Summary
Aaric Etherall Tritum, a member of House Mecetti and the Mecrosa Order, has sworn vengeance against House Pelagia for his mother's death. After his Knighthood, he is called back to the Tapani Sector to take part in the Mecettian High Lord's plans to attack and bring down House Pelagia.Summary
Earlier, House Mecetti had sent an envoy to Pelagon, the homeworld of House Pelagia and proposed a peace treaty that would see all Pelagian systems handed over to House Mecetti with the exception of the Pelagon system in exchange for a cessation of hostilities. In addition, Aaric Tritum is to be wed to the Pelagian high lord's neice. The Pelagian High Lord has reluctantly agreed to the terms and the signing ceremony is to be conducted in the citadel of Pelagar, the capital city of their home planet of Pelagon.
Unfortunately, The treaty is a false pretense and will serve as a ruse for a strike team of House Mecetti forces (disguised as delegates) to bypass Pelagon defences and lead up to a full scale invasion of the planet. At the end of the day, the desired outcome would be To kill the Pelagian High Lord, hold his niece and the entire city hostage and to sign a new treaty that will see House Pelagia not entirely wiped out but effectively crippled for many years to come.
********************************
Background:
House Pelagia and Mecetti are two of seven houses that exist within the Tapani Sector and are sworn enemies. The former historically had families strong in the force and thus had ties to the Jedi Order. House Mecetti had been linked to the Sith via the marriage of one of their high lords to Viscountess Mireya of Vjun and her creation of the Mecrosa Order; a Sith sect of spies and assassins.Background:
At the time of Palpatine's Galactic Empire, Palpatine had his forces wiped out the Jedi bloodlines and greatly weakened House Pelagia. This resulted in the other Houses banding with House Mecetti and nearly destroying House Pelagia. Currently, the Pelagia Province consists only of Pelagon and two other systems.
Since then, House Pelagia had begun a secret rearmament program to bolster their forces with secret support of their allied houses. However, House Mecetti has also been doing the same while being able to keep to their lavish lifestyles.

His mother's house he hated even more for abandoning her and casting her out when the tryst came to light. When his mother is executed for treason in front of his very eyes, he swore vengeance on his father and House Pelagia for as long as he lived. High Lord Tritum XI, fearing for his life, wanted to execute him. But his wife, Vicountess Mireya of Vjun chose to freeze him in carbonite instead. Skills:Thus, Aaric was kept on ice for four millenia and was only recently unfrozen by the current reigning Mecetti high lord in 156ABY. Though his father was long gone, House Pelagia still remained.

However, as the next-in-line to succeed High Lord Regis, she was unable to leave the Tapani Sector to train in the Federation's Jedi Academy. After much negotiation, it was agreed that a Master would be sent over to Pelagon to train her in the Jedi arts while she continued her studies to be the next leader of her House.

Setting
Pelagon (Planet) | Pelagar (Capital City) |
It was an oceanic planet of warm waters and a pleasant climate which made it an attractive site for the early colonists who came to the planet nearly 13,000 BBY. The colonists gathered raw materials from surrounding ore-rich worlds and built huge platforms above the waterline where great cities, called seascapes, were erected. Some of these artificial landmasses were kilometers across and at the height of Pelagia's influence were over 20 in number. With the help of House Mecetti the Galactic Empire destroyed all but two of these platforms during the Jedi purge and downfall of House Pelagia. Pelagon's capital city of Pelagar was situated on the largest of these surviving platforms and spanned over 20 kilometers. By the time of the Battle of Hoth, four additional platforms had been re-built from salvaging parts from the other platforms. At the bottom of the oceans of Pelagon there were ancient ruins that pre-dated the arrival of the colonists. As part of House Pelagia's secretive reconstruction and build-up program these constructions were utilized to build research stations, storage depots and hideouts. Prior to the devastation of the planet by the Empire and House Mecetti, the planet's oceans were full of life ranging from plants and fish to giant aquatic reptilians. The contaminants released into the ocean from the bombing of the platforms and the wreckages of hundreds of starships resulted in approximately 90% extinction of aquatic species. The Capital City of Pelagon is Pelagar. | 
 Pelagar is the Capital city and home of House Pelagia. It's size is comparable to the Naboo city of Theed and it is surrounded by thick and high walls that surround it's perimeter. A recent addition to the city's defenses is a shield that covers the entire city. The shield generator is found in the House Pelagia citadel located at the center of the city. The citadel houses the High Lord of House Pelagia and his family, as well as providing a work space for the Privy Council to deal with the House's day to day running. The shield generator is located in the center of two spires of which is protected by elite House guards. During the ceremony, Jedi Master Gralin Therix will be tasked with defending the shield generator while the treaty ceremony is ongoing. |
