Until this moment the only landscape you had ever known was barren wasteland, even in the Academy. You had heard stories of course, of vibrant greens and blues, of vast bodies of water larger then the continents of the worlds that they lay bare upon but the sight of it still boggled your mind. You stay silent as you drink in the view of this new and strange world.

"Welcome to Dromund Kaas. Your new home, and the throne of the Empire. Everything you will become begins here. What do you think of it?"

>What do you say?

Awww Yeeaahhhh
Best Sith Time.
Also is it just me or does Alucard fit surprisingly well for how Xanth looks, other than him having shorter hair at the moment.

>>43774899
I can't help but agree anon.

>>43774899
Yes I'd say sol. Maybe a bit of a thicker beard plus some short hair and you'd have our MC.

I will admit I have hope that once Xanth becomes higher ranked and more powerful he'll have longer hair and look kind of like this.

That's not hard to shop. I could probably do it when I get home, if you find a good pic and a sample shade.

> You are leas to the front of the ship where Captain Kolbrun
>leas

Calling it right now, Brine is trying to kill us off so he can restart the Space-pirate thing without the waifu crap

>>43775079
Now that's a fundamentally flawed perception. The need to be free of something in the first place implies its persistent, trying to completely bar it is ineffective. You need somewhere to attract and then contain it. I love waifu stuff in moderation and think its pretty good here, but if he wanted a quest free of it getting rid of this quest would be the worst option as far as that goes.

"It's beautiful... and so strange. I've never seen a place so... alive."

Your voice is soft as your eyes focus on the world before you. Millions of lights dance across the planet where hubs of civilization can be found, the realization that billions of people live upon this orb within the void and you are struck with the impossibility of it all. Your mind wrestles with the idea but cannot completely wrap around it. Darth Incarnus chuckles softly as he watches you.

"Yes, come to think of it I imagine such a place must be strange to you. But remember, you are no longer just a man anymore. Upon this world and upon all worlds you are Sith. The aristocracy of the Empire. You will be treated with the respect deserved by someone of your station by the masses. However among the Sith you are still but a fledgling. I suggest you do what you can to observe when dealing with other Sith until you learn the ways of our society first hand. The first impressions you make will have a profound impact upon your career here. Whether you are seen as stern yet fair, soft, cruel, or a crazed madman is determined by you alone my Apprentice. So too will it reflect upon myself."

His gaze weighs upon you with a disturbing weight, his expectations rest upon your shoulders and your steel yourself beneath them with a quick nod. His gaze breaks from yours and he looks back down upon the world bellow.

"What kind of Sith do you want to be known as, my Apprentice?"

He asks plainly.

>What do you say?

>I want to be seen as stern but fair
>I want to be respected and feared

Hey Brine! It's nice to actually catch an SAQ thread. I was in the Space Pirate thread and liked your writing so started looking into this one and I just finished with the archived stuff the other day.

"I want to be a Sith who is spoken of only in hushed tones."

You say, your eyes regaining focus.

"That is true fear is it not? When even speaking your name too loudly is anathema upon those who do so. I can say with certainty that you have chosen the right path for that goal. If you perform well in time even the Dark Council themselves may fear you. But that will all come in time. For now we must introduce you to your new home. I will need to make a few communications before we land, you have the rest of the time before we land to yourself. Spend it as you will, but be ready to leave immediately when we land."

You nod curtly and Darth Incarnus turns sharply and departs. Your mind wanders momentarily thinking about the new world you will be introduced to once you land and you sigh wearily.

"Now now my Lord, no need for that. You seem like a natural and my Lord Darth Incarnus has spoken highly of you. Keep your chin up."

Captain Kolbrun says to you in a chipper tone.

>What do you do?

>"Do not speak with me so plainly. You may be my Master's body guard but you are still beneath me."
>"Thank you Captain... that helps a bit."
>Do some solo training, you want to be sharp so you can prove yourself worthy for the upcoming mission.

"Thank you Captain... that helps a bit."

You say, the shadow of a smile gracing your lips.

"Of course my Lord."

Captain Kolbrun replies with another polite smile before returning to his work.

You decide to find Taral, you haven't had a proper opportunity to speak or be around one another since your training with your Master began. You search a bit and find him curled upon a plush seat in one of the lounging rooms to be found in the ship. He yawns, his jowls parting and slapping back together with the signs of a satisfying rest. His eyes gaze up to you silently for a moment before he speaks to you.

"Has the Master of my Master finished your tutelage?"

He asks.

You nod silently in response and take a seat beside him, running one of your hands against his rough hide.

"Have you messaged Nivah yet? I imagine she's eager to hear from you."

You shake your head, once more silently. In truth you haven't had the time until just now, and your first thoughts were to find a place to rest after exerting yourself so thoroughly and speak to what is at least for the moment your only companion.

"You should before she starts to worry."

He responds as he adjusts and rests his head in your lap.

>What do you say?

>"What's the point of separating so she can learn to be independent if I message her the moment we've parted."
>"You're right, it will ease her anxiety to at least know I can contact her and that she can talk to me when she needs to."
>"I'll do it right now."
>"She'll be fine Taral, she needs to stand on her own for once."
>"I'll do it later, we're about to land and I don't need to have my communicator going off while I'm with my Master."

Jokes aside.
>"I'll do it right now."

>>43776320
If we can put our communicator on "mute" so it won't go off in front of our master:
>"You're right, it will ease her anxiety to at least know I can contact her and that she can talk to me when she needs to."

Mate, you either need to stop drinking, or start drinking a lot more.

>>43776541
There's a big difference between cutting her off and waiting a few more hours till we're settled in at least a little.

She's a big girl.

No, no she really isnt.
Thats kind of the point.

>>43776703
She's big enough to be able to wait another couple hours. It's really not a large difference in time.

>>43776615
I'd suggest either stop taking whatever it is you're taking or start taking again whatever it is you stopped taking.

>>43776689
She's still borderline Yandere. The messages to her serve as a lifeline should someone pushes her to the edge.

>>43776689
She isn't stable, we need to ease her into independence
It's the difference between a fanatically loyal ally and a broken psycho with a fixation on us

>>43776703
She might not be but making her go full cold turkey is never going to work. Afterall, I'm sure the master will be there to comfort her otherwise

"You're right, it will ease her anxiety to at least know I can contact her and that she can talk to me when she needs to... I'll do it right now."

You remove your hand from Taral and begin operating your communicator, taking out the small piece of paper with the information to her own devise. After some fiddling and finagling you figure out the interface well enough and begin to type out a message.

'Nivah,

I'm writing to you as we're preparing to land on Dromund Kaas after training with my Master. I know it hasn't been even a day since I last saw you, but I wanted to make sure to message you so you know how to reach me if you need to. I hope that your Master is treating you well, I'm not sure if you're heading to Dromund Kaas as well or to some distant world where you will learn the ways of the diplomat. Regardless you may always message me.'

You begin. You've never written a letter before however as part of your lessons on the society and conduct of the Sith you were taught basic structuring for such messages. You delete and reword several sentences to say what you want just right and as your prepare to finish the message you hear your Master's voice.

"Xanth, we are about to land, prepare to leave the ship."

He calls before striding off once more. You rush to finish the message.

'I apologize for the message being so short, but we're landing. I'll message you when I get a chance.'

You send the message as the ship begins to buckle and the landing stands meet the ground beneath you. Quickly you stand, motioning for Taral to follow you and you make your way to the docking bridge for the ship.

you know you can complain to the doc about the meds you're supposed to be taking. Meds targeting the brain are really touch and go and that's why there are a lot of different drugs treating the same problems. Hell some meds are really picky about how much you take.

>>43776903

Darth Incarnus motions for you to follow him wordlessly as he leaves the ship with Taral at your heels. You sense a shift in your Master, his shoulders roll back, his head raises into the air, and he seems to be on the verge of sneering at all times. Part of you wonders if this change is unconscious or intentional as a result of being in public.

Engineers and other employees of the space dock run about focused on their given tasks. Yet as Darth Incarnus approaches many of them stop in their tracks entirely while members of the military snap to attention and salute, allowing the two of you to move unmolested before continuing about their business. It's an alien feeling to you, at the Academy you were respected, but here your Master is revered, as are you by association.

The three of you make your way out from the loading dock into the proper of the space port and you are struck by the sheer numbers of people, aliens of all shapes, sizes, colors and temperaments swarm around the dock with a dull roar of conversation, yet even here you and your Master are given a wide berth. You follow your Master as he maneuvers the crowd with practiced ease and makes his way toward what appears to be the entrance of the massive building. In the distance you see a tall man with pallid skin clearly dressed as Sith. His gaze meets your Masters and he strides forward to meet you both.

"Master."

He says easily. He speaks softly yet there is a cutting edge to his voice that allows it to pierce the general buzz of the port.

"Lord Tavon. Good. Allow me to introduce you to your newest peer and my most recent apprentice. This is Xanth."

Your Master motions to you and nods.

Your eyes meet and you feel a tension build between you.

He's an apprentice like us, but he has seniority and is probably much more experienced, we shouldn't risk antagonizing him until we know we can deal with him, but we also don't want to seem subservient

"Pleasure to meet you."

You say with a nod.

Lord Tavon looks down at you like one might look down on an ant for another fraction of a second before his eyes shift back to Darth Incarnus without any motion or recognition of your addressing him.

"Shall I prepare the transport to Kaas City Master?"

Lord Tavon asks.

"Yes. Xanth and I shall wait for you at the entrance."

Darth Incarnus replies withe a brief nod of dismissal.

Lord Tavon bows and for a moment your gazes meet once more, and holds for another fraction of a moment. You feel a coldness creep up your spine, his gaze seeming empty and emotionless as he reads you. After another moment the gaze breaks and his long strides make it seems as if he is gliding through the crowd.

"He senses something within you. He wouldn't so much as look at Zyr'rha when first they met. Tread carefully with Lord Tavon Xanth, he is nothing if not brutally efficient."

>What do you do?

>Stay silent
>"He's... something alright."
>"What he has in efficiency he seems to lack in social skills."
>"In time he will be nothing but a stone along the road to me."

>>43777717
You aren't a Lord mate, it's just the way you are addressed by non-Sith. Kind of like how the son of an actual Lord is refereed to as 'My Lord' or 'm'lord' despite not having the title. It's more of a respectful way to address you then a notation of a title. Darth Incarnus is also refereed to as 'My Lord', it's just a Sith thing.

You remain silent as your gaze follows Lord Tavon and he is out of sight. Darth Incarnus chuckles softly before motioning for you to follow him. Your forms cut through the crowd and out to the entrance of the port in time and you are greeted with a bizarre sight. Thick and dominating jungle goes as far as the eye can see where so building or roads are stationed. Trees, more then you have ever seen or imagined in your life of all kind overpower the landscape threatening to reclaim the land that was stolen from them. Once more you lose focus as you try and grasp this strange new sight before you.

"You'll get used to it in time. In truth this is far from the strangest thing you'll ever see. I wonder how you'll fare should you ever be sent to Hoth."

You nod absently as your Master speaks half hearing him. You see motion in the distance, great six legged beast slips out of sight just as you register it's presence. Your gaze wanders for another moment before a large personal transport a sleek and intimidating machine approaches and one of it's doors opens. Within you see Lord Tavon sitting in the back with ample room for your Master and yourself to slide in. Your break your gaze with this new world and enter the machine soundlessly. Once settled your Master speaks.

"First we will take you to Kaas City where you will be shown your quarters and given time to familiarize yourself with your new home. After you will be taken to the Shadow Warden Headquarters and you will be properly outfitted and made to look as a proper Sith. I hardly expect my first apprentice to ever land a blow upon we in his first match to look the part."

You Master says.

In the corner of your eye you see Lord Tavon's eyes widen a fraction, almost unnoticeably.

"Yes Master."

You say calmly, suppressing the cruel smile that threatens to break out across your face.

The ride proceeds mostly in silence as you look out and investigate the plethora of new sights that await your gaze. In time you see it in the distance, a collection of tall and imposing metal structures the size of which overwhelm you. This is a metropolis, one of the largest ones in the galaxy and the weight of it's size presses down upon you even from this distance.

"This is your new home."

Darth Incarnus says calmly.

In time the towering colossal towers greet you with cold indifference as the transport enters the city. For a time you stare in silence, the sheer shock of the difference this new world brings you from the life you've known for so long send you reeling. In time you manage to break your gaze and stare at the ground of the transport while trying to process your surroundings. After a spell the transport lands as you continue to gaze into the ground beneath you. Taral looks to you from his spot wrapped around your legs.

"Are you alright Master?"

He asks.

>What do you say?

>"I'm fine."
>"It's... just different from what I know."
>"I've never seen something so huge..."
>Stand silently and exit the transport.

"I'm fine... it's just different from what I know."

You say.

Taral nods his muzzle and stands, allowing you to exit the transport with him following after. The air in this place is thick and heavy, filled with moisture from the nearby jungle, it feels strange in your lungs and seems to cling to your skin.

"Master, I'm afraid I must leave. My duties call for me."

Lord Tavon says in his quiet and nearly hollow voice.

"Indeed. We shall meet you at Headquarters."

Darth Incarnus replies, dismissing Lord Tavon who ducks back into the transport and is taken away by the faceless driver.

You look at the building in front of you for the first time and are confronted with it's immensity. It appears to be an apartment complex as your Master said, people, some of them apparently Sith, sit on balconies and chatter, smoke, and do the things people do oblivious to your presence. Your Master steps forward soundlessly and you follow into the building. After a long silence you are brought to the last door in the last hallway of the bottom floor which plainly reads '99' upon it. He produces a key from one of his pockets and opens the door, waiving for you to enter.

Spacious is the first word to come to mind as you enter the one bedroom apartment. This is very clearly not some rundown shack or hole in the wall. It is fully furnished with furniture, electronics, and all the other essentials one could want or need to live independently.

"This... is mine? All of it?"

You asked, the sound of shock creeping into your voice.

Darth Incarnus nods silently but with a small smirk on him face. Your turn your body to him completely and bow low, holding the pose for a moment before righting yourself.

"... Thank you."

You say after a moment.

No other string of words would be sufficient to express your thoughts or feelings in this moment. After a pause your turn and begin to explore. The kitchen is stocked with dishes and non perishable foods in preparation for the time you may be spending away from this place. The main room of the apartment is furnished with a couch and several chairs as well as a basic entertainment system. Dining room, half-bath, everything is furnished and ready to be used. Finally you make your way to the bedroom in the back and your jaw nearly drops. A massive lavish bed awaits you, nearly three times the size the bunk you were given in the Academy. drawers and shelves adorn the room with one final door in the back dedicated to your own personal bathroom. Darth Incarnus steps into the room behind you.

"I have locked the door behind us. Come, join me in the bathroom. While you will have time to further familiarize yourself with your new home later we have business in HQ."

He says.

Your eyebrow raises but you follow into the master bath which is similarly furnished, with a standing shower as well as a large bathtub in the back of the room.

"Place your hand upon this portrait."

Darth Incarnus says, gesturing to a rather interesting piece of artwork depicting a black hand grasping broken chains. You step forward and follow your instructions placing your bare hand against the picture. After a moment you hear a soft beep.

"Now into the shower."

Your Master continues.

The two of you enter the shower and an uncomfortable silence follows, however it is quickly broken as Darth Incarnus pulls the twist knob for the shower and a low hissing sound fills the room. The shower itself begins lowering into the ground much to your surprise and you see another identical shower sliding downward to take it's place as you slide further into the ground as if riding an elevator.

"This will be your direct means of transporting to our headquarters, and unless you are otherwise directed this will be your ONLY route to headquarters. Is this understood?"

"Yes Master."

You reply, however after several moments you cannot contain your own curiosity.

"...Did it HAVE to be in the shower?"

You ask.

Surprisingly the barest hint of a smile begins to show on the corner of Darth Incarnus's lips.

"It was the simplest way to be able to transport you and potentially others if the mission called for it. Believe me, my apprentice it is better then the alternative."

He replies.

After a solid ten minutes of downward motion the shower comes to a halt with another hiss of pressure and the door opens into a small room with a single light on the ceiling and a door. Upon approaching the door it slides open, smooth and silent and you peek outward into a massive sleek hallway.

"Welcome to the Headquarters of the Shadow Wardens, my Apprentice."
