New Home - Ralltiir

[Anton Byrax]

:: Breaking from hyperspace the Invictus flanked by four Battle Cruisers moved purposefully towards the orbit of Raltiir. ::

:: The scene could have been called "awe - inspiring" as General Sever stood looking out from the Bridge viewport. hundreds of ships moved to and from the planet herded by military craft in an effort to keep order,
The massive hulk of the Hydra Star Fort hung like some carrion beast in the upper orbit of Ralltiir - coming close to completion all of its weapons systems were operational even if the vessel still looked skeletal in its appearence. ::

-"Captain, you will dock with the Hydra."-

Capt: "Of course Lord Sever."

-"Such beauty shall bring the end of days."- Sever said as much to himself as anyone else.

:: The Ships moved closer toward the external docking riggs. ::

[Anton Byrax]

:: Striding through the docking link, Sever followed closely by His Personal Guards made for the inner core of the vessel. periodically along their route Sith Troopers stood guard eyeing them silently from behind faceless visors. The Gore red heavy Power Armour of Severs Guards - The Sith Templars - and their unusual weaponry made them seem all the more imposing. ::

:: The main control Area was a bustle of activity, the stations commander moved quickly to greet Sever and his entourage. ::

Commander: "Greetings my Lord." *Bowing deeply* "Iam glad you have come to inspect our progress - infact we have reached a new milstone in this stations creation. ::

-"Then if you would be so kind....."- Severs tone was almost mocking.

Commander: "Of course, we now have all systems operational although further construction is reqiured to have these systems working at peek efficency."

-"What of surface operations? have the rebel security forces be located? "-

Commander: "I...I believe that commander Epsilon 61 has commenced operations against the Rebels forces, although they are dug into the mountain regions and are making things difficult for us."

-"If you have to bombard their positions for orbit, then so be it. I shall retire to my quarters."-

*Then menace in Severs voice was far from subtle, the Templar Guards cracked the hafts of their force Halberds against the pristine floor as coming to attenion - causing the Commander to jump.*

[Anton Byrax]

:: The Personal Quarters of General Sever were clinical if some what simple, then again he had no need for anything more. A chair set in the centre of the room contained an array of devices and mechanical limbs, this was all he required. ::

::Sitting now the chair set to work chiming and whirring as it calibrated Sever's body, Two Templars stood inside the room facing him. Sever could not see their faces yet he knew they were surveying him. ::

:: In quiet contemplation Sever regarded the Templars armour - inscribed with Sith Runes they eminated darkness and forboding. Their was a cold comfort to his thinking. ::

:: To his right there was the door that opened into his personal training chamber, inside the remaining Templars were sparring in a ferocious manner - that would be His next port of call. :::

[Anton Byrax]

:: Entering the Chamber Sever watched His assembled guards attack and counter each other, they halted as his presense was noticed and stood too. ::

*A simple hand movement from Sever caused the Templars to take up offensive stances towards him.*

A blaze of high ex rounds ranged towards Sever from the wrist mounts of the Templars, Crouching Severs legs were like coiled springs - propelling him over his Guards heads their weapons tracked Sever, explosions erupting behind him as he ran at extreme velocity in a horizontal angle around the chambers walls.
Sever's LightSabers thrummed at the speed of his movements, he could not deflect the high Explosive rounds as the were "Designed" to defeat those who wielded LightSabers - as they exploded on impact.

Fliping from the wall Sever landed amidst his guards, Dodging sweeps from the Templars Force Halberds and parrying others - Sever grabbed the closet Templar with his leg swinging the hapless guard into the far wall where he clattered to the ground as a mass of armour.
Severs Sabers were a blur, the tips of the blade simply touching and scoring marks into the Templars Armour which would have constituted Death blows.

A Templar leaped forward with a driving, double handed strike - Kicking out Sever hit the Guard full in the chest, the power was enough to shatter the Templars breast plate sending him tumbling into the last Guard.

-"You are improving, but not as quickly as i had hoped. Perhaps some more modifications are in order."-

Those Templars that were able stand did so and bowed towards General Sever.

[Anton Byrax]

:: Severs period of rest came to an end as The Hyrdas Commander was admitted into the chamber by the Guards. ::

Commander: "Lord Sever, your Transport shuttle awaits to take you to the surface. We have initiated spoardic bombardment of Rebel Positions and are pushing them deeper into the mountains."

-"Very well, in order to make sure of our success in this matter we must exterminate the rebels. I advise you to equip several squardrons of bombers with chemical weaponry."-

Commander: My Lord that would cause an untold number of casualties in the surrounding popoulation centres."

-"The region is remote, and those losses will be acceptable. Whatsmore it will serve as an incentive for the people of Ralltiir to obey me without question.
You should learn that lesson also. "-

Commander: "F...Forgive my ignorance General."

[Anton Byrax]

:: The shuttle entered Ralltiir's atmosphere escorted by a squadron of upgraded Sith Fighter Craft, soon they had arrived at the cities largest starport - the fighters broke off soaring into the distance as General Sever stepped out onto the landing platform.
Sith Clone Troopers marched in formation, securing the platform. Sever moved on briskly Commander E.61 was waitng for Sever in the main buildings.

Seeing Sever approach 61 snapped to attention.

61: "General, our Recon teams are searching the the rebel postions for survivours. So far it seems you plan has worked however many of the surrounding towns have also suffered casualties."

-"Your only concern should be that the Rebel force has been defeated, Where is the Administrator?"-

61: "Administrator Tash'Var is in his office over in the Goverment sector, General."

-"Lead the way."-

:: Sever, 61 and his guards enter the awaiting veichles and head for the Goverment Sector. ::

[Anton Byrax]

:: Having arrived at the offices of Ralltiir's admin sector, Sever strolls toward the door of Administrator Tash'Var.
A sith guard standing to attention moves and opens the door.::

::Without breaking his stride Sever enters, his looming form halts only a pace away from Tash'Var. the administrator - of the charigan spieces bows before the towering form of General Sever. ::

Tash: "Forgive my appearence Lord Sever, the haste of your arrival caught me unaware."

:: Sever could not careless about the appearence of his selected Administrator, his only concern was that things were falling into place. ::

-"Tell me of your progress..."-

Tash: "Well General, the fortifications have been installed and the factories have been converted to produce the wargear you requested.
We have all of the on planet specialists working on the various projects - we are also bringing in off world specialists for the items that are likely to be difficult to produce."

-" Very well i shall inspect the factories soon."-

Tash:"I might add that we have a number of prototype troop transports awaiting to under go trials at the moment, perhaps you would like to observe?"

-"I shall observe the trials, for now i will retire."-

[Anton Byrax]

::: Standing inside the viewing chamber, Sever was joined by the Administrator Tash'Var, Commander E.61 and a host of other officers. :::

:: The training grounds sprawling out before them had various activities underway, Firing ranges, Drill Squares, unarmed combat training and the like.
Sitting over on the Right a squadron of the new AS-90 Medium Assault Gunships.:::

Tash: "The new Gunships are about to take part in a live fire exercise perhaps you would view the action from onboard?"

-"I have another idea, according to my Information the citizens of Sector Omega staged an uprising less than a week ago, is that correct?"-

Tash: "Ah ...yes i believe so General, However it was halted before it managed to gather any momentum."

-"If one sector should rise against us then others are likely to follow suit, i will not suffer insurgent attacks is that clear? The training is cancelled - the Gunships Shall take a company of troops and raze Sector Omega to the ground. I will join them and "observe" "-

::: Tash'Var looked visably shaken as they group made their way onto the landing pad. :::

::Sever and his Guards embarked upon the lead Gunship. Hearing the orders for their new assignment come through - the Pilots whooped the chorus "Yes! General Sir!" :::

[Anton Byrax]

:::The Gunships swooped over Sector Omega, buffeted by the warm thermals rising from burning Habitation Towers struck by the prelim artillery strke.:::

::: At each of the Side doors on the AS-90 Gunships there was high out-put heavy blaster placments spitting death into the scambling crowds on the streets below. Occaisonally Sith Troopers awaiting the disembark would snap-fire into the fleeing citizens.:::

-"Kill them all, level the sector. This place shall be the site of my new headQuarters."-

::: Breaking off to return to the Admin Sector, Sever's Gunship roared over the scene below as Sith Troopers marched through the streets killing anything that moved. :::
