Samka Derith
Decitus Ren
Kashyyyk
If there was one thing of value the First Order's plunder of Ossus had achieved, it was access to new information. The raid on the Jedi's Great Library had amassed a substantial amount of knowledge for the agents of the First Order, most of which was only just being decrypted now. Unfortunately for the Imperials, most of the information appeared to be outdated. Secrets long since exposed, theories long since debunked and strongholds long since fallen into ruin. Even the abilities mentioned within the sacred Jedi Texts were too attuned with the Light for any known Knight of Ren to understand. However all is not lost. On Kashyyyk, the location of an ancient Jedi shrine supposedly housing a powerful Jedi Artefact was revealed. Imperial historians could find no record of its existence in the First Order's archives so an elite agent has been dispatched to the Silver Jedi capital to ascertain whether the shrine still exists and claim its riches for the glory of the Supreme Leader.That elite agent was currently basking in the sunlight. It was a bright day on the Wookiee homeworld, the kind of day Samka Derith wasn't used to. The Bastion of Ren in Virgillia held a tropical environment, it's warm climate was uncomfortably humid. The jungles here were far more pleasant, at least as far as the beaches had gone, with a cool wind giving relief if the heat became too much.
The young woman sat shaded beneath a tree on the sandy beach, taking a swig from a canister of water before reattatching it to her backpack. She wore a practical beige outdoors tunic with plenty of straps and pockets for utility. On her belt, a Lightsaber. But it was not the one she was used to.
Samka grasped the weapon's hilt, bringing it up for another inspection, something she'd already done many times this mission already. Her blade had been left at home, the crystal bled out by the Dark Side to become crimson was a sure identifier to any suspicious Jedi. So instead she held a Jedi's weapon. Robbed from one of the several she'd slain in combat. It was heavier than her own, it made her movements when practising feel more clumsy. That and the blue blade simply felt wrong. Gone too was any physical sign of her dark alignment. For Samka, a master of disguises and appearances, she didn't need artefacts to to hide her true nature and repress her Force signature. Rather, it was an ability which came naturally to her. Her skin a healthy, if still rather pale, blush and her eyes returned to their natural brown. Her hair too was brunette once more, the violet dye being a far too distinctive trait in the enemy's nest.
Speaking of, Samka looked around once more, that enemy was nowhere to be found. Not once had she encountered a Jedi since arrival. It seemed strange to her but the planet did lack modern infrastructure for plenty of its landmass and the recent assault from the Sith Empire may have crippled their security.
Either way she just had to hope it stayed that way and every last Jedi remained far away from her.
It wouldn't work out that way.
