Ask A Song Of Silence

[Sol Kenuk]

The silence of the stars was deafening. The darkness of the void was akin to drowning beneath dark waves. The hiss of the shuttle appears to be the Sith's only companion in these final and fleeting moments of lucidity. All that he felt was rage, an uncontrolled and burning fury akin to the hellish fires of damnation. It's a bitter feeling, something that contrasts the ice of the Dark Side so harshly, and yet compliments it all the same. Sol doesn't look back, doesn't care. He would not be a pawn in the games of the Force, he would forge his own path through blood and rage.

The air in the shuttle's cabin feels as if it is choking him, but Sol had never been a man to make decisions in halfs. He had always given missions and quests his all, every part of him, even if it meant leaving some of himself behind. It seemed that this would be no different. Sol had left his strongholds behind, empty and abandoned, and soon, he would cross the borders of Imperial Space, and into the void beyond.

[Caelian]

Ah, the fresh air of Elrood was just what the doctor ordered after their recent mission. There was still much to be done, both inside and out of the manor he recently acquired. A small droid was busy at work pulling sheets from old furniture that had been left undisturbed for some time, a job he was happy to leave it. Outside was still a mess and overgrown, but that was something that Caelian would handle himself.

The hard manual labour was good for the bones and took the Echani most of the day to clear away the weeds, nests and the lawns mown. With the backyard a bit more manageable now, there would be room for Caelian to lay the foundation for a small workshop that he could complete work in away from normal life.

A strange text message arrived from his friend Sol, a nonsensical string of words that didn't make any sense but to the man who sent them. The reply went unanswered, stirring concern and determining that he should at least check in on the Kel'dor in case something was wrong.

Sol had a laboratory on the world that he would visit first, a short speeder bike trip over, he hoped, would alleviate these concerns but upon arriving, there was little to dispel this.
