And a ticket to talk to her mother, so to speak. And this is why Ferus traveled to Hoth. One of the coldest planets in the galaxy, and a place he expected one called the Ice Princess to be. A new metropolis, the first actual city on the desolate planet, new, spiraling. Warm. A new habitat sphere had been created just for this purpose, to give warmer climates on otherwise unlivable planets. There was even a lake. Cutting edge new technology. Beautiful.
The Sith Lord came to this land dressed like many of the rest. Layers. Thick cloth wrapped around his form, with furs lined all through it. To the normal eye, he was just another civilian, a trader. He didn't even have a weapon on him, not that the Sith would need them. Ferus was here for a meet and greet, not an assassination. Though Ferus wasn't exactly expected. He was currently sitting in a bar, sipping at a glass of whiskey. For now he had to wait for a local informant to find the Princess. As a paparazzi he needed the best shot to get paid, or so he told Fridon, the informant.
Beautiful arches of ice and snow shone brilliantly from the beautiful sun shining light down upon Hoth. Amidst the beautiful witch-crafted sculptures danced a young and restless Princess Polaris, who had taken the time out of her free lance time to set a performance for the people of the icy planet. Her attire was nothing of a laughing matter. Skilled hands joined together to create an entire outfit for the very occasion. A long skirt dotted at it's lace with crystal pieces of ice, stockings matching a pair of boots which had a special blade attached to the bottom to make for a pair of ice skating footwear, and a long-sleeved dressed sparkling with various crystals and designs the locals had found to say in their own special characteristics, 'beautiful elegant dancer of snow'. A simple red flying scarf whipped about the icy blue outfit, completing it with a touch of home.
In circles, in the air! Polaris spun about and slid across the ice she had created with her spells, sometimes doing daring flips and one legged stunts. It was nearing the half hour now, and others were waiting to use the brand new ice rink she had created. She did a final turn and a twirl on the ice, before sliding off and walking to one of the many people who had helped make her outfit for today. With a small smile, she took the robe she was offered politely and wrapped it around her cold body. The rink was almost immediately filled with happy locals, especially children and their parents. One last face of happiness to the pairs, and she walked to the side to get onto her Tauntaun. She stroked his head once, then gently kicked it's sides to get it going. With a snort, it was off and racing the icy plains to make it back to the shelter.
As soon as they had entered the city, Polaris rode her creature to what she considered to be her rented home and helped it to stay in it's place near the backyards, full of toys and places for it to do it's own dances. She gave him another stroke on the head before heading to the local cafe. She was cold, though it was expected. She did just dance in the ice for nearly half a hour, and stood creating it even longer. Seating herself, she took out her holopad and began to message her holonet friends, while multi-tasking on the screen menu to order a hot tea with a side platter of biscuits. A long stressed relieved breath left her, creating a hint of fog at the table.
It was a nice day to be on Hoth, one of the most beautiful places in the galaxy. Her drink brought to her, she quickly gave thanks and cupped the container in her hands, blowing on the steam softly before taking a soft sip.
Hoth truely was a beautiful world at times but also harsh as Matsu had set her ship down near the old protectorate building. Constructed into the ice caves and left to be there before they had been working on it. Ropo breeding in the caves for all of the little children of the galaxy was a big thing when if came down to things. She could work with that while others who were talking about people on the planet came to her letting the jedi master head off with her tensho blade on her back just in case and her sabers. She had found despite being reversed blades no one noticed that... they just noticed she had swords that glowed. For what was needed now though she could work with the small bit of trickery that they played on themselves while she wrapped the force around herself feeling the sigil and circlet.
Warren Century was an individual of habit. As he was learning how to use the Force properly courtesy of a Sith he'd paid, Darth Erebos Warren knew he'd mainly be learning the techniques of the Dark Side of the Force. However he had no intention of using those techniques in ways that Sith normally did, to attempt to conquer the Galaxy. His main goal was to become able to survive with the Force as his ally because of how many dangerous Force Users there were. Entire Factions of Force users turned the galaxy into their personal battle ground, every day. An informant had told him that a Princess would be present on the planet Hoth. Dressed for the cold weather in a white ensemble that allowed him to blend in, camo gear for winter weather as it was, he intended on locating the Princess, and determining if he could bamboozle her out of credits, or save her life.
Either way, he'd be leaving this back water ice ball richer than before.
Ferus didn't even have to wait for his informant to arrive. Up on a nearby holoscreen the details of [member="Polaris Sovereign"] and her concert were clear as day. A brow raised on his masked face. Why couldn't his assassination targets be this simple to find? Without looking a gift horse in the mouth any longer however, the Sith Lord was up and moving. It wasn't hard to track the girl down after such a show, and soon enough he was in the same Cafe.
The sudden feeling of being a creeper filled the back of his mind however. Wasn't this technically stalking? Even if that's something he did for a living, not killing the person made this weird to him. Ah well, not much else he could do to fix that. Without anymore hesitation or thinking too much on it, he walked right up to her table and sat down across from her. Those blood red eyes of his glanced about as he did so, curious to see if anyone would stop him at this point. Bodyguards perhaps? He wasn't too sure.
"You're one of the Sovereign girls right?" He said, trying his damnedest to not be creepy, though probably failing. "I've been looking for one of you for a while now. I'm looking to chat with yer mum, and I figure you'd have a direct line to her. Am I correct?" These are all things he would say if he wasn't interupted. Big dude wearing a bunch of layers walking right up to a famous girl? Someone's probably gonna stop that.
It was a warm and comforting evening, here at the cafe. An exquisite line of drinks and small snacks. Through them all, Polaris found a nice soft tea to relate to the music. A sweet, warm brown drink with a topped spot of cream and chocolate shavings. Her eyes slowly spotted around her spot from the comfortable blue chair, and the metal table decorated neatly with icy decorations. Pictures of major events on Hoth lined the room - balls, weddings, and a lot of opening pictures of the cafe itself. It was good to know someone here was happy with their job, and had something to share with it. Another sip of her drink slowly passed away...
It was not very rare for someone who had a title in the galaxy to be approached now and then. Many people spent their times on their holopads, studying what they could from the bloggers on nearby or their very own planet. The young princess had her own - and again, visitors were expected now and again from here to there. At the presence of someone with similar attributes to these many guests - Polaris carefully put down her drink in the tiny plate provided to protect the table.
A polite smile filled her features. A request to speak to mother? That wasn't all she was honestly expecting. After taking another sip of her drink, she shook her head and folded her hands carefully about her holopad, turning it off the visual in the process of hitting a button at the top."I'm sorry to disappoint you, sir. I don't have direct contact to anyone in The Awoken at the time. If you'd like, I could direct you to someone who could transport you to one of their authority ships."
There were presences on the world, ones who were.... strange and one she knew was more dangerous before she drifted down crouching in her robes while she set one hand on the reverse blades. She moved staying concealed and focused on what was going on before letting some of the things play out. She knew how to speed herself and run then fly away to help the things. She sensed a woman there while she moved standing still before catching the presence of Polaris with a small nod of her head leading the way throughout some of the area. She wasn't certain what the plan was but she could enforce somethings to stop it or try to if need be.
Warren Century approached the area where the Princess was. For he was curious as to what kind of Princess she actually was. There were a coupe kinds of Princess. One was a Poser and the other was a real Princess. It would be interesting to see what kind of Princess she was, actually. Approaching Polaris, Warren looked at her. "So you must be the Princess of the Awoken, right?" Warren was wearing a trench coat that concealed a couple of blasters, specialized ones that he had made for himself. These involved light-saber crystals to color the blaster bolts and a few other custom modifications as well to ensure this worked properly.
Matsu felt the tension in the air and it seemed to becoming a dangerous situation as she moved quickly. The princess or whatever she was there with the one while she darted up into the air and arched down quickly landing at her side with a small gust of wind and letting her outfit billow around herself. Hair in the breeze created before she spun quickly to make and keep the speed going before she reached out to take her and jump away quickly flying up into the air scooping the arm under the thighs and arm over her shoulder. Her senses expanding out while she saw the other leaving a fox fire from ahri's technique the woman created with force flash to leave a bright rainbow. "That looked like a troubling situation." She didn't know who was there but was pushing with her attention on many of the things to protect the girl.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSXaRN4xeK4&ab_channel=Czerwek18 She was... surrounded. Truly, she was being cornered. For the first time in her life, she felt a need to protect herself from the dangers that lurked in the galaxy. Slowly she turned her head to the beings around her, placing her hand calmly on the table. She said nothing, but focused. Small crystallized figures appeared on the ground as her spell began to work and spread. Without another word, she got up, making a small dash to the exit as the cafe around her found itself brought a cold and uncomfortable depths of icy patterns in the room, slowly scaling up the walls and making the floor itself something difficult to walk on.
She needed help.
She needed a hero.
[member="Matsu Ike"]
[member="Darth Ferus"] [member="Warren Century"]
OOC: You will not be included in the role-play if you do not respond in the next few days. Apologies.
Matsu felt it and was looking as it looked like things were going to get a bit chilly before she was moving to be the hero with her reverse blades and attention on some of the things. She could handle plenty with it and she thankfully didn't look fully like a jedi unless they were used to a couple who used blades in the jar'kai... if anything she looked like an atrisian guard far from home. So worth it spotting someone running while she moved to clear a path and stay with her in her sights. No threat but clear she wasn't with the ones who had seemed to be around her chasing her. "Are you alright?"
Polaris' eyes felt wavy, felt confused as they twitched around. She slowly stopped to look at a young woman before her - and with it, a glimpse of hope. It wasn't the most polite or lady-like thing to do, running up to strangers for help, but the young Princess felt as if she didn't have a chance right now. She answered in an urgent tone. "People are cornering me. I need to get off of Hoth, as soon as possible."
Matsu took her in and a plea for help ws a plea for help. Her mind raced over what the best course of action was as she could either do the stay and fight everyone off to protect her which if there were to many meant the dangerous chance she could get distracted and they letting one slip past her. Or she could do the smart thing and get her out of the line of fire and danger. That was the better thing to do while she remained there and extended ut her arm. "Come on, we can get out of here and off Hoth if need be."
While fearing for her life and her history on this planet, Polaris felt more sadness than anything. She understood the being helping her in her rescue was doing so much as it was, making attempt to save a stranger's life, but her poor Tauntaun still remained in the backyard of her potential home. It was better not to think about it right now. She quickly took the extended arm in her own hold, ready to grab onto a jetpack for all it came to matter. "Hurry up!"
No jet pack was needed, the force was a powerful ally and Matsu gripped the girl closer to her form while she moved up into the air with a nod of her head. Looking at the other ones that were there. She brought the force around to encase them and lift them up into the air while she was flying and adjusting for the new weight. Just like flying with a heavy pack before looking around and tapping her locator for the ship. The ship could be brought here to pick her up before she kept her arm on the girl as she spoke using the force to buffer and not just blow cold wind into their faces. "So why are they after you?"
Oh, no! A Force user! That only brought her fear level even higher in the situation as they started to strangely fly through the air. She let out a soft sigh in the sight of being rescued so soon. "I'm in a powerful family, is all."
A poweful family could mean a lot of things and Matsu was moving with speed now that she had adjusted everything to help her. The attention to the landscape below as in the distance the Botany bay hovered as a massive square block of a ship that could be used while she looked at the girl. "Well when we get onto the ship we can contact your family. They might be worried about you with the ones chasing you." She wasn't certain and was approaching the ship with a look at all of it before she was leaving some of it opened to get in and protect them both. "I am Matsu Ike, what is your name? I can't call you damsel now can I."
