Inquisitor Varex, status report, Omai Rhen's voice echoed in his head, the Grand Marshal's natural talent and years of experience only modestly compensating for his species' lack of innate telepathic aptitude, Master Raaf has located a suitable breach point.
The Vaemath Jedi Knight's pointed blade bisected a slavering ravager. A hydraulically empowered boot lashed out, adding enough force to Varex's own supernaturally enhanced strength to kick straight through another as it sought to take advantage of his blades' over-extension.
My arrival will be temporarily delayed, he effortlessly cast his thoughts into Master Rhen's mind, It would appear this General Teth has a talent for making new friends.
Having ruthlessly dispatched the last of the Sithspawn in his immediate vicinity, the Knight Varex looked on in approval as the rest of his team of Shadows cleared the last of the bunkers housing enemy artillery in their immediate vicinity. With any luck, their efforts would have considerably reduced the bombardment on [member="Aryn Teth"] and the rest of the Twenty Sixth's position. But their work was for from over, for while his Inquisitors and their allies had wreaked much destruction upon Byss' conventional weaponry, they still had to contend with threats of a more abominable nature, twisted mutations cursed by dark Sith magic.
Flyers, another Shadow cast her thoughts wide enough for the rest of them to hear it. None of them would speak aloud until after the battle was won, some not even then.
Varex had already seen them. A wave of wyverns was now closing in on the GADF's improvised fortifications, preparing to hurl bio plasma projectiles on the Alliance soldiers from their tails. Emerging from the now smoking bunker at an unnatural sprint that bordered on gallop, with a running leap the Jedi Knight's power suit carried him high into the air. The first Sithspawn creature never even saw him coming, his kyber emitter gauntlets sliced clean through its monstrous mass of flesh before he had even reached the zenith of his jump.
A perfectly timed trajectory brought him crashing into another of the mutated flyers just as he began to plummet back to the surface, and the Vaemath's massive armored fists overpowered the panicked thing, before snapping tendon and bone in what passed for the wyvern's neck region. Whatever damage he had inflicted was at least enough to send it hurtling towards the earth like a stone. Boosting himself off the falling corpse, the Inquisitor slashed through two others on his way down.
The force of impact sent a jolt throughout his body, but between Varex's suit and Jedi training he was able to absorb most of the damage. Banshee cries filled his ears, and the Shadow knew that he had finally gained their attention. He whirled back around to see a whole pack of Sithspawn had broken off from the group now beginning to pummel the General's strong point and were headed straight for him. Just as as they had planned.
Joining the others in summoning all his willpower, each Inquisitor unleashed a wave of Force Light, catching the entire host of mutated flyers in a sort of mystic crossfire. With each of them working together on an exercise they had drilled so many times before as a part of their repertoire, the combined energy was enough to incinerate the wyverns in radiant flames, cooking through their flesh and disintegrating their bodies.
General Teth, Jedi Shadows approaching from behind enemy lines.
