[Insert Pretentious Title Here]

To say that Mephirium was furious may have been an understatement. To put it simply, Minn had made him a bit frustrated. He did not take well to apprentices being slow, let alone ignoring him. For all the girl's talent, she lacked discipline, and it would prove to be her downfall soon enough were she to fail to rectify it.

"I said to cease. You should have listened." He said, his voice clipped with irritation. With a gesture, he beckoned the two women forth. Minn had proven herself to be useful in the past, and the new woman seemed to have promise. Before he could speak, however, the Rakata-like creature had begun its minor assault.

The drain was a short, testing thing, and only pulled at the edges of Mephirium's ethereal presence. Even still, he felt it in the numbing of his fingertips, and as a chill that passed over his flesh. His fury found new grounds in the Rakata, and he turned to view both the women and the alien.

"It would be unwise to try that again," he spoke coldly to the Rakata, the threat in his words all too obvious. "I will permit it this time, but any further intrusion on my being will be met in kind. I am no lesser creature. If you are what you seem to be, know that I am your people's successor." The words brooked no retort. "I am Darth Mephirium, and this temple was once mine. It comes to my attention that it is far too dangerous to allow you to live."

He paused, "However, if you agree to serve my ends, you will be allowed to do as you wish, so long as you do so to the empire's ends. Speaking of which," he turned to the girls. "Minn, learn to control yourself. Your recklessness will be your death, and I will not tolerate disobedience. You," he stared at Grace. "You've proven yourself. Gather your things, and come with me. I will see to it that your arm is repaired."

As the energy surged back to the Rakata's hand and body a over indulging sense of ecstasy. Ngoo's eyes widened and a uncontrolled grin formed across his face. Its very taste was delightful and strong. A sensation so strong Ngoo almost had to focus in order to actully hear some of [member="Darth Mephirium"]'s words and his offer. Keep the weird grin on his face the alien looked around slightly puzzled at the Temple and the two children playing with one another. Behind him he knew there was a forest and nothing else.

" Empire? From what I observe here I.... do not see a Empire. Are you.. how you're kind says, pulling my leg?" he sneered.

Mephirium waved a hand about in dismissal.

"Something being built," he explained. "Something in its infancy. It will come to rise, soon enough. So long as I draw breath, we shall bring worlds to the core."

Mephirium could not help but stare up at the taller creature. He did not particularly enjoy being 'sampled' by another sentient creature.

[Minn Tavers]

Minn hobbled forward, she was limping from the stab wound. The adrenaline had worn off, and she was too hurt to put to much force energy into it, the pain flowed through the stab wound like water through a river. It took a large amount of discipline to not just lie down and stop moving. The force attack didnt help either, Minn had broken multiple ribs in the aftermath, and her arm felt like it had been kicked by a bantha.

Minn limped over to her master, and began to kneel before him. Attempting to show fealty. Her breathing was heavy, and blood trickled down the side of her lip, she would need to get medical assistance, but now was not the time, there were more pressing matters to attend to at the moment, medical attention would have to wait.
