The Immortal Chronicles: Entry 3 - The Tomb of Ajunta Pall

Ajunta Pall i have studied recently. From what i have learned before the Empire, before the Sith Order, Ajunta Pall was the very first Dark Lord.  Ajunta Pall learned how to create and shape life itself through the Force--an art the Jedi feared and sought to end. In an act of defiance, he turned his newfound power against the Jedi Order and rebelled.

The Jedi banished Ajunta Pall and his followers, exiling them to the Outer Rim--where the exiles found Korriban and a Force-wielding native species called the Sith. Ajunta Pall impressed the Sith with his power and technology, and the Sith soon revered the exiles as gods. From his seat of power on Korriban, Ajunta Pall was named Dark Lord of the Sith and founded the Sith Empire.

Upon his death, Ajunta Pall's body was entombed in the Valley of the Dark Lords. After millennia of sandstorms, cave-ins and warfare, the tomb still stands as a testament to his lasting influence.

 I have now entered this sacred tomb. It smells of dust, and blood. I hear the wails of foul creatures deeper inside. I grip my vibroblade and make my way deeper inside in excitement. I get to the entrance of the lower level and find imperial troops in a foothold at the edge of the stairs. They ask me for help and i tell them i will destroy all in my path.

 I wade my way waist deep in Core slugs. They all fall before me. I plant their explosives and do what these mere solders can't. Of course i do not do this for free. I arrived on planet with the clothes on my back. There is power in credits as well as the force. I would be a fool not to use both to my advantage.

 I dispatch some lowly tomb looters along the next corridor. Filthy bottomfeeding scum. There carcasses will now feed the creatures that lurk in the shadows.

 I make my way into an adjacent room quitely. At the end of the room i see a weapon rack with a warblade sitting there for the taking. This looks too easy and i carefully approach the blade. With one quick motion i grab the blade and swing around at the ready. Bursting from coffins that line the room imerge defense droids. So this is my test. I wield the new blade with fury cutting down the droids where they stand. I charge into the next group of droids deflecting blaster fire as i close in. They fall before my might. Yes this blade will do. This blade will do nicely.

 The few rooms i pick up a couple artifacts along the way. I make my way out of the tomb back into the sunlight. As my eyes adjust i see the Sith Academy just up the hill. I sheath my new blade and head to the Sith Academy.

The Immortal Chronicles: Entry 2 - The Acolyte

 My shuttle has landed. I exit out of Korriban and take a moment to gather in my surroundings. There was not a patch of grass or a tree in sight. I was standing in a rocking canyon with what looked like ancient tombs in the area.

 I see a man waiting for me at the threshold of building carved into the rock in front of me. As i walk up to him i see him measuring me. I also feel fear within him. He is a man on edge i sense.

He introduces himself as Overseer Tremel, the adminster of the sith trials to acolytes.

I was brought here to face my trials early. Why he did not say. I sense he is looking for an ally. I am looking to get ahead. For now i will play by this fools rules.

 He warns me of a rival acolyte Vemrim, and also tells me first thing we need to do, and my first test is to retrieve a dominating weapon. I am to venture forth into the tomb of Tomb of Ajunta Pall, survive the natural predators and retrieve the warblade.

 I am eager for action. I loathe the Overseer he is a weak fool. I head to the tomb using my anger against him to feed my power....
