A Matter of Gravity

[Triune]

*Lirreka has finally returned to Myrkr. There safely with that layered corderon of security and defenses she awaits the arrival of her agent and his find.*








OOC Postscript: Open thread but please at least acknowledge the system defences if you post. Thanks.

[Xais'fir]

~The small, yet easily discernable ship known by a very few as the Nightwraith, drops out of hyperspace on the edge of the Myrkyr system. The mandalorian at the helm guides the vessel towards the planet, the two beings as one, or rather three beings as the heat corona of his ship can be seen lighting up the Myrkyrian sky. Making a skillful landing the ramp lowers to admit the ship's sole crew member who quicklly makes his way towards the room he knew his boss would be waiting. The ramp closed and sealed behind him as always and after passing through countless corridors and hallways he steps into the room where Lirreka waited, the doors cycling closed behind him~

"Greetings Matron, I must thank you for sending Thorn to my rescue. Without it I'd likely still be on board the Jedi's Light with Wraith. Or on some other Jedi held location. Fortunately the Wraith is all healed up now and as for myself, well, lets just say I'll think twice about 'eating' a Jedi when I'm on a timelimit." He says offhandedly, though she'll no doubt want to know all about that in addition to the item he was sent to retrieve for her.

[Triune]

*She waves aside his thanks lightly. Smiling upon him she idly examines his armor before speaking.*

"I suspected Force-active tissue would be difficult to 'consume' for your armor and as for Thorn, she is an able member of the House and performs as her Matron expects." She smiles slighlty "Did Master Jedi Adamis serve as an acceptable host during your stay on his vessel?"

[Xais'fir]

~Was not in the least bit surprised that she already knew a good deal about what happened, since Thorn would have no doubt sent a report the moment they returned to Obroa-Skai. Though he had expected some kind of help to arrive he hadn't expected an entire battle fleet, nor an old friend of his to be leading it either and he wondered exactly how valueable and in what regard Lirr held him in~

"That it is, not to mention the fact that it hurts like Uoi'nota during and afterwards. No amount of alchohol gave me a headache anywhere near what that incident did." Realizing he was getting sidetracked Xais steps over to one of the nearby monitors to insert the datapad his armor produced, schematics for a Gravity Well generator quickly fill the screen and he turns to her. "As you can see, mission accomplished, though it wasn't easy. Also you should be glad to know that the Republic will be needing to replace quite a few support vessels, four destroyers, one repair frigate, who knows how many fighters as well as a Interdictor. It was already crippled, I thought it was best to put it out of your misery, besides, now they'll have to send out a repair fleet for the repair fleet."

~Xais laughed at that as the log and recording from the Wraith played on the next screen, the explosion of the Sentinel was nearly blinding in the recording~

[Triune]

*She chuckles at Xais' choice of words as she looks over the Schematics and the recording. She looks back to him after it plays through.*

"You cut it rather close there I see. That would explain the damage to the ship. I trust it has healed since then?"

[Xais'fir]

He nods at her question as he pulls the datapad from the monitor, having downloaded all the information it contained and returning it to his armor. "Yes he is, thankfully, Wraith was pretty seriously injured but the technists did their job well on board the Light and once he was safe at Obroa-Skai everything was alright. Oh and since you inquired about Jedi Master Adamis, I suppose he's a nice host for a Jedi but his ignorance of Ebonclaw tech wold ahve made me smack him, or attempt to anyways if he said one more thing about my...'pet' ship."

~Xais'fir viewed his ship as a friend, not a pet or slave or any other such thing, such was the bond between them, as was with his armor. A trio of beings that linked together as though they were bretheren~

"Oh yes, before I forget, I have a prototype biotech device you might be interested in taking a look at Matron." He retrieves the small circular disc roughly the size of a compact disc player and hands it to her for inspection. "That's the device I used to destroy the Sentinel, something I've been working on for a while now and finally managed to field test it. It's a demolitions device, much like permacrete but with twice the punch once it's 'eaten' enough."

[Triune]

*She arches a brow at Xais' creation and nods.*

"Very good, I am very impressed with your ability to improvise with your armor. You are proving most capable."

*She examines the device he gave her closely, hand running across it's surface lightly as she nods and sets it aside*

"You have provided me with two very important items, Xais... These Schematics will earn you double your usual payment."

[Xais'fir]

~He offers her a bow in thanks and smiles, well not that she'd notice with his armor on~

"Good to know, I have another prototype I have yet to field test, it's an upgradeable, portable personnel weapons platform. Basically a turret you can carry with you and modify it to carry, eventually, many different weapon types."

[Triune]

*she nods and takes a seat on a chair looking at him*

"It sounds an interesting piece of bio-ware and no doubt will serve you well in the field. Currently I have no other direct missions for you at this time. My trip to Ankus has given me enough to mull over for now and the materials you have already obtain need to be implemented."

[Xais'fir]

~He watches her take a seat and only after getting her consent would he sit in the chair next to hers~

"Alright then, I could use a reprieve I suppose and I haven't looked around Myrkyr in quite sometime. Aside from that, it's been a while since we talked for longer than the span of a debriefing, much less about something aside from the next target." His voice had lost its light mandalorian accent and was replaced with one much more familiar to her as he debated lowering his helm.

"And if it's all the same to you, Matron, I'd like to accompany you should you leave anytime in the near future, assuming that you do not have a more urgent task for me that is."

[Triune]

*She smiles and nods spreading out her hands*

"By all means look Myrkr over. The system has come along nicely, the defences are formitable and have thus far kept out unwanted visitors while providing a bit of trade. Your acquisition of the gravity well generator schematics will allow me to place an interdiction field to bolster the outer sentry grid making it nigh impossible for ships to enter without permission."

[Xais'fir]

~He takes a seat beside her with a nod and a faint sigh of relaxation before he turns towards her~

"So I noticed, it's kind of difficult to miss them on the way in from the system's edge. I wouldn't want to see the fleet or fleet that's bold enough to attack Myrkyr once all is said and done. And I'm glad I could provide such significant help...and cause a little destruction and mayhem in the process. Right now I'm sure the Jedi and Sith are arguing amongst one another as to why their crippled interdictor sent out a mayday saying that Sith had boarded it." A hearty and mischevious chuckles bellows from behind his helm.

[Triune]

*She chuckles softly pulling one of her legs up under her*

"I am certain if Myrkr falls it will not be to a fleet but an assassin's blade. I still am not certain the sensors will be able to find certain Jedi and presumably Sith small craft. Regardless until the Dark Emperess solidifies her control over the factious Sith I'm certain some will actually claim to have been the ones attacking the Sentinel." She grins slightly.

[Xais'fir]

~He suddenly took on the appearance of a youthful danthiri male, with rather dark skin, short platinum flocks and violet eyes, garbbed much like a regular Ebon trooper might. A frown forming on his face at her comment about assassins~

"Chances are you're right, which is not something I wish to see happen. And assassins are things I can't help guard you against if I'm out stealing everything that everyone's left out within reach of my fingers." He grins faintly at his jest but looked at her with all seriousness.

[Triune]

*She chuckles softly, leaning back in her chair as she looks to the open skylight above.*

"Assassins are what I want. Fleets are full of mindless little cogs that do their job and look no further. An assassin is the best these factions can offer, lean, lethal, sleek... if I am to slake from these nations their strengths and use them to make us stronger I must face their best slayers. There is no better method I have found of claiming a people. I must delve into the best of their darkest."
