Ellora, such a tumultuous planet. Nestled in the depths of the unknown regions of sector space, a world that throughout the annuls of time had once been a seat of an Ancient Jedi Temple, later laid waste to, by the Sith. A sequence of events that seemed to repeat itself over the centuries and millennia as if it were as normal a sequence as the changing of the seasons. Now however, the world had been ravaged by time, centuries of an everlasting storm eroding away any pockets of civilisation, leaving it much of a barren husk on the outside as what could be seen on the likes of Korriban and Mustafar.
The planet had long since reverted back to its dark, desolate state, ridden with continuous lighting storms, that would blacken the skies with its thick clouds, the only light to touch the planet's surface, being the bright flashes of arching electricity that thunderously cascaded along the cloud line. The Air was thick with the corruption of the darkside, the local fauna and flora twisted into predatory and poisonous states. For those who aimlessly found themselves making planet fall, they would feel as if all hope was lost - Such a fitting place to bring a Jedi.
Pacing along the flag stone flooring slabs, the Sith Lord, Darth Ceryx purposefully made her way into the anti chamber where she was due to brief two Sith that she had selected for a particular task that she had in mind. A Jedi, master no less had been captured through the paid off efforts of a band of mercenary thugs, whilst initially there was two Jedi, a Master and a Padawan. The lack of resources and the ineptitude of the mercenaries to keep the Jedi sufficiently sedated, had resulted in the Padawan escaping. With any chance of recovery of the missing Padawan being cut short due to the hinderance of a Turncoat within the Order's ranks, wasting their time long enough to allow for security Forces to drop out of hyperspace and assault the Mercenary's outpost.
Still not to count victories short, a captured Jedi is nothing to scoff at, especially one that interestingly enough had already given indication to the Sith Lord that she was susceptible to the Darkside - Rather than simply ending the Jedi, the opportunity of turning the Zeltron Jedi to the Darkside would prove to be more beneficial. Contained within the depths of the stone structure, the Zeltron was left shackled in a dark lightless chamber, with only the sound of dripping water, the distant rumbles of thunder and the ever draining presence of the Darkside for company.
Prior to leaving the Jedi to become accustomed to her new surroundings, the Sith Lord had poured through the Jedi's essence, finding a rich vein of sorrow, regret and a rooted sense of failure. Something that whilst initially would have piqued her interest at first, it would almost be a surprise if the Jedi had not been holding onto such emotions, after all if the various reports were anything to go by, given the recent events and failures of Jedi Order that attacked the Sith outpost on Sullust, whilst leaving the Jedi Temple world of Ajan Kloss unguarded and open to attack - ideal elements to work from to break the Jedi's grip on the Light and allow her to see the truth of the Force.
Stepping into the anti chamber, Darth Ceryx nodded to the Sith she had gathered, Darth Malica and Morgan. Two of the Sith ranks that would be ideally suited to help draw and bring to the surface the deeply rooted seeds of the Darkside that the Jedi Master had tried ever so hard to suppress. "Thank you both for indulging my request" Ceryx spoke out, as she lowered her hood to reveal her features. "We have here an opportunity to open the eyes of a Jedi Master to the truth of the Force, something that I know from experience she harbours deep within her. I Have requested your assistance here to help our Jedi Guest here to realise" Ceryx continued, as she looked in turn to each of the two Sith. "Each of us here, have our own specialities, and each in turn we shall draw out Nykoria Tallis' true potential. However it would go without saying, we seek only to break her fledgling grasp to the Lightside, not her body and mind"
"Only once she has let go to the failures of the Jedi teachings, then she can be made anew and a powerful asset to the restoring the natural order of the Galaxy"
