The red zabrak had never visited the homeworld of the other half of his species, he had come from Irodia, the ancestral home of his kind, this was a foreign place to him, and one that he frankly never had wished to have to visit. He closed his eyes as he gently exhaled, the red of his lit spice-lined cigara creating a small plume of white smoke that floated away from him into the air. A good smoke helped him in times like this it felt like, calmed his nerves, made him relax a bit more. Certainly, those were traits he could use at the moment as he found himself on the rather desolate looking and ominous planet. There was something about this place, something that crawled up his skin almost and stroked the hairs on the back of his neck. Was someone whispering to him? It certainly felt like it sometimes, especially as he stood in the shadow of his freighter, the red moonlight dousing the planet in a myriad of black and red. He could feel it in his bones, there was something here, something old, something without a name that now watched him.
Athir took another puff of his cigara, his eyes closing once again. Where was his contact?
He had been waiting here for hours now, standing outside his Halo-class Transport, Otho II, looking over a small clearing atop a cliff that looked out over the wild and savage red lands of Dathomir. He had landed in a easily visible spot, anyone flying in this area would see his ship or pick up his signal on their radar, and yet, nothing. Instead, the only company he had was the eerie red moon that seemed oh so similar to his own red skin. Indeed, the black tattoos all over his body almost felt alive on this strange and alien world, as if the very air made them move. The smuggler had originally chosen black full-body tattoos in mocking of his family's traditional markings, graceful white, but now on this planet, they seemed to carry a secondary and more sinister purpose.
Still, he stood there looking over the valleys and plains, waiting.
Waiting for something to happen.
