There was a calm after the storm as the city organized itself after the takeover. Arcanos had conquered the city fairly and there were no ifs and buts about his ascension. He had the beastmasters bound to him by rite of blood so they couldn’t betray him without losing their lives. As a result, he controlled all the terentatek even if he put a proxy leader in place. Arcanos never operated without contingency plans.
It was slightly past dawn when the Sith Lord was alone in the palace courtyards. It was a perfectly manicured area, complete with a refreshing pool. Water was a luxury across Korriban, and here it existed in abundance. Plants native to the planet lined the perimeter, a courtyard made for kings.
He knew he belonged here. He had transcended beyond anything even his ancestors had accomplished and he rose above even the Kressh name. While his name as Arcanos would be forged into history, the Kressh bloodline would continue through him. Already he had countless suitors for marriage waiting on a desk, beautiful women ready to continue his bloodline that suddenly became that much more precious.
The Sith Lord took a sip from his goblet of wine, speaking without even turning to look, “It was foolish of you to risk your life like that,” He said calmly. Access to him was restricted and only a handful could find him alone in a courtyard like this anymore. Arcanos was dressed in casualwear befitting of royalty, finally turning around to face the visitor.
“Do not be so hasty with your life,” He gave a tired, but affectionate smile, “You have your own destiny to carve out.”
