old friend clad in unassuming black garb not surprising for one of the Sith. She had seen many a togruta, but none struck her quite as much as [member="Darth Pyrrhus"] did. His red skin always seemed to emanate a certain aura that made her feel a tingling sensation, which was strange because he did look rather intimidating to most, but for some unexplainable reason, she felt otherwise. It was a rather peculiar situation she found herself in and it wasn't often at all that she felt this way.

Instead of greeting him with a Pyrrhus, she instead chose his own name. "Tanek. It has indeed been too long. I trust you have been well?" Her eyes would travel all over him, recollecting the time when they had spared quite a time ago back at Glee Anselm, and his body was still as fit as ever. "I bet you've been busy. You're not one to stay idle, if I remember correctly." Her thoughts briefly wondered to the spar they had then, and knew that he would most probably have no problem besting her easily now. It's been quite a while after all, and she'd been slacking after all.
