The Frozen North
A grey sky, almost as indigo as the billowing robes of the tiny Sith Mistress loomed over the mountaintops. Snowflakes scattered the air and caught onto the woman's fur-trimmed hood. The tiny, hopelessly delicate objects were but specks of fragile beauty amidst a gigantic and fearsome scape. As the young Sith Master was but a fleeting shadow subtly existing among Gods of War. She was water, clear, transparent, shapeless, but powerful. Dexterous and clever enough to mold her way through any space, and when trapped, she would always find a new path. Before her ferocious tsunami crushed and engulfed her sister, Satsuki, there were further strings to pull.
So what was Satoryu doing on the pig people's planet? Years ago, when she had been but 20, a mysterious and fearsome individual had joined the then Crusader in butchering a gang of would-be rapists on Fondor. It had been an encounter as miraculous as the Black Queen herself appearing in Dreshdae. Satsuki's death would be but a tiny step towards extinguishing the Light from the Empire. The man on Fonder was the key to curing the Sith Order of its' current plague. A legend of war not seen in decades, the greatest Juggernaut since Exodeus himself.
Varek.
By his actions on Fonder alone, Satoryu had already guessed that the two of them had something in common. Demons in their pasts black as the Dark Side itself. The young woman on Fonder had grown considerably in the past four years, it was something Satoryu seemed to never stop doing. A silent kind of evil now was she, subtly influencing her monstrous counterparts such as Varek and Audroti behind a silk screen. The kind who, but with nought but the subtle flicker of her wrist had condemned her own sister to a brutal, horrific death, before thoroughly enjoying watching it. Like any good lady, she would allow her monster the killing blow, for the stage of this era belonged to men like Audroti and Varek.
After they departed on Fonder, Satoryu had delved into searching for Darth Vires. Between the daily life of a Sith Master, she had eventually traced him to the Hutt World of Gamorr. Her studies had further revealed that Gamorr was the location of a Mandalorian sect. Whether Varek had anything to do with the business of the Mandalorians was unclear, but all would be revealed in due time. There was a winding, but conveniently flat road twisting between the mountains of Gamorr's Northern hemisphere, it's enviroment frozen tundra. The scenery was very similar to the Massassi worlds of Ziost and Khar Delba, which Satoryu had travelled to back in Imperial space. She had slowly grown accustomed to the cold and did enjoy natural environments.
The ship was not far away, but Satoryu would have to depart on foot for the rest of the way towards her destination. The Imperial agents she had travelled with had briefed her on the location, as well as advised her not to call the Gamorreans "pig people" to their faces. Her robes were a dark indigo, as to keep her blended in with the scenery. She wore leather gloves and gauntlets over her hadajuban sleeves and a short, fur lined tunic over her robes. For the sake of practicality, her hair hair was worn in long plaits which hung over her shoulders.
Gloved hand constantly stroking the hilt of her saberstaff, the increasing feeling of being watched was lingering over Satoryu. She was instinctively paranoid, but another presence was growing as she walked further along. It would make her quest rather easy if it was Varek stalking her, but Satoryu knew things were never that simple. Unfortunately her greatest weakness had got the better of her and she had consumed an entire pot of tea before leaving the ship. The presence seemed to be far enough away, so the 5'2" killer figured she might as well rest before it came any closer.
"I really, really hope nothing bad happens to me while I'm taking a piss."
Making her way off the road and into the forest, Satoryu found a convenient slope located behind a thick array of bushes. Untying her loose pants underneath her juban and robe, she pulled down the traditional garment, squatted and relieved herself on the snow. As excellent as her favourite beverage was for ones' concentration and reflexes, there was not a lot of her to contain much of it. Once she had finished and dressed herself, Satoryu walked through the throng of trees and back towards the road, before stopping dead in her tracks. A foot gently moved forward in the snow as she cautiously grasped the trunk of a tree. She had stopped to rest for not a minute and had presently been caught.
"Stupid pig people!"
Satoryu was not alone.
