Simeon waded his way through the Hypaethral Garden, his footsteps drowned out by the bristling of the flowers and leaves against the wind. The sun had just recently raised, giving the garden a glimmering clementine hue. The aroma of the garden was sharp, as scents from all different flowers and plants in the galaxy clashed to create something he had never smelled before. As he began to reach the display of Queens Heart, a vine unlike anything else in the garden, he could make out the figure of Lily Kirsche Kuhn, the woman he was meant to meet. She stood at a much shorter stature than Simeon expected from someone in her position, yet looks were deceiving in the galaxy, and he wasn't one to underestimate individuals on mere sight. This meeting was obviously very private, taking place in a relatively exclusive portion of the fortress, but The Sith has as many eyes in the shadows as they do sabers in their armory, and Simeon was as privy to this as any other diplomat in the galaxy worth their weight in credits.
The journey to Bastion was a long and cumbersome one. To even reach the garden, Simeon and his small group of elite soldiers had to pass through more checkpoints than he cared to remember, eventually having to leave them to wait in the ship before he even got near the Imperial Palace, and the planet was a long way away. Simeon had planned on staying in the capital for a night, before departing in the morning back to The Hold. Not only were he and his men exhausted, but he quite enjoyed being in such a bustling capital, reminding him of Coruscant, a time long forgotten to his memory. The light chatter of imperial families drowned out as he finally approached Lily.
As he drew more near, they locked eyes for a moment, before he began to speak. "The beauty of this garden knows no bounds, such as the nature of The Sith Empire" Simeon proclaimed to the woman before taking a small and courteous bow to her. For the meeting, he donned a simple robe made of fine garments, with a pin of his faction on it, a high tower with a thin and narrow bridge leading to the top of it, glistening in a shade of deep orange from the sun. "It brings me a great honor to be invited to this place, and you have my gratitude for the audience. I'm glad our communications have led us to this meeting." Simeon extended his hand toward Lily for a handshake, his joints were stiff, and his face as uninviting as usual.
