Set Controls (Silver Jedi Dominion of Shri-Tal)

[Quenladose]

This had been a long time coming, the work and patience that had gone into all of it. The tears from some or blood and sweat from others. Ayumi had worked closely with [member="Camellia Swift"] for a long time on this and now as Quenladose looked on at the system there was a great many things happening. The Go Nagai had been driven back but their ships had returned. Well a newer old model it seemed... these Ni-Gan's were built like tissue paper and made to obliterate settlements. She had decided to fight against them and go after the world to protect it leading the other Silver jedi who could follow.

"I want those engineers working, the interdictions fields and asteroids will only keep them away for so long but this ship needs to be ready to fight against them." The ship was massive in scale compared to many of the things they had and did. With all the work that had gone into it there was also the ground combat on the planet. Different worlds within the system and the stations from Rendili that had been built to help them. "Someone get ahold of the others, see who is able to come in and help out."

[Jeela Tillian]

Lieutenant Sval Nyoom was one of the seemingly few left behind from whatever had happened, which ensured a promotion to squadron leader faster than he had thought possible. It also meant a brand new squad he had to cobble together and form into a cohesive unit, literally on the fly. The young man rubbed at his temple as the squadron formed up behind him.

"Straighten up those lines, Aureks! We're fighter pilots, not a gaggle of drunk birds! By the Force!" A series of muttered apologies came through the comm. "Cut the chatter. Apologize later. Keep this clear for orders and sitreps."

This was a disaster. He didn't think any of the pilots had more than three dozen flight hours outside of the simulator. Cadets, the lot of them. Worthless for most operations, but the best he had currently.

"First priority is to recon the system. I'm on lead. Follow behind in wedge formation."

He tapped the comm over to @Quenladose.

"En route to recon system. Any data you're picking up we need to watch for?"

 

[Vulpesen]

Vulpesen's boots tapped against the surface of Shri-tal as he entered the area, a group of zorrens trailing behind him. Since the disappearance of Alexandra, Daella, and Ace he had become noticeably thinner, his eyes now seemed fairly cold and lifeless, only holding a spark of the man there once was. In his mind, he was now alone and his only anchor, Nokomis, his adopted daughter, and the hand of his son, Vallen which was clutched in his own. Two children had stayed. Everyone else was gone. He'd been spending days in meditation, looking for his love and child. He had to find them and he would starve himself before he gave up. At least, that was the plan until Daeda collected a group of Zorrens to literally drag him from the meditation chamber. They needed something to do and after much convincing, they managed to get him away from his mental search through the rivers of the force.

While many zorrens had returned, some still remained in the field and by some miracle, one had managed to stay on one of the few planets where their help would be welcome. Now, Vulpesen made his way to someone he had once knew, if by nothing other than name, @Quenladose. "You have the service of the Tenevi order, and by extension ,the Vitae Alliance." The ashlan and his joiners were right. Vulpesen had to move. He had to keep working. Even if he'd lost people, there were still some that depended on him. @Nokimis Arkay and Vallen were still there. He had to remember that.

Objective: Hide and get Black Orchids.

She was no different, she had felt the strange fluctuations in the force. Many voices cried out, lost and in pain. But she did not care at this point. Abaigeal is in hiding and with good reason. Actually without her reason. Her mind confused and set in darkness because of events most recent. But they have no place here and she would keep them to herself for the time being.

Her ship, well her mother's ship touched down on the surface of Orsonian. The Silvers seemed to have other things occupying them which will work well for her and popping open the canopy of the A-Wing she placed her mask over her head and set the environmental controls.

Her to harvest, she finds her way to an area known to have the rare Orchids. Even if someone approached, which she doubted, they would not know her, she is much changed, in all ways, and appearance equally so. Gone is the little girl that used to run around the Silver Temple, bare footed and free. Now stands the woman, developed quickly under the fertile grounds of pain.

 

[Darth Ren Malgus]

With all the voices and emotions draining away her strength it almost became painful to touch the force which seemed to be fluctuating sometimes it was there and then other times it disappeared.

She had to admit to being lonely now with everyone gone why could she feel so many others but not members of the Order. Was it possible that their cries were mixed into the others and she cold not decipher one from the other?

Shri-Tal this place was where everything regarding her empathy had started, she could not help but to look up at the skies to see if the red circle that had been drawn that day was there. The screams were but not the circle. Would she ever see [member="Connor Harrison"] again, or any of the others. Would they come back as silently as they left?

Serena walked towards the museum that held the artifacts, the tablets. Were they the cause of the problem? She was not sure.

Then the word came and once again there was to be a repeat of that day, the Go Nagai had returned. Serena tried not to swear but she couldn't help it.

 

[Quenladose]

[member="Serena Bouie"] [member="Abaigeal E'ron"] [member="Vulpesen"] [member="Jeela Tillian"] [member="Leori Sheltrak"] [member="Camellia Swift"] [member="Sochi Ru"] [member="Aika Kawakami"] [member="Danger Arceneau"]

She could see them, the BAC preforming as requested and slowly the Silver jedi fleet was moving. More soldiers being sent down to the planet and to reinforce the temple. Some being sent to help the companions and make sure they were safe but not intruding on their section of the mountains. Danger had that region, her people knew what they were doing and knew what was important. If they were in danger they would have been able to get them a message. "Have the fleet move to intercept the Go Nagai and engage them in the asteroid field. With luck they'll rile up some of the wasps and have to fight against them."

The petite jedi was working as the others went off, she had a team heading down towards the planet while the leader of the temple prison stood at the ready heading down. She had locked down the shadows temple to keep it secure and retreated to join them in silver jedi space. Now she was moving to the planet to handle the situation. They were still rebuilding the capital and now she saw it on the datapad. "Have the ships move into position and have the troopers on the planet work to secure the temple. We don't want the creatures in the pens to escape either."

 

[Eenes Kokad]

The Force felt... strange.
It wasn't like death, with its bittersweet twangs as a life quietly extinguished. It wasn't like battle, with its anguish and internal screams penetrating the minds of all who hadn't shielded themselves against it. It wasn't even like a surprise massacre, with thousands of voices suddenly crying out in terror and then suddenly silenced.
The Force felt... weak. As if it had been watered down. But even through that, there were odd twinges, sudden twists and knots that hadn't been there before.
The Force felt...

Eenes' meditation was interrupted by a jostle of the lander. She looked up at the troopers in the lander, most trying not to stare at her. They would be landing near the temple soon, reinforcements of a much larger game. With any luck, today would be more about rebuilding than destroying.

 

[Xion Vala]

Location: Orsonian Moon
Objective: Explore the moon

Xion hopped out his starfighter environment mask on his feet touched the ground. A moon he had never been to but had heard plenty rumors about. Now was the perfect time to explore it. He was supposed to be helping the Silver Jedi in the name of the Vitae Alliance, but he honestly had no clue where he was needed in the matter till he was contacted so he had taken the chance to come to the moon. Living in the wild away from most of society Xion hadn't actually known anyone who had been taken, but he did feel the force weakening. He was one who spent almost all his time in contact with the Force due to his inherent Miraluka traits so when everything was set in motion he was one of the first to know.

Even on Yavin where he had made a deep connection with the living force and wildlife the force was weakening, becoming little more than a whisper to Xion. This couldn't continue. If something wasn't done he had no clue what would come next. Upon returning to the jedi temple at first hearing their calls for help he had returned to find a significant number gone as well. Walking across the moon Xion saw the other presence there faint and in the distance. His own vision was becoming weaker along with the force.

[Coci Heavenshield]

[member="Xion Vala"]

She began to make her way to the fields. A sudden alert through the force made her aware of a presence, one she does not know, but the force is unstable these days, and much in the galaxy is out of order. Her head hurt too, the pain had returned but this time it was a cleansing.

Her breathing laboured not from the execrise but from the fear of what was to come with her and the pain it just would not go away. The force flickered taking away the location of the person close by, well it seemed that way.

So Abaigeal began to hurry to her desired location. Who ever it was can go about their business as she will hers. Regardless her hand fell on her saber hilt, to reassure her it was there, she had not had possession of it for sometime and having it back was empowering.

 

[Anastasia Rade]

Get to the Palace

She had plenty going on with the Mandalorian's at the moment to keep her busy for a good long while. Ana still felt the need to help the Silver Jedi and the people of this planet. Everything that Ana had collected on the current health of the planet didn't bode well.

The princess was dead and the rest of the high members of the council were either dead or missing. The people were in shambles which would never do. It was only a matter of time till gangs took over. Someone needed to take control and get things back in order.

When the Mandalorians lost Az they didn't fall down and give up. Strider had taken control to ensure things got done. In the middle of that they still looked for Az even now she was searching databases.

On her way here Ana had done research on the planet so she could figure out the best way that she could possibly help them. That right now consisted of getting to the palace and finding whomever was supposed to be in charge or better yet just taking charge herself.

 

[Darth Ren Malgus]

Serena would go to the temple this time to help secure it, staying in the city and helping the multitudes had given her nightmares for weeks. She focused on the temple and made her way there.

Along the way the panicked look in their eyes pierced her again, the shake in their voices as she shrieked, and the unending emotion of dread ran rampant on Shri-Tal today. And then just as Serena thought the force would protect her. It crashed leaving her exposed she blinked and stopped it was not as soul ripping as before but it felt odd, it felt like it was twisting within her. The sense of danger sprung up immediately, the sense of life overwhelmed her senses. Why was the force acting in this manner.

She tried breathing to find her breath cut off as the force slowly choked it out of her.

[member="Serena Bouie"] [member="Anastasia Rade"] [member="Abaigeal E'ron"] [member="Xion Vala"] [member="Eenes Kokad"] [member="Aika Kawakami"] [member="Sochi Ru"] [member="Camellia Swift"]

The others were moving on the planet working to protect and rebuild what they could as Quenladose could see it now. Long range sensors from the stations feeding into the BAC as more and more of the systems were coming online. She had a small smile on her face that they might just be able to do it while moving towards the asteroid fields. The first blip of an enemy ship coming into view out of the viewport. "When you have a clear shot move to engage, send the honorable fighters to draw them into the rest. Their shields will be able to protect them." There were nods of agreement and understanding as they all moved off to do their jobs. It wasn't a completely smart play but there wasn't many ships in the galaxy designed to compete with that cannon the Go nagai had.

 

[Coci Heavenshield]

Location: Orsonian Moon
Objective: Hide and get Black Orchids.

The moon surface proved difficult to cross. In some parts Abaigeal had to scale cliff faces, not that they are difficult as there was plenty of grip, but more that she lacked the strength to climb and by the time she had reached the top of the cliff, she had to rest. The force is uncertain, changing and for once unreliable. But little by little, the hold that Kiane had over her began to shift and weaken. But her head ached regardless, too much had transpired, the assault on her mind hard to overcome at this point.

She did not wish to meet anyone, let alone any members of the Silver Jedi, not yet it is too soon. And one day she knew she would have too, but she cared little for them now. Abaigeal stood up after resting and began her walk once more, she could sense the direct well enough, a strong concentration of the force lead her toward the field of Orchids. It was time to move, someone is about and following and she does not wish to confront them or hurt them.

Her body now riddled with scars from torture still weaken by it protested at her sudden burst of movement as she broke into a run, but she pushed the pain aside, it was nothing to feel now, having experienced much pain under the torture impliments. In a way, a strange way, it was a good thing begin able to suffer more pain the most people and it made her stronger through the force. The dark side fueling her resolve to achieve her new found goals.

 

[Garza]

Location: Planet side
Objective: Explore the planet and cave systems

Dressed up in my black battle armor, I held the shaft of a hammer. A rather heavy battle hammer. There was one thing that I was not to keen of. And that was exploring tunnels. However, considering that I was probably the most experienced fighter alive from what seemed to be a mass disappearance of people across the galaxy, I had to step up.

The light coming from the helmet dome lit up the caverns before me. I looked for many things within these caves. Anything about Artifacts, or even just the caves themselves. My hud marking where I was and making notes of the cave systems. Marking every 5 feet. I thought I might run out of marking room.

Hearing a clamor ahead, I kept moving. preparing myself to use the hefty hammer.

Cus baby, It's HAMMER TIME!

 

[Not Ordo]

The epic form of the great ship dropped from hyperspace and hung unmoving for a long moment. Helmetus looked out the viewport and nodded. He spun in a small circle and did a raise the roof gesture with his hands then raised the third finger of his right hand at a random crew member.

"I claim this world in the name of me." He said, "what is it called?"

" Shri-tal lord Helmetus." Major Rod replied.

"Pfft. I hate it. We will call it Helmetus-opolis."

"It will be added to the map my lord."

"Damn right it will."

"HAIL HELMETUS!"

"Fething right hail me."

The work of claiming the world done they activated their hyperdrive and went to the next world. His un contested galactic empire would reign supreme.

 

[Coci Heavenshield]

[SIZE=10.5pt]She readjusted her environment suit as it had rode up with the climb. Adaigeal would rest for a little while, just to get her breath back. She turned and looked down, her ship look like a dot in the valley below and this illustrated the height of her climb. The night has descended and in its fullness as the moon orbited in unison with the others in the system. Far in the night sky she could see the large ships, light ablaze and moving across the system toward other locations. What the Silver Jedi are doing here, she did not know or care as long as they remained away from here or did not sense her presence all would be well.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.5pt]Abaigeal began walking, it would not take long to reach her destination only just a short walk to the other side of the ridge to the valley filled with the black orchids. The nights wind pulled at her suit but did not penetrate to torture her skin with the cold. It is cold here this night. Everywhere seemed to be cold to her now and empty of an importance. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.5pt]There is not much to write home about with this landscape, just another place visited with a purpose and little to remember. And soon she stood looking down into the valley filled with the Black Orchid. They carpeted the place it seem, or at least in the night it looked that way, but the climb down would prove more difficult, and the cliff face holds little in way of leverage, she would just have to take her time. Abaigeal walked across the ridge looking for the best place to begin her descent. The force is strong here, she can sense the plants but yet it is unstable, or is it she? [/SIZE]

[Aithne Charr]

Solan looked over what was before him and then took a glance at [member="Quenladose"], his voice sounding behind his mask that looked more like a skeleton than anything else. "So, what is it that we have here and that you need the help of the Vitae Alliance for my dear Silver Jedi, hmm?" He had helped the Silver jedi before on this very world with his old friend Una Gal, where she had disappeared to he would never know but oh well. "Just give the word and command and im there."

The ships were directly engaging now, the petite jedi could see it all coming at them while the sounds of the guns spinning up. Camellia Swift had done a great job working this ship into being something expansive, making it protected while their shielding came up reading in the green. Communication systems and the BAC were coordinating the other ships with her while they pushed towards the enemy fleet firing a wide arc into the asteroids to clear some while also restling awake the creatures inside of them. She was gambling but the readouts from the screen brought her attention around more into line with the BAC that was having the ships spread out to minimize their cannons effectiveness as well as take advantage of their forward heavy firing arcs.

 

[Saffron]

Location: Companion GuildHouse
Objective: Secure the temple and ensure the safety of all Companions.

It happened out of nowhere.

First came the screams. Then the cries of alarm. Many were missing. Was it an attack?

Saffron's heart was at her throat, that pulse fluttering akin to the beat of a hummingbird's wings. The glistaweb silk of her nightgown would flow and drift about her bare legs, her long blonde hair flying behind her as she would rush barefoot upon the temple steps.

"Adari, Sybilla!" came her call, worry seeping in her voice. For the Empath, this was starting to overwhelm her. From those who were left behind to that which went well beyond the nether.

What was going on?!

 

[Coci Heavenshield]

She found a break in the rock formation, a jutting cut in the shape of a V as if the rock had splintered from some energy force. However, that mattered little but the effect of it created much disruption to the formation and provided plenty of holds for the descent into the valley below. Making sure everything she carried is secured to her body, she began to climb down.

It would be slow and delibrate and only aided by the light of the moons. And yet light flickered in the skies above, on one of her pauses to rest Abaigeal looked skyward to see the battle continue. Sharp blasts and explosion pitted the night sky, the Silvers are fighting in space it seems for now and she knew at some point they would descend to ground. What the situaion was she had no idea and cared nothing for it, only wishing to remain hidden on her own little insurrection. They are occupied and paying her no interest, which is just fine as it will make her job a lot easier.

Abaigeal began once more, her head looking down between her body and the surface of the rock, feet placed in a hold before lettling go making sure her body is pressed to the rock surface as best it can be. The placement of enegry, weight and mass important else one will fall.
