Loyalty Never Dies.
End of an Age
Prologue
[img]http://ezboards.homestead.com/files/forcepike2.jpg[/img]

The time had finally come. The abolishment of what had been built for something more grand. Diete Somir had planned carefully for the events which were already set in motion. His Empire would now grow into an Empire of true fashion. He would serve the New Order in the best way that he could, by serving it directly.

He would not give up the ways of a Sith. That would be like asking one to give up their body from the neck down. No, he was Sith and always would be. However, it was time for the meaning of that to change.

In the old days, in the Golden Age, the Sith needed an absolute ruler. It was customary for a Dark Lord to rule the Empire without question. It was a needed step.. in those days.

Now, however, things were quite different. Now the Sith needed to band together. The Sith no longer needed a Dark Lord at the helm. What they needed, was to work with one another and not against themselves. Maim saw no other way to accomplish this than to abolish the title Dark Lord of the Sith, for all time. He would, as Lord Bane had done, rewrite the ways of the Sith.

If there was ever to be unity among the Sith, they must band together. Maim saw no better way than to unite the leaders of each faction of Sith in a grand Galactic Council. From the seats of that council would come the unity of the Sith. From it's leaders would come strength and power.

Together there was nothing they could not defeat.

Together, they would be unstoppable.

Just outside the doors, however, the commander found that later came sooner than expected. Four Noghri warriors tore the man to shreds before a single sound could be uttered.

.. and justice was served.

Standing silent and at attention, Royal Guardsmen Silk awaited the Grand Master for further instruction.
Back even with the wall, at rigid attention, Silk remained impassive. Almost a statue, he was so unmoving.
Crimson cape draped around him, face hidden behind the helm of the Guard. He held tight to his Force Glaive beneath the cape. Stationary but able to respond at a moments notice.
Traditionally garbed and armed, Silk was totally indistinct from the other guardsmen, except to the trained eye.
Standing at silent attention, he waited...

Sovereign Protector and Royal Guard commander, Kir Kanos, stepped silently into the Council Chambers. A death black cloak flowed around him as paused in the doorway. He wore his ceremonial dress armor for this occasion. It was pure black with crimson trimming.

The helm of his rank hid his face and expression from view. His halt came just before Dioan Silk.

"Guardsman Silk, status report." came the voice over a communications unit mounted within his helm.

"Have our guests yet arrived?"

A quick salute and nod, Silk snapped to attention before Protector Kanos.

"No arrivals yet, Sir. All is clear here, ready and waiting."

Placing one hand behind his back, the other holding the Force Glaive at an angle, Silk questioned of his commander...

"Further orders, Sir?"

Silk was bound for the higher ranks of the Royal Gaud, and he knew it. Every opportunity he had, was taken to prove himself worth it.

"When they do arrive, this room is to be cleared of all occupants. You will stand guard at the door and allow only the Prince Regent, Grand Master Jax, The Mistress Athena, and the guests of the Regent to enter. Understood?"

"As commanded Sir."

Crimson cape fluttering, he stepped back to watch the entrance.

The best among the best, Silk needed no further instruction. His was to follow orders to death, if that was the case.

Dyans Rann, Lord of the Sith, walked down the hallway past the many Sovereign Protectors standing silently on watch. A small cadre of two Royal Guards followed him, sent by the Dark Lord bring him to the meeting. The two Royal Guardsmen took up posts at the door as Lord Rann entered the council chambers.

Though unmoving, Guardsman Silk noted the arrival of the Sith Lord.
The Chamber had been cleared, as per his commanders orders. The lone welcome occupants those of the Royal Guard or the Sith.

His mask hid a look of distain, but he remained silent. Instead he just tracked the motions of this new arrival with the other few present in the Council Chamber.
