Altair knew there would be dissent among the Sith, but he wanted to understand the psychology of soldiers that actively didn’t like the thought of Imperials at the helm. Historically, Sith drove the entire war machine on their whims and subjected trillions of people to their emotional swings. He knew the only way to prevent the extinction of the Empire was to sever ties with those that followed Sith teachings. This left him in a strange place since he himself was a Force user. However, he had aligned himself to being an Imperial for years now.
It was this genuine curiosity about the Sith supporting psychology that meant that the Warmaster himself would be meeting with a captured Lieutenant. The man was a deserter and he faced execution, but Altair wanted to get a read on him first.
The Warmaster strode through the halls of the high security prison on Raxus where the deserter was in his cell. Altair was adorned in his decorated uniform, his rank clearly displayed. The custom made attire had his personal flair in addition to being fitted around his broad, muscular frame. The tiefling’s appearance was cut and crisp, his amethyst gaze gleaming as he approached the cell.
At once, he spotted the state of attire the soldier was still in. Altair turned to one of his men, “This is unacceptable,” He said curtly, “Bring him clothing. Now.”
The soldier scrambled away quickly to get some clothing for the prisoner. The tiefling stood on the other side of the shield wall, his hands clasped behind his back. He cut an imposing figure, the four horns pronounced and his tail curling and swaying of its own accord.
“Lieutenant Dram,” He said smoothly, “I believe you were at my coronation.”
