A Shadow Jedi knows no fear he told himself as he stood ominously over the palace of Yinchorr. It was enormous, reminding him almost of the twenty mile long Rogue Imperial Palace on Despayre, where he would have much rather done combat with the fool should it escalate to that level.
Somir reminded him of a dark plague, one with which held no true meaning other than to wipe out life, life that had done no wrong other than existed and not bowed to his whim. And even thus...sometimes when they did bow to his whim...he would punish them anyway.
As he approached the palace, the two guards confronted him immediately. They strafed the door and criss crossed their weapons to prevent the emperor from entering.
"What business have you on Yinchorr?" they barked evilly, their expressions unseen under their helms.
"I am Emperor Fearsons of the Rogue Empire, Shadow Jedi Master, and have been invited here by Diete Somir," he explained in his most demanding voice, which did little to intimidate the guards -- and after what they must put up with all the time it did not surprise him -- yet they did waver slightly.
"Yes sir," the one to the right agreed and made sure the gate was opened. He narrowed his eyes as he entered slowly.
It was like a sudden sickness washed over the emperor, he was cold...his skin tingling painfully as if a thousand needles pierced his flesh. His stomach churned with nausea, and he knew this to be the Dark Side. The true Dark Side. This was where the Dark Lord of the Sith resided.
"Come out!" he screamed, using the Force to amplify his voice throughout the great palace. There was no response to him but his echo coming back to greet him and another shot of wind bellowing at his cloak.
"Come out now!" he screamed again. He stood in silence save for the howls of the wind for several moments before he heard her mental cry.
Help me... Arai told him. This sent a new wave of grief through the man's body, her pain was ten fold in himself and he nearly dropped to one knee, but used the Force to supress his pained emotions.
I will find you Arai he assured her, and wiped away a tear.
"Where are you Somir?"
