Brelin nodded as each spoke, contemplating each of their conclusions separately. He was truly astonished by the level of knowledge each of these acolytes held, though of course, he did not show it for enlarging an already huge ego on a sith was never a good thing. Still, he did note that these acolytes did provide hope that not all Sith were hopeless barbarians who would amount to nothing more than mindless killers and pitiful brutes. The Crusader held the belief that these Sith would be the future of the Empire, if only they could put aside their egos for the greater evil. That was something that was not easily taught, but Brelin did his best to implant in their minds that it is far better to have the empire as a friend than an enemy, despite the fact that Sith were superior on every level. Still, now was not the time for Brelin to contemplate philosophies in his head. No, he had to attend his students and their conclusions on how best to deal with the sad excuse for a Jedi.

In truth, Brelin pitied the Cathar, he felt truly sad for his condition, but not his physical condition. No, it was simply the fact that the Cathar would have much more success if he had been part of the Sith. The Jedi was in peak physical condition, would have made a fine Sith Warrior, especially adding the fact that he was able to resist even the strongest of physical and mental punishment. It was a sad sight, indeed, to see such potential lost. The Sith Crusader never understood people's attraction to the Jedi, they were weak, pathetic, and a scourge that had spread across the galaxy. Still, even in the Jedi there were those who held potential, just as even in the Sith there were those even weaker than the Jedi.

"All of the answers are acceptable" Brelin finally said, speaking underneath the cloth that covered his face, though the clarity of his voice seemed unaffected by the object. He turned to the young girl and the Mon Calamari "You two seem to share similar answers and, despite the Keshiri's worries, they are good ones. Now, I say this because if everything goes according to plan, he will tell us what we want, and if things get...... messy......... we will simply incapacitate him and kill the girl. The shame will be unbearable, and it will drive him to hate. For a while he will cease communications, but eventually he'll begin lashing out in anger, drawing on the dark side to power himself. Eventually, he will be too far gone for the Jedi and he'll know. He'll see his mistakes and he'll join us, thus telling us what we want."

Brelin then turned once more to the prisoner, staring at him. Indeed, the Cathar would make a great Sith Warrior, perhaps a good servant as well. "That is not to say, however" the Crusader began once more, turning to the Keshiri "That your idea is not sound, for it is. The problem is that Cathar's have heightened sense, and a Jedi Cathar is a master at playing a glorified game of hide and seek. Thus there is a chance he might lose or discover our spies, and even if he does not do so there is only a slight chance that he'll go to where we want him to go." Brelin paused for a second, letting his teachings sink in before speaking once more "Still, it is a good backup plan."

Brelin paused once more, this time turning to his whole class before continuing. "Well, this is the end of class, but I do have an offer for those willing to stay and hear it. If not, you are dismissed." he said, nodding to the class.

Avreet found himself disagreeing with the Keshiri's idea. Allowing the prisoner to escape was easier to be said than done. Considering they were on Korriban, the probability of the Cathar escaping without running into a Sith seemed very low. While the Jedi would be able to defeat an Acolyte and possibly hide himself from the higher ranked Sith, there was nothing to make him lead the Sith where they wanted. The Cathar could hide himself or kill his pursuers, or simply decide to charge into the Sith Academy in a murderous spree. Jedi were like that, show them the flag of the Sith Empire and they'll keep charging at it.

Acolyte Satoryu had a similiar idea as Avreet, which surprised him. Did it mean they weren't that different, after all? Brelin agreed with them both, and even said what would most likely happen if the Jedi refused to speak. Avreet didn't consider that option before, but there was truth in the Crusader's words. Truly, the Jedi were known for sacrificing others for their own cause, so it had to be expected the Jedi was a heartless monster who'd watch the weaker one get tortured and killed because of him, only to get angry after he realized more lives were going to follow. How many lives was he willing to sacrifice? One? Two? Ten? Thousand? All that had to be done then was to tell him if he felt hate and anger towards his captors. Prove the Jedi they fell to the dark side and they will join the Sith. Pathetic. No wonder the Alliance fell when it's protectors have proven to be nothing more than a bunch of weak willed hypocrites.

What truly piqued Avreet's interest was when the Crusader ended the class, but offered them to stay were they interested in his offer. Naturally, Avreet decided to stay, not passing an opportunity to gain new experience and learn more from someone more experienced. "Thank you for the class, Crusader Niko. I'll be delighted to hear your offer."

Jaron nodded once Brelin was finished giving him the miniature lecture, filing the information away for further use - after all, one could not simply base every strategy on what faction their opponent stood with, but also had to take into account some of the basic skills their species might have as well.

"I, too, would be interested to hear what you might say," the Keshiri said, in response to Brelin's mention of an offer. After all, for somebody so new to the galaxy overall - let alone just the Sith - any experience or knowledge he might obtain would be useful.

The class was short and sweet, the Acolytes had debated and practised the art of subtlety. Satoryu did not disagree with Jaron's idea, releasing the prisoner, then following him had its merits. Of course, they ran the risk of bring tricked by him themselves. She did not realize it when she had said it, but her idea was indeed similar to Avreet's. He was a patriot, she was an anarchist, he was honourable, she was deceitful, but they both shared the ability to channel their emotions efficiently.

"I would be very interested to hear your offer, Crusader Brelin."

In truth, Sato's idea was only what the class had dictated she say, it was what she would resort to if she had to restrain herself. She would have loved to do unspeakable things to that prisoner, whether he spoke or not was irrelevant. It was unprofessional, yes, but Sith were not supposed to adhere to morals or standards as the Jedi did. Use your passions, and every so often, give in to them completely. It was all so perfectly hideous and logical.

Brelin smirked as each and every acolyte in his class had reported to hear the proposition that he had to offer. He waited until they approached him closely before finally speaking. "I'm glad you're all willing to hear me out" he said in a smooth, suave voice that was not unlike his regular one, except now it seemed to have a little spice to it, what it was is unknown, but it was there. Brelin grinned widely before speaking again, he was truly going to enjoy this.

"The mission is simple, honestly." he said as he turned once more to the prisoner. Yes, the Cathar would make an excellent Sith. He then turned back to the acolytes, with the same wide grin he had before. "I want a female Cathar" he said plainly, letting the request hang in the air before continuing.

"Whether you work together to find one, or against each other, I don't care as long as it gets done. It's as simple as that. I don't even want a specific Cathar, any will do so long as they're female." he said, now staring directly at the group of acolytes with his default, stone face. "Understood?"

Each of the Acolytes decided to stay and listen to the Crusader's plan. Honestly, Avreet didn't expect him to request what he did, a female Cathar. It looked like they were going to do with the plan of breaking the Cathar with a female of his species, either to make him talk or to make him fall. Maybe both. "I understand, Crusader," he acknowledged knowing what he had to do. The amphibious teenager was willing to carry out the mission, even though he knew the Cathar of his choosing was going to suffer a terrible fate. That made him wonder where to find a female Cathar. The Mon Calamari didn't want to needlessly waste an innocent life if there was a better option, so looking for one in a prison was a fine idea.

Looking at the other two Acolytes, he considered whether to share his idea or not, but it was worth a try. Maybe they had a better idea. "I suggest contacting the prison facilities on Cathar and ask them if they have a Cathar female. I am sure they will have more than a few, so they won't miss one. Of course, we could try finding one such fine specimen in closer prisons, but their homeworld is bound to have one." The Mon Calamari explained what he had in mind and looked around to find a terminal. The Sith Masters and Crusaders often requested a prisoner transfer to Korriban, whether to have someone expendable to help their apprentices in practicing their combat skills, or for an interrogation.

"I've little problem with that plan," Jaron said, after a moment of thought. "I'd certainly rather get our Cathar from a prison, than try to subdue and kidnap one, or anything such as that."

Brelin smirked, they were thinking, for once they were actually thinking. "Capture that Cathar however you wish. I care not for the means, just the ends." he said with a simple nod, as he walked away into the distance. He hoped these acolytes would be able to get a Cathar he wanted, it would help a lot in the conversion of the Jedi and he had a lot of plans for the Jedi. Terrible plans, of course, as he was Sith, but plans nonetheless.

"Let's do it then," the teenager said and walked up to a suspicious machine attached to a wall. His webbed hand reached to the terminal, touching the screen and bringing up a menu. After a while of navigating through it and finding the option, he requested a connection to the biggest prison on Cathar and looked at the various prisoners. Several thousands of results had shown up, but he didn't have time to go through all of them, so his clawed finger touched a small icon on the right side of a monitor. That allowed him to filter the results very effectively, so Avreet selected he wanted Cathar females with ages ranging from 10 - 20. The young Acolyte thought it would increase the chance of picking someone who looked fairly innocent, allowing them to break the Cathar Jedi more easily by blaming him for hurting such an innocence.

Now searching only through dozens of entries, he decided to pick three to have enough persuation material in case the Jedi resisted. One Cathar woman, or a girl to be precise, had only 14 years and was sent to prison for stealing. The other two Cathars were older by a few years, their freedom also taken away for thievery. The Mon Calamari then put in his Master's name and let the terminal identify him as Grima's apprentice, allowing him to finally send the request. Since none of the Cathars would be missed (by the Empire, at least), someone the other side of the machine accepted the request almost immediately.

It would take about an hour for the prisoners to arrive in a transport, but if the Sith were lucky, the Cathars would be sent through one of the Sith transports going to Korriban, which had several privileges and didn't have to stop if patrolling ships requested it.

"And now we wait," Jaron said, crossing his arms. He turned, eyeing Sato for a moment (surprised she hadn't spoken up), before turning back to Avreet. "In the interests of providing a somewhat helpful diversion, what do either of you say to the thought of a visit to the library? It'll certainly pass the time, even if nothing we find proves remotely helpful for anything we're doing now."
