Not once had he complained about the Korriban heat. Even as dull as it was, Ylandis found himself thankful for the opportunity to rebuild the temple, to modernize it, even if so much of its history had been lost. The fragmented pieces of sandstone etched with archaic runes and designs no longer fazed him as he assisted in loading them onto hovertrucks. Even lifting the large pieces with telekinesis wasn’t too bad; in due time, a greater monument would stand. In due time, a greater testament to the Dark Side would stand.
As he sat, legs tucked under him as he rested in one of the popup tents that housed a canteen, Ylandis couldn’t think about how strange his predicament was. Months ago, he would have felt that the very notion of him doing slave labor was beneath him, at least until he had seen the Supreme Leader leading the movement herself. He had certainly been entrapped by her devotion, now believing that no matter their station, the Sith had to come together if they were to survive. And despite the constant plays for power that the Lords were known for, he felt strangely at peace.
He was by no means the strongest Sith, but he was a rather skilled assassin. His grey outlook, however, separated him from many of his brethren: Rather than demonize the Light side, he strangely sympathized with it. Here he was, hating the Jedi who simply followed another form of the almighty, driving power that kept their very galaxy together. It made little sense, how the zealots of either side drove them to war, particularly when they very well may have accomplished more as one.
The teenager rolled his eyes; he was getting philosophical again, and he hadn’t the time for it. Soon, he would have to return to work; his next assignment wasn’t on Korriban though. Eventually, it would lead him back there, but with such a big project ahead of them, the Sith needed assistance in securing goods. Thus was the fate of the assassin: Forgoing his specialty for the greater good.
Strangely, Ylandis felt rather valiant. He couldn’t hide the smile on his face, even as he sipped on his Bantha milkshake, clutching onto one of the long couch's satin pillows.
