Welcome to Gaia! ::

Weeks after the fall of the Temple of the Force, three Sith Lords look back to this planet to seek a new home base. Believing that no one would dare step back into this planet unless they want to wage war, the three Sith Lords are sure they would be safe from the watchful eye of the Republice. Here, a new temple will be raised. It will be a temple of darkness, shourded by the very entity that gives the Sith their power. It will be the birthplace of a new Sith Order, one that will erase the teachings of Darth Wrath and develop a new kind of Sith!

Looking around in the blizzard, Darth Rezak follows his companion into the hole and asks, Darth Cubolla, what exactly are we going to do with these crystals, if you don't mind me asking? Taking off his main saber, he makes sure that there are no threats to them and hides his presence in the Force as he walks about the cave that Cubolla is in.

Nodding to Darth Cubolla in agreement, Rezak says, Good idea on the crystals then, I'm wondering though, should we really anticipate our numbers swelling? I'm thinking that the three of us and our apprentices should be more than capable of disrupting the Republic and their allies. Just a thought, but Darth Wrath's biggest mistake was sharing power with too many and not actually using it wisely, no?

Hearing a beep in his helmet's earpiece, he switches his commlink to emit no sound to any outsiders but instead go onto his personal frequency. Darth Ceres, do you have a status report on your assignment? I'm currently on Hoth with Cubolla attempting to repair our numbers and rebuild our temple.

"Yes my lord," the voice of Darth Ceres says, "I've completed the assignment that you've assigned me. I was wondering what we ought to do next."

"Do nothing where you currently are, Darth Ceres. I have need of you to come first to Hoth and then to our own secret base. Should any attempt to follow you to Hoth, then lose them and go to the base. When I see you here at Hoth I have to give you something, and then I will have you leave for Hades Prime. No one, not a Sith, Jedi or Ordinis must intercept you, so cloak even while landing and use the usual hyperspace routes, do you understand me?"

"Yes my lord, I will do as you wish and I will be on Hoth shortly."

"Good, I look forward to seeing you then, Darth Rezak out."

Looking to Darth Cubolla and then to the blizzard surrounding them, Darth Rezak smiles behind his black mask.

((What do you guys think of the new sigi? Gaian-friend drew it for me.))

Smiling behind his mask, Darth Rezak says to Cubolla I suppose so, anyways, let's see where we ought to put the new base.

De-activating his speaker system, Darth Rezak once again comms Darth Ceres on their private channel. Hiding his presence in the Force to mask it from both enemies and allies, he says, "Darth Ceres, I want you to send the remote signal to our operations center on Hades to have its automated defenses brought online. You and I shall meet on Hoth with Darth Cubolla to sign a pact with him, but we will have a ready avenue of escape should any betrayal occur."

"My lord," says the feminine voice into his earset, "do you suspect treachery? Shall I come ready to evac you on a moment's notice?"

"No, if there is any treachery afoot, I shall stomp it out, but you and I will continue should even this smaller Sith group prove a futile endeavour. I have many more years ahead of me, and should this so-called Dark Lord fail, I will merely slip away with you and head to our secondary base."

"Understood milord. I will be on Hoth in three hours standard time."

"Good, I will have Dredge send you the exact coordinates when you enter the system. Oh, and make sure you have your cloaking systems up even during entry."

"Understood my master. I will do so."

Thankful that he had his helmet system sound-proofed and that he can hold private conversations without being heard, Darth Rezak wonders what it is that Darth Cubolla is planning.

Darth Cubolla looked over to the third Sith Lord, the newest addition to the small meeting. "We are going to look for the area of where we will comence contruction of a Temple and an Academy. We are deciding if we shall keep them as one area, or split them into two different locations." He adjusted his mask, taking note that they were wearing masks as well. "Hmmm" He creatively thought, and then looking down at the crystals. "We shall change the Sith order" he vaguely spoke, "these crystals are from the crystal cave behind us, under the ruins of the Temple of the Force." Cubolla's droid again picked the crate up, hovering over to his fighter, placing it inside the small cargo hold. "Come, we must find the location. I sugest we look for the holy site first, a place with the most Dark Side Energy, as well as a well hidden front. I sugest we look for a deep cave, large in size, or a canyon. A small valley would be the second best, I suppose."
The sith lord walked past them, a bit closer to his ship "We don't want it accessable by land, only air or underground hidden passages." With that his ship's cockpit hatch opened, the sith jumping in, "we should move as quickly as we can, so as to not be seen." It closed after that, the ship's engines roaring to life.

Vaxiin nodded, "A pretty good idea. But we could also use the old base the Rebels used when they were in Hoth, if it's still around. if it is, we could make adjustments, to cloak it even better, and I'm sure it has some Dark Side aura, since it was an important place in it's time. If it's not around, the I do agree that we should find a cave. Just someplace fairly easily accessible, yet cloakable."

"I was mostely favoring a canyon, where we could dig out structure into the wall of ice. We can scan for a canyon, and make a cave from the surface--through a hill of some-sort--and down into the canyon." Cubolla got into the air, circling the area lowly, waiting for the other sith.

Cubolla's ship shot away at high speed, only to die away in velocity and do a sort of drift in the air, turning as the pilot saw the huge revine that was caused when he had made the Force Earthquake against the Temple. The ship shot downward into the close quarters, making out the turrain. There were actual ice bridges forming across ways as it passed between the large mountain range. He shot full speed ahead until right before hitting the ground of a broken platform. He drifted a bit due to the ice, but soon it was realised to be a purposefully made move, so that the other sith could land, but only if they were skilled pilots, which he hoped they were; he didn't want his ship to be knocked off the edge, or worse; him. He got out and slid over to the wall of ice, a small cave already had naturally formed inside. Cubolla swiftly moved through the mouth of it, where several yeti-beasts were laying down, however quickly rose when he had come into the room, growling and roaring they punched the ground in primal anger. The Sith Lord turned and waited for the others, confident that the beasts weren't intent on charging as long as he didn't move forward any more.
His form again shifted a bit, a beacon being set down on the floor near the wall. It would tell the supplies and small force of troops to land on top of the revine, where they could soon start the contruction.

Far off the dropship landed on the revine's edge, everything in and around it cloaked. They began hooking up dropping cordes, so they could shimmy down the icy wall into the mouth of the cave.

The new Sith Empire was beginning to take shape.
