Viox Savage, garbed in his freshly pressed High Admiral's uniform, strode into Nicademus' office after clearing the appropriate security checkpoints. He had the air of authority about him. After several months of being the High Admiral within the First Order, he had really taken to the authority that came with such a position.
This was, after all, Imperial Strategic Command. One did not simply walk into the Office of the Supreme Commander.
Savage's highly polished boots clicked smartly on the floor. The Zabrak pivoted on his heel and stood at attention before the Supreme Commander. With a brisk salute, he stepped towards the Commander's desk. In his left prosthetic hand was a datapad.
The datapad contained information on the next move of the First Order. After careful planning and studying of all planets controlled by the First Order, Savage had decided on where their next move should be and now it was time to bring it forth to the Supreme Commander.
Savage's whisper like tone still hadn't changed, despite his authoritative position.
"Supreme Commander. I have spent the last few days planning and plotting our next strike. I trust you will be pleased with the results."
And with that, Savage placed the datapad on Nicademus' desk and gently slid it over to him. He then took a step back and allowed Nicademus the chance to review the datapad, while he waited.

The Supreme Commander was finishing a holotransmission with his brother who was giving a sit rep on the progress upon the planet of Agamar. A world that represented the new treaty between the Mandalorian clans and the First Order. Nicademus was quite pleased with himself in achieving an alliance with Mandalore, despite public opinion, all of which were Muuns, being rather unhappy with this. However, the militant regime of the First Order did not seem to care one bit about their opinion on the matter.
He keys the transmission to end, turning in his chair to see the High Admiral strolling into his office, datapad being offered the moment the Iridonian came to his desk. Curious, the Supreme Commander takes the pad and reviews the data quietly, examining the planning of this new operation against... Iridonia. The planet was situated upon the eastern flank of Bilbringi and upon the southern border of the First Order. The Imperial could see why the High Admiral chose this planet as the next conquest.
Reclaiming the homeworld of your people for the future of the First Order I take it? Add its strategic value to our territories?

Viox grinned slyly as Nicademus posed the question to him.
That was the exact question he had expected from Nicademus. Having served with him for several months and with him being of the hardcore Imperialistic nature, he was predictable. Which was fine in this situation.
"Simply put, yes. Iridonia is the perfect buffer between the core of the First Order and our furthest outpost. With Iridonia's location along major trade routes, we leave ourselves open. Strategically, it is a sound move." Savage paused, reluctant to proceed. "There is also the more lucrative spice trade. Yarrock is a highly addictive spice. Controlling that benefits Iridonia and in turn the First Order. Strategically and financially Iridonia is a beneficial planet to add to our ranks."
Savage finished speaking and allowed the Supreme Commander to digest what he had just said.

Nicademus continues to review the details of the planned operation. From the looks of these reports gathered, Iridonia was a free planet, unaligned since the days of the Triumvirate. The Imperial could see that Viox would want this world to return to the fold of the Savage family and also serve a greater purpose with the First Order. He knew of the Iridonians as a skilled species when it came to warfare; their mercenaries having a reputation among the galaxy. In addition, there was a Sith Academy that could serve the needs of the Sith aligned with the First Order.
I will approve of the operation. Iridonia is indeed a strategic planet to acquire as it was once a part of the Imperial Remnant as of 40 ABY and was a member of the Fel Empire too. Its acquisition could give us a new source of manpower and an added defense for Bilbringi and Yaga Minor. We can invest heavily in its defensive capabilities and ensure it can be a useful staging ground.

Savage bowed his head slightly as the Supreme Commander approved of his operation.
"Thank-you sir. My fleet is in orbit and shall depart at once. I will report back to you once I have secured Iridonia in the name of the First Order."
With the approval of the Supreme Commander, he was already prepared for the operation, having planned to go ahead with it regardless of Nicademus' approval. Having official approval made things easier, however. Viox saluted the Supreme Commander and spun on his heel, swiftly marching out of the Commander's Office. From there, he would return to the ground level of Imperial Strategic Command and head to the hangar bays, where a shuttle was currently waiting to take him up to his flagship, the Legacy of the Void.

A transmission awaited the Supreme Commander and at a time when he was alone and available the live stream began...
Supreme Commander Delvardus, Agamar is all but ours. I have sent my operation reports to General Delvardus, but have not received an acknowledgement. It is my expert opinion that my presence is no longer necessary in the system. Additionally, I am pleased to report that my family contacts on Taris have informed me that the Tarisian Senate has monitored our expansion in the region and wishes to secure a trade agreement with our order. No doubt they have noticed the change in the wind and seek to avoid a conflict. I have shown you me ability to make war, allow me to demonstrate my abilities in diplomacy. I formally request reassignment, allow me, with the assistance of your Imperial Hand... to negotiate a trade deal on your behalf.

Nicademus keys the transmission, allowing himself to be seen. His traditional gray uniform was now replaced with the stark white colors of a Grand Admiral. The Imperial listens calmly to the report made by Lord Tarkin before nodding his head affirmatively.
I have long kept my eye upon Taris, whose position will do well for future operations given its strategic positioning.
Lately, Zuka had been mentioning Valinor a lot, making the Supreme Commander wonder if they two were working together.
You have my permission to gain this deal and anything that is seen fit that would be of benefit to the First Order. Report back when a deal is hammered out so that I may examine it and see if it meets my approval.

Zuka adds...
Are there any specific conditions that you would care to have in place? I am hoping to add several amendments to allow our fleets to pass through their system while conducting operations in neighboring systems.

Dreadlord Ovose is brought to the most secure part of the Imperial Strategic Command, the suite of the Supreme Commander, Nicademus Delvardus IV. Outside of his suite stood a strong presence of Stormtroopers, bearing the markings of the Braxant Phalanx, an elite unit that was dedicated to the Supreme Commander's protection. Once everything was cleared, General Delvardus and Lord Ovose were permitted to enter.
Once inside, the Supreme Commander was seen reviewing a holomap, possibly examining troop and fleet deployments. At four corners of the room stood a single Imperial Knight with two more flanking his desk. Nicademus would away from the display, noticing his brother and Ovose. He gestures to his brother, making Artemis bow and depart. The Supreme Commander then returns his gaze to the holomap.
So you're this Dreadlord that High Command recently promoted to the rank of Commander. Ovose correct?

Ovose followed the General into this highly secured facility and up to the office of the Supreme Commander of the First Order, Nicademus Delvardus IV, Ovose noticed the heavy presence of the StormTroopers and their unique crest upon them, he waited until he was was cleared, once that happened, the Dreadlord followed the General into the comfortably large office, taking note once more of the security standing in each corner and the two at the desk, he's never seen these type of Trooper before, interesting he thought to himself, he could feel the force about the room and quickly discerned these men are force users much like himself. Ovose partially glanced at the holomap as Nicademus looked towards them and dismissed his General with a wave, Ovose bowed honorably to the Supreme Commander and stepped fourth with pride to answer Nicademus.I am Supreme Commander, Ready to be assigned.He stood firm with his pike, unignited.

Nicademus calmly keys the holomap display to go off, leaning back into his chair. He read what profile that High Command had on Ovose. Dreadlord was his title, more of a Dark Side Adept than a true Sith, noted as a commander of the fleet more so than an army commander. Nicademus still needed to test this man's abilities and his loyalties. After pondering quietly for a moment, the Imperial keys the holodisplay, revealing what he had been examining before Ovose's arrival.
High Command has been getting some reports of riots on Mygeeto where former IGBC prisoners have been raising their voices, striking Stormtroopers with mining tools and even rigging droids for drilling and digging to aid them. I cannot tolerate this disturbance in our territory!
The Supreme Commander looks at Ovose, letting the Adept to examine the reports himself.
These riots have begun to spawn armed parties. We have even lost some facilities to them. It is time to make an example of these rebels and ensure they either bend the knee to our authority or die for their transgression against the First Order. I am deploying further domestic and military troops to put these riots down and you will aid in these operations, Ovose.

Ovose watched through his red tinted slot of a visor as the Supreme Commander relaxed in his chair and turned off the holomap, reading a datapad, no doubt on the Dreadlord himself, after a few minutes of silence and looking as if he has made a decision, Nicademus turned the holomap back on to a planet image, Mygeeto, he then spoke very sternly about the uprisings there, the assaults on his brothers in arms and illegally modifying of droids for the purpose of rebellion, it was publishable by Death.
Nicademus handed the information to Ovose and he accepted it, he looks at for a chrono tick or two as the Supreme Commander spoke more on the situation at hand on Mygeeto and his role to play. Ovose will bring swift and cruel justice to the First Order. The Dreadlord looked up from the report and spoke affirmatively.
I will execute all rebelling leaders and their families in the streets and dismantle all corrupted droids Supreme Commander. Pausing for a second. Who is it I am to report to upon arrival at Mygeeto Supreme Commander?
Ovose knew he wouldn't be put in command of this operation as this was his first field assignment since being promoted to Commander of a fleet by High Command.

Who is it I am to report to upon arrival at Mygeeto Supreme Commander? Garrison Commander Qarim failed in preventing these riots and has been executed for his incompetence. You will be deployed alongside my brother, General Artemis Delvardus. A seasoned detachment of the Imperial 9th Army and Core Fleet will be sent to Mygeeto.The Supreme Commander kept his professional and stern tone the whole time. Nicademus had done his best to keep his emotions separated from work, as they were solely set aside for a certain lady in his life. The Imperial rises from his spot, gesturing to an Imperial Knight nearby.The Imperial Knights will also be deployed during this venture. Their expertise will be invaluable as well as your skills.

The Supreme Commander continued to speak as he rose from his seat and motioned for one the men he called an Imperial Knight, The Dreadlord liked this term, as he studied the dress of the man, he is dressed very similar to Imperial Royal Guards and much like himself, a Shadow Guard, a new detachment he thought to himself. He also enjoyed the confidence put to him.
I will leave immediately Supreme Commander and rally with General Artemis at Mygeeto.
Ovose would wait respectfully to be dismissed by the Supreme Commander as visions of death and despair swelled in him as his thoughts turned to quelling this small rebellion, brutally. He signaled his men to begin departure procedures by touching a small button on a small keypad device attached to his right wrist.

I will alert my brother of your impending arrival. He should be leaving momentarily himself to command the Imperial garrison at Mygeeto.
The Supreme Commander dismisses Ovose from his office before returning to his reports on the holomap.

* A holo image appears before the Supreme Commander, the image was of his Imperial Hand Thrakk Valinor who was one of his most trusted Agents. The Holo image speaks to the Supreme Commander *
" My Lord, Taris is now under the control of the First Order. No civilian casualties nor any hostile action was needed....with this mission completed I await my next assignment. I would like to suggest allowing myself and my forces to deploy to Ossus, clearing the Jedi out of this part of the Outer Rim would alleviate some of our forces so that they could then be re-deployed to the expansion campaign"

The suite of the Supreme Commander had an amber illumination as Nicademus gazes upon the serene image of Mustafar, a planet covered in lava, volcanoes, ash and smoke. Yet despite its rather volatile appearance, there was a certain beauty about it that made the Imperial gaze upon the world. His eyes watched as flares were seen here and there, indicating where a volcano erupted, spewing forth more molten rock and black smoke high into the air. After a moment, he sighs deeply, burdened by thoughts.
Ambitions grew and fell with ease, just as the sun rose over Harnaidan every day and set at dusk. He had felt removed from reality for a long time, something that was rare for the Delvardus as his father had done so well to ensure that his son and heir to their estates on Eriadu could self-motivate himself. It propelled up the rankings in Eriadu's planetary security, it motivated him to seek the Imperial Remnant in the Deep Core, it rose him to Emperor and to Supreme Commander, it made him create the First Order and propose a new vision for galactic order. Yet, all of a sudden, it slipped from his gloved hands, as if he attempted to hold water within his grasp. The Supreme Commander felt his thoughts darken for a moment, turning to shadows as he rose from his spot. The suite was more silent and vacant, still and undisturbed. Save for the man who occupied it long ago.
He slowly grabs his trench coat, ensuring it was set firmly upon his shoulders. A droid was present with a mirror, ensuring the Supreme Commander was able to adjust his uniform and make himself seem appropriately dressed for whatever occasion was coming. As he adjusted his clothing, Nicademus proposed a question the droid that was suited before him.
Tell me, who am I?
The droid's head tilted slightly. Its robotic optics adjusting a moment as the automaton examined the biologic human before him.
You are the Supreme Commander of the First Order, Nicademus Delvardus IV. Native of Eriadu, scion of the House of Delvardus, former Emperor of the Galactic Empire, former Head of State for the Imperial Remnant. You are-
Nicademus waved his gloved hand, indicating for the droid to stop speaking.
No no, tell me again, who am I?
The automaton remained silent, unsure of his master's inquiry.
I am afraid I do not understand what you are asking me, Sir.
Nicademus looks at the droid and pats its metallic cheek as if attempting to open its eyes.
I am Nicademus Delvardus first, everything else second. I am the First Order, I am the future. I am the Imperial who commands men, faceless or not. I am the one who will see the galaxy united under my vision, under my galactic order. I am the one who founded this nation and the one who will see it rise above all others. I am the dread of my enemies and the fear of trespassers. I am the pillar, the arms, the feet and the mind of this nation.
the Supreme Commander looks at himself in the mirror quietly for a moment.
And I will see my vision realized... to the very last breath of my body.

*It was truly a pleasing day for Soku, that this little plot of his had worked. Pleasing for multiple reasons, truly, but most of all was that they had added another to the ranks of the Knights of Ren, to the true cause of order and justice in the galaxy. It was this initiate that Soku intended to bring before the Supreme Commander, as well as propose another operation that would not only benefit the First Order, but serve to test the initiate's resolve to the cause...
Soku had led Vladimir Savage to the capital of Harnaidan and to Imperial Strategic Command, granting him entry and escorting him to the Supreme Commander's office. Soku had spoken very little of the Supreme Commander, preferring to allow Vladimir to ascertain his own impressions; he only spoke of him as a powerful and influential leader, whose goals were noble and worthy of the Knights' following.
The doors to the office opened, allowing the two entrance, Soku seeming dwarfed by his Zabrak companion. Nevertheless, Soku strode forth with pride and dignity, stopping after several paces and bowing on one knee.* "My lord, I wish to present you with a report." *He stood, then gestured toward the Zabrak with one arm.* "The numbers of the Knights of Ren grow. This is one Vladimir Savage." *He looked over his shoulder towards Vladimir, explaining in a reverent voice,* "I introduce you to Supreme Commander Nicademus Delvardus IV."
