It had been years since the Kiliks announced their invasion of the galaxy from the governor's halls. The interceding civil war, and following war of the killiks against the galaxy at large, claimed countless live. Ruusan had been reduced to a pile of rubble and bones, a sad testament to the Joined who fanatically died for their hive mind ruler and to those who resisted and were obliterated. Their mission risked joining the fates of these corpses, now festering in the soil beneath the planet's surface. If they were not careful, specific, and particular in getting their prey
Vossari eased the group's Patrol Craft out of hyperspace and into Ruusan's gravity well. Scanners didn't show a defensive fleet of any kind. It seemed the killiks really had retreated - perhaps merely to the surface world itself. Perhaps deeper. Perhaps the killiks were all around them already! Now that was a scary thought.
Vossari was already feeling paranoid, chills wracking their body with fear. They wore their now-standard environmental suit, complete with an oversized orange hoodie on top. Their helmet sat strewn in the hall of the ship, allowing their long braids to drift down their shoulders. They smiled nervously at the group, brown eyes flecked with doubt: They were with two other acolytes sent by that beautiful psychopath Azar on this mission. And they knew scarcely little about each other. They couldn't help but admit their interest in this mission was, in part, motivated by an interest in the Sith Potionmaster. Perhaps this, too, was another test - just as Saleucami had been.
The patrol craft entered into atmosphere, slipping towards a massive stretch of caves in a forest filled with craters. The site of an orbital bombardment, no doubt. Vossari knew little about the customs or habits or even the biology of killiks. They felt totally unprepared. "This should be really easy, so let's just wing it and have a good time, yeah?" They spun to the other two acolytes, briefly handing controls to the autopilot. "Y'all...know anything about killiks?"
