"A Dramatic Force-Blessed Myth"
On the third end of this conflict, Vulpesen was starting to make way in his investigation. So far, he'd ruled out several of @[member="Alena Beswin"]'s accomplices, most of which were political allies. Sure some of them might have been a bit dirty, but nothing quite so worthy of a sith. Still, there were some such as Yusan Fenn who's activity had been slightly worrisome, such as the Darth Orcus incident. Of course, he had also been at Yusan's side in conflict against the sith. It was a bit confusing, but in the end he was leaning towards innocence.
Back to the Queen of Kuat, the more Vulpesen dug the more interesting she became. The records he could find showed that she had arrived on Kuat just a bit after the Gulagh plague around four hundred years ago. For someone so old, she looked quite young. Garhoon or not, he'd like to know her beauty tips. Looking further in, Vulpesen was surprised by something very strange. She was a politician. That was a fact, an inarguable fact, and yet... she was clean. Sparkling, not a mark, not a scandal! Of course, Zarro would likely appear the same way, but he was new to the business and Vulpesen was personally aware of some of his mentor's less than legitimate trades. But this woman, with around five-hundred years was as if she were a bright eyed representative. This in of itself wasn't enough to even a questioning but then his eyes noticed the death of her husband.
The man had died under unknown circumstances after the birth of her daughter. An heir and then nothing. Of course, her brokenhearted nature was put on record but there was always a story. People could fake crying, especially when they were the ones who orchestrated the event. Now wasn't the time for accusations, but Vulpesen's suspicious mind was clinging on to fact after fact, consuming them like wood to a fire. If Senator @[member="Alena Beswin"] was caught up in the business of a sith queen, then things were about to go very badly for her career. Of course, he would first have to find more reasons and confirm his suspicions beyond reasonable doubt. He was working off hunches an speculations. Two things that didn't work well in a court room. Especially when the defendant had enough power to send you to whatever hell hole in the galaxy she chose.
