Kneeling inside the ruins of an ancient temple, now many years in ruin, on a unnamed planet I found myself praying to the Dark Side. My mind, always unstable and unpredictable, was reeling from recent events. The Sth, who I never truly harboured love for, was going through radical changes; but it was changes I wasn't quite sure of. Rather than carelessly tossing my proverbial hat into the ring, I had chosen a self-imposed exile, or vacation if a more fitting word fits, to reflect on my destiny. My recent path had somewhat been muddied, and the time to wipe away the filth from directly in front of me was drawing closer and closer.
But I needed a plan of action, a purpose from which to begin haunting the galaxy once more. I never had many allies within the Sith Order, and since my unannounced departure to exile myself, I was quite sure I stood as a lone Sith among the wretched and weak souls of the galaxy.
Snapping my eyes open, the Dark Side had gave me the answers I sought. Rising from my position, I pulled my tattered robes across my frame, called to my hand my hilt, and strolled toward the exit as I reacquainted my weapon to it's resting place on my side. The bright light from the orange sun assaulted my eyes, a painful reminder of how long I spent in these darkened ruins. I needed to get off this backwater planet, and since I had no ship of my own; I needed to "borrow" a mode of transportation. And the Force had pointed me in the direction of a camp site off to my left.
I entered the scavenger's camp, counting six individuals going about their daily routine. When they saw me, I could feel their edginess radiating off them through the Force; and soon that feeling would turn to fear. I withdrew my weapon, turning all twelve eyes to the boned creation I called Slayer of the Innocence that laid dormant in my hand. With a gentle caress of my thumb, I ignited my blade sending the ashen, black blade into existence. How long had it been since I used my weapon? A lifetime it seemed. But I never forgot how to use it.
