Nasal had never been a fan of disorder and chaos. But during these difficult times, difficult choices had to be made. During this new conflict, in which the Brotherhood of the Maw was attacking the NIO and Galactic Alliance, the lines that were once clear to him were now blurred. There was no longer any assurance of who was friend and who was foe. Vemrich had always chosen his allies very carefully. Due to his caution, he kept himself out of the concurrent galactic conflict. However, with the Sith Empire's collapse, it was time for him to reenter the game. And the New Sith Order seemed like the best place to restart. Vemrich had considerable resources. As a powerful Noblemen within the Tion sector, he had a large amount of influence, especially within the sector. he had several strongholds, strategic bases, outposts, and his personal security force. They were former mercenaries, called the "Windborn". However, Vemrich had rewarded them so well for working for him for several years, that they decided to work for him, full-time. Of course, they required a hefty monthly fee, but credits were of very little issue to Nasal. He had also been investing in the spice trade as well as monopolizing the Aurodium & Osmium markets. From his trade deals, personal military force, and strong bases, House Vemrich had a pretty secure and strong power base. However, Nasal knew that it could be taken away within a split second. With his large amount of resources, he was a valuable ally for anyone. So it was no wonder that several Sith Lords within the BotM and the New Sith Order began to schedule talks for alliances. One such Sith, a Knight named Lord Letifer , was on the way to meet Nasal. The Sith Nobleman was hopeful that if he could add this Sith Knight to his power base, other powerful Sith would take notice and begin to respect his considerable strength and influence.

Vemrich traveled from one of strongholds, aboard his personal flagship, a Vengeance-class Star Battlecruiser, which he had named "The Darth Nihilus". Vemrich had taken from a Vice Admiral within Moff Drybis Lyken 's Imperial Remnant known as the Imperial Bastion. Similar to other Sith of the TSE, Nasal believed that the incompetence of the Imperial Navy and Army led to their downfall. Of course, Moff Lyken and his supporters have a very different belief. Nevertheless, Vemrich had seized it by tricking the commanding officer that he wished to join the Remnant. Vemrich had forced some of the crew to stay aboard, while the rest he supplemented with soldiers from the Windborn.

They had agreed to meet upon the Outer Rim world of Ession. The world had been within the TSE, but when the Empire fell, its planetary leadership haphazardly declared it neutral. Of course, they were just waiting for the right faction to come along, or the right master....

Vemrich now stood upon the bridge of his large flagship, looking down upon the surface of Ession. One of his vessel commanders, Colonel Bellat, approached from behind.

"My lord, we have arrived at Ession",

Vemrich spoke swiftly, "Yes, I can see that Colonel". "Have we been given clearance to descend towards the planet?".

"Well sir, ummm, we could just descend anyway, we have far more....". The Colonel was cut off.

"It doesn't matter if we are strong enough to ignore their requests, it is about being polite and cordial Colonel, something your previous Sith overlords failed to explain". "I shall correct that mistake".

"Well in that case sir, they have given us permission to descend".

"Very good Colonel, begin the approach".

"As you wish, my lord". The Colonel bowed and returned to his post and soon began giving orders to bring the ship down.

Vemrich now closed his eyes and tried to make a connection down to the planet. Using the force to search for this Sith Knight and sense if he was already onworld. If he sensed the Sith, then the Sith would sense him as well. Vemrich was beginning to feel eager about the meeting. Little did the Sith Lord know what awaited him at the end of the partnership with this Sith Knight. Little did he know......

LETIFER | NEW SITH ORDER
Ession - Ommin-class Sith Infiltration Shuttle


PEACE IS A LIE​

The Sith shuttle screamed overhead as it pieced the heavenly veil over the once proud ecumenopolis, it’s populace crushed under the thumb of the now shattered Sith Empire. This world was dead, few living creatures continued to dwell here. The automated factories were still, the droid workers abandoned, left to rust in the forges made from the ashes of the Dominion. It was ironic how their numbers had returned, delivering the very same justice dealt to them by the weak willed, the false Sith.

The Ashlans would someday soon retake their homeworld, on that day this world would be reborn again. The cycle renewed..

..until one day it would burn again. The New Sith at the helm of the deluge to come, a great flood of fire and death.

The Brotherhood of the Maw.

The Ommin-class came to a screeching halt as it’s wings folded in, it lowered down towards the barren earth where it touched upon the surface. The Sith Assassin took his leave as the landing ramp lowered, spilling steam out from the underbelly of the vessel. His loud footsteps resounded against the metal until he touched down upon the ground of Ession, “I sense him.”

He stood in wait amidst the darkness, his cloak fluttering in the wind. It was not too much longer before he noticed a ship begin to touch down in the distance, he began his trek on foot to meet this new ally. This Sith whom sought to bring him into the fold.

Lord Vemrich

Nasal watched from the bridge as the battlecruiser descended down to the planet. The world had been ravaged by war and destruction. Few markings of the old ecumenopolis remained. Several scattered security outposts were all that was left.

His flagship, "The Darth Nihilus", was moving into atmospheric orbit. Due to the devastation, there was nowhere suitable to land the large warship, so he had it placed above the ruins of the planet, similar to how the old Galactic Empire would position its Imperial-class Star-Destroyers over occupied worlds. Nasal resolved to placing his ship in a good strategic position above the surface, before deciding to depart with a landing convoy. The remaining soldiers he had under his command, specifically the indentured Sith-Imperial Marines, were sent in transports to seize the surviving Ession security stations. Once they radioed in their success, Vemrich began to depart.

Aboard his personal shuttle, a H-2 Executive Shuttle, embroided with the sigil of House Vemrich upon both sides of the ship, Nasal began to travel to the surface. Flanked by two Delta-class JV-7 Escort shuttles and a squadron of TIE Advanced v1's, Nasal neared the ground.

Moments later the ship landed, with the escort shuttles landing both diagonally behind the main shuttle. The fighter squadron now spread out and did sweeping patrols across a large perimeter. Lord Vemrich fastened his belt, wiped off any lint off his clothes, took a proud posture, and soon proceeded down the ship's side ramp. Behind were 4 of House Vemrich's security troopers, all clad in full maroon Duraplast armor, with their right shoulders gleaming of Beskar. They followed directly behind the Sith Lord. An additional 10 Sith-Imperial Legionaries exited the escort shuttles and formed a half-circle formation behind Vemrich and his personal guards. The Sith Lord now looked up and could see a figure making his way towards them. He was getting closer, but it didn't take long for Vemrich to solve who it was.

The presence, it was certainly him.

As he neared closer, his troops raised their blasters, but Vemrich immediately ordered them to lower their guns. He had commanded the Colonel to stay aboard the flagship as if to relieve himself of that idiotic Imperial. If only for a time.

The mysterious Sith neared closer, where Vemrich could spot his cloak fluttering behind him. Nasal stepped a few feet forward, as all of his troops remained still. He now called out to the main approaching who was only a dozen feet or so away.

"Greetings!", he shouted at the approaching figure, who seemed to be nearing a stop. Vemrich kept his posture and was ready to begin dialogue.

Once, the man would greet him back in whatever way, Vemrich would begin formally, "I am Lord Nasal Vemrich, thank you for meeting me".


Oh, how he had been looking forward to this.
