Clentching Obroa-Skai, and Af'El

[Tiera-Qel]

The Hydian Way, the long rout leading from the core worlds, and into the Corporate sector held many great worlds along its path, but two of these Worlds , Dathimir, and Myrkr both held by the EbonClaws hungered for another to join them, and Tiera-Qel, Daughter, and Dark hand of the Matron Lirreka; was all to willing to provide it.
"Obroa-Skai, Not only close to our worlds, but also holder of the great library" she muses as she paces the bridge of the Living cruiser, Shadow Rapture . Along with her personal capital ship several others followed, as they came to a stop above the great world .

"The Armada has reached the Ka'Dedus system. We are preparing for planetary assault. I will hold what ground I take until reinforcements arrive or I am ordered to withdraw. Through Conflict comes Strength. Barzai Out."

** He looked over the officers that stood around the war-table. These Danthiri, men and women alike, veterans of many campaigns were not like the young troopers that stared at him with bright ready faces. No these officers looked at the table. The shifting nature of its surface formed into the terrain surrounding the chief port city of Af'el.**

"This is our primary target, the chief port. As you can see it is little more then a hole leading down into the planet. The city like all others on this planet are underground. There is no visible light there." **A few of the officers chuckled causing him to nod.** "Yes, that means they're used to people being lost and afraid in their domain. They're about to receive a rude surprise. The Armada will serve two purposes, one they will stand in orbit to ensure no vessel escapes and secondly they will serve to lure any defenders to the decoy targets. Thirty minutes after the initial attacks take place the lead elements of the Armada will bombard the primary with low yield flash missiles. Visible light blinds them. Twenty Spike ships will be dropped to form a perimeter around the Port. I stress this now, the planetary emplacements MUST be taken as intact as possible. Erien? Sodril? you will each lead a third the landing forces while I will lead the Ebonguard. After the surface installations are taken we will move in-planet. Briel? You will man the surface with the Stronghold Legion. You will harden the defenses with everything you have. We WILL hold this planet. At this time the Armada will set up in far orbit with picket ships placed at all known hyperspace vectors. I know the Jedi and Sith both possess ships capable of cloaking but we must watch as best we can. The Picket vessels will be in Silent Running mode so will likely remain unnoticed. Finally these Wraiths are reputed to be able warriors, we will take loses. Our goal here is to penetrate and hold the surface. If we can repulse the counter-attacks by the Jedi and Sith we will break them here and now. If not we will draw their forces away from the Matron's true target. Return to your commands. Through Conflict comes Strength. Live Well, Die True."
**A resounding chorus of 'Die True' is their only response as they turn and file from the command deck. Barzai turned to look out the viewports at the world below. Soon war would come to that dark orb... Soon Barzai would inflict war upon them... Soon.**

******The Battle of Af'El******

**The fury of the bombardment, the roar of the diving fighters, the thunder of the planetary emplacements firing. These are the instruments of war. Barzai orcestrates them like a master conductor. The spike ships, landing vessels consisting of heavy armor, more heavy armor and a solid prow that drives into the ground like a spike. The Top end has a quad laser cannon to lay down suppression fire to allow the troops some cover. It was intense to say the least. The Defel were indeed warriors worthy of their reputation. Though it slowed down the invasion it did enhearten the Danthiri, to fight unworthy foes was a task left to slave troops or so Danthiri thinking went. The Planetary emplacements were taken shortly before what passed as dawn on this dark world. The Stronghold Legion Got to work as the rest of the forces started into the alien planet while the armada set up in far orbit as ordered.**

******The Battle of Af'El******

**Subterranean battle, this was the strong suit of the Defel bred into them by the planet itself. Ghosts, 'Wraiths' they are called, invisible and lethal. Any army would be foolish to brace such fiends in their lair, until now. Danthiri equally at home in the dark places, with eyes capable of seeing into the infra-red and ultra-violet spectrums, equally skilled in tunnel fighting and led by a General victorious in scores of campaigns. The battle was fierce, from passage to passage, cavern to cavern, city to city. The Ebonguard lead by Barzai pushed through the Defel world like a flood. Methodical, fluid and ultimately inexorable. The final battle, in the Defel's last refuge they learned what might the Danthiri General carried. Single combat with a Jedi, one of the few outsiders on Af'El at the time of the attack. She fought with all the skill she could muster, her way in the force strong. Barzai fought with singular yet fluid determination, Mandalorian iron turned much of her sabre attacks but still the force of the blows rang true. Eventually like a mountain to the insatiable mining engines the Jedi slowed and fell to the Danthiri General. Strangely enough he permited no one else to touch her seeing to her burial personally. With his victory the last city of the Defel was taken.... Af'El became Ebonclaw territory.**

"Dalharil d'lil Ilharess, the siege of Af'El is complete. We are curently moving our forces into the city proper, and teaching them the rules of the House, Phase two of the assult is now ready; Barzai Out."
******************COMM*******************

With a bemused grin Tie turns her eyes to the lightly defended University world, no Republic fleet greeted her, which was disapointing in Tie's mind, she so longed for a good battle, however it seemed that few understood the true value of data in the Obroans' central library system..All the known knowledge of the galaxy lay within..this was going to be a ground assult, and Tie would lead it personally

[Tiera-Qel]

Moments past as if but a breath as Tiera found herself eyeing the bay doors of the drop ship, her perspective over the field as she fidgets in the saddle of her chosen mount, nearly 8 meters below her Tie watched her persoal guard line up as the doors began to open.
" FROM THE FIELD TO AN INN" she bellows as she mearly touches the deep mohogony, leathery skin of her war beat, her army moving into the chaotic city streets of Obroan city proper

The city defence forces move in to position as the Ebonclaw special task teams sweep through, their numbers overwhelming, as if a tsunami od ebon, platinum, and steel rushes at them, though intent on the defence of the Great Library the teams stood fast, that was until Tiera, mounted atop her Dathomorian Breed, Rancore emerge from the ships belly, her crimson leather argue-flex armor glistning in the sun,
Her troops cut through the line as if chasing away vaper, few ralling to the weak blaster fire provided by an ill prepaired force " To the Library" The Dark hand bellows, as a quarter of her force groups before her, the remainders scattering as solo teames to quarden off any alternate paths

Upon reaching the mainway to the great Library Tie dismounted her beast, patting its hide lovingly as she turned to the teams captian, her slight hunch of a shoulder, and arm jesture issung her unspoken command, she was to do this alone.
As she pushed the gates open, and strode through the university halls like a preditor tracing its wounded querry, she is confronted by several security droids, the last line of an already pittiful defence. Taking a moment to focus, Tie stops her progress, allowing the driods to surround her

" put your hands before you, and resist"
Tie simply smiles at this though does as requested. this triggers the droids to move closer still, unaware of her specialty in slicing and driod programing. Drawing closer still they came, and Tie remaind motionless,, her mind busy calculating programing codes, and other file breaks, her nuroemmitter transmitting it through the nervous systems, and into the slicer transmitter computer built into her glove.
Just as the first droid reached her, another of its companions turned and fired on another droid, alarmed by this programing glitch the others turned their receptors away just long enought for tie to brint the organic coral like mass at her side, the second her hand touches it it seems to grow, elongate into a two meter long pole, a metalic shreak rings in the air as a Violet blade springs forth..before the echo had returned the droids fell with her first pass..

moving lightly into the library, the Dark hand pauses, her eyes catching the massive pillars of endless information...the EbonClaws had now claimed the key to this galaxy, and its secrets, its myths, legends, its technology referances, star maps..The ebonclaws had now claimed Obroa-Skai,
