Grauxius
Character
Coruscant, Sith Temple.
- Death to the failures. -
Screams emanated from within the temple, the cries of pain and anguish resonated throughout.
Death was present.
An aura of hatred was thick in the air, almost tangible.
The taste of metal and the scent of blood flavored the grotesque happenings within the temple, the taste of death.
The screams carried on, like the very souls of those being punished were crying for help.
There was no help to come.
The sin of failure was not to be forgiven, and the taste of cowardice satisfied the insatiable one.
A grin spread over a monster's teeth.
Flesh consumed, death abundant, its power grew.
The walls that witnessed murder were painted in the blood of failures. Light did not reach into where evil practiced judgement.
The faces of the murdered and eviscerated shown horrors indescribable.
Their eyes wide, their mouths frozen agape with the scream that would echo within this temple's halls for eternity.
Grauxius dealt the hand of fate.
He hungered for flesh.
The armored behemoth stepped out from the room he used to slay and butcher the failed Sith acolytes that did not live up to their trials. Grauxius felt no sorrow, no pity. His mind was zen for the time being, now that his hunger had been satisfied. In the darkness of the temple, the faintest lights of ceremonial torches illuminated the halls just enough to reveal blackened, soulless eyes. A bloodied mouth that had consumed the flesh and life of the unfortunate; expressionless and silent, the armor-clad Sithspawn carried his massive blade over to a shrine made to honor Sith ancestry.
Getting down to a knee and placing his sword before him, he gripped the hilt firmly and bowed his head; he had serviced and shown his worth to the Sith and his creator.
The silence of death was not to come, for the evil that thickened the air turned it to whispers for Grauxius. Whispers that confirmed his desired praise, the voices of many exclaiming that more must be slain and disposed of to further purify the Sith.
He stood up and sheathed his blade, heading back toward his chamber of judgement. From there he obtained his helmet, but before placing it upon his head, he observed his work to please himself and his master. The stench of freshly torn flesh was sweet, and his shark-like teeth shown once more in a sadistic grin. Fully suited in his armor, he exited the chamber and the temple itself and stood on the front steps.
His emotionless gaze stared upward at the stars through his visor. The galaxy would soon know his existence.
