Darth Abyss
Eldritch
Malachor V, The Tainted City
Darth Abyss, the Mindeater and undoubted ruler of the first free city of Malachor V had a plan, but one that he wouldn't be able to accomplish on his own. Not because he lacked the skills, but the time while leading a slowly rising empire of crime and corruption with subtle yet effective manipulation of chaos and anarchy. But there was someone who had the time, or rather had to have the time when Abyss said so. His apprentice, [member="Eshtaol"], still fairly lacking in the arts of dark side, but surprisingly skilled in acting and deceiving. Like Master, Like Apprentice.
The Tainted City was one of the few things that he, a man that claimed to have no ego, was proud of, a city where chaos was the power that dictated the course of fate, and not some petty government that told anyone what they had to do. More than once he had been called someone who enjoyed control, but all those that said so simply lacked the vision for what it truly was that he desired. Control could be taken away, but by shaping events by influencing the natural chaos that came with individuals creating a society, he could enforce his will without actually being in control of anything. The flux was a effective tool, as long as he had enough eyes and ears to know when to act and when not.
When his apprentice would wake up, she would find a datapad in her room inside the Abyss Academy, and once she would boot it up, she would get a message telling her that a ship was waiting for her. Abyss himself waited in an apartment in the slums of the city, one that, at least by Tainted City standards, was clean and rather comfortable, not because it was big or luxuries but because it had everything one could need, including furniture and stocked up supplies to stay there for weeks, maybe even months.
This wouldn't be the home of Abyss, no it would be the one of his apprentice. A false home for a false identity that she would have to take for the mission Abyss had laid out for her. The details of this mission were deliberately excluded from the message he had left her, simply because he knew that every electronic device could be hacked by the right people and didn't meant to destroy the whole operation from the start. She would learn soon enough what it was that she had to do.
