Former Alliance Senator Celeste Stythani, who had been missing for quite some time, died abruptly while being held under Jedi Custody. Reports indicate a sudden, irreversible trauma to her brain. The Jedi, the only people present during the incident, have not been available for comment.

The ISC caught Celeste Stythani within its borders under suspicious circumstances. There were rumors about her returning to the Sith, and she was subsequently transferred to the Jedi. Alliance Senators reportedly met with the Jedi and the Grandmaster was quick to cut the discussions short. Not long after that, Celeste Stythani was deceased. None of the Alliance Senators were witness to the occurrence, leaving the public with many questions and speculations. There is unrest and panic across many worlds.

“We demand footage of what happened!” One Core World citizen proclaimed.

“Where was this all taking place? Why won’t the Jedi disclose the location?”

“The Jedi will try to talk their way out of this and somehow make this Celeste’s fault. Same old song and dance of how they did their best.”

“Now we’ll never know what happened!”

“Why was there no trial?! Where was the evidence?!”

This is a developing story and we would like to hear more from the Alliance Senators that had attended the meeting. We would also like to hear from the ISC and the circumstances that led to the Senator's arrest or why she had been missing.

Commander Karn was in his office inside the Imperial Security Bureau (ISB) offices on Taris and been about to sit back at the end of a long day to enjoy a drink and some soothing music, but then an alert popped. The intelligence-division of the ISB actively monitored the HoloNet News for broadcasts and reports where known Sith were being mentioned. --Sith Champion: Celeste Stythani-- was one of Levik's file dossiers and thus the alert had been redirected to him.

His eyes opened a little bit wider -surprise most likely- when he read the news report's transcript. "That explains why they never officially reached out to me for the actual evidence." he realized, being somewhat impressed with the Jedi that they actually performed a summary execution without the senator's ridiculous claims for them to personally see and judge all the evidence the Empire had collected on Celeste Stythani for years.

The framing in this article was bad, though. They killed a known Sith and someone who had massacred innocents after being trained by Sith that were known to massacre entire planets. The galaxy -and the news agency- should rejoiche over her death. Then, Commander Karn sighed and added the transcript to the dossier before closing it. -Subject Deceased-

He wasn't going to supply the Jedi Order with the evidence. The warmaster probably wouldn't even let him and the director might outright demote him if he tried. This framing on the Jedi Order, who held a considerable territory close to Imperial worlds -and thus possessed way more military might- was beneficial for their own plans.

Aezzairrfhowrrhudrrl distracted himself from the painful news of Celeste's death by focusing his rage on the Holonet sharing the news with the galaxy. "...How does the Holonet suddenly know all of these details?" During the private meeting with a few FWA Senators and a representative from the ISB, the Jedi had gone to great lengths to keep Celeste's location under wraps; but apparently specific details surrounding her death- right down to the alleged cause of death- had been leaked. Aezzairrfhowrrhudrrl immediately ruled out the Jedi Order as the source of the information, given the damning tone of the article, which left... the ISB? Another FWA Senator? But no- none of them had been privy to the details which were now being shared publicly.

It just didn't make sense. And despite his previous anger at her, Celeste's death hurt. Aezzairrfhowrrhudrrl threw his remote across the room as more tears streamed down his face and more questions invaded his head; asking him if there was something, anything, he could've done differently during the meeting to prevent this.

Oh, Celeste...
