Darth Gyaumchem
The desert tundra was black with the filmy band of night. Sparks of starfire and ship-light brushed against the blackened canvas of Sabarene as a personal show for the lone viewer of this area's blessed nocturne. Ahani Najwa sat in lotus position on the sand, as with the application of her powers the Master of the Force moved through the environment and set a mandala into the sand. The Mandala built from Ahani's recent experiences, they formed through the horrors of her madness and the restraint of outside forces until the curling lines and shunting burls of a lunatic's bastion shifted into a glorious, righted state. Eyes pouring into the starry night, Ahani let the shackles of her past define the spacious surround. She tugged on a line. This one line was more than a stab into the madness. It was presence and beauty, it filtered through coiling mistakes and missed cues to a central bead on her heart. Darker than many of the influences in her life, this thread was not the unconscionable black of Ket Van-Derveld, nor of the incidious greys of Raien Keth. It was Metus. It was Isley Verd.
Isley Verd had gone missing and without knowledge of his whispers (as Ahani had a lack of substantial informants in the Mandalorian Cloud), with him had gone Metus. Darth Metus was a wicked marauder, the broken vestige of Dark in another man's mind but to Ahani's experience Darth Metus threw that cloak of hideous Dark around her shoulders against the cold of her ravaged, ragged mind. He'd saved her more times than she knew numbers for, at that time.
After receiving the Holocron from Warok the Defiler, Ahani had steeped in the final message Darth Metus had for Darth Gyaumchem. 'I love you, Ahani. I have loved you in ages past and I shall love you still. My time is fading. Soon I will be nothing but the foam on a beach's tide line. Be well, my Echani. It is my eternal wish you find your mind whole and become mighty within it. Keep safe and know beyond any shadows, you are loved.'
She'd burst into the quietest of tears, chasms of the things spilling down her face as she huddled with her arms over her knees and replayed the message from his blue coated beam of light. The only light the man ever had, if she was honest. So it was days later that Ahani's mind went searching the black.
In the quiet of Sabarene's night, in the undisturbed quality of time the astral projectionist threw her consciousness outward to tap and knock at the door of the universe to spread itself wide and give her cause and ability to find the last traces of Metus in the stars.
