*Lake Natth was a lake on the planet of Ambria. After Jedi Master Thon defeated Sith spirits that threatened to take the sector, he contained their dark side energy beneath the lake. Over time, the creatures of the lake became manifested with the Dark Side, and the resulting Hssiss could be found with dark side powers.*

The waters of Lake Natth roared loudly as dark ceremonies were convened within the Zabarian Castle. Darkness was supreme upon Ambria. Its citizens lived under Dark Sovereignty. The Hssiss waited the sacrifices that would appease their appetites.

*Events were held in all the major cities and towns in celebration of Ambrian Days. The Royal Family attended to ceremonies at Lake Natth, open only to dark side users and select nonforce users. Dark Lords wearing elaborate hooded cloaks marched towards the private Lake Natth area, parading by Ambrian dignitaries.*
*The Empress, Lady San Zabar, arrived to massive applause. Her sons accompanied her, their grey and red military styled garbs bore the Royal House colors. Lady San turned and gazed upon the guests, who would be joining them in the Royal Castle, for the Annual Ball, after the Lake Side ceremony. Lady San lifted her hood and solemnly continued among the private pathway leading to the high Archway belonging to the Lake Natth Gardens. The heavy doors leading to the Gardens was swung closed by Ambrian Guards, and clapping broke out as the Hsiss Dragons bellowed for sacrifice.*

*Domin Ater reaches the edge of the Lake, and hover his speeder close to the ceremonial platform. Workers continue to follow orders being barked out by their supervisors. The platform would be used in the Festivities, an annual event on Ambria. Giving praise to the Hsiss Dragons and the long dead Sith sorcerers forever entombed beneath and within the LAke. The air was dry, and had a metallic scent. Nearby winds held traces of the manufacturing plants several kilometers in the distance. Domin spun around, sensing a change in the force. His normally business like forbearance changed to one of curiosity. Shaking off that feeling, he headed towards the industrial center.*

*Ceremonies were held in honor of the graduating class from the Ambrian Force Academy. The youth were between fifteen and seventeen years. Brighter students were given particularly unique gifts. Each according to the potential within the student. Whether that would be realized, time would tell. Lady San presided over the presentations, reminding them that no matter what their force aptitude, their time here was a stepping stone to fulfilling their destiny. Two were chosen to join Lady San's private inner circle. As the ceremony continued, Lady San sent them a mental command to retreat to the palace.*

It had been far too many years since the familiar sights and smells of Ambria. As Malvus gazed at the sky, he remembered a time when the space above him was filled with all sorts of traffic; personal ships, fleets of warships, transports, freighters, all bearing the emblem of the Ronove Sith and their allies. Despite its dissolution, and some of its remnants absorbed into the former Horica Sovereign Empire, the Sith Lord knew there were those, of the Ronove's ranks, that still resided upon Ambria. Those that remained continued to serve Lady San Zabar, up until her disappearance, and followed her offspring, Aasim and Anastasia Horica, children fathered by Malvus.
With his sights set upon rebuilding the One Sith, the Crimson Lord came once more to Ambria, along with his children and a cadre of Sith Warriors, seeking to recruit what remained of the Ronove on the planet. Spreading out around Lake Natth, his twins went into the old buildings, left behind by the Order, to search its ruins for any possible recruits. While Darth Malvus was drawn to the vicinity of the lake itself. He was drawn to the dark nexus of Sith spirits that resided deep beneath its surface, who were once observing the Dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Bane, founder of the Rule of Two. What a heretical teaching that turned out to be as Malvus embraced the Rule of One.
He moves away from the Lake, walking around its perimeter as his crimson eyes scanned the area. There were some caves that still resided within the area, certainly some Sith still lived here, drawing upon the dark spirits. The Sith Lord turned to the closest cave, approaching it to peer inside, his force sensitivity feeling out the walls and long corridor. Malvus began to wonder if what had remained of Ronove had already moved on from Ambria, certainly there would be a few diehards still remaining.

A shudder first, then a cringe and finally a spark of excruciating pain stirred the Sith from his momentary slumber.
He could not remember how long he'd been adrift, lost in the memories of a past he could not decipher. But, as he pushed himself free from the chair he rested his misshapen husk in, he felt the wave of darkness ooze it's way into the cave and down into the complex built into it. A darkness he had not felt since the Ronove dwindled into nothingness.
With curdled rattle of words, he donned the power suit that maintained his body and turned stretched out with his mind for the presence that had disturbed his agonized slumber. Vivien was awake, moving quickly towards the mouth of the cave, and he was quick against the pain to climb to the surface; irrational and young, he knew her fate to be severe should she be allowed to act unchecked. And with an unworldly ease he carried himself, fueled by the very same pain that should have crippled him, to where a figure stood astride of the young woman. A sight he had not anticipated for some many years still, but hardly one that was unwelcome.
It struck him then, like a shuttle against the hull of a destroyer, the presence that he had felt from far below. A familiar presence, but a bitter one even still, that was now housed in a far different body from before.
He returns. A pity there will be no reception... Teleos voice came through his breathing apparatus, as he approached the man who now stood before him in the Sith Species.
I would hear your excuse, Valstrol... He chided, gripping his fists as he came to a halt some feet from the other, his armored suit eliciting metallic sounds as he moved and halted. There had once been a time when the two could have been considered comrades, but he had long since accepted the notion that Sith only had tools and enemies.
His words would provide the designation he sought.

It seems that his assumption about the caves were right. His senses picked up two force signatures, a male and female. It was the male's presence who felt all too familiar, a presence he had not felt in a long time. A breathing apparatus was heard, followed by the voice, belonging to Darth Teleos as the human Sith came into view. Malvus watches calmly, showing no hint nor spark of amusement in the words of Teleos. The Sith Lord, standing before the entrance of the cave, keeps his eyes locked with the metallic sounding Sith who had once been a member of the Ronove. If he was around, certainly others were too.
Malvus brings up his wrist comlink, communicating with his children, located on the far side of the lake.
Made contact with a Darth Teleos, Aasim. If he has stuck around, there are bound to be more.
Acknowledged, father, we will continue with our sweep of the Ronove buildings.
Malvus keys off his comlink, keeping his gaze upon Teleos.
I hardly expected a reception on this planet. Ronove may have had masquerade balls and formal events, but that is the past. Its an abandoned planet.
Less dead than Korriban or Ziost though. Even when he arrived some years back, seeing Lady Zabar for the last time, there was no reception, no welcoming party or anything. The Sith Lord never expected such things anymore with the Sith shattered and scattered as badly as they were presently. His eyes glance at the apprentice of Lord Teleos. At least he kept the traditions alive, thought Malvus, before his eyes returned to his old comrade.
You should know that excuses are for Jedi, Teleos. Excuses for why we still exist in the galaxy, excuses for why they kept keep the peace of the galaxy and why there is no law nor order within the galaxy once more. You may not know this, but the galaxy is once more at war... an ideal time for us to regain what we have lost and thrive. While the Jedi fail to keep the peace they pride themselves on fostering.
Malvus was ready for any action from the Sith in front of him, ready to draw his lightsabers or unleash a powerful blow of the Dark Side. His peripherals keeping an eye especially upon the apprentice. Any movement from her could turn this into a two versus one fight. The Sith Lord needed to be prepared.
Although, allow me to return the favor, what is your excuse for living in a cave, Teleos.

Little could have prepared the Sith for the reunion he had been bitterly set into, nor the taste it left in his mouth as he began to edge closer to the former comrade. He could not remember the last time he had seen Lady San Zabar, nor the rest of the Ronove he had claimed loyalty to. Truth of the matter was that he had not seen Horica since his days as a human, a man of action and leadership but in the flesh and bonds of a man by worldly means to the wife he was wed to. And yet here he stood as clear as day for a reason that the Sith could not peg.
Excuses kill, that is the only certainty I know. He breathed as he came to a halt near his apprentice, raising an arm to wave her down from acting irrationally in the presence of beings outside her skill.
You have not changed, but your understanding has broadened. Very little could have swayed the Sith from the safety of his compound, but the words that exited the other Sith's mouth were enough to elicit an answer from him. How long had it been since he completed the compound he now resided in? How long had it been since he resigned to the pain that fueled him as regularly as food and water? He dared not consider the extend of such details, but an answer was due.
Excuse? No. I await my purpose. He uttered as he turned his crimson and yellow eyes to the Sith being standing across from him.
To purge the Sith of heresy.

Purge Sith of heresy, that could easily be viewed in many lights. Nonetheless, a grin appeared across the face of Malvus.
Then we share a similar goal.
His gloved hand gestures above them, to the unseen space that surrounded Ambria.
I have traveled to all sorts of worlds throughout the galaxy, seeking an end to those Sith Orders that failed, those that have fallen through their own debauchery and slothfulness. They were cut down and finished by the handiwork of my warriors. Their resources and manpower, remaining, absorbed for a higher purpose.
Malvus recalled all the worlds visited. Korriban, to seek the teachings of an ancient Sith King. Dromund Kaas, to recruit warriors and others to his cause. Thule, to crush the heretical Order of Ruin. Ziost, to obliterate the remnants of the Dark Tide. Alzoc III, to smash the wanna-be Sithlings that dared believed they were worthy in his eyes. And so forth. Many worlds were deprived of their Sith inhabitants, for the future of the One Sith's desires.
The task is still not complete though... there is still much to do in order for the One Sith to reign supreme again. There are still heretics who exist and do not abide by the Rule of One, by the principles of the One Sith, nor accept an invitation in our ranks.
His eyes glance at Teleos.
That is why I came to Ambria, to seek out those who desire a purpose. To find those eager to once more unleash their power upon our foes. To find those ready to strike fear into this galaxy. For I know those of the former Ronove are more than worthy than the heretics I have come across.

Something stirred in the Sith as his former comrade spoke. Something he had not felt for years, since his time before the Ronove as a wandering warrior, that seemed to pulse as the other being lifted his hand to the skies above. So much death and destruction would have brought a smile to the Sith's lips were they capable of such a thing, but instead he forced a rasped wheeze through his apparatus and coughed up a few words in response to the exploits explained to him.
Than the way is clear. He echoed his previous notion as he stepped forward and gazed upwards towards the sky for but a moment. Lowering his head back down he lowered his arms to his sides and took the lightsaber hilt on his belt in his hand, holding it up where the other could see it. Not in hostility, but in witness.
This blade was forged with the desire for the death of heretics and jedi filth. His words rang and the burst and hum of the saber filled the air. The blood red crimson of the blade lit up the cave and the light spilled about as he held it upright and then lowered it again before disengaging it. A display of power that he could muster in light of lack of composure.
The One Sith will be as it was once more... He uttered as he clicked his saber back onto his belt and began to make his way past the other Sith and towards the lake beyond. Vivien followed in close kind as a ship began to rise from a small opening above the cave they had exited. The time had come for him to return to the galaxy and he would do so at the side of his former comrade.
True Sith do not suffer a hesitation from action.

It seems Malvus had managed to recruit someone of value to the One Sith. He procures a datapad, handing it to Teleos after walking up to the entrance of the cave. It indicated some necessary codes needed to land upon Eriadu. Once they were accepted, the Sith Lord turns to look at Lake Natth from where they stood.
Come to Eriadu then, Lord Teleos, and you will find your skills to be of value for the future of the One Sith.
With the invitation accepted, Malvus walks away from the cave, deciding to continue with his investigation of the area.

With the expanding influence and strength of the Dark Jedi Order, a new outpost was setup near the shores of Lake Natth. Zyara Oceanseeker and her Corrupted Codru-Ji forces were given guardianship of the Lake and the Hssiss that spawned from the depths of the lake. A new breeding program was quickly setup, with some Hssiss being used and exported as they were. While a small number of them were transported off to the Tiernvael Temple to undergo experimentation by The Fallen to see what new constructs could serve the Order

Zaya was still relatively novice in the arts of alchemical alteration, especially compared to Ifrit's mastery of the art. Thus more and more of the Hssiss found their way out onto the black market, with the Fallen Empress finding their monetary value more important at present for covertly funding the Order's presence on Ambria
