Transmitted to all Sith. Open to Sith reactions or counter-challenges
The transmission would be broadcast to the entirety of the Sith Order and begin with a woman dressed in black robes. Her face was covered, but most would already be familiar with the woman behind the mask.
Sith of the Eternal Order, with the death of Lord Vyrassu, our Order is left bereft of its leading expert on the mysteries of the Force, she began. The "Force" was never her preferred term for the Shadow, but it was the one that most of the Order both recognized and accepted.
I don't need to inform any of you of the power of the darkness or the value of the techniques that can be both designed and discovered at the hands of a master alchemist, she said. She had devoted her life to studying magick of the Nightsister variety and had even unlocked many of the secrets of Sith alchemy and magic.
Without such a master on the Council, the Order loses its potency, and I refuse to allow the Order to remain in a weakened state, she said, and it wasn't simply empty words. Her interests were in the strength of the Sith, and she believed her actions would lead to a Sith territory that was stronger and more secure. Her efforts to defend Sith territory time and again were evidence of that.
As such, I, Darth Andruil, intend to claim the Council's empty seat as my own and guide the Order in its investigations into the arcane arts of the Dark Side, she said. It was the entire intent of this broadcast to the Order. It was a challenge to others. It was a declaration of power and superiority. It was the way of the Sith.
I assure you that my resolve is unwavering. I will continue to secure our territories and protect what is the rightful property of the Sith order. To those who doubt me, prove your strength and challenge me. To the rest, stay attuned to the darkness. It is our strength, she said.
The message came to an end, and the Sith Lord who delivered it smiled behind her mask. She had brought death and curses upon the enemies of the Sith, and that was only the beginning. True power - that unobtainable, ever-elusive prize that every Sith sought - was one step closer to her grasp.
