As he had promised to his Master months ago, Wilhelm had been successful in being the only student of his class to finish the semester with the highest GPA. He has spent days studying constantly, without time to do barely anything else except occasional Sith training. The rewards that he would receive for all this effort would compensate for the tiredness that he felt.
Indeed, they did. As it was tradition for the best students of the Academy, the Acolyte was invited to meet with the Chancellor in his office. It was the greatest opportunity that the boy had to start seeking influence inside the Republic. If he could impress the man, he would have a brighter future inside the military in front of him. It would greatly facilitate whatever plans his Master had.
When Wilhelm arrived at the Republic Executive Building, Wilhelm was welcomed by the Senate Guard and they escorted the boy toward the Chancellor’s office. He used his opportunity to study the place. The Acolyte had read many things about this place, even when he still lived in Eriadu. The Tarkin family had many stories about this building during the time of the Old Galactic Republic, some of them even worked here as Senators.
Once they arrived in front of the Chancellor’s office, one of the guards entered the room to tell the politician that the boy had arrived. While he was confident most of the time, Wilhelm was a bit apprehensive for this meeting. If anything went wrong during it, his Master’s plans could be destroyed.
While he waited to be allowed to enter, Wilhelm reflected about the Chancellor, Alexander Xerxes. He had been recently elected, being the Senator of Hynestia before it. His first actions were to ban the Jedi from the Republic and make peace with the Sith Empire, both actions that the media considered very controversial. Due to that, the boy was very curious to meet this man.
