 The Chained Tower of the Sith Knights, while technically not a part of the main Obelisk, was located in the center of a lava lake. Thick, heavy chains ran from anchors in the tower to anchors on the surrounding terrain, giving the tower structural support. The tower itself was suspended over the boiling lake, hence the need for the massive chains. The tower contained the living quarters for each of the Sith Knights There was also all the other basic amenities that were required for the tower to be inhabited. The tower also contained a barracks for a garrison of Sith Troopers, an Archive that was connected to the Obelisk's database. A roof top landing platform was designed to accommodate ship up to a corvette class, while smaller exterior landing platforms were meant for the members of the Sith Knights to dock their personal ships. In the main room beneath the rooftop landing platform was a mock council chambers, resembling that from the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. This room allowed for all of the Sith Knights to meet, meditate or convene with the Sith'ari for their next assignment. |

Council Chambers Seated within the Council Chambers, atop the Chained Tower, the remaining Sith Knights had gathered and awaited their next assignment. As a hologram of the armor clad Knight-Commander appeared, he addressed the rest of his team.The Empress has given us our next target. Lord Wraak is our commanding officer for the duration. We are assembling on the Starkiller. We're moving against Vallius on Iridonia.Saul Corvus, the Pau'an male Sith Knight and unofficial second to Klassen bowed his head and acknowledged the order."Understood, Knight-Commander. We will be there and ready for a fight."As the hologram of Klassen disappeared, the rest of the Sith Knghts rose to their feet and filed out of the room. In the span of several minutes, eight Sith Knight Interceptors launched from their respective platforms on the tower, gathered in formation and flew skywards, heading to meet up with the Exar-Class Star Destroyer that would transport them to Iridonia. |

Lizbeth's Chambers Lizbeth's induction into the Sith Knights had come at the recommendation of both her brother, Geralt, the current Knight-Commander, and her personal idol, Vasari Nightshade. With those recommendations, it had all but guaranteed Lizbeth's acceptance. Her proficiency in Force combat had given the Knights a valued member and support system that they needed. And it gave Lizbeth a place to fit in while not venturing too far away from her brother. Alas, the other Knights had been selected for a task and she hadn't been included in it. Though she imagined her next assignment would be wrought with adventure, as most of her assignments tended to be. For now, she would remain in the tower and focus on her training, so that she was prepared for her next task. |

Sparring Chambers With success after success on her assignments, Lizbeth had been recently granted command of a small team of Sith Knights. Kanasazi Squad was still a relatively new unit to the ranks of the Knights, so intensive drills and team building exercises had been important. While not as diverse as the team Geralt, her brother, commanded, this new unit was still a force to be reckoned with. Or so Lizbeth hoped. Hopefully soon, they would be given an assignment to prove themselves out in the field. For now, however, the focus would be building the group up so they worked as a cohesive unit. And Lizbeth was confident they would successfully pull it off, given the opportunity. |

Council Chambers Lizbeth and her team, Kanasazi Squad, had been asked to assemble in the Council Chambers of the Tower for a briefing, though little else had been said. Hopefully it was good news, though at this point it could go either way. While they hadn't done anything wrong, they technically hadn't been given an assignment and completed it successfully either. Nervous, but determined, the young woman found her seat as the rest of her team filed in and found their seats as well. |

Chained Tower of the Sith Knights - Council Chambers
At the center of the mock council chambers, sat a massive holo-projector. Used only to give the Knights their tasks or assignments, it would once against be used for that very reason, though the one to appear was none other than the Sith'ari himself. Which would have surprised most of the members of Kanasazi Squad, as the Sith'ari himself never became directly involved with the Knights deployment unless it was for matters of the state. Wasting no time, the hologram of the Sith'ari spoke, his voice commanding the attentions of all present in the room.
Lizbeth Klassen. I have a task for you and your team. Head to Roon. Overseer Asondra Valken has refused to comply with Order 212. As such, she has been branded a traitor to the Imperium and is to be publicly executed as an example.
Images of both Roon and of the Overseer appeared beside the Sith'ari.
You were trained to have unwavering loyalty to the Imperium, as well as myself. You swore an oath. It is now time to make good on that oath. Seek out this traitor and execute her and any of those who refuse the order. An example must be made and it falls to you to make it. Admiral Hood is standing by in orbit, awaiting for your arrival. He will escort you to Roon...
Without waiting for a response, the image of the Sith'ari faded away, leaving the team of Sith Knights in silence.

Council Chambers The appearance of the Sith'ari was surprising, to say the least. There was something different about him too. He appeared more youthful and powerful than she last remembered. Though that wasn't important. Issuing orders directly to her was almost intimidating. Almost. She wasn't used to being singled out, let alone by someone as respected as the Sith'ari. As he explained their task, she listened, soaking up the details. Head to Roon, execute Overseer Valken and any of those loyal to her. Admiral Hood of the Sith'ari's personal fleet was waiting in orbit for them. Straightforward enough. Before she had a chance to acknowledge the order, the Sith'ari had disappeared just as suddenly as he had appeared. Feeling the other members of her team staring at her, now that the Sith'ari was gone, she felt very much uncomfortable. But, she had a job to do, she reminded herself. It was time to make good on her oath into the Sith Knights. " Kanasazi Squad. You hear the Sith'ari. Get to your fighters and rendezvous with Admiral Hood onboard the Pandaora. We've got a job to do, so let's not disappoint the Sith'ari." There was a shuffle of movement as the other Knights headed to their fighters that were docked in the tower itself. Lizbeth made her way to her own fighter. Climbing in and sealing the canopy, she ran a pre-flight check. Once everything checked out, she was on her way out of her fighter's berth and up into Mustafar's atmosphere. Trailing behind her were the eight other Sith Interceptors belonging to her team. They'd be in orbit, docking with Admiral Hood's ship momentarily. Then they'd be on their way to Roon... |

The Dark Trials Chained Tower of the Sith Knights - Uhtred's ChambersUhtred sat on the edge of his bed looking at two medium to large size cases, the only things that he considered personal items with in his room. In one of the cases contained previous worn equipment, namely his old Imperial Knight armour and lightsabers as well as his two single bladed Sith lightsabers. In the other case was the lightsabers of all the defeated force users he had beaten in single combat, they were his trophies. Uhtred didn't really know why he kept them, but everytime he viewed them he remembered the duels and his opponents. Lately though he hadn't really looked at them, he was more focus on the future, his destiny and the fate of things within the Imperium. Uhtred required guidance and normally he would seek out other Sith Knights, his rivals or his father. However his father, rivals and the other Sith Knights would only give him the same advice which just happened to be to trust in the Sith'ari or Jen'ari or even the Knight Commander. He tired of the 'company line' he was being told, he had this feeling that he had a part to play in the grander scheme of things and he knew the only people who would be able to provide an outside view of things were the family he abandoned when he sought out his father. Uhtred picked up a data pad, it contained information that he acquired from Sith Intelligence and their spies from across the galaxy. The data pad revealed that his Aunt and Uncle were currently at The Oasis. Which he knew was a neutral space station that acted as a place where diplomats from across the galaxy could meet and discuss politics. Uhtred let out a sigh and then got up put on his flight suit and packed his Sith Knight armor and lightsaber into a seperate case and left his chambers and proceeded to head towards the rooftop landing pad. Chained Tower of the Sith Knights - rooftop landing padOnce he reached the landing pad, Uhtred boarded his Scimitar II-Class Sith Infiltrator, dubbed Falling Star. Once the ship's controls booted up, he proceeded to take off and headed out into Mustafar's high orbit. Uhtred was a bit curious about how his Aunt and Uncle would reacted to seeing him again, after so many years. |

Lizbeth's Chambers. The fall of the Imperium had been brutal. Six months of nearly consistent fighting across Mustafar has ensued. The Obelisk fell to usurper forces within the first few weeks. Thankfully, the Chained Tower of the Sith Knights was separate from the Obelisk, and highly defensible. At least, it was with the battalions of Sith Troopers that had retreated here. Them, along with Kanasazi Squad had managed to hold out and keep anyone away. Eventually they just stopped trying to take the tower. Bombarding it from orbit would have been the next logical move, however, there were system redundancies that had purposely been routed through the Tower that were tied directly into key components of functionality at the Obelisk to keep such a move from being attempted. A paranoid contingency plan of the Sith'ari's, to be sure. Regardless, paranoid or not, it had kept the Tower safe. Akrak and his ilk, within the Obelisk may not have liked it, but they were stuck with the Sith Knights. Had Geralt and his team also been on planet when the Sith'ari retreated away from Mustafar, they may have had the chance to retake the Obelisk, however, with less than a dozen Knights remaining in the tower and a dozen Sith Trooper Battalions, there wasn't a strategic reason to expend the manpower and resources to taking the Obelisk. And with the communications blackout from the rest of the Imperium, there really was no way to tell what was going on. But orders were clear. And despite her own questioning of said orders, the conditioning of the Sith Troopers prevented them from deviating from their orders. Though, it could have been worse. Being cut off from the rest of the Imperium, or even any sort of command structure was impeding the relaying of new orders, but at least the Tower had been designed to be mostly self sufficient. All in all, it wasn't ideal, but it certainly could have been a lot worse.*
*Lizbeth had retired to her chambers for the night, with the rest of the Knights taking shifts, patrolling the tower with the remaining troopers. She was exhausted, but she was alive. Hopefully Arielle and Geralt were too. But it had been so long that she wasn't certain anymore. The last she had heard from Geralt, he was in orbit, aiding in the Sith'ari's retreat. From there, she had no idea where he ended up. Hopefully he was alive. It would be nice to see him again. Though it didn't look good. Slowly falling into a restless sleep, Lizbeth would see what she could accomplish the next day, in regards to re-establishing communication with the rest of the Imperium, should it still exist. |
