Aimless

[Lilith (8th TL)]

Having escaped from under the thumb of Darth Victress, Lilith, formally known as Cait, went on a journey. She had wanted to resist the Dark Side. She fled from her master's grip, left before rejoining the Sith Order and avoided all the influences that lead to corruption.

Yet... still she heard the whispers of the Dark Side as she slept, still she heard the whispers wandering down quiet streets, still she heard the whispers looking into the eyes of those unknowingly touched by it.

The voices were overwhelming.

Beckoning.

Tempting.

It took time, but she eventually understood that the Dark Side's grip on her was absolute. There was no escape from it, and so she returned to Korriban to understand it. To understand why it's claws were dug so deeply into her soul that it became part of her. If she could not escape it, she would understand it. She would become one with it and devote her life to it.

Though she still held Darth Victresses lightsaber in her hand, she wore Sith armor that covered her from head to toe. No one could recognized her in it... and even if she took her helmet off, they likely wouldn't still. Her once blue eyes were now a corrupted yellow, her skin paler than snow. The Dark Side had taken it's toll on her. It had made her into a creature of it.

She found herself deep in the desert wastelands of Korriban. She didn't know why exactly. It... felt like something was pulling her here, even though she had been wandering hours, seemingly aimlessly.

[The Eternal (?)]

Someone had encroached on the Eternal's territory and it already watched her every step. It kept it's presence hidden, choosing not to reveal itself as it inspected the woman more. The armor she wore and the stench of the Dark Side clung to her, easily marking her as a Sith. The woman wandered aimlessly, not even appearing to care for her surroundings as she ventured deeper into the wastes of Korriban. But something was different about her, she seemed amiss, like a part of her was missing and just a gaping hole. It intrigued the mask, the Dark Side emitting from her peaking it's interest while also seeing the opportunity to manipulate like it always did. The Eternal slithered through the shadows and to the Sith, the whispers picking up in intensity.

As Lillith walked through the rocks she could see the caves that were formed in the walls or along rockfaces, the shadows seeming to have eyes themselves as she could feel the air grow thicker. The whispers she heard would return, undecipherable as always to the ones who didn't wear the mask but still audible. The air would become still as she continued forward, able to see particles of sand floating in the air in front of her eyes and feel the heat from the sun start to lessen. But then Lillith would hear a rumbling, it deep and coming from the guts of the planet until it would become louder and louder and make the ground start to shake. The skies would start to blacken like the clouds and sun were becoming corrupted, turning black as the ink spilled across the sky and blocked out the light. It was all-consuming darkness that drained the warmth from everything it came across.

The darkness that nestled in the caves and tunnels in the rock formations start to spill out, spreading out like webs across the rocks and consuming them as well. Lillith wouldn't be able to see anything past ten feet of her, the space around her providing the only visible light. She would then feel a presence, something vile and inhumanly cold, something that didn't regard life or had single care for it. It floated around her as a wraith in the darkness and out of sight, it's invisible gaze piercing into her and Lillith allowed to experience it. "Yooou reeeek of... tuurrmoooiilll... Whhyy aarrreee yooouu heeerrreee?" Even to the Eternal, it was like someone had placed a steak right in front of a salivating animal and asking it to keep to itself. But even with its desire to consume, it was still curious, something had brought her to it and it wondered if it was just the Eternal's or presence or if she was just truly wandering.
