Taral stood on Iego. His homeplanet, and the planet of legends. He would always find it, it was easy for one who had lived eons on the surface to find his way home. Why he was here? Well he enjoyed the scenery, and singing with his species. His voice spilled out in a captivating melody, words were not needed to entrance a mortal when the very sounds of his voice with those of the other Maelibi sang with him. He enjoyed watching mortals fall prey to the Maelibi, watching them try to fight in fear as they were hypnotized and drawn closer and closer. In mid note, he felt a surge of darkness, a surge that he could trace to its source with ease, and Taral smiled. Stopping his singing, Taral turned to head to his ship. The amusement of watching mortals become food for the demons of Iego was no longer as interesting as the darkness he had felt emanating from Tash-Taral. He didn't know of the planet, never heard of it, nor been there, but he knew how to get there. Stepping into his Interceptor, Taral gave the coordinates to the pilot as he retired to his room.

Sitting cross legged in his room, a sparse abode with only a pallet on the floor for sleeping, Taral emptied himself into the Force. Trying to find where exactly he had felt this surge from the planet. He was unsuccessful, feeling numerous nexuses dotting the planet, all capable of being what he was searching for, but none matching what he felt. In anger at his failure, the demon of the Sith smashed his fist through a crystal floating at his side. A simple crystal it had been, one for helping the focus of the mind, but ancient as it had belonged to the woman who had carried him inside her, the woman who he had killed.

Landing on the planet, Taral threw a large black, hooded cloak over his shoulders, pulling the hood up to hide his face, and holding the cloak closed to hide his body, the Sith hunched to appear not as tall as he was as he stalked through the forest, until he found sentients. Finding the natives of the planet, Taral's mind pressed against one of them, causing agony as he ripped his way through the natural defenses of the mind, Holding no mercy nor pity for the victim of his onslaught, Taral pressed deeper and deeper into the man's mind. Pushing himself to what he sought as it shown bright in his mind's eye.
Finding the kernel of knowledge he sought, a feeling as much as a vision, Taral knew where he must head on the planet. Puling his blade free from his back, Taral held the blade as he approached the tomb, jagged pikes that had been sawed through littered the area, and Taral easily stepped over the rubble as he continued forward, ignoring the words that read "beware," or to "turn back."
