Boethiah
Dark Messiah
Since conquered, denizens of Ravelin lived today like they did any other. The markets were busy, the bustling of merchants resonated amongst the banter of common folk and the laughter of drunkards could escape the music of corner cantinas. So to some it was odd that this capital of the holiest would be the least pure of their worlds in essence.
There were changes, however. For one there were disappearances... People were gone, Bleeding Sun agents would find any safehouses for resistance and deal with them. Cantinas were discreetly being shut down; brothels, drughouses, and other illicit facilities too found themselves victim to these inquisitors.
So as each day went by the unknowing people of Ravelin were slowly being pulled into the fold.
Although these several worlds were now theirs, star systems of wealth, mystery, and some less amazing. But what secrets lied in them? What potential power could she achieve by studying them? The Primeval had only just begun to consolidate themselves and establish a foothold. Their only true opponent are the Mandalorians who contest these zealots expansionism.
Footsteps approached the throne, "Your Worship, forgive my interruption.." A rather old man with grey hair and a long thick beard took a deep bow. He was the administrator of Ravelin and local who knew the people well. Anja employed him as her eyes and ears within the city.
The Host Lord moved a hand under her chin before sitting up. "What is it?" Her questioning was short; he would spit it out soon enough.
"I -- The people," he paused and cleared his throat. "They're wondering why two cantinas were closed this week by your..."
"If they're asking questions then tell them the truth. Those who ran them were sinners and harbouring resentment towards the true Gods." In all honesty she knew well enough that this approach would cause the citizens to panic. She did not fear a revolt at this point but that is not why she said so.
The man was clearly anxious towards what she said. "The wrong answer could lead to catastrophic consequences for the people of Ravelin." He protested.
"Then do what you think is best... I want to see what you think should be done about the situation."
Just as the man was about to speak the doors opened once again. This time her own soldiers entered...
And to think today would be boring.

Anja couldn't help but ponder on their recent conquests... Although these several worlds were now theirs, star systems of wealth, mystery, and some less amazing. But what secrets lied in them? What potential power could she achieve by studying them? The Primeval had only just begun to consolidate themselves and establish a foothold.

There is no objective to this thread. Simply do what you'd like, wander about Bastion's capital city and create your own mini-stories. If you'd like to plan one with fellow members go ahead and don't shy away from crossing paths with other characters.
Let's see where this takes us, shall we?
