Darth Abyss
Eldritch
Malachor V, Spheres of Ash
The Eye of Darkness was one of the many small havens for the followers of the Dark side that Abyss had created all throughout the Free Cities of Malachor, outfitted with both quarters for them, as well as a small command center to plan and oversee current operations. Normally the sith lord preferred the citadel in the Tainted City or his bunker deep below Nar Shaddaa for pre operation planning, but with the current target residing in the Spheres it was the more pragmatic decision to execute his plans from here. The target in question was a rare sight on Malachor, a jedi padawan to be precise. That alone was not a reason to take action, after all things often balanced out by itself in the Free Cities. But the way this looked, this would not be the case this time.
"Shadow Hand, I have a mission for you."
On a number of displays behind him short video feeds, pictures as well as marked maps could be seen, showing the area where the jedi resided in as well as her general optic, skills and excitement. A young Twi'lek girl, with a blade as blue as her skin had somehow found her way to his world, and stumbled right into the city of Free slaves, or "The Free Spirits" as they called themselves. As it was her way as a jedi, she saw it as her duty to help them in any way she could, and she quickly became a paragon for the people in the lower city. That alone still wasn't a problem, a symbol of hope could have its uses when keeping the cities under control. But something else had come up around her, and now there was the need to get her out of the picture, quietly. A job he could easily do himself, but his time was valuable these days. So he had called for his shadow hand to do it.
"This jedi girl is threatening the balance inside the Spheres. Clearly I can not allow that to happen. For a time I found it to be quite entertaining to watch her struggle against the odds of a city ruled by violence and crime, but recent Intel suggests that she has become a threat to my operation. See for yourself."
The displays switched their content, showing a quick series of different scenes that involved the jedi girl. The first few simply showed her compassionate efforts to share food and medicine through the population, followed by her defending beggars and other against robberies. The last few on the other hand pictured her with a group of Twi'lek goons, enforcing "peace" in a rather militant way, her eyes showing hints of yellow.
"She is rash and uncontrolled, but that makes her no less of a threat. The people are ready to rally behind her, they see her as some kind of leader. I want her out of the picture, but in a way that masks my involvement in all this to minimize the fallout. Kill her silently, and dispose of her body if possible."
The choice for this mission fell to his shadow hand instead to one of his agents for one simple reason: He was what could be considered a deniable asset, a agent that didn't wasn't affiliated with him in any offical way. Exactly the kind of operative for a Black ops.
