THEME
Ziost. A world as cold and as brutal as the Sith themselves, or at least it sure felt that way. Trodai was wearing extra furs and layers to keep extra warm, and yet enough that he wasn't attracting too much attention. In truth he hadn't been back here in years, not since his Massassi Akoge in his early youth, it appeared not much had changed a whole lot. He didn't like it much with the cold weather, having now gotten used to Korriban heat.
He was here to see another goal of Darth Arcanos through, as he continued to keep his promises. Despite what Trael or Vossari thought about him on a personal level, none could deny he was loyal or that he was devoted to Azar. That he was not quite the liability they took him for initially, his more recent successes upon Korriban and Dromund Kaas proved that much. And with each success he grew ever stronger even managing to restore his physical appearance into something that perhaps even Darth Arcanos could admire again. His tall muscular frame now crimson again and no longer a husk. And yet despite it there was concern. Azar was different, he had changed ever since the bombing and since he was forced to kill Karys, his own husband. But Trodai understood why it needed to be done, that Karys death was up of his own making and that Azar was likely in pain from the loss.
When he and first heard there had been a initial shock, he hadn't expected it. But it did prove something. That Azar was everything he thought he was, everything he loved. That he was strong and he knew he would endure even if Trodai had to be a little more cautious around the man just in case. For now though he would assist with finishing what Karys was unable to in life. And take Ziost for Azar and for the Sith.
And that started with this. With attempting to sneak into the Ziost Orbital Defence Command Centre (Z.O.D.C.C) and disabling the defences to allow for the Sith forces to takeover. Trodai had looked over the blueprints. The building was a fortress. Made up of government buildings on the planet, a military headquarters and a governor's residence. It was said to be virtually impenetrable, and was heavily fortified and at one point was considered the most secure facility on-world. He was about to see how true that statement was.
With him was his former master, Caerllion who had been assigned to assist.
It would fall to them both just like old times to sneak in and do the job. To be fair, he was glad it was him...Caerllion was one of the few people he could truly consider calling an ally among the Sith. Besides Azar. Trodai planned the attack for days and only now enacted it. They had spent the past week ambushing supply runs and buying off suppliers before poisoning the food and sending it on it's way. A way to weaken and drain the enemy while Sorcerers sowed paranoia and distrust in the mind, to make the operatives inside more susceptible to the cold and hypothermia. And ripe for a surprise attack they could not see, disoriented, drained and tired as they would be. A snow blizzard was used to mask not just their own but the approach of the Sith forces.
As they got closer, Trodai kept as low as his bulky form would allow and found rather surprisingly his trick had worked as had the raiding of the supply lines, when he noted how sluggish the enemy was. Within the blizzard, he was camouflaged as he approached the first perimeter, sneaking up upon a enemy guarding the wall, sneaking up he climbed over and split the man's throat before unceremoniously using the Force to chuck the body over the other side and bury it in snow and ice. He continued to sneak around the perimeter, disposing of any he encountered along the way until the coast was clear.
Signalling to Caerllion, Trodai let him know to make his own approach over the wall and towards the security office. Hopefully to disable any cameras, automated security measures and other such measures to make it easy pickings for the rest of the allied forces as the Sadow enemy forces were caught in a surprise attack as they were left freezing, starving, disoriented, open and exposed.
He sent a telepathic message "Up to you now old friend."
