Xaren was proud of their work, proud to have helped his master as well, also just prideful enough to touch a somewhat sore subject as they turned to leave. *Sigh* "Yes master, but how much longer must we report to the Dark Lord? Surely you are strong enough to take his place now?"

Just as soon as he'd spoken Xaren wished he hadn't they'd gone over this before and he knew his master didn't care to argue.

Mordren stopped cold, and was silent a moment. The young sith could feel a ripple of anger come from his master. The masked face turned to eye him.

"Darth Lyciades's position is not my concern, Xaren. The man saved me, and taught me all I know. He is fit for a Dark Council position. I do not want a leadership position. I seek war, and combat." he said, his tone cold, almost insulted.

**CrimsonVagabond** · April 18th, 2015, 04:17 AM

Xaren would have done best to leave the subject but he tried one last piece of logic. "B-but Master, if you weren't so loyal you'd be on the council by now, and plunging the galaxy in a greater more intense war than the Empire is capable of imagining...Surely it is the highest sith principle to dispose of a weaker leader?"

The cathar held his breath, hoping he hadn't pushed too far out of line.

The boy felt the force close around his throat, as he was drug closer to the darth.

"The same sith principle that led the Dread Masters to betray the empire, in a bid to destroy it and the republic both? The same sith principle that lost us the war with the republic, that we only managed to salvage because of the chaos of the dread masters? The same sith principle that Lyciades and Marr are trying to circumvent in order to save our empire from annihilation?" he questioned him in aggrivation.

"The only Sith principle that truly matters is "For the Empire." Sitting on a council throne will net nothing for the empire. It will only cut off one of the heads trying to keep it from eating its own tail."

**CrimsonVagabond** · April 18th, 2015, 04:48 AM

Xaren had never heard his master go into such detail of how open to destruction The Empire was, and he reflected that his Master was ever bit the battlemaster and tactician he sometimes he forgot he was on the battlefield.

"I-I'm Sorry master, my thought were too hasty..." Xaren felt himself going faint but tried to stay conscious so as to not show weakness.

**Angel** · April 18th, 2015, 04:50 AM

The choke was released, dropping Xaren on his ass.

"By the same sith doctrine, you would seek to betray me at your earliest convenience. Which either you truly forgot, or conveniently brushed aside." he said simply, continuing to walk to the door, saying nothing further.

**CrimsonVagabond** · April 18th, 2015, 04:56 AM

"Of-of course not Master, I'll never be your equal..." But Xaren thought it best not to pursue the subject and followed his master miserably out of the court room.

Soon, the pair boarded their ship, and set off.

A heavily modified starfighter, made to comfortable host a small crew, the Radiant was home for Davros.

A Preybird class by designation, the black and red painted beauty was not one to be trifled with.

**CrimsonVagabond** · April 18th, 2015, 05:57 AM

Xaren had draped his Sith cloak about himself, so as not to enter the ship in nothing but his slave garb, but stayed silent and near his master, hoping to see him past the dark mood he had caused.

**Angel** · April 18th, 2015, 05:59 AM

The ship, set to auto-pilot, began to make its way for sith space. Removing his helmet, the pureblood shot Xaren a look. He clearly was not pleased with the boy. Heading to the communications terminal, he fired off a message to Lyciades, telling him that the hutt had been silenced successfully.
