For the past couple of weeks I been digging into the myth of Sith Holocrons, only to discover they didn't exist among our Order; only the Jedi possessed the knowledge to create them. Naturally, this didn't set well in my sour stomach. If I was to learn the knowledge to create my holocron, and in turn teach the Sith, I needed a Jedi's mind to torment and rip the knowledge from. Looking at the star map, I began to compile my list of where Jedi might be stationed to lend aid to the suffering. I wasn't looking to cause an all out galactic incident, so a lone and isolated Jedi would be required. Also, I needed a Jedi that actually knew how to create a holocron; which would be my greatest obstacle.
A few days later, with a ship fully supplied and my itinerary methodically thought out, I left the Sith outpost on Akuria. Hitting space after breaking through the planet's thermosphere, I entered the navigational coordinates for the planet of Kashyyyk, and braced for the jump into hyperspace.
Using a stolen Republic ship's transponder code, I was able to gain access to the forest world. Since I was here on a important endeavor, attracting unwanted attention to myself could only set me back. Using my skills in alchemy, I utilized the ability known as
Mask to hide the apparent Dark Side corruption on my face, while slightly changing my appearance. Then to further to conceal my identity, I swapped out my tattered robes for ordinary green and white robes, carefully hiding my hilt from plain sight; and lastly adding my mechanized spring action device that held my poisoned daggers to each of my forearms.
I exited the ship, paid the proper docking fee grudgingly, then headed into the nearby trading outpost. Despite all the Republic's efforts, Kashyyyk was riddled in heart warming suffering. I spotted a few troops here and there, but no Jedi; but I could sense in the Force there was one nearby. Being a Vahla, I radiated the Dark Side naturally, but that would mean to the Jedi I was a Sith; so it was not required of me to mask my presence or alignment in the Force, but will need to explain that I wasn't Sith. Besides, my plan was to reveal to the Jedi I was on a pilgrimage until time to reveal my exact nature.
I allowed the Force to draw me to the Jedi, who in turn she was drawn to me where we stood near a medical tent. "You shall go no further, Sith," the young and much shorter Jedi said. Raising my hands to show I was harmless, I answered, "No...no. I'm no Sith...I'm a Vahla and you will since the Dark Side in me. But I assure you, I do not embrace it or the Force."
"I sense the Dark Side is strong in you, and you claim you're not Sith. I find that hard to believe."
"If you allow me to explain my species," I nodded to the right side of my outfit where a satchel dangled.
"I will allow you time to explain. But do not attempt to deceive me."
Preparation is key and vital to the success of one's adventures. I produced a datapad and tossed it to the Jedi. When she concluded reading the text, she tossed it back to me. "You should be more careful when entering outposts where Jedi reside. Now, Vahla, who are you and why are you here on Kashyyyk?"
"My name is Kario Effio...and I'm on a pilgrimage of knowledge."
"What sort of pilgrimage?"
"I haven't eaten yet....perhaps you'll join me for dinner and I will explain. In fact, you might be able to help me."
