Amidst the rays of dawn did The Gloom break.

Another day had begun on the distant world of Krant. Above, a tapestry of warm colors began to stretch across the heavens - breaking the hold of night. The advance of the sun spread light, life, and warmth upon the slumbering land. So much so that even the prevalent mists rolled back for a time. In this rare window, the way towards Netra'yaim was clear. And with it, the path to Kasgrove. For the natives and infrequent visitors of the world, the verdant glade was a mystery. Most did not even know that such a place existed.

But for those privileged few, the grove was a source of opportunity.

In recent history, the master of Krant had extended this knowledge to his Knights. The Obsidian host would be welcome to set foot upon Kasgrove and to taste the fruits therein. At face value, the towering arbors were just that - trees of immense age and stature. Yet, those blessed of the Force would understand their significance at a glance. They would feel the rumblings of knowing within the wood. They would feel the presence of life, of power, of the Force within each and every trunk.

And in the mind of Darth Metus, there was no more fitting memorial for the woman who had set him upon his path. She, who at the end of her life, settled matters by uttering Zhol Kash Dinora - It is Finished. She was a dear friend, robbed of this world far too soon. She was his Master. And though death had come a lifetime ago, her memory would always remain within his heart. So long as the Sith drew breath, the Galaxy would know that Rave Merrill existed.

This day, as dawn blessed the Grove, he sat at the base of one of the trunks. Before him was a rather simple assortment of woodworking tools. About him were the simple sounds of nature, coupled with the symphony of blade upon branch. He knew not who would grace the Grove this day - but if they came, they would be more than welcome.​

This "padawan" thing wasn't going as he expected.

Oh, he wasn't disappointed; by some measures he wasn't surprised, in others, things were very much unexpected. The way Teyla Ee'everwest reacted to him was the unsurprising bit, but everything else caused him to be more pensive than he had been in in a handful of years. In effect, she was making him think, not so much in introspection (though there was some of that) but on the matter of next steps.

Much to think about in her absence, but thinking wasn't all that filled his time, temporarily without a padawan to actively invest in. Lending his Force-borne strength to the ongoing construction projects created by the shift of the Confederate capital to Naboo was a reasonable task for the strong telekinetic, and one gladly contributed to, so that the end of the construction noise would be brought about faster. And in the quiet hours, when the day's work was done, he was left with his thoughts again. Schedule conflicts left him without the ribbing of Rothe as a distraction, and reviewing his own skills could only be done so much. So, when the niggling feeling made itself known in the back of his mind, Luca chased it down readily, the Force leading him through clues pointing ultimately to the far-flung world of Krant...

...and traipsing through the forest, wading through the mist, until he stumbled upon a glade, the call of the Force having thrummed stronger the closer he got, until it seemed deafening, and when Luca happened upon the secluded place, the thrumming ceased, seeming to be washed away or subsumed under the cumulative and ancient presences therein... and a man he had seen only on holofeed, heard over broadcast, and had never personally met: the Vicelord, the Darth himself, seated at the base of one of several old trunks in this place. Luca looked over his shoulder to where he had just emerged from, then back again to the glade, with more critical perception.

"Pardon my impertinence, my Lord..." his gaze finishing its tour, coming to settle on the other man, who was darker in more ways than one, "...but what is this place?"
