They did not congregate in an opulent throne room. That would have, indeed, posed quite a few difficulties, if one meant throne room in the most literal sense of the word. As opposed to a room the monarch held court in and that featured a large chair for them. The royal palace of Suqua still lay...
In a development sending shockwaves through Sith political and economic circles, the enigmatic figure known only as Quern has, by verified transfer of assets, become one of the wealthiest individuals within the Sith Order.
The windfall stems from a late will issued by High Treasurer Elane II of...
Post-Price for Happiness
Ukatis
Indirect: Alina Grayson
Ukatis met Aiden with a kind of quiet that felt older than the stones beneath his boots. The air held a crispness that carried the scent of pine and distant rain, and the sky above the valley had that pale clarity that made every rooftop...
"This is just bad writing. Just bad writing. So you know what to do.
Just do it.."

"No bad writing. I think that solves it."

The Secret Window (2004)
Katarine Ryiah had been staring at the same datapad line for far too long.
The case was closed, signatures filed, evidence cataloged, conclusions approved by the Council, but her fingers kept hovering as if there were something left to fix. Eventually she exhaled, slow and controlled, and set...
RUMORS FROM THE CORE
GHOST SHIPS
A trio of star destroyers, each bearing Empire markings and transponder codes, has been detected at the edge of the Duro System. The squadron has made no incursions towards the Duros homeworld, and all attempts to hail the ships have been met with silence...
Sularen sat in his office as he carefully went through the High Republic’s recent proclamation. They had announced their displeasure at the abduction of Cynan Obaith and demanded that the so-called Corellian Ambassador was to be returned to them unharmed. An absurd demand that reeked of...

The platform still trembled beneath his paws when she spoke his name.
Smoke drifted from the dark fur along his shoulders and spine, and heat rolled from him in steady waves that distorted the air above the reinforced plating. The molten...
Duracrete and durasteel rumbled all around her as Adelle held the barrier of Force protecting her. She barely heard Aselia Verd 's voice in her comms, something about wasting their time here. Adelle ground her teeth as chunks of debris large enough to crush her slammed into the shield of will...
To: Diarch Rellik, Reign, other Commanders of the Diarchy
We recommend that the forces of the Dirachy give more thought to their actions after the Conquering of Yaga Minor and other affected worlds, taken in haste before retaliation occurs.
Three of your worlds are now under our direct...
"-With Casualty numbers still being counted, it is unclear if the Defense of Yaga Minor was truly worth the cost, millions destroy-"
With a large ting of feedback and static, the Diarchy New Network programming would halt completely, slowly fading to someone in unfamiliar armor, no symbols...

Coruscant.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
The name surfaced in CT-312’s mind without any meaning. Stripped of everything this planet had once represented. There had been a time where the planet's name carried weight. Now it was only a place. And like any place… it could...
Recovery was slow, at first. Aerik had remembered nothing of what happened on Brosi after he’d been wounded and the beast took over. All he remembered was waking up to the feeling of grass beneath his fur and the artificial sun lamps warming his back. It was unreal, and yet, he felt like he was...
The corridor erupted.
