On the Holonet a live video was being streaming for anyone online to view. They would see the public square of Saleucami‘s capital in the morning hours. Hanging on several buildings were the Imperial banners and posters of Empress Andraste. Within the square itself were more than a thousand people packed together. In front of them was a metal platform covered in the color of the new empire, seated on the top were two dozen officials with various uniforms and robes.
They were situated in opposite lines split down the middle with the front containing a podium with four microphones. Behind the platform was a giant screen and with several loudspeakers on both sides. Clearly there was important ceremony taking place. Soon an Imperial officer came to the podium declared in a loud and clear voice.
“Presenting the new governor and moff of the Saleucami!”
As music played in the background, a lone figure clad in a dark suit and dome helmeted mask marched toward the platform with precision steps with the stride of a man with purpose. Walking up the stair the mysterious masked governor approached the podium as the officer step down from it. Looking out into the masses before him, he spoke in a droid like voice.
“Today is a momentous occasion not for me but for you, the people. Only recently your world was liberated by the Sith from the forces of chaos. Now Saleucami is part of the new Empire and I one of its servants am tasked to govern it. Of course many of you are probably wondering who is this outsider to be allowed this authority? Well let me introduced myself properly.”
Lifting up his dark gloved hands the Moff placed them on the helmet. Pressing a hidden button on the side, air hissed out and he removed the mask, revealing his true face for all to see. A red eye Duros of fifty five years stared back proudly at the holocam droids hovering nearby. Many people gasped among the crowd, recognizing the face of the man standing before them all.
Certain that he had their undivided attention and along with whoever was watching in the galaxy the Moff went on.
“My name is Zamid Sarlo. A month ago I resigned my post as Duro’s senator in the Galactic Republic due to tragedy. For a time I lost myself in independent space and had given up on life until some of the Empire’s members found me. They opened my eyes to a new path, one where I can still help forge a better galaxy. By doing so a man reborn stands here who has completely renounced his previous allegiances.
All in order to embrace another that welcomed him in with open arms!”
Sarlo paused, scanning one end of the crowd to the other.
“Yes it is true I’m not from this world and was never raised here. All the same your cooperation is essential, for we are all subjects to a new mighty nation, spreading across the stars as I speak! Only together we can continue Saleucami’s newfound prosperity as part of this ascending civilization. I promise the Empress and everyone here to carry out this sacred duty to best of my ability, even to my dying breath.
The new order the Sith have made is built by the strength to act for the greater good in the galaxy. Let us strive on to carry out our duties whatever it is as part of the great Empire under the Sith’s guidance. To make a future where corruption and chaos will no longer exist.”
A moment later the Durosian raised his right arm with a closed fist shouting in a loud voice full of zeal.
“All hail the Empress! All hail the New Order!”
In reaction the once so uncertain crowd joined in unison, chanting the same words their Moff had just uttered.
“ALL HAIL THE EMPRESS! ALL HAIL THE NEW ORDER!”
Whoever is watching the video would note people cheering and clapping wildy. As for Zamid Sarlo, he watched it all on enfold with approval. His eyes were blazing with iron determination. Gone forever was one of the Republic’s proud sons. Now in his place was the Sith Empire’s newest loyal servant.
