The receiving chamber of Castle Gaol was not the most welcoming places to greet an Acolyte, but it did give the best first impressions. Vex had considered taking a student for awhile now. But now that the castle was completed and she was a Sith Master, it was time to take her commitment to the Order to the next step.
For this meeting, she had come in her armor. In future encounters, she would need no such thing. She had rifled through the applicant's files. An Annfyn noble who had just come of age. Which is why she had chosen to meet him here, at her prison, instead of on her more luscious homeworld of Serenno. Nobles tended to be squeamish. They tended to not want to dirty their own hands. She needed to know he was different. Committed. Because only someone ready to dredge the most toxic wastes of the dark side was capable of being her student.
But if he passed her tests. She would make him great. @LouJoVi
