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...

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...

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.
The fragmentation grenade detonated in a deafening blast that turned the tight shield arc into chaos. The shockwave tore through interlocked plates, hurled bodies backward, and shattered the formation’s precious cohesion. Shields flew loose. Security Forces stumbled. The...
Brosi Orbit
Aboard the Vigfjall
Featuring Aerik Lechner
Irina became aware of the noise first, the soft beep of monitoring equipment layered over the soft familiar hum of a ship she’d come to recognise as a second home. Then the discomfort came, the itch of bacta bandages working overtime...

We, Fabian Albinac, Monarch of Ukatis, hereby issue this Royal Decree, for the welfare and continued prosperity of Our Realm and all Our subjects:

She was sixteen.
Not a Knight.
Not even a full Padawan yet.
Just talented enough that the Council allowed her to accompany a routine mediation on Relis IV, a mineral moon with labor riots and faulty reactors. Simple. Educational. Controlled.
They paired her with Master Halren Vos, a...
Keren
Training Center
Elian Abrantes had been pushing himself since early morning.
The obstacle course at the Keren Royal Defense Complex stretched across the training grounds in long, unforgiving lines of walls, ropes, beams, and trenches. The Naboo air was cool when he started, still...
Location: Obulette
A--F E W--H O U R S--A F T E R--A STAB IN THE DARK
The door sealed behind Acier. The corridor outside hummed faintly with distant machinery, but no footsteps lingered. No presence pressed against the edges of his awareness. Still, that meant nothing now.
They were...
Naboo
Sanctuary
Aiden entered the office of Grandmaster Ala Quin with quiet composure, though the weight he carried was evident in his eyes. He offered a respectful bow before speaking.
"I did not step away lightly," he began, his voice steady but subdued. "The artifact we uncovered was not...
ENCRYPTION LEVEL BLACK
DESTINATION: SHIRAYA SANCTUARY Ala Quin
TIMESTAMP: +4 HOURS
Ala,
I didn’t leave because I was angry, and I didn’t leave to go to war.
I left because someone has to prepare for the mud.
There are things that need doing that a Jedi Order can’t touch and shouldn’t be...
