Vex had only heard of Voss in old holos she frequently skimmed in the Archives. She never imagined she would visit it. But with her symptoms worsening, she had no choice but to go. The nightmares she had been experiencing since her fight with the vault Guardian were becoming more frequent, more lucid, and more debilitating. The Empress had given her a job: build a prison to house the Empire's worst enemies. She couldn't do that while she constantly fought demons in her own mind. And she couldn't risk going insane. That, she imagined, would go quite poorly for the mask of Nahri Nalju (though it might briefly make good for public sympathy).
Since armor was not allowed on the sacred paths of the Voss, Vex had opted for discreet dark robes with a cavernous hood. For good measure, she kept the scarf that came with it up around the lower half of her face, so that only the glittering crimson of her eyes were visible. She had also taken care to remove any identifying jewelry, and to style her hair differently. Her companion for this pilgrimage was a fellow Sith, but even they must not know her true identity.
"Remember," Vex said quietly as they marched within a loosening crowd of pilgrams marching up the forest path. "Don't do anything to insult their customs. No weapons, if you can help it." She kept her own lightsaber off and in separate pieces on either side of her utility belt. "The second you see a path that would allow us to ditch these pilgrims for the woods, alert me."
As much as Vex would like to see the great Shrine of Healing, she had other intentions for this planet. The Light rituals the Voss Mystics practiced were useless to her. If she wanted to find something to cure her nightmares, she would have find the legendary and reviled Dark Heart. And she suspected that would take time and a lot of patience. @Altaris
