First Reply Tomb Of Ashes

[Kahlil Noble]

"You don't seem to understand."

The Force around Kahlil trembled all at once. Weight. Gravity. There were no runes for this, because his power didn't need it. An overwhelming weight outright crushed the world around him. Benches flattened into the dirt, ruined speeders crushed into flat sheets. He held nothing back. But his focus wasn't even on the stranger before him. Instead, he focused on the hidden lab. The entrance crushed outright.

The explosion that was meant to wipe the lab out from within was muffled beneath the outright destruction his power unleashed.

"You're a threat. I couldn't be any calmer about dealing with threats."

The Sith would feel the surge of power and start to prepare for dissipating the energy as soon as it hit them in a smooth motion of his hands, leading the powers into the ground and shattering the surface even more around him, not even attempting to block or counter it, preserving his focusing powers.

Darth Titanus smiled, his eyes burning like magma.

"Most impressive. Raw power, it is a shame it is wasted in your fragile mentality."

The elderly looking man suddenly seemed very much lively and agile, energetic, his mental form outgrowing the body as he was channeling decades of emotions into pure energy, into pure Dark side. His powers were fuelled by not only his emotions of hate and fear, but by the misery of the place and location itself, by the people spread around in habitats and corners, hopeless, angry, despaired and afraid, it was empowering him, he fed of it. He loved it. And the outburst and emotions of the man did too.

Instead of showing off with blasts of telekinesis or lightning, he went right away to attack the mental shields of the man in front of him, a thorn of pure darkness, ice cold and burning like a star at the same time aimed to pierce the mental shielding of the man. It was meant to test the waters, yet powerful, seeing how much was needed to tear down any walls and shields.

"There's your real face."

Kahlil let out a heavy breath of relief. For a moment, he thought he was actually overreacting on a stranger. Perhaps they were just weird, perhaps he was about to kill a man who certainly didn't deserve it. Grant it, the man did destroy the elevator with no care on if someone was on board or not. But he got his answer as he stared at those sickly yellow eyes. A Sith, pure and simple. What was a glare shifted to a grin as Kahlil lifted his hand to trace another rune.

:: Sassshra, I'm giving you someone I need you to protect until I'm finished here. Take the Bastion somewhere safe. I'll call you when I'm done. :: The serpent mechanic of his ship would always take care of those he asked for. His grin dipped just a little as he felt something trying to pry into his mind. It was rare enough for him to even feel an attempt to puncture the unyielding defenses he naturally had.

The rune finished behind his barrier before he gently placed the boy within. Then in another brief flash as the rune itself activated, the boy was gone. The barrier around him faded shortly after as he instead reached up to trace a different shielding rune on his temple. The natural barrier he had suddenly thickened under it before he reached down to unclip his lightsaber from his waist.

"So, Sith. What's your real name? And how did you find my lab?"
