Darth Traya
Lady of the Sith, the Saarai-Kaar, the Dark Sun
Apprentice Dimir, for ease of access and to better accompany your pace we shall resume a good portion of training within this thread. Deadlines will be much more lenient, I shall remind you of tasks but won’t enforce strict one week deadlines. I shall still teach you of the group, and it’s inner machinations, but I believe this environment shall nurture your style. However, your highly encouraged to keep exploring the Facebook aspect of the Empire and will be rewarded for further efforts.
At the end of each task, I’ll update your prestige. In your signature of the forum, please note your current prestige score and note myself as your Master. This is an educational request to all apprentices on the forum from Lady Hesper.
Task dating Jan 4
“Lesson of Fundamental Combat”
Sorgan. An unremarkable backwater world of wetlands and krill farmers. There was no nexus of Darkside energy here; as there was on Dathomir and the Malachor system, no technological wonders as on Hapes, no tragic pasts as on the Miraluka colonies. This world Illium had chosen as one of her seats of power because it was nothing. Utterly unremarkable, possessing only a few footprints of a long dead Imperial presence and nothing more. A simple world where one could live in primitive harmony; in tune to the environment. Where she could rest momentarily from the rigors of the Councils and the joint throne of Dathomir and Hapes.
But the Miraluka was never one to completely discard her work. A few days of rest were in order, but the only peace Illium truly knew was while she trained another. She bid her apprentice Reagenaye Dimir to accompany her to Sorgan. Illium chose a nondescript thatched hut for them to rest within a day before calling her apprentice out to meet her in a duel training circle, a patch of land beaten into a rough circle by the trampling of many feet, the grass slick and thick with mud.
Illium stood relieved of her crown, a crimson cloth concealed the emptiness of her eye sockets. She wore red painted rancor leather armor, hair swept back in a loose braid. She spoke softly, her tone firm yet inviting.
“Come forth Dimir, you shall train in the art of the duel against me. But I shall restrict my power to that of an apprentice, we learn to fight fairly first ...before we learn to kill. You disappointed me in your last task...however I shall spare punishment so long as you fight me now without holding back. But first...tell me...in what circumstances would a priestess need to fight? Why is combat important even to one whose existence is rooted in faith?”
