Bombshell Genius
OOC: Per the rules of ionite, this thread is about the fallout of Jessica's past actions as told from a NPC perspective. Plus, as there is no good resource for Geonosian the closest Basic translation is there in place of the Acolyte's dialogue.
IC: A few days have elapsed after the nightmares on Ryloth and Geonosis. Ryloth was hopefully a non-factor and forgotten about, because they realized that it was not going to end well, but Geonosis was another matter entirely. A riot erupted inside Stalgasin Memorial Arena, where an estimated 40,000 Geonosians were unable to escape while the Sith began rioting. It was a disaster, mitigated only by the fact that Jessica only asked the battle droids to engage confirmed Sith, and not the other non-Sith unless provoked. They might have been gassed but the gas was non-lethal. While officially the responsibility of this disaster on Geonosis was attributed to one Herr Vanderhing, who is awaiting trial for this tragedy, Jessica is not entirely blameless: Catria, on the other hand, was. Catria played no role in organizing the convention, she didn't unleash the gas, nor the orb. It was a clumsy handling and she knew it. Not even her would have made such actions and she knew next to nothing about military strategy or crowd control.
"Jessica, I'm afraid that I don't entirely understand why you even made that speech in the first place, what do you hate about the Sith Triumvirate?" Catria asked.
"I harbor a deep-seated disgust for Sith factions, as opposed to Sith Lords themselves" Jessica answered.
"What makes you hate Sith factions as opposed to Sith Lords? I am a Sith Lord all right, in exchange of my life being spared I had to swear fealty to the Confederacy" a Sith Acolyte asked Jessica, in Geonosian.
