"Beautiful." The Dark Voice bellowed.

Powerful gusts tugged at his robes violently, the air was thin, the view however.. spectacular.

Vroom!

A single hypersonic roar flooded his senses, a single Eradicator class starfighter screamed by. The single vanguard of an encroaching storm not long behind. Mawite fighter craft and dropships carrying the zealous holy crusaders and fierce tribal marauders peeked through the clouds. Streaks of exhaust spat out in their wake as the sky thundered with their approach. It would not be long before green and red bolts of luminous laser fire would flicker back between earth and heavens above.

Glorious.

The Dark Lord stepped forward, leaning closer towards the 'edge' of his vantage point. Soon the vast cityscape of Cinnagar was in plain view. He could see the palace, the Great Library, and soon…

Rumble! Shake! Thunder!

"Ah, there it is."

The city quaked, there was a symphonic shockwave that melodied from the heart of the old capital. It percussioned a cloud made of duracrete and glasteel, crescendoing to the rise of the Iron Citadel. Soprano cries of terror, baratone wallows, and harmonic crashes filled the chorus of the Krath.

With the power of Sith Sorcery, their return was boldly broadcasted to the pretenders occupying the Tetan throne. They bore with them a gift, a secret long buried that ignited with eerie luminance filling the ancient ruin with a sickly emerald glow. The hypergate had opened.

"The time has come, daughter."

The beast roared beneath them.

Be a pool of water.

Like a lake...

cool... unmovable... without ripples...

Jem forced herself to envision it. The jedi meditation practice had once been a security blanket. Now its ragged form kept slipping through her fingers. Calm was not something Jem typically embodied but she stood at her father's side and force herself to remain still.

It was becoming harder every day to manage it.

Her father's corrupting measures seared through her veins and she suffered for it. Every moment was a battle inside her own mind. Every breath was effort-- a cognitive task of control.

She ignored her father. She ignored the city, she ignored the pending war. She was running out of ti--

A familiar presence cut through it all. Her attention jolted outwards, a pained gasp escaping through her lips. It only took a moment for her to make sense of the presence.

Not even the darkside could make her forget her master.


Her own presence was weak, barely identifiable amongst the corruption that threatened to swallow Jem whole. A warning image jolted through the tentative bond they still shared, powerful as it tried to drive itself like spikes into Dagon's mind.

Her father was coming. He was more powerful than ever before.




Jem winced and released the reigns from her grasp. The metal had warped under her fingers. "Yes father."

She let herself free fall to the ground, disembarking to... she no longer knew. She no longer asked questions. Her strength was conserved for one thing.

I am a lake.

The Sith are a superstitious cowardly lot.

From day one it has been so. The resurgence of the New Sith over the corpse of the old and decrepit on Thule. A pattern Solipsis had followed religiously throughout his crusade to warp and change reality itself. Logistical lines, strategic locations, all rational military targets had been delegated to the 'simpler' minds of the Final Dawn. Instead, he'd waged war against the hearts and minds of the galaxy, against the sole existence of the Jedi.

From torching to ash the Enclave at Jakku and the pilgrimage of Jedha to the massacres in the Sith Worlds and all the way to the heart of the Jedi, the home of galactic civilization - Coruscant. None could forget the Sacking of Coruscant that had driven the New Jedi to the edge of extinction.

This was no war of occupation, no war of tangible strategic value or anything of the sorts.

No, this has been an existential war. A war of life itself against the forces of entropy, of death.

A war to forever change the hierarchy of power and the natural order of the universe.

Forever.

The coronation on Teta - home of the legendary Krath, a dynasty known for its historical roots with the Sith. Where and when else could he have attacked? To make a point. To demonstrate true power. Symbols and superstition.

And yet, as predictable as Solipsis may have grown to be in the eyes of the Jedi, the question that truly held importance was neither where or when but could he be stopped?

Once more, they came in droves. Springing from the depths of an ancient, long-forgotten hypergate and cutting through the skies; a dark curtain enveloping the light and casting an impregnable shadow over the world.

The heavens hung in black.

In that unending sea of darkness converging in the skies, a behemoth of Sith Magic stood out. A creature born solely for the purpose to destroy and annihilate and atop it he could sense it. Not the twisted nature of the beast and neither the malicious maw of death that its master was. No. Her presence may have been like the sound of a nail falling into hay but to him... it was all he could hear.

"Jem..." he heard himself mutter, eyes narrowed unto the behemoth from his vantage point atop one of Cinnagar's many high rises cutting the clouds. A warning shuddered the rusty bond between master and apprentice, wedging itself into his lobe. Strong enough to force an involuntary step back.

It bore no threat, conveyed more like a friend's caution.

A moment later it abated, replaced by the malice of corruption which enveloped the sender and the weight of guilt upon the recipient.

It was time to move.

To act.

As always.

He caught her lithe form freefalling from the skies, an enviable feat she hadn't truly mastered before. Even this distant from her, Dagon could feel the power her father had provided her with. The shortcut. The easy way. A clear sign of his own failings as a mentor. It dug deep into his heart.

"Corin, we move to intercept her." Dagon said, unnatural gloom besetting the usual easy-going bravado he was known for. Solipsis would never send her away on a menial task. No, she was his key. The single soul in the whole wide galaxy he would trust.

The heiress of Apocalypse.

"Time for you to meet my... former apprentice."​

WRATH

The beast's roar rippled through the skies of Cinnagar like a hurricane wind. Smoke and fire spilled out as far as the eye could see as the battle for the soul of the planet began in earnest. A quick glance to his daughter saw her off as she made her way towards the edge of the floating behemoth. Without a hint of fear or doubt, the apprentice gracefully stepped off.

The Dark Lord of the Sith pressed his right foot forward and dug in, eyes like daggers following the trajectory of his kin. He hissed, extending his right hand forward, palm opening in gesture as the psychic connection between man and beast intensified. The Summa Verminoth groaned and dipped, diving towards the cityscape with it's tendrils extended out.


IMG_0281.png

A typhoon tugged at his robes relentlessly, fierce winds powerful enough to uproot him threatened to remove the Dark Voice from his fortified stance. He would not budge, the gusts were like waves breaking against the unmoving rock. Twin orbs of sulfuric hate glared down as the beast savagely slammed into a nearby tower, cleaving through an entire story.

Vroom!

Wherever the massive beast loomed, dust and debris followed in it's savage wake. Buildings partially collapsed if not outright crumbled under the weight of the apex predator. As the monstrosity circled, the Dark Voice lifted himself and cast off. Touching the empyrean, he gathered the Force and leapt from the dome of the Summa Verminoth, descending in a slow controlled fall.

He came down, eyes casting a terrible glare down towards the landing site of his kin. The Sith'ari's black robes enveloped around him, an umbral shroud that defied physics floating down. The Dark Voice lowered, drifting into a dust cloud kicked up by the rampant destruction around them. Smoke and ash filled the air, his form vanished completely, lost in the chaos.

"You may think this is suffering. No."


2316-D3-CA-4-E97-4-B52-AE8-F-50-C5-ABF7-B7-D1.jpg

"It is salvation."

The Dark Lord emerged from the fog of war, the smoke and dust rolling off his midnight cloak as the winds pressed against him. He advanced, eyes honed and ready.

"Dread it all you like. Run from it if you have to. The facts remain the same… huh.."

His gaze twisted away, immediately drawn to the final obstacle in his daughter's training and full conversion as a Sith.

"Time to let old things die. You know what you must do, do not hesitate."

His new Master had felt distant at times, as if an extended arm refused to allow them to become as close as some other students he had been. It wasn't as if Corin had not been all too aware of the Padawan that came before him, but he failed to realise that it was fear; fear of failure had seen the two remain focused on the business-end of their connection, to find interests outside the Jedi Order and their mission... that fear of loss. It never seemed to settle in Corin and at the mere mention of Jem, had Corin frowned. Not for his Master, but for himself - his mind lost all focus, all that he needed was lost as he turned into the second born to the favoured star.

He had too much to lose.

She could succeed into her father's embrace, or fail into her Master's.

Corin shut himself off from the chaos, and a breath followed in an effort to find some composure. To no avail.

The Padawan nodded towards Kaze as the world crumbled around them. He had no words for all of this, and followed his Master as the two traversed the ruins of Teta, of the same ones that continued to increase in destruction as each second came and went.

Some small amount of calm had found itself returned to Corin, but that sliver was tested once the distant two came into view and both Dagon and Corin came closer and closer. He was better than her, he assured himself, he was not so weak as to crumble onto a traitor's road and abandon all that he knew.


Jem fell without feeling. Lakes didn't enjoy the thrill of free falling through air. Lakes didn't care that buildings were exploding and lives were ending around it. Lakes moved for no one. Well...

Except pebbles. And wind. And feet-- and...


She followed his gaze, her gray skin loosing luster as she caught what held his attention. "I'm not running," she asserted quickly, trying to bring his attention back to her.

"I accept this-- I'll not--"



Her stomach fell out from under her. She was forced to meet her father's gaze, his very presence demanding her acknowledgment. She wanted to melt into a puddle. Those seemed less noticeable.

"Yes... father..." Stupid, stupid Dagon.

Her feet felt like foreign objects. They obeyed her father and moved her towards the one thing she did not want to face. She couldn't stop them, but she could control the speed. She moved with slow precision onto the roof ledge... she... braced... and arched gracefully through the air, from one roof top to the next. He had taught her that. Dagon. The idiot with a death wish. Every step towards him felt like shifting through cement, the bags under her eyes growing deeper as she hoped without hope that her father would look away.

She brace... and jumped again... the skies above crackling with streaks of red. She saw a tuff of black hair and stopped on that roof ledge.


"I gave you a chance to leave," she hissed, her voice reaching the figure masked by the shadows. Up close she was unrecognizable. Her once hearty, gold-tone complexion was now colorless and hallow. She had not slept nor eaten in days, sustained by the corruption that consumed her, and it showed. She was lifeless and frail, but she rippled with unmistakable power.

"You should have taken it. Master."

Dagon Kaze Dagon Kaze Corin Trenor Corin Trenor Darth Solipsis Darth Solipsis

There was a time before the bliss.

Those times and places were distant things, left to fade away into obscure stories told by hardened veterans and displaced refugees. Some found hope in those tales, while others looked upon them with abject hatred. When foreign and abstract ideals drove a boy to become something more. A monster who militarized an Order of masterless children and turned them into killing machines not seen since the times of Revan or Lord Hoth. Or maybe a hero, a symbol of unshaken hope that stood unbowed against the flowing tide of darkness.

A time better left in the past. Before the arrival of a loving family and nights spent in peace, where the greatest of toils were beer poured and food served.

Memories of pain, interwoven through the years by a sense of purpose.

Ryv sighed.

He looked up past the city limits, his gaze locked on the distant horizon. War came for him again. It appeared in the form of someone in need, as it always had. War promised him an end. A bloody one. Trapped, alone, away from his family in his final moments.

The tension in his chest, the storm of chaos that buzzed about the air like a swarm of starved locusts. He knew this place better than any other in the galaxy—a battlefield. Where the brave marched off to their death, and the foolish went to live.

There was a time when the kiffar longed for this feeling.

Now, Ryv yearned for the cozy armchair in his bedroom, where he would read to his children or tell them stories of his legendary exploits. It was a safe place. The memories dulled with the passage of years. War could not reach them there on Denon, not in the heart of his home. His territory.

But here on Empress Teta, within the city of Cinnagar, it had found him. War crawled closer, driven forth by the machinations of a mad man changed by alien designs the sane could not begin to fathom. A demented beast thundered towards the city. It hungered for innocent blood, to feast upon the dying breath of hope as pawns of light and shadow fell beneath its bulk.

In another time, on another world, the battle to determine the galaxy's fate would be fought.

Ryv paced across the flat top of a towering starscraper. He stepped up onto the ledge meant to separate him from a fatal plunge, his eyes never leaving the monstrous behemoth as it lumbered closer to its death.

"Fossk," Ryv uttered the name in a whisper, infused with subtle power. The words found the great empyrean like a smooth stone skipped across a calm lake. Power rolled through the ethereal, cutting through the ghostly echoes of battle between the Sword of the Jedi and the dreaded Sith'ari. "Surely you've waited long enough for this confrontation."

The sky above crackled with fury and laid its vengeance upon the world. Threads of life cut short by the pestilent hand of the Sith quivered as ripples throughout the ethereal. The air reeked of plasma and burnt flesh, filling his nostrils with that all too familiar stench of war. It dug into the very skin you wear and no moments of peace nor joy could ever wash it away.

Dagon wrinkled his nose. The New Jedi Order, baptized in the flames of the Stygian War, learned that reprieve was a luxury they could neither have nor could they afford.

Reprieve had filled the gutters of the galaxy with the blood of its sons and daughters. It's the only lesson the New Jedi ever learned from their absent masters.

The Jedi duo's traverse came to an abrupt end, cut off by the appearance of a hollow shadow standing in their way. A grey shadow of a once colorful past and fateful future. Grey like the skin of a dying man, dry as a funeral drum. And that drum banged loud, beating into a crescendo of grief and regret.



"You know I like beating my head against the wall." he dryly responded, the hilt of his saber materializing in his hand. It had come to this, hasn't it? The pinnacle of his failures and mistakes shaped the monster that stood before him. That had taken his apprentice away from him. But the corruption -- as tight as a tourniquet around her -- could be broken. Blood does not dictate fate, only what we do defines us.

He'd prove it to her.

Or die trying.

The Knight's eyes narrowed sideways at Corin, a plan of action on his tongue but never uttered. How could he? After all, the infallible chemistry he'd built was with the one standing against them, "I'll go low, you go high." he whispered. A simple stratagem indicating the fledgling progress they had made. Then hoarsely reminded, "No killing."

The proverbial bell rang with the snap-hiss of his blade and the Force surged through his feet sending him darting at her. His body folded into a crouch as the cerulean saber sought to make contact with her legs.

His daughter had accepted the dreaded task given to her and asserted herself ready. She was not, no one could ever truly ready themselves to make 'the Sacrifice'. It was spiritual collapse, a rebirth of identity as the last vestige of compassion was killed off along with those dearest to you. To complete her transition into a Sith, she had to cut the last link holding her to her former life as a Jedi.

She had to kill Dagon Kaze Dagon Kaze .

The Dark Lord had intended to follow and see the job done before his very eyes, to watch the life leave the Jedi as he fell at the hands of his very own apprentice. The one he fought so passionately to save, to redeem and bring home. He never understood the truth, she was home, where Jem belonged. Her destiny was intertwined with that of her Father's, she was the heir to his legacy and the key to the future he designed.

Alas, his attention drifted elsewhere. Caught unawares as the silent speech of the Sword saturated his thoughts from the empyrean wind. His eyes widened, orbs of incalculable wrath glistening in the shadow of Cinnagar.


"…The Sword of the Jedi."

The Sith'ari cooed.

"You should of remained in exile."

The Dark Lord of the Sith stretched forth, hand reaching out across the expanse, his mind probing the depths of battlefield. He uttered a savage hiss before muttering in the 'Old Tongue' an unrecognizable command.

The earth shook, the skies thundered, and throughout the city streets a monstrosity glided overhead. The Summa-Verminoth groaned violently as it made haste in the direction of the valiant Sword. Earth and Heaven moved before the apex predator as it turned towers into turmoil.

The Beast lumbered on, carried by it's master's command to seek fresh meat.

He stood there, so disconnected from the core of the situation as the former master and student made their remarks to one another. He was the extra, the added addition, the one that came after, the one to find himself cast aside should Jem be returned to his side. His features scrunched and narrowed, from the creases on his forehead to the clench of his teeth. Corin was tense, and it remained so difficult to discern whether it was the nerves of a true test of skill or the fire that storm that near-thundered beneath the surface.

Corin returned a similar narrowed look back towards his Master, he readied himself to follow one command and still remained so unsure of the other. Had their success as two ensured his own loss as one? He wished he had all the chance to dimiss all the intrusive ideas that flashed before him, but there was no time but the here and now.

His weakened resolve had turned him into a moldable mass of flesh and bone.

In a silent rush of his own, Trenor mimicked Kaze as the blue blade hissed into existence. Beside the other Jedi, Corin bounced into the air and made the motion of an overhead attack, as if in effort to rid the fresh Sith of her arm.


He had finally hardened his heart to her. No more begging. No words. He had finally accepted the inevitable. She should be relieved, but his resignation burned like salt on a wound.

There really was no going back now. Her face hardened as he descended, her own saber jumping to her hand in turn.

She caught both the blades with a powerful upward strike-- forcing Dagon's up and entangling them both with the third before it could reach her shoulder.

"You're really going to make us do this?" She accused. "All the energy I've put into keeping you alive, and you're going to make me kill you." They remained locked for a moment in a power struggle, the tip of her dead jedi saber pointed at the ground. Darkness flexed through her muscles and she did not budge, her control over it balancing on a pin point.

"Do you have any idea what you're doing to me?" Her pain was palpable. She wanted nothing more than to pretend she had never sat on that corrupting throne, but her father pushed her further every day and her master...

Her attention fixated on the jedi fighting besides him. She had dismissed Corin Trenor Corin Trenor and his tangle of black hair as a cousin or even brother of Dagon's, but it struck her then that didn't make sense. The jedi-- the boy-- was her own age. She was Dagon's only connection.

Her resistance slackened with shock.

"Who is this?"

Dagon Kaze Dagon Kaze Corin Trenor Corin Trenor Darth Solipsis Darth Solipsis

"You can try." he retorted as the two Jedi's blades locked a cross with Jem's parry. "If you can't step back into the Light -- I'll drag you back." he could feel his flesh squeeze his hilt tighter and tighter against Jem's newfound strength.



An eyebrow slightly arched up, "Wh--"



That was for Corin to respond. Feeling the resistance of her parry begin to falter, Dagon stepped back and to the side seeking to flank her followed by a horizontal slash of his blade across her arm. Had Jem been the one on his side, he'd known she would've followed to flank their enemy on the opposite side. Just like they had trained. Just like in the good old days.

Oh, this divine irony of it all.

He was no Jem.

Far from it.

But now, of all times, he resembled her current state most of all. Even as the Master of the three shifted out, a clear chance for himself to do the same, Corin elected to remain and in an effort to hold her there, to be better than her. It was all he wished for now, he was unable to ever confess otherwise, least of all as he leaned further into his own blue-bladed saber and his features contorted in order to be more tense than ever before.

"I'm Corin," he mustered between all the exertion, "Your replacement."

"You never trusted me."

Her whole body quivered with emotion. Up until this point she hadn't actually raised a hand against them but she struggled to remember why that was. She was no longer a lake, she was a raging storm threatening to explode. What that the darkside or what that her pain? It was impossible to fuss out and she wasn't trying to. The betrayal took her breath away.

It took everything away.

Jem fell into a pool of darkness. In its cool embrace nothing mattered, not even her own agony as the light inside of her snuffed out. "No," she decreed, taking a step towards them. Darkness billowed off of her, bending the force around her and dragging it in. Like a black hole.

"You're not allowed him. You don't deserve him." She crept towards them, her path unclear as she forced her way deeper onto the roof. "You will never have a padawan again."

She charged, not on him but on the boy that had taken her place. An abrupt overhead leap would put Corin between them-- affording him no easy protection from Dagon as she slashed for his neck.

An attempted kill shot.

Equipment: The Dark Sacraments, Apostle's Vestments

The Wave of Energy hit him and regardless of whether or not it was negligible Kol, raising his arms would cross them in front of him in what appeared to be a sort of defensive posture. When he was struck by the ambient energy he would skid backwards, away from where he'd stood but unlike the shockwave that had hit him previously the damage, if there was any seemed inconsequential and he never lost his footing. As he came to a halt several meters away from where he had stood he'd have only swept his hands downwards.

The Skyscraping Spire was still falling, further down from the penthouse level where they both were pieces of the spire were breaking apart thanks to the storm of lightning and energy that Caltin Vanagor Caltin Vanagor had summoned.

Chunks of duracrete, steel and other building materials would rain down across the streets of Cinnagar and the Royal Palace.

When Kol's right hand swept down past the outside of his hip the 'Dark Sacrament' clipped to his attire almost innately found its way into his hand. Even now, retrieving that from his [person as the building fell the angles were starting to change. Horizontal was becoming vertical as the skyscraper toppled. Kol had positioned himself with a window at his back. He never answered Vanagor.

He'd outstretch his right arm, snapping it forward in a fluent motion that saw the lightsaber he'd taken ignite in a dark mulberry color as it left his grasp while flying in an arc at Vanagor guided by a degree of finesse coupled with minor telekinesis. In the same instant the Dark Apostle leapt but rather than being carried forward, towards Vanagor he used his own control of the force to carry himself backwards away from the Jedi in opposition to the angle at which the spire was falling.

The Dark Apostle would burst backwards, through the window port he'd identified in a shower of shards that came with him. A Telekinetic grip would encompass him, he wasn't going to fly but he'd begin to float downwards behind the toppling skyscraper like he was gliding. Navigating around potential lightning strikes that came to further damage the falling building, his right hand still outstretched so that he could summon his lightsaber back to him regardless of the outcome of the attack.

Aside from the obvious escape it afforded him from the falling Spire the vantage point Kol took advantage from would grant him an almost ideal view of the ensuing mayhem....​
 

There was a solace in the fray. In her motions existed no question nor thought; the mirialan was driven by an innate instinct and a righteousness for her cause. She had been made and shaped to fight the evil which plagued them. Her blade flashed sideways, drawn to shield Rhis's back from an approaching challenger. Auriferous parried his blow, Xashe's leg following to send the heathen sailing back.

“You are doing great,” giving encouragement and morale to his student. “Don’t let down,”

The words reached through the bloodlust, sending a cocky grin across the mirialan's face.

"I did learn from the best," She shouted back, a grunt of combat interrupting any further retort.

The pair became deadlocked, trapped by a descending horde. No matter how many the well-oiled machine pushed back, there were more to take up the mantle. In madness and in fury, Xashe pushed back, embracing the odds stacked against them. Spirit and zeal sent her saber forth with deadly passion.

Vile corruption became evident in the force, withering the leaves of Ashla's tree as the rot crept nearer. Its fury and hate assaulted the padawan's empathetic senses. With a challenging gaze, Xashe's eyes scanned the area, looking for it's a source.

"We got company, Rhis. Sith."

She was always frightened by fire; perhaps by the way it danced, how it flickered wildly, ready to leapt out from the candle that held it and lunge for an unsuspecting throat... perhaps it was what terrible power a single flame held inside of it. So much rage, so much destruction in one... beautiful flame. Liedran used to reel back in fear whenever her father lit a torch, or something simple as a match. He'd said it was a way of honoring her ancient family history, a way of humbling oneself for the spirits of old.

She never saw that. Not even now. Not as fires flickered in the darkness of her eyes, those distant sights of destruction painted in the viewscreen.

The admiral watched her vanguard dance like flames themselves. The six Sacheen frigates fired off bursts from their maneuvering jets, swerving through a thick wall of Brotherhood starfighters as their pulse cannons and rapid missile volleys turned all manner of surrounding shapes to blazing debris. They wobbled slightly, at times, rocked back and forth by oncoming strikes to their fading shields-- some more faded than others. She noticed Sonata had taken up the brunt of the strike, her own shielding plummeting to near ten percent strength in less than two minutes, despite the amount of casualties her blazing guns had succeeding in inflicting.

They couldn't hold out forever. And if nothing was done, the six frigates would fizzle out like flames. But what was there to do? The Sacheens' point defense screens had turned any surrounding space into a hell for starfighter pilots. She had Dauntless and Andromeda both now under fire by a trio of lumbering battlecarriers and a whole fleet of dashing Mawite vessels, vessels which Lightmaker, Cadence, and Providence were still struggling to turn away.

That left
Rhapsody
, still limping from the Brotherhood's initial volley, but currently unengaged by the latter's forces. "Have Rhapsody proceed forward to back up our Sacheens. Immediately. And see if the frigates can pull back toward our own firing arcs." It took all her strength to keep her tone as level as she did, and Liedran still couldn't help but stutter a little. She drew a heavy breath shortly following the last word, letting her eyes flicker shut, letting her muscles tense and relax again.

"Rear Admiral. I'm getting contacts-- They're friendlies! Admiral Myneto and General Pryce respectively!" The comms officer gave a little pause, watching as Liedran's tired and worn eyes turned to lock with his. The young ensign gulped, some of the relief fading from his face. "...The General just opened a line, ma'am."

Liedran picked up the comm-link at her side, nodding slightly to the junior officer. In moments, the familiar crackling of an opening line caused her ears to perk up. "This is Rear Admiral Kathause."


"Rear-Admiral. You've come up in the world?
She didn't answer Pryce's opening remark, waiting for the general to continue.
Tell me how we're doing."

"Not good." The admiral's eyes darted back to her display board, the comm link still pressed to her ear. "I could use some help on my starboard flank, General. Be mindful of my frigates' point defense screens. My tactical officer will upload a full summary shortly." Slowly, she nodded to the comms officer, and heard the click as the line to her receiver was severed. There wasn't time to get friendly. Maybe if she survived... Liedran laughed gently to herself, the faintest shapes of tears forming in the base of her eyes. Maybe this was where it ended... the seemingly unending cycle of pain and misery and... Her eyes darted back to the viewscreen- then to her aide as a shout rang out from the other side end of the bridge.

"Admiral! That fleet off of starboard is on a collision course!" Eyes darted to a secondary viewscreen, where a flotilla of monstrous silhouettes drew nearer and nearer! They'd closed the distance in a matter of minutes, fueled by the power of their SLAM drives and by the angers of their misshapen crews.

"Evasive maneuvers. NOW!" But it would be too late, at least for Lightmaker, the poor, sluggish carrier. So Liedran shouted the only thing she still could, "BRACE-!"

Akûz the Ravager Akûz the Ravager 's Caragol slammed at full speed into the flagship's shields, its own energy barrier colliding, detonating into nothingless. In moments, both the shields of the Lightmaker and her Mawite counterpart burst into their individual atoms, and the hulls of the two ships made contact. Armor plating crumbled under the weight of a million-ton hammer as metal split metal and conduits shattered, venting electricity into the corridors of the Alliance flagship. Unlucky crewmen who'd been darting by on repair runs were instantly splattered against the terrifying prow of the Caragol. On the bridge, officers buckled into their seats in vain, only to be sent flying across the room, directly into exposed electrical paneling, loose debris, or the walls. Fire belched from a panel just across the bridge. Momentum imparted by the Cargaol's impact
sent shrapnel suddenly flying from its housing, darting into a bullet-like course.

In one moment, Liedran's hand had become a bloodied mess of tissue. In the next, she'd hit the ground, screaming in shock and agony with the rest of her staff.


As solid supporting pylons were dislodged across the Lightmaker and sent spearing through decks upon decks, similar displays erupted into being beyond its hull. Brotherhood vessels slammed into the rest of the 74th-- Rhapsody, Cadence, Providence, Novella! Dauntless fired her thrust vents in conjunction with her helmsman's quick wit, darting suddenly above a passing Vagabond frigate, but not before the latter severed the ventral half of its distinctive scythe. The two star destroyers, Cadence and Providence, were sent tumbling out of alignment, their thrust vents still firing to compensate. Andromeda swung about last-second, in seconds locked in a furious broadside exchange with a passing Mawite vessel, explosions bursting all across its frame. And... Novella. Already crippled by the detonations of her own magazines, the heavy cruiser split straight in half upon impact, fire and debris belching out from its exposed corridors before- the reactor ignited and engulfed both Novella and the vessel that had rammed it.

The lighter and nimbler frigates, the Sacheens and the FarStars, had been spared, leaping suddenly from the paths of their respective Mawite dueling partners, turbolaser fire cutting across the disrupted space around them. They still weren't safe. Fighter Group Aurek still loomed over, taking advantage of the panicked frigates' broken firing arcs to send fires rippling across their shields.

The chaos on a crackling viewscreen flashed again and again into a dim-lit bridge, multicolored light leaping over the heads of the unconcious, the injured, the dead. Groans and whimpers echoed faintly in the room, muted by the furious cackling of the Maw.


-(Not mentioned in post) Starfighters sent to harass Marlon Sularen Marlon Sularen 's vanguard are made to return to the 74th Flotilla, absorbing numerous casualties on their way

Ryv

Become One With All Things

"You should have remained in exile."

Ryv smiled. "Boy, if that isn't true," he paced to his right, his attention moving from the behemoth to a distant blip in the sky. The tiny dot drew closer with meteoric speed. Behind the starfighter trailed a streak of black smoke, left in the wake of a battered engine with only seconds left. As it drew closer, the Jedi Master noticed the cockpit crack open. Glass shattered as the durasteel hinges tore away and blew out into the sky behind it. The pilot launched out into the open air a split-second later. Within seconds Ryv lost sight of the unlucky soul left drifting down to the world.

They weren't his focus anyway.

The burning starfighter went up in a fiery explosion. Shrapnel blew out in all directions, carried out with the force of a tiny explosion. Most of it went a hundred different ways that Ryv couldn't begin to track. None of those mattered, either. His gaze followed the one piece that did. A large chunk of wing embedded a dozen feet behind him, buried halfway in the duracrete and durasteel roof.

"Perfect timing," the Jedi Master smiled as he stepped down from his perch. He sauntered over to the wing, waving his hand nonchalantly to the side. The blackened wing vibrated in place until the kiffar could free it from the roof and adequately lift it up for study. "A good size," he muttered. "I just need..." Ryv trailed off as he unclipped the saber from his side and activated it with a flick of his thumb. He swept the blade out once, slicing away a portion of jagged metal formed in the explosion. Cerulean light cascaded onto the grime-covered roof alongside a spray of sunburst-colored sparks.

"Much better," Ryv deactivated the blade and returned it to his belt. He turned on his heel and paced back to the ledge, where he stepped up and locked his gaze back on that of the titanic monster's one, monstrous eyeball.

"How does that old saying go?" Ryv asked aloud. One hand fell to rest at his hip while the other slowly rose, fingers reaching out to the fiery sky overhead. "The bigger they are..." his arm shifted back, like the kiffar intended on throwing a ball, or more aptly, a spear, and he thrust his hand forward to the sound of a snap from his shirt sleeve against taut muscle.

What was the starfighter wing blurred forward at speeds impossible to decipher with the naked eye. Ryv didn't bother to try. His gaze returned to the charging giant as it stomped closer. The earth shook with each mighty step. Glass shattered from nearby buildings, and fear wafted up from the city's defenders with an acrid stench all its own.

War came for them all in the shape of one horrendous aberration.

Then it stopped moving.

Ryv cracked a broad, toothy grin. He figured it had something to do with the homemade spear delivered directly into the creature's brain.

"The harder they fall."

The world shook as the creature collapsed into its death throes.

Kai stared incredulously at the cybernetic cannibal girl. She had dropped her weapons and was asking to fight him barehanded, with one hand behind her back so it would be even. He thought it might be an attempt at mockery, but it didn't work. Mainly because his severed arm was already beginning to grow back.

Sighing and shaking his head, he reached out with the Force, seized hold of her body, and attempted to propel her forward, his lightsaber ready to behead her once she was within range.

” One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn't do.[”- Henry Ford

There is no emotion, there is peace…

The falling spire would instill a sense of terror in even the coldest of souls. This was only natural, to feel the impending doom of seeing the ground grow ever larger as it screams ever close to you. Caltin Vanagor, for all of his strength, all of his abilities, and his experience under fire could feel the familiar blood-chilling spike in his system. Kol knew what he was doing, this was an intuitive move on his part, especially positioning himself in front of a window, it was a rattling reminder that their time was becoming exponentially shorter by the moment.

He could either derail or do what he normally does… go to work.

That decision was made for him though as the big man found the Dark Sacraments intent on turning his upper torso into a mess of exposed muscle and blood. Where the big man once took to a highly predatory stance toward his foes, but now it was an almost lackadaisical defensive posture. This was not to say that the massive Jedi Master was not invested in the fight, quite the contrary. The big man projected a needle-like focus towards the man who would love nothing more to be credited for bringing one more ally to the Dark Side or to destroy a powerful Jedi.

What Vanagor had done was call “Conservator” to his hands, the massive Jedi Master preferred a two-handed grip with the blade angled over his head. While he could merely sidestep the attacking weapon and allow it to swing by him, that would be the stuff of legend and would be something ridiculous. Caltin was not a god or some invincible force that looked down on everyone else, he was a man who had seen more than his lion's share of fighting though. He still was open-minded and continued to learn new and better styles, adapting them to his own.

Back to the swipe at the floating lightsaber, the massive Jedi Master waited for the last possible moment to bring the Sovereign Blue Gold (A combination of the Permafrost and Heart of the Guardian crystals encased in the hilt) down onto the mulberry blade in a sort of “half-moon” Soresu style defensive arc. The effect of this would not stop the Dark Sacraments from returning to their master’s hand but the trip would take longer than designed. The move made by the massive Jedi Master would redirect the lightsaber’s arc to the point where it would fly wide of Kol’s hand only to ricochet off a wall and back into the reach of the Dark Jedi Master.

This would buy Caltin time.

His own eyes would watch as Kol would somehow redirect his own leap forward into a complete volte-face ending in front of the window (no doubt meant to remind the big man of his impending doom). This would be a mistake for the Master of the Dark Arts as now, he was not able to push through the Force in the manner which he used to, nor use the Force wave in this case, again, not like he used to. There was however something that the big man had always wanted to do. Planting his back foot, the big man charged at the Dark Apostle with violence on his mind, to tackle Kol through the window regardless of the debris that would go with it and slam into the planet’s surface…

… but he did not.

Stopping just short at the last moment, the massive Jedi Master let the energy build in him and shoot out of his arm directed squarely at Kol’s chin before backing some steps, lightsaber down at his side. If the energy slammed into him, great, if not it would engulf a Mawite fighter.

Run or stay your choice.

<"Does that hurt, I bet it does."> Superious taunted, snidely, not at all concerned for Kyell.

It was hurting the Jedi, good at least it was going as well as it was. Still, there is an air of calmness in the air, even with the barrage of Lightning, the Jedi remains firm and defiant even while in pain. A fighting spirit that remains strong. Superious can appreciate it in private, but right now the Ubese still need to get in a more favourable position that does not risk him being thrown off again, he was lucky not to get stuck under a Walker.

Luckily the Electrical barrage was doing damage and the air was heavy with static and ozone. He could feel his hair fluff and crackle with the sheer static. However, there is the pinch of the force that suddenly breaks through his burning Aura, the tug of Force Pull, centred around his knees, the jiggle of the joint as the Force closed around it and then he lost focus to concentrate on not being toppled, in doing so the Lightning ceased.

Barely keeping balance Superious had to change stance and position to avoid being upended onto his derriere in an embarrassing display of being made a fool of. His ego will not stand for it. This gave Kyell respite at least. But then the attack form changed and the Ubese was ready to go on the offensive with his blade in attack position, he was going to attack once more, blade to blade and why the two sides fought so much in the first place.

Full no barred Lightsaber duels of old, the ones he studied in his youth. Without further hesitation, he pushed forward with another direct attack, all tiptoeing all but cast aside in favour of full and true combat.

  • She still can't find any working terminals.
  • She's getting worse.
  • Mercy finally made it to the stairwell, where something called her.

Go ahead! No matter how hard it is, how much it hurts. With each step, I felt it more and more trying to break my defences. I couldn’t be weak, I had to stay strong. I still had to lean against the wall to move on, otherwise I couldn’t stand on my feet. I passed a few wards, I saw the patients inside, tethered and half-stunned, possibly trapped inside their minds. The situation was infinitely familiar with what the Taskmaster had done to Ziare before. When I woke up due to his tortures.

Although these were apparently better conditions than I was, no, we were. But it wasn't him now, it was not my mentor. I stopped in front of one of the doors, leaning my head against the glass wall and watching those inside sleep. No guards came, no droids. From a distance, I heard the sound of fighting getting louder and louder. Maybe that's why no one was here anymore. However, to my greatest regret, I have not seen any terminals in this place. Feth!

I looked at my own reflection; the place of the blow was visible at my nose, I will not be able to make it disappear, nor will the injury where my upper lip cracked. It will hurt a lot tomorrow, and so will my nose. Luckily, I don’t really have to kiss Mongrel in reality. Ironically, it was more comfortable, I mean the mentally relationship. I don’t know if we would be here at all if this connection and everything didn’t just exist in our minds. Another stab in my mind. Another snarl. I will kill you, whoever and whatever you are!

I looked through my own reflection into the ward. It never occurred to me for a moment that I should save them or kill them by grace or mercy. Not the slightest empathy appeared. Good! From this I knew my shields were really working; there was no empathy in me from Keilara or Ziare. I just didn't care about them. I was completely indifferent to them. I don’t care if they live or die. So I turned around and went on.

Maybe only the Avatars know how long I walked down the hallways, passing more wards. No one was here except the patients. I found some dead scientists and guards, apparently they committed suicide. I was getting worse, there was no sign of terminals yet. I finally managed to get to the innermost staircase, there was a big hall here. But all computers and terminals were destroyed. Great!

From the pain that hit my mind for it again, I fell to my knees again. I was doing my best to protect Kallan and Mongrel, not myself. And then I heard the creature's voice again.

~ Cooomeeee toooo meeeee…. ~ I heard the command again.

"Feth you!" I hissed. "Then let me go to you!" I hissed angrily.

The pressure and pain eased so much that even my vision began to clear. Now that my head just didn’t hurt so much, I heard my own panting. I coughed, I was still on my knees, my hands on the cold floor. As I looked at the ground, blood dripped to the floor. My nose was bleeding again. Feth! By the Avatars, I'll kill this!

~ Dooooown…. ~

Eventually I had a hard time getting up from the ground, my legs barely wanting to obey. I had a hard time reaching the stairwell. I smelled a rotting flesh smell as the door opened. I will vomit again… finally, leaning down on the railing, I started down. I would have sold my soul if there had been an elevator, but there was no…

"That isn't my name," Tempest hissed. She pulled away from the clash, but not for long. Only the Jedi Master mattered to her. What did she care if the Final Dawn took out this stupid senator. She attacked, her anger fueling every swing of her sabers. One after another they carved through the air. She felt Doxmite squeal in delight. Was this why her master had set her on this path? Had he known through some premonition in the Force that she needed to be here? That she needed to kill one of the Jedi's heroes? A smile twitched at her lips but she tamped it down, twisting the smile into another snarl.

"Run or stay your choice."

He'd already made his choice though. He'd made his choice the moment he'd thrown the lightsaber at Vanagor. When Kol had used his telekinetic control to help launch himself backwards after hurling the lightsaber his intention should have been well known. The turn of events was interesting though.

That he'd been leaping backwards, out of the viewport window and into the open air away from the collapsing skyscraper meant that the Dark Apostle likely had little to fear from being tackled and slammed into the planetside beneath the toppling building. Of course it didn't hurt that the Jedi Master hadn't followed through with that. Instead of a hard tackle the Dark Jedi was struck by a concentrated blast of energy from the Jedi.

The Blast would actually hit Kol in the chest when he attempted to dodge, he'd learn to late that his control was not quite as considerable in midair at that moment and was sent spiraling through the sky.

The Pain caused Kol to bite down on his bottom lip, the 'Apostles Vestments' did their part in mitigating some damage but the blast still left them damaged, shredded and smoking in some parts while his chest was reddened, bruised and battered. Nonetheless, they would begin the process of self repair.

As the Dark Apostle regained control in the skies, now hovering well above the skyscraper collapsing towards the Royal Palace he'd shake his head, reaching out for the debris and other shards of glass that had come with him when he'd withdrawn from the building alongside his forcible ejection. Using the force Kol gathered the different projectiles before sending them back towards Vanagor in a shower of glass meant to rip and tear at the Jedi Masters body.

The 'Dark Sacrament' he'd thrown would find its way back to Kol's hand finally as well, snapping comfortably into his right palm while the Dark Jedi observed the fall of the building....

"Safe travels, Master Jedi."

...at this distance Kol didn't imagine Caltin Vanagor Caltin Vanagor could hear him. It didn't matter. The Jedi Master would either escape the building like Kol had or endure the terrible collapse when it came to a sudden halt upon the conclusion of planetfall.

Narrowing his eyes he watched, he waited.

The Skyscraper made a deafening sound when it finally toppled completely, even with bits and pieces chipped away. Smoke would rise obscuring the vision of everyone in the streets, choking them and at low altitude ensuring that most Starfighters and Shuttles that could would bank to a higher elevation if they could. Debris, large and clunky would crash through portions of the Royal Palace, showering those fighting down below and inside of it.

It was the sound that was most evident though, a sound that would even drown out thunder momentarily.​

BELLUM CONTRA OMNES
[ Theme ]
e1RoOmw.png
WECMmgL.png

| Location | Empress Teta, The Iron Titan​
| Purpose | Objective I-A, Slaughter​
The battle had shifted into full swing as an all-out assault was being brought forth against the GADF and the local militia. The Dragoons of the 13th Umbral Legion flew through the air with the aid of jetpacks as they tossed thermal detonators at the hostile armored tanks below, explosions peppering the field as tanks below were assaulted. A dragoon landed on one of the tanks as he reached back and tossed a small spherical device in through the hatch. The crew of the tank would glance at the object that rolled inside before having a split second to look at one another as the IL-62G grenade went off, perforating the crew as a barrage of lasers fired from the grenade while the dragoon took off, the tank promptly detonating afterward after the crew had been killed.​
Death and despair filled the air as the armies collided with each other, their deaths being offered up to Bellum as tribute to the spirit of war, but through it all, the Lord of Eternal Conflict still hungered for more. A renewed bloodthirst had coursed through the dead Sith Lord's veins as he watched the Jedi that rode the tank he had just destroyed leap backwards to get away from him. The groan of shattered hull and screeching metal was heard as Bellum pulled the blade back, stepping forward onto the broken hull as a weak groan was heard from underneath, the pilot trapped and bleeding in the metal beneath him, eyeing the Jedi before him. The voice of the resurrected Sith spoke, a horrid cacophony of voices layered over one another that echoed in the mind,​
" I return from the nether that Irveric Tavlar sent me to, only to return to find that mere children come to face me... "
Darth Bellum deftly twirled the blade in his hand as he lifted it up in one hand before plunging it into the tank, piercing the hull as it summarily executed the trapped pilot beneath him, a final dying gasp heard as Fellsong feasted off the essence that it had been given. The towering figure began its slow advance forward, the hungering blade being dragged against the duracrete streets. There was an odd atmosphere that circled the Sith Lord, as if he was not alone, but instead accompanied by an unseen, almost equally ravenous presence. As Darth Bellum approached, he spoke further, before halting and holding his sword out to the side as an invitation to attack.​
" Your city burns, your people perish, and your mind is already in chaos little one. I expected a Jedi to better control their emotions. Like the rest of your pathetic order, weak and undisciplined. I expected better... Perhaps you will die screaming for mercy, with the thought of loved ones being the last thing to ever grace your mind...
... or perhaps you shall entertain me and die as a warrior that has earned my respect, and give me essence worth feasting on. "​
Darth Bellum's form seemed to billow in the wind, the cloak of shadows that clung to him flickering like hungering flames licking and awaiting its next meal before he dragged the tip of the blade along a wide arc against the ground, outlining a half-circle against the duracrete to mark the area and range in which death would most assuredly come as the Sith spoke one final remark before their duel was to commence.​
" Do not disappoint me... "

Disgust painted the master's features as the dark sider spoke. Some primal part of her instantaneously labeled him as unnatural. His very presence tilted the balance of the force around them, the malignant aura corrupting.

"Kill her. Keep the body intact if possible."

At the command, Henna's eyes drifted shut, serenity wiping the earlier slate clean. The image came easily. A graphite boulder rested in the midst of chaotic waters, sparkling under the sunlight. The roar of the river grew until it was almost deafening. Each tug and pull of the waves threatened to move the rock, yet it stood firm in its resolve.

When the amber orbs flitted open once more, they immediately fell to the encroaching enemy. A flash of gold swept to the ground before arcing upward. The saber met the low strikes head-on, locking both lances in place. The tension of the trio limited her movement severely. What would have been an agile bob was clumsy, though she still managed to dodge one saber strike. The other slashed at her ribs, it's lethality neutralized, though the sting of the strike caused a cry of pain to burst from her chest.

The rush of adrenaline-fueled her muscles, the newfound strength allowing her to push upwards from the deadlock. The repose broke at it's climax. Henna seized the opening, her blade striking with deadly speed. Her other hand rose, Ashla's light throwing through it with the force of a cleansing explosion, aimed to toss another attacker aside.

Music

For all of Kyrels fetid, gross and rotten appearance, an appearance held together by stitches and pure hatred, the Ren sure moved fast for a walking corpse. And Rika found out the hard way, Kyrels hand curling into a fist, connecting with the woman's jaw, and sending her on her back. If she hadn't flinched in time, she'd have been knocked out and fast a meal for Kyrel's cohorts. Instead, she hit the cold marble floor with a thud and yelp of pain, blood dripping from her lips as she spat a glob of blood on the floor and backed up to where the bundle of grenades lay meters away.

Her options were few and far between, the blaster she had had was too far away and the only thing close to her was that grenade bundle. If she stayed and fought Kyrel head-on, she'd die faster than the rest who had tried to stop him. And if she tried to grab the blaster, she'd only have eight shots to make count before Kyrel closed in again. But luckily for her, Kyrel seemed more interested in toying with his food and breaking her down punch by punch, so she used that slim opportunity to bolt for the grenade bundle and swooped it up in her hands.


"Motherf*cker.."

Rika turned to face him and the rest of his men who seeing the grenades, quickly rushed in front of their lord to shield him as she pulled the pins and bolted for the corridor as she threw the bundle in Kyrels direction. To buy herself some kind of time and distance, to rethink her next moments and recuperate before attacking Kyrel again. The explosion ricocheted through the corridor she was in; she bolted just in time to take cover behind a pillar as dust, shrapnel, and the body parts of Kyrels men flew past her, painting the marble in a dull shade of brown and red. She did not know how much time it gave her, she did not know, her eyes frantically darting around for some kind of weapon or plan to ambush the monster.

The dust caked everything and obscured her vision as the cloud sifted through the corridor; Rika looked down and found a pipe on the floor; kneeling, she picked it up and felt its heavy weight in her hands. If Ren didn't feel her coming, he'd not see her in the dust cloud. Giving her an opportunity to bash his brains in and send him back to the land of the dead for good.

For Atrisia.

THE LIVING ARTEFACT: A WOAD ON EMPRESS TETA - PART 6

Koros Quarter, Inner-City,
Cinnegar, Empress Teta (Early-875 ABY)


'Unlike anything I ever expected, far more intense than Durace ever could be.... One wrong move, an' there'd be nothing left for others to scavenge. But still - incredible.'

Small distractions aside, there was much and more to find themselves awestruck by, something all four members of Barran's small clique were quite willing to admit at that point, for never before had the four upstarts expected the Maw to be capable of posing Durace-tier threats of their own in planetary assaults of this magnitude. This was what they were wistfully imagining in their daydreams on watch-duty, this was exactly what all four members of the clique wanted, and more than anything by then, but the final word would need to come from the Mongrel if their efforts were to be permitted for such. No getting in the way, no hindrances of any sort would be permitted in any fighting force of such effective prowess, and certainly not whilst working their way through the same stomping-grounds of their cybernetic, fully-fledged superiors.

'Seein' as you're all ready to go.... Advance.'

With rapid, explosive aggression, heels dug in deep for their first ten paces or so, moving southwards in their own separate plotted directions in the hopes it could confuse the GA sharpshooters in the area. It wouldn't be easy, but with all the strengths and other attributes the small clique had at their disposal, every risk would be negated better than any of them could anticipate, especially in the process of putting old assumptions and perceptions to rest. Shots would be taken in their general directions, but running on such proving grounds with such quick agility aiding their sudden changes in direction, it wouldn't be long before the clique were all within shouting distance of their Warlord. First to arrive within the Mongrel's vicinity would be Ghoul, then Thomas would lead the main pack to follow close behind, but all would remain quiet to let their Warlord work in peace for a while - happy to watch the mayhem from a closer angle until Thomas finally stepped forth ahead of the others.

'Moment o' truth, lads. Let us see what our Warlord thinks of his new blade, shall we?'

'My lord!'


The first reaction to the Shriven One's presence would begin with cautionary cybernetic fingers sliding up against the triggers of their disruptor-rifles, but the following reaction to Barran's compliant, acquiescent demeanour would be far more relaxed than the initial precautions had been before. Thomas couldn't blame them, they were in a strange war, living even stranger lives; patience and humility would be needed to see them into a new era, though the thought that every last suchlike Scar Hound in existence would answer to him still felt undeserved at that point. For such was the mindset of the humble, loyal Woad, willing to serve as his lord's warrior until it was required that he take up the title of Warlord for himself, not knowing that this would be the very first Mawite succession of it's kind.

Many perished in the process of passing on the mantle, and often unwillingly at that, whether by forced abdication, duelling sabres or by murder in any and all it's dark, insidious forms; but for the Scar Hounds, this would not be so, not for as long as the Mongrel's devoted acolyte revered him in the way he was in that moment. The implications alone would bear great significance for the tribe's future, showing qualities of legitimacy in a faction that seemingly lacked the vocabulary to accept such circumstances as anything but nonsense, but the Shriven One was confident he could convince any higher Dark Lord that this would be the best thing for the Maw, as this would cement their collective status as the greatest of Darth Solipsis' stalwart warfighting contingents.

Exegol's vanguard, the tip of the Dark Lord's cleansing, purifying spear at the very heart of the existential Crucible itself, this was a dream shared between master and acolyte. A dream of completing the cycle, seeing it wipe the Galactic slate clean someday, a noble dream shared by many the Galaxy's many civilised denizens considered ignoble in stark contrast, one such that all the doubters still feared would still come to pass.

'My lord, your sword is ready!'

<"Nail, its alright.... Let him through. Our Warlord has been expecting him. Return to your post.">

'My thanks, just couldn't forewarn you either way.'

'Sorry about that, but Op-Sec breaches would've ruined my chance to deliver this sword to 'er rightful owner.... I'd be dumb to do so, eh?'
, Thomas muttered to Nail as the latter backpedalled away with a cursory, though understanding nod, returning to his perfectly-chosen sniping corner somewhere out on the eastern segment of the Mawite static-line. Leaving the fully-fledged Scar Hound alone whilst he resumed his approach towards his mentor, Thomas would then remove the strap that held the Mongrel's sword in place, opting then to hold it in both hands, presenting the pommel in a way that would invite the Warlord to draw it for appraisal. Then, after a few more paces towards his master, Barran knelt with head bowed and exclaimed,'My lord! With this blade, I present to you my greatest work in life! May it strike fear in the hearts of your enemies, may it cut a path through all who oppose you!', before lifting his head to await his mentor's response.

” It ain’t over, ‘til it’s over.[”- Yogi Berra

He ran.

No surprise really, Kol was never the type to stand and fight unless he had every advantage imaginable. Caltin did not fault him for this, not everyone liked a fight when it was straight up. Of course, that did not mean that the massive Jedi Master was not out of the proverbial woods just yet. The Dark Jedi Master was gliding away with remarkable ease. He could get out in time, but that would leave the husk of a spire collapsing potentially on thousands. This was unacceptable. It meant that he was stuck in there, but it was indeed his choice to do so.

His choice.

It was then that everything seemed to slow down, if he was using the Force, this would probably be “Farseeing” but it wasn’t. The building was disintegrating and it gave him an idea he would run with. He was no more than two hundred feet above the ground when the big man focused the energy inside him and when the wave of energy was at its peak it expended from his arms in a repulsive push that only shattered what was left of the viewport and surrounding support wall but the rapidly approaching ground now less than twenty feet away.

The ground was softened to a fine paste of dirt and concrete soft enough for the big man could crash into safely enough. The ensuing crash and destruction of the structure combined with the palace dropped the massive Jedi Master to his knees as the energy in his body shielded the big man from the crushing weight of twisted mass and metal coming down. It took a few moments but Vanagor did indeed survive the crash that should have killed him and yes, some did die, but the actions he took saved more than were lost.

It was a win.

Now, as the big man rose from the ashes like some mythical passerine, he scanned, there was mayhem in the streets as residents looked for survivors and other Jedi (as well as troops) defended as best they could. Caltin was looking for Kol, or Thio, he had a sense, hot through the Force, but a voice in his head telling him that the Jedi Maverick was in trouble. Either way, whether the big man found the Dark Apostle or not, Vanagor was making his way to the palace. The people of Cinnagar needed help.

This fight was not over.

She was going to kill him? Right, she was definitely a bad guy. Her whipblade launched at Just’s thigh faster than he thought he could react. It almost did.

“Ouch,” he said almost audible enough for his opponent to hear.

The blade did not manage to cut his leg off entirely, but it did graze his skin enough to produce a small amount of blood. Out of instinct Just used the force to create a barrier to protect himself. The electricity which powered the device seemed to serve well enough to cauterize the wound, but the young padawan was left in some degree of pain.

Just began to charge. In his mind all he could think was her weapon would be less dangerous to him if he could get closer. The whip portion of it was more effective from a distance. As much as he did not want to be up close and personal with a madwoman, it seemed this was where he would have to be.

“Can’t let you kill me either. Briana Sal-Soren Briana Sal-Soren would murder me if I came back dead.”

Was his response intentional, or was Just simply that awkward? That was for his opponent to decide. In the meantime his orange blade lunged directly for the woman’s heart. His ordeal with the Sithspawn taught him one thing, always aim to kill when your opposition wants you dead.​

Rising Up The High Rise
Civilians In Trouble
Child In Danger

Drakaes Kanarius was silent. So were his soldiers. What could be said in this situation beyond the occasional order or update, which itself was done in the traditional sign language of the Liberated Vigil? He and his soldiers had entered through the ground floor, climbed set after set of stairs, and came upon nothing but death and decay. Nothing but bodies strewn in gory messes or charred piles of skeletons.

For the faces that remained capable of identification, those not mutilated or reduced to fleshless grimaces, he wept internally. He knew them. Personally or in passing. Husbands and wives he once protected in the markets. Fathers and mothers and children he once escorted to villas and towers. Friends he once laughed alongside in days of peace and prosperity. Now, lifeless. Without dreams and hopes and memory. Silent and laughless. Corrupted by the invasion of this horde most foul. Dead for all time.

Thankfully, in some morbid way, it did not appear that a Jedi was amongst them. This meant their new mission had not failed yet. There was still a chance

His grip tightened on the handle of his rifle regardless, and he turned to his second. He too was equally troubled by the sights before them. Then he looked past his second and out the windows forming the wall of this floor. Outside, hell reigned supreme. Smoke prevented most visibility, and the only things that could really be made out were flaming wreckage falling from the sky, or the occasional glimpse of creatures beyond imagining, or endless gouts of flames and blaster fire. His lip curled in disgust at it, for Empress Teta had once been the gleaming star of the Galaxy. The hub for all things social. The center for everything.

Five more floors were ascended and cleared until, finally, something happened. On the eighty-ninth floor, which had once served as the home to a rather well-respected trading business of medicines and medical business shares, Drakaes Kanarius and his squad moved in a tight-knit formation with the intent to kill. Having seen the remnants of the previous floors, the general consensus that remained unspoken was that nothing was alive here aside from the Jedi who had called for help somewhere further up. Thus, all safeties had been switched off and any stun settings had been shut down. If there were any of these beasts inside this place, they would not survive.

Strangely, however, everything here had been untouched, at least by comparison. Most of the office rooms and cubical areas were empty but still possessed a kempt appearance. Stark white with black trims accentuated by green desk plants and various office accouterments, though the lights had - understandably - gone out like the rest of the building. It was upon seeing how well everything had been left that someone in the squad finally vocalized their opinion, expressing confusion as to how this place had been left so untouched. Another suggested that perhaps whatever had destroyed the previous eighty-eight floors had not reached this high up.

Before anyone could respond, there was a sharp metallic crash ahead that took their attention. Movement stopped and all souls waited for the orders of Kanarius. His posture was nervous and anticipating, for good reason. On his interface, six dots had pinged up. One hundred and twenty meters ahead through debris and choking fumes from the ventilation systems. Their sources, whatever they were, were hidden beyond a series of room dividers and crumpled ceilings, but they were there. Moving. Breathing. Alive.

Civilians? Best case scenario. Whatever had destroyed the previous floors? The most logical scenario. There were many more ways to reach this high up, and without destructive desires slowing them down, it was apt that the soldiers of Kanarius had managed to catch up with whatever had taken its time to slaughter.

With a quick flurry of motion, Kanarius ordered his men to adopt the Vee Formation, dividing up into three groups of four led by Kanarius, his second, and a selected corporal respectively. To the left and right portions of the floor - being primarily hallways passing through the occasional lounge area or kitchenette - fireteams one and two moved forward. Through the center, primarily being uniquely designed joint-manager rooms, Kanarius and his three moved forward. The ruling he had given his men was thus: if it looks abnormal or anything remotely in the realm of "Sithy," kill it.

Silence controlled them for several painfully slow minutes. Nothing was said, nothing was heard. No one even breathed. What would they find? Would it be the best-case scenario? Or would it just be more carnage in a world already drowning in it? Then, there was a scream and a host of shouting demands, and Kanarius rushed forward through the final door and smiled under his helmet.

Six people were huddled in the center of what looked to be a turbolift lobby, fearful of having a dozen rifles pointed at their heads. As the shouting died down, and the soldiers realized who it was they were threatening, Kanarius stepped forward. He was prepared to talk to them, ask them what had been going on in the building, or if they were in need of medical assistance. But once again, he could say nothing as the doors of the turbolift behind them were wrenched open to reveal the underside of the lift itself. And Kanarius's heart stopped from what he saw.

"Fuck you... and your games."
Laoth laughed as heartily as a cybernetic freak could, lowering himself further to sit back on his haunches and slightly relaxing his grip on the vibroblade. The kid still had heart, despite everything that had happened thus far. Heart and defiance. Naturally, these would only weaken the more he understood the truth in the Devaronian's words. No, Laoth was still not in the least bit worried about the outcome of this fight.

At least, not until he saw - through the bottom of the open turbolift doors - a group of soldiers and civilians staring at him and the boy. For a moment, Laoth did not know what to do. This was an admittedly unexpected variable in the entire affair. Had Black Steel and his men not killed everyone in the building? Had these soldiers somehow avoided death? Had they just arrived? Where did they come from in such short notice?

He sighed, disappointed with himself that he had not accounted for this possibility, and swiftly rose back up to his feet in one smooth extension of his legs none but a robotic monster could perform. There was only one way now that the boy could go. Anything else would give those soldiers time to react and gain some form of advantage to give Rhys. That could not be allowed.

Laoth lunged forward, swinging his blade up in a dazzling arc to knock the boy’s lightsaber away. Just as quickly, he threw his leg forward to kick the boy's own back and drop him to his stomach. Then, he backed away a few quick steps to the window of the lift. A cackle escaped him before he rapidly shifted his weight with another lunge and slid to his back to shunt his feet against the shoulders of the boy and shove him out of the lift.

As the boy fell to the floor of an apparent lobby, Laoth slithered out after him, landing on his feet and immediately moving to engage the soldiers.

IDENTITY CRISIS vol. III
Issue #4 w/ Dagon Kaze Dagon Kaze & Jem Fossk Jem Fossk

The Jedi Padawan -- the second student that seemed to be on a route to suffer a similar fate as the first -- had felt the onset of a fall. His stomach swirled, the sudden butterflies had risen into his chest and then his throat as those once determined features shifted into that of shock. In awe, Corin stared into the abyss beneath him whilst time slowed, the same stared lasted mere moments before it shifted towards the behemoth of a beast screeched. Had this been it, he had no time nor chance to entertain the idea, his arms flailed as if in a bid to see himself fly. It was as if he wished for one final look before he fell, Corin twirled on his toes to see no more than the hand of Dagon reach out and snatch his collar.

No time for so much as a look of relief, Corin was raised onto his own two feet and stumbled forwards into a roll once the Jedi pulled him forwards.

His brow furrowed at her words, overhead as he scrambled onto his feet and a sense of dread entered him. Corin had seen no more than her swift descent on him, the blue blade rose in a flash in an effort to meet her own as his stance was far from firm; the force of her fall had been all that she needed to knock him from his stance, even as the blades clashed and fizzled, and Corin fell onto his back. He made an effort to tuck and roll backwards, and his feet extended outwards as if to use that momentum and kick the Sith off of him as he further rolled back onto his feet.

He had no words, only laboured breaths.

  • She strikes back and she tries to get into close combat - within the distance of the blade.

It was pretty much exactly what Rhys had expected. She actually knew she wouldn't be lucky enough to be able to kill the man. It would have been too easy. Against a beginner, this idea and action would certainly have worked, but little against a Sith Lord. The red-haired woman preferred anyway if she didn't have to go into melee. Or if she can, she can do it with her fists. She wasn't particularly a fan of lightsaber combat or the Force combats.

For a very long time she didn't even know that Force Sensitive; even today, she used the Force more to help and protect her own comrades with it. It was perfectly enough for the woman, even though her husband was a pretty strong Sith Lord, not to mention her grandfather. As the man did after all the glass shattered and exploded, Ryhs instinctively jumped back and activated her personal shield. However, she remained unharmed, and whatever the man did had no effect on her yet. She raised her green eyes at Ptolemis, in which a flame of anger ignited.

If she needed to, she could still draw strength from her husband through the dyad. But it was also such that she neglected if it could be avoided. Similar was the Force using. But, if it could be solved, she wanted to solve the issue with physical force. Space wizards were much easier to defeat in melee than with Force. At least based on the woman's experience.

She swung forward again, trying to break through the man's defences with strong punches and stabs, to make him make a mistake. She noticed that the man had done the same, trying to defend those attacks, if necessary, she had moved a little further away so that she could attack from there again. Because Rhys was more of a melee fighter and a commando than a sorcerer, she sensed what the man wanted through his movements and actions. That is why she tried to end the fight as soon as possible. The red-haired woman wanted to get into melee, close combat - within the distance of the blade - so that she could hit the man's face with her armoured glove afterwards, or head-butted her opponent depending on the position she was in…
