Ord Radama, New Raido, Immigration Quarter - Lower Level... A long, long time and some months ago...
A swoop bike buzzed past what is considered as a highway at the outer edges of the maze-like city of New Raido. Its red and silver lining seeming like a blur as it zoomed past a few levels above an unsuspecting entrance to one of the complexes that made up the walls of the gigantic city spanning over most of the planets aside from a few of the remaining wetlands that did little to separate the sprawling cities of this small planet from each other. The Immigration Quarter laid at the outer edges of the capital city of this world. Likewise, it also houses most of those individuals that tend to feel at home far at the outer edge of society, such as smugglers, refugess and even the occassional hardened mercenary. As with most other buildings, those in the Immigration Quarter seem to fit in effordlessly with the confusing system of the native Devlikk species that few outsiders tend to understand properly. Yes, inside those massive walls, many of these buildings were filled with the worst of human colonist, from makeshift appartments, over shady black market shops to outright holding cells for slaves or worse.
One level of the far-most complex, while unsuspecting from the outside, was quite different. The entrance to the corridor of this specific level amongst one of the many lower levels was blocked by a massive door, after one would leave the turbolift or staircase. It consisted of a few, rather spacious apartments arranged around a central corridor. The former central corridor had been rearranged to serve as some kind of meeting room, with a large table surrounded by some chairs being the central part of the room, but also featuring chairs and couches, that might have once been part of the interior of the apartments, spread around the corridor. The walls of the corridor were aligned with many rotten pictures of a once beautiful planetscape that might had once been Ord Radama, before it was covered with city scape. The dim illumination and long shades of the furniture were a clear sign that the electrical network of this complex could have used a new maintenance run very soon. Nonetheless, the makeshift meeting room also featured a large, modern terminal that had been placed here recently, including data ports. Every now and than, a droid servant crossed through in an effort to tidy up the place.
The corridor split further into some apartment, of whom one had been converted into a mix of storage room and weapon locker with crates full of goods that were illegal in most Republic worlds. Luckily for the inhabitants, this was not a Republic world, indeed it was far from it. Yet, this condition, along with its proximity to the Hydian Way made it the most excellent staging point for one of the many hideouts that were scattered across the space of the former Sith Empire. While still barely maintained with the area that the Sith consider their homeworlds, it held sufficient resources to outfit a small army... or stage a revolution should the need arrise. The windows of the storage room, as well as any other appartment were mostly barred, as to be kept hidden from the possible onlooker from the outside. It was indeed nothing like a real military base, though the Sith Empire certainly maintains a few of those as well. The Sith Lords might not even be aware that this base exists. Yet, it currently provided quarters for those that were unlike any other military unit of the Sith. Members of the Sacred Band of Ziost.

Dalrel stood inside the central corridor of the hideout, his face illuminated by the cold, blue light of the holographic projector inside the room. The tridimensional image of the projector currently displaying the area that is currently under the safe control of the Sith Order. He brought his right hand up to the menu of the projector to increase the diplayed area to most of the known galaxy. The blue light reflecting oddly upon the thin, green skin that covered the mechanic muscles that had been implanted underneath much of his arm and even some of the more gravely, old wounds on his rips and back. He did not grimace at the slight joint of pain he felt as the mechanical muscles aligned with his biological to send the reflex for action further to his fingers. Old datapads with information about the city laid scattered around the large, central table, as well as numerous datapads filled with the reports of the recent uprising.
The Sith had recently retaken Ord Radama from the insurgents that thought they could rise against their superiors, while their attention were shifted towards the Republic and their eternal nemesis, the Jedi. Dalred had seen the report of both Devlikk and Humans fighting accross the narrow streets and being locked in sieges across various cities amongst the surface. The obvious resistance had been obliberated, yet the Sith did not want to risk another uprising amongst the populance, if it could be avoided. For this reason the Sacred Band of Ziost had sent some of their own to make sure that the cries for rebellion were calmed inside the minds of the locals. The Falleen doctor was amonst them, he had really just stayed behind as the fighting in the street ceased for the most part and arranged for his personal belongings to be delviered to the hideout. Seemingly without any particular goal in mind he inspected one of the weapons that were confiscated from the rebells.
The other weapons were still in their containers in the next room, Dalrel noted with a watchful eye. The locals would have been unable to organize and acquire so many weapons without outside asisstance. He set down on one of their more comfortable chairs, leaning back slightly while pondering the weapon in his hand. The fingers of his right hand softly cassually clicking against the metallic frame of the weapon. While sitting down he adjusted his current outfit to the new position. He wore an elegant, grey shirt along with a dark blue vest and the matching pants and boots, like many of the more affluent spacers around this part. Barely something that could be considered a uniform for a military unit, though it was simply more comfortable than anything the Sith soldiers usually wear outside of duty. His own armor was safely stored along with his other belongings in his quarters, which occupied half one of the remaining apartments. The slightly visible skin of his upper arms showed scars that almost seem have some ritualistic meaning to them, though they might have just been physical remains of those moments that he had wrangled his survival out of his opponents claws.
