"What lessons does one take from their past?"
"It wasn't a request."
"I never thought it was."
"Then why do you carry yourself like you're making a demand?"
"I'm highly entitled."
"Honesty isn't common among the Sith."
"I never really fit in with the rest of them."

The apartment was quiet save for the rapping and tapping of the rain which constantly fell on Dromund Kaas. It had been the one sound Aerik had to filter out the fastest because of his sensitive hearing. The noises from the city were not nearly as aggravating as the repetitive cadence of the...
Lately I've found myself interested in pirates, and ran a few searches for open market pirate ships and shadowports and thought I'd share what I've found. While there are certainly plenty of open market ships perfect for space corsairs, I'm mostly linking the ones made with them in mind. If you...

Greetings, I am Padawan Eloise Dinn of the Vonnuvi Jedi Enclave. I have enclosed with this message a copy of a recording of an...
Mia felt her coming long before the door opened, Tess had never been particularly loud in the force, except when she was angry. Had the door been on hinges, she probably would have kicked it open for the sheer hell of it. Instead it slid open letting her step in two paces before she stopped...
Inside THE ENTERPRISE, with a HISS. The airlock opened. Steam curled. CONNEL VANAGOR stepped through in full Shadow gear—battle-worn, imposing. He took a b breath—then… THUD. BUSTER, a massive Gallinorese Mountain Aak Dog, SLAMMED into him with joyous force.
Easy—! Heheh Okay…
He stumbled...

It was fitting for what today was. Elian didn't stand close, that was the last place he wanted to be. They didn't blame him, it wasn't his fault. That was what he heard over and over, several times. Too many times to be truthful. So much that he believed...
Hours Prior to Abduction
Damos Rennar Sibylla Abrantes Shade
Cassian stood in front of Damos Rennar with his hands resting at his sides, not folded, not tense, just still. The room felt smaller than he remembered it. He had stood here before to receive orders, to argue strategy, to accept...
For a long time, I thought Katarine Ryiah was a failure.
Not in the obvious sense, she survived, she trained, she became a Jedi Knight, but in the way that mattered to me. She never measured up. Not to the names that carried weight. Not to the Jedi who felt larger than life. When I thought...
Location: Nar Shaddaa
The Black Sun Syndicate was no longer a major player in galactic affairs. Oz wouldn’t pat himself on the back for such an outcome, he didn’t believe he did enough to bring about its downfall beside being a bit of a boogie man from a number of Falleen vigos though working...
THE FAMILIAR
THE FIRST SCION
It was not meant to follow.
It was meant to survive.
Suspicion is its instinct.
Distance, its shield.
It tests all things.
It believes in none.
And still, it remains at her side.
Not claimed.
Not controlled.
But choosing her, all the same.
Loyalty...
THE MOTHER
THE FIRST INHERITANCE
The Nightsisters do not forget.
Even when their daughters do.
Blood remembers what the mind cannot.
It coils in silence.
It watches through her eyes.
Not a gift.
Not a curse.
A continuation.
She does not call it.
It calls her.
And she listens.
The...
THE PACT
THE FIRST CUT
She had nothing left to bargain with
but what she had not yet lived.
He did not ask for it.
He did not need to.
She gave it anyway.
Not her life.
Not her blood.
Her beginning.
And in its place-
something that would survive.
The price is paid before it is...
Alcohol warmed Mia, flowing through her veins in a way that stripped away inhibitions and made the problems of the galaxy seem far away. Her breath misted in the cool night as she slipped out of the wrecked wall of what had once been a bar under the Diarchy's reign.
Yaga Minor had folded under...

Location: Hyperspace
The noise of the CSL Trinity was gone now, replaced with the low mechanical groan of a transport still traveling through the dark, and Ace standing somewhere quiet enough that he could hear his own breathing again. He hated the quiet. Quiet left too much room.
He stood...

COMM-THREAD 32-2 | ENCRYPTION: 452304
TO: Sibylla Abrantes
FROM: Quinn Varanin
Sibylla,
I heard the news about your family. I'm sorry, truly.
I'm sure you've already received more condolences than you know what to do with, but still… take care of yourself. Don't let this consume you.
If I...
He hadn’t planned to stand there, watching the stars. But there he was anyway. Quiet. Still. Feeling small… and somehow part of something larger looking outward at the endless expanse of the night sky…
Also, Buster liked eating outside.
What he had just done, handing Conservator, the...
