A Dark Muse: Two to Tangle

[Ra'a'mah]

The sith of course said the dark side was stronger, but it was likely all she had ever known. So Ra took that into consideration.

Remembering her sore and achy muscles after training with Dune, Ra snorts a bit of laughter.

"Life is pain. One gets used to it or falls apart."

The woman across from her had certainly showed her a different life than what she was used to. Though what happened in the club was going to stay there. A potential new path was in front of her, if she just took the step.

"Do you know how one learns to use Sith Lightning, true Sith Lightning, my dear?" Ravana asked Ra with a raised brow after her bout of laughter, when Ravana had mentioned the topic of pain.

 

[Ra'a'mah]

Ra gave Ravana a flat look, shook her head and clearly sarcastic laugh came from her.

"How could I? I'm Jedi trained."

She took another drink and carefully set the glass on the table again.

[Darth Exode]

"You get tortured by barrages of it. Until you know how it feels to be struck by it, and the power behind it. Sure, you can conjure lightning if you try hard enough before hand, but it will never be as powerful as true Sith Lightning. Imagine, getting electrocuted day in and day out, until you yourself can electrocute someone else with the same power. Hours of pain, that if you don't fight through, and draw power from, you are likely to get hit with another bout, making the pain harsher and last longer. That's why I say that Sith Training is likely more painful than Jedi Training. I doubt it got electrocuted every day for a solid year." Ravana said, with a reminiscent look etched into her beautiful face.

 

[Ra'a'mah]

At the description [member="Darth Exode"] gave of how to learn sith lightening, Ra just winced at the thought.

Tipping her now almost empty glass across at Ravana, she finished the drink and set the glass down again.

"No there is nothing even close to that from I've noticed."

She couldn't imagine something like that.

 

[Darth Exode]

"I was ten. But it is in the past now. I wish my Master had of lived longer. She could have taught me much more than she did, angry, jealous queen..." Ravana said with a slight smirk on her face as she sipped a drink she stole of a drunken passer by, giggling as she did. She fingered her athame necklace as she watched the Dance Floor return to what it was.

 

[Ra'a'mah]

"You sound like you both admire and hate her at the same time."

If that was all [member="Darth Exode"] had ever known though then it fit. Like Ra had no idea what love was, never having gotten any as a child.

The sith swiped a drink from one of the people passing by and Ra just stared around in her drunken haze.

"I think I'm numb enough you can take this thing off my mind."

 

[Darth Exode]

"I loved her, and I hated her, at the same time, with equal measure. She made sure of that." The sad, reminiscent smile was plastered on her face.

When Ra asked her to take the mind block off, Ravana smiled and gave her the same kiss on the forehead as she did before, and waited to see what she would do, now that she was no longer blocked.

 

[Ra'a'mah]

"What was other training like? You just shared one example."

If that was just one thing a Sith went through Ra wasn't sure she could handle the answer.

After asking to the block removed, [member="Darth Exode"] kissed her on the forehead again. Having been already in the club for a period of time, Ra had gotten accustomed to that level of exposure. When the block was removed, she was not overwhelmed as she had been when she first walked in.

The sights, sounds and smells came on at her full blast, almost knocking the wind out of her with the impact it made. She sat a moment to get used to it with her eyes closed and when she opened them again she was fine.

Looking across the table at Ravana, she gave the woman a smile.

"Thank you."

 

[Darth Exode]

"You are Welcome." Ravana said with a slight smile.

"As to my training? Sith Training is designed to enhance your hatred, your lust for power, and your lust in general. I was brought up from the age of two, to Love and Hate my master. I Loved her, as she cared for me as a mother cares for a child, and in my teenage years, like a Lover, when it took her fancy, even if I didn't want to participate. I Hated her, because I was basically a slave at times, especially due to the fact her favourite motivational devices were Sith Lightning, and Her Lightwhip, toned down, so it left burns that could be easily healed. It was Heaven and it Was Hell... IT was... My Life, and the only one I knew. But she has been dead for over a Year Now. So... I am doing what takes my Fancy." When Ravana said this, with a tone of non-care. Of Boredom, as if it was boring to discuss that life. "I do want to find her Lightwhip though. I always thought it looked cool."

 

[Ra'a'mah]

Maybe it was the drink speaking for her, but Ra listened to the tale [member="Darth Exode"] told and it was as much as she assumed.

"Like me at the orphanage to a degree though we weren't abused so much as not loved. Why I have never felt love or experienced it.
Time permitting, maybe we can go quest to find this light whip you want."

To be able to do whatever one wanted at any given time was indeed a temptation. Something for Ra to think on when her head was clearer.

 

[Darth Exode]

"I would like that. I intend on stripping it, and transforming my Curved lightsaber to a New Lightwhip, that I can honestly say is mine." She said with a smile as she hugged Ra thankfully for what she had offered her. "Thank you. Truly."

 

[Ra'a'mah]

"I've only seen a light whip once."

Ra left out that it had been in duel that ended in a draw. Neither she nor the sith she had fought won.
​
Taken a little aback by the hug, Ra relaxed into the embrace and returned the hug.

"Ha don't thank me until we've accomplished finding it."

[member="Darth Exode"]

 

[Darth Exode]

"I am thanking you anyway." It was then that a devious smirk lit up Ravana's face. "So, my darling..." She purred, "do you have any... prospects... on your mind tonight, my dear? Any... friends of the male variety, in your life, giving you any... fun thoughts?" Her smirk was damn near predatory at the moment.

 

[Ra'a'mah]

Ra smiled a little more at [member="Darth Exode"] and then she asked a not so odd of a question for the location they are in. Over the past year, Ra had met a few guys that had caught her attention. Looking almost a little shy at her answer, she blushes slightly but pushes forward.

"Yes, there are a few. Nothing serious though. There's Zhin, Nathan and Cedric."

When Ra mentioned the last name, her eyes grew a kinda dreamy look to them and she blushed a little more even.

[member="Darth Exode"]

 

[Darth Exode]

If anything, her smirk got even worse, at the look on Ra's face. "And who would... Cedric be? You make the man sound like Adonis, dear heart..."

'Ah... Young Love... even though she is probably older than me. oh well. Semantics.' Ravana thought to herself. 'This man sounds fun... and the name sound familiar... Cedric... Cedric... where the hell, do I know a Cedric from..?'

 

[Ra'a'mah]

Ra continued to have the slightly dreamy look in her eyes as she spoke.

"He's the young leader of the Dominion and Ession. He's the same height as you, built well with dark, almost black hair and the greatest of blue grey eyes that you'll ever see."

Continuing on, playing with her empty glass now and placing her hand under jaw bone, resting her head on it.

"So honorable and noble.
Like nobody else I've ever met."

[member="Darth Exode"]

 

[Darth Exode]

"He sounds attractive, dear heart... but I won't come and steal your squeeze away from you. But I will need to meet him one day... it's not polite to join someone's... Group? Kingdom? Alliance? Faction? Well, whatever you wish to call it, without meeting with the Leader, now, is it? And when I see him, I can see who you are gushing about... and who is making my new poor, innocent little friend, think such dirty thoughts. I think you should give him a spanking for making you thing like that, dear heart." She punctuated the sentence with a giggle, reminiscent of twinkling bells or Chimes.

 

[Ra'a'mah]

Stopping in her playing with the empty glass, Ra looked at her friend.

"You're part of the Dominion too?
Small galaxy huh?"

She smiled a little more knowing they were on the same team.

"I don't think he would appreciate being spanked, but you never know he may like it."

Giggling along with [member="Darth Exode"] at the thought of her spanking the Archlord.

 

[Darth Exode]

"I was once Part of The One Sith, had been since birth. I went into an self-imposed exile that lasted for 5 years. When I came back... it was gone. There was not much left. So, I joined the first recruitment party I came across, since I had no purpose. I joined the Dominion. And now... my purpose is to do what I feel like, within the Laws of Dominion. Still. It would be nice to meet the Leader. I haven't heard much, but I would like to know who the Archlord plans on doing things within the Dominion. I admittedly don't know much, I just liked what the recruiters pitched. What about you? I somehow doubt it is due to our dashing young Lord, that you joined in the first place."
