*Stennos, a little known planet in the outer rim. Few nav-computers even had it listed which was the way Sable liked it. The tall gargoyle-like inhabitants were suitable for slave labor and their planet had many unique mineral deposits. She learned early that as long as one did not bother their idol they were easy to deal with. Sable sat in the command chamber of the small facility she had here watching Essex and Amira directing the miners. Soon she would have enough and would leave this planet for another year or more. Quadran Ore was rarely needed but there was no stronger metal. It made for perfect armor, there would be a Sith Lord or two wanting new armor soon enough, Sable needed to be ready.*

*As Selae traveled back from Ankus, she felt a disturbance coming from another region in the Outer Rim. It was a familiar presence. The name was on her lips though she didn't speak it aloud. This woman had hunted her down and caught her off guard several times. It was time to return the 'favor'. Changing the course heading, she began to enter the coordinates for Stennos. It suited Sable perfectly. Oh, she wondered how the Sith Witch would take how well her 'friend' was doing. It brought a smile to Selae's face as she closed her eyes and entered into a deep meditation in preparation for the meeting.*

*As the containers of ore were loaded onto the cargo tenders the pilot droids were quick to take off and depart the planet. They would return after dropping off their load at Sable's main base at Dromond Kaas. Much of the activity was handled by Essex and Amira who was demanding to be called Kyra, a delusion that Essex found typical for the meatbags that the Mistress worked on. Sable sat on the plush room on a mat on the floor, her usual rainment was placed on the desk, though she wasn't completely nude she might as well been. Her focus was turned well inward, traveling deeply into the Darkside, well beyond what most ever went, the Spirits, demons is a better name, stayed well away from her, they knew her aura and knew she could bind them to her devices. They feared her. Like a desolate heartbeat the energies of the Darkside pulsed from her rythmically. This was her strong point, she was intimate with the Darkside and that made her powerful. What she sought today was knowledge nearly lost but the Darksphere that sat on the floor before her provided her a touchstone to focus on. She would find what she sought.*

*She comes out of hyperspace outside the planet and opens her eyes. She could feel Sable down below her. There was such a strong amount of dark energy coming from this planet and it had to be centered around her. She moved into the orbit and then the atmosphere of the planet taking care to stay out of sensor range of the facility. Finding a spot a short distance away from them, she set the ship down and stepped out upon the planet's surface.*
"Come out come out where ever you are, Sable. It's time to play with Selae."
*She chuckled at her comment made under her breath and made her way towards the facility stopping only to observe the droids and personnel loading the ships carefully. Should she kill them or should she sneak in? Decisions, decisions.*

*Like a skilled angler Sable was patient. Even as she floated amidst the darkside she remained aware that it was a specific 'fish' she was hunting. Other spirits slipped past that on another day she would have joyfully caught and called it a good day. Finally she felt it approach, unlike the others this one was a predator of these waters it did not fear any for it believed in its delusion of invulnerability. Sable disabused it of that notion. She struck like trapdoor spider sinking in her 'hooks' and pulled. The spirit shrieked and fought, trying to burn away Sable's mind, winnow away her control but Sable remained steadfast. She withdrew through the mired layers of the Darkside returning to the waking world with the spirit in tow. Finally she returned to her flesh with a handful of darkness. This with words as ancient as the Sith people She bound it with Will and Word to the flawless Stygium crystal that lay before her. The Darksphere was a perfect repository. Even as the last binding went into place she sagged to the floor nearly spent.*

*She saw the droids leave and only two persons left. Selae knew once they were aware of her in the facility, that they would come to the aide of their mistress. She wanted to speak to her alone first. Moving as quietly as she can, she approaches the hangar and waits in the shadows watching them for a moment waiting for her right time to slip past them.*

-Selae has little difficulty slipping past the personel, though seeing 'herself' having an argument with an droid of unknown construction did cause her to have to wait. Eventually however access to the inner facility is achieved-
*Sable lays back on the floor resting gathering herself and her wits about her. The old ones are hard to pull free of the Darkness, harder still will be dredging from its memories the information Sable wanted. She needed to know where IT was and this was the only way to find out. It would be interesting to say the least.*

*The security wasn't tight but adequate for this type of facility. Pulling out her ion blaster, she aims it at the first security camera shooting at it and frying it's circuits before slipping around the corner and moving further into the facility. Approaching another turn in the corridor, she sees a security camera guarded and moving back and forth. These types usually have blaster protection on them. Timing her moves perfectly, she pulls out her security kit and runs towards the door as it is facing the other way. Working her nimble fingers quickly, she hacks into the system and slips into the security room. Guards turn around and she pulls out her lightsaber. The snap hiss of the blade fills the room as she smirks at them. Sending a wave of Force towards them, they slam into the bulkheads and fall to the ground unconcious. It was then that she hacked into the security system closing the blast doors to try to shut out her little minions and to locate Sable.*

-Selae has little difficulty in her goals, The facility was never meant to be high security. Sable is on the top floor according to the computers.-
*Above Sable feels something, her senses are muted from her recent efforts. She trusts the faint feeling and rises as best she can, she places the Darksphere into a wall safe built just for it. She would not risk that falling into anyones hands.*

*She smirks and moves to the door slipping out of it and heading for the nearest lift. Keeping her lightsaber on her belt but hand ready to draw it, she raises her head up as the lift slowly takes her up to the top floor. Once it is at the top floor, she steps out and looks around listening carefully for any personnel heading down the halls.*

*The entire top floor is one room, decorated in a cross between Asian and Moorish, opulence is the byword, sumptious draperies hide the wall, standing screens with scenes from various worlds, wooden furnature carved by masters. It all fits Sable. She is hidden from Selae by a series of standing screens but she can feel her well enough. At this range Sable can now sense Selae. She smiles slightly*
"Is it time for your checkup already? My where does the time go?"
*Her words are light and her demeanor blithe but she is far from comfortable with Selae here especially since all of her little toys are on her side of the screen.*

*She walks further into the room looking around at its lavish furnishings and then back at the screen separating the two of them. She wants to grab the damn thing and throw it aside but holds back. Sable had helped her more than she even knew.*
"A checkup? Hardly."
*She pulls her gloves off and stuffs them in her utility belt as she moves to one of the furnishings and wipes a finger over it to see how much dust had collected. It would tell her how often this place was inhabited.*
"I could sense you a mile away. There's darkness here that isn't your own..."

*There is a slight rime of dust but not alot. Sable walks languidly from behind the screen, her garment little more then a brief slip over her unmentionable areas. She smiles at Selae*
"Does that bother you? That I might have found another place where the darkside is strong?"
*She smiles at Selae and does her best to look casual as she tries to get to her robes, cape and more importantly her bracer and whip before Selae realizes they're under her robes*

*She pulls out her blaster quickly pointing it at Sable while tilting her head and smirking evily at her.*
"Why don't we have a little seat and talk for a moment. You won't need those things...not yet at least."

*Sable spreads her hands and shrugs*
"If you wish to keep me nearly nude I suppose I can abide with your wishes for now. Afterall what kind of hostess would I be if I did not cater to my guests desires?"
*She favors Selae with a smile. Her demeanor so relaxed and at ease it would almost be enough to convince the average listener it was Sable that was in charge.*
