The halls of the Uephreli Weziwula Cathedral glistened in the horizon. The majestic web of golden monolithic towers split the heaven in two, casting a shadow upon the community that surrounded it, a cocoon of houses and streets. Among giants called skyscrappers, the Uephreli Weziwula stood in excel. Jewels embedded in the architecture bounced rays of light playfully around the cathedral.
Returning those beams back in a game of radiant tag was the reflective face of Geist Weiss, Dark Lord of the Sith, Lord of House Weiss, Regent of the New Sith Imperium, and Emperor of the Koros system, the last of which the cathedral lay dominion in, specifically the planet Empress Teta. Geist had been to the Uephreli Weziwula Cathedral once before, during the wedding between Caye Es Cade and his wife-to-be. Despite the impressive tropaion being a very important Nirvanism site and a galactic wonder, Geist hadn't stepped in the halls he was about to enter since had been little. The reason was clear, to him. The Uephreli Weziwula Cathedral was a place sacred to marriage, where vows were exchanged. When he had visited the cathedral to attend the Es Cade wedding, he had marveled the architecture it employed, and hoped he could visit once more. Now as a man, he was visiting the cathedral once more. However, this time he was not attending someone else's wedding. Today, he was presiding over it. As a noble lord, he was ordained.
The architecture was a reflection of a love between two Sith. A warrior and an assassin, one would expect their expertise to clash against one another, bitter tension. However, they managed to make it work and build something beautiful. Never had he expected love to propagate between Audroti and Satoryu, but here they were. The two were the latest additions to the Dark Council, along with Ebberla Daw. They had not yet adopted a Darth name yet, but Geist had decided to go a theatric route and christen them with new names during the wedding, to symbolize that not only are they vowing to be together, but are shedding their old lives for a new one. A few names had deluged his brain. Satoryu was an obvious choice. Darth Ryuu. The word heralded from her homeworld's native tongue. Audroti was another case. Several names appeared in his mind, including Darth Deimos and Darth Apeiron. Ultimately, though, he had chosen Darth Kovo. Well, chosen was a harsh choice. The empress had somewhat forced her opinion on him ("I am not having a Darth Ape Iron on this council."). She was probably right. It was not a name worthy of fear.
Darth Somnus was alone at first, but not for long. As he waited in the abandoned chamber, he could sense the others arriving. The ceremony, while publicized, was open to only a few. In particular, it was sequestered to only the Dark Council. Standing in the dias, the Dark Lord awaited for the bride and groom, along with the esteemed guests.
