A small detachment was arrayed, five on either side in formation, to receive a Lord of the Sith at the docking umbilicus of the Hunter class corvette Katarn as it drifted in a parking orbit above Korriban, reaching its apoapsis of a few million kilometers at 1800 hours local time. To complete one side of the rectangle stood a figure whose bulk was undeniable and not easy exaggerated, clad as he was in unornamented Sith battle armor. Aside from repairs after engagements, it was the same suit that had been ordered specially for Commander Kalladrrl. The War Master had added a simple cloak edged in a fine gold thread to his ensemble, a small distinguishing element.
There was, of course, the more important alteration.
Two hands were placed firmly on the War Master's hips, elbows out and feet just over shoulder-width apart. On his left hand was an unremarkable glove for dueling, phrik-laced to avoid easy cuts to the hand. The other hand, however, was within the icon of his authority. His guest had seen him receive it and it was at that moment Kalladrrl’s unease at the power of such a being had sublimated. They had both felt their attention and concentration on one another and the time had come for them to combine their efforts at the bequest of the Empress herself.
And so the War Master had bid the Eternal come to the warship that Kalladrrl had made his center of operation.
As he stood in silence, he couldn't help but laugh, a single, staccato bark that reverberated in the space of the hold. The ten Blackguards did not flinch or even react visibly. He had trained them well and they stood at attention, weapons on their backs. The War Master did not wear his lightsabers at his hips. They were within his chambers, but with Force and fist Kalladrrl was armed even without the blades of plasma. As would his guest be. But it wasn't about measuring power, it was a show of openness to the one he was due to receive.
He and the High Executioner had much to discuss.
