Samka Derith
Decitus Ren
The temple was tantalisingly close now. Sam yearned to be there and seize it for herself, the sooner the better. The facility she had spent her teenage years in on Dosuun was impressive, state of the art and held all she could wish for. Areas for acolytes to train, study, rest, dine and even a few places solely for leisure, she had fond memories of practising her singing before the other acolytes in the leisure rooms but as her time there ticked on she grew envious of the grand temples used by the Jedi and Sith orders. This citadel would be their grand temple to equal anything those other groups had built, she would make sure of that. So the delays were coming as some frustration to her.
@Iroatas had vanished up ahead. His voice chirped over the com that he had been off to track down and destroy a nest of vornskr and set off at such a determined pace that Sam could only keep up with him if she jogged, a pointless activity which would rob her of any energy in this heat. [member="Darth Veles"] had disappeared with him, no doubt some Sith trickery was involved, so she stood in place to wait for the rest of the party to fully catch up with her to resume their trek. Besides she could sense... something in the jungle. The effects of the yaslamir lizards had dulled her senses so she couldn't be certain what but it made her feel uneasy.
Iroatas spoke over the com again, claiming he was about to wipe out the vornskr nest. This time she saw it fit to reply. "We have a scout for precisely this sort of situation," she said briefly glancing at [member="Jaron Lesan"]. "Pest control can wait until we have ascertained whether this citadel is truly worthy of becoming the base for our order." With no immediate reply from the creature Sam let out an exasperated sigh and tightly gripped her parasol with both hands, twirling it around to express her irritation.
Whatever Sam could sense before suddenly exploded with the power of the Dark Side. Anger, hatred and a trace of fear emanated from the jungle. "You feel that, don't you? How could you not?" Sam spoke loudly to address all the men and women present yet kept her eyes fixed on where she could sense this new presence coming from among the trees. "We are being stalked."
A few beasts could have been ignored without delaying their journey but a sentient being, a Force user at that, could not. They could have been a spy for their many enemies. [member="Anor Ren"] then moved swiftly to where the signature had come from. Sam walked back to speak to [member="Isla Ashen"]. "Will he be safe alone? I feel I should give assistance just to be sure." She asked with a raised brow. The red haired Ren knew the capabilities of the others more than Sam but it didn't change that this new presence had capabilities unknown by any of them.
