Of course, Hierarch.
Sirona bowed to her Master before turning and making her way to the nook she had claimed in the Archives. She had to suppress the urge to run though the rows of shelves for her excitement. There she grabbed her pack with her archeology tools and her lightfoil. The echani had practically moved into this small and out of the way corner, and would often be found asleep there. She also grabbed a pair of translation texts, one on a datapad and the other a hard copy for fear of the electronics possibly acting up. With her gear secured, Sirona made her way out of the Archives.

Fanged Acropolis - Entrance and Landing Pads, Korriban. The Eye of Millennial settled onto the pad that had been designated to it via Malvus' coordinates that had been uploaded. Disembarking the ship, the occupant, Millennial Reborn, made his way into the Fanged Acropolis. His destination was the Archives, where he would meet with Malvus, the Hierarch of the Resurgent Sith Conclave. No one barred the way of Millennial Reborn, yet there were obvious looks from some. There were those, among the rank and file of the Conclave, that fought against his heretics and remembered the campaigns to cleanse his heresy from the Sith Worlds. Certainly, if the Heirarch were someone weaker, there would be questions said boldly and publicly. Yet, for now, there was silence and stares all the way to the Archives.
The Archives were in better shape than before, thanks to the Circles of Knowledge and Advancement. There was more order and organization to the chaos of any library, which was now fully manned by a capable crew of loremasters, adherents, and historians. Documents were safely secure while others, which were too badly damaged, were removed for further study and hopeful reproduction. The Heirarchs presence was noted by a passing acolyte who points in the general direction.
The Sith was examining newly founded texts within the Mausoleum below the Arcopolis. Malvus seemed to be reading documents from the reign of Adas, the Sith who founded the first empire to rule Korriban. These documents indicated decrees and measures done to formulate his empire. Actions performed that would ensure the destruction of the Ratakans that dared set foot upon Korriban many years later... and, ultimately, his demise. The Heirarch senses the mutant that was Millennial Reborn, causing him to glance up slightly before returning his gaze to one of the decrees, laid out before him.Somehow you survived...The Sith brushes some dust off one of the old parchments.I am not very surprised. You seemed to be the only capable one among your heretical following who knew how to vanish.

Sirona found her way back to the archives after her adventure in the tombs bellow. It had been a stressful few days, but with holocron and working translations in tow, she was confident she had met the expectations of her Master, in addition some of the information gained pertaining to a current member of the Conclave would prove interesting to see play out. So eager she was to fulfil this assignment, that she had neglected to clean herself up from her fight with the specters within the tomb itself. Her ragged appearance kept even more people from interacting with her than usual. But she didn't mind, she just continued to search for her Master, to deliver the news.

Darth Sirona It didn't take long for the apprentice to find her master for the Hierarch was present in the Archives. New information had been found by the Circle of Knowledge and brought up from below. There were holo-images of reliefs and stone carvings that spoke of stories between rival claimants, champions who took down dreaded beasts and raised their prestige as a result, and long feuds that had lasted for generations. Some of which were not concluded till after the Great Galactic War and the fall of the resurgent Sith Empire. There was, indeed, a trove of great things to be found. Lost history, ancient knowledge, and everything beyond that would help piece together a relatively unknown period of their past.
Malvus sensed the approaching presence of Sirona, causing him to turn away from some holo-images to see the ragged appearance of her person. She had survived the Mausoleum and defeated its guardians. Traversed its haunted corridors and endured the dark spirits and aura that practically choked the air beneath their feet. Sirona had proven herself worthy of her position. If she had never returned, then she would have been deemed unsuitable and the Hierarch would have moved on. His eyebrow went up slightly though, sensing an urgency within her stride. In her hands, an old Sith holocron was held.Apprentice.That was all Malvus said to Sirona, at first.You bring something of importance? There is an urgency in your stride... you have found something of immense worth to the Conclave?

Sirona hesitated for a moment, but it had nothing to do with the question posed, but instead a sudden fascination with all the holoprojected carvings that surrounded them. But with a shake of the head, recalling herself to the present, she knelt down, unshouldering her pack. From it she withdrew the datapads and paper journals that contained her translations. Then she held out them along side the Holocron. My lord, it would seem that the tomb belonged to one who, long long ago, followed or at the very least was a contemporary of our own Darth Obitus. The full tale is contained in my notes, but it seems at the height of his former power he was betrayed and doomed to float in space while sealed away in carbonite. When I conversed with the Gatekeeper, it described Darth Obitus to a fault, though perhaps a little younger and less worn by time. I know not how it is possible, but he seems to be one of the very Sith that we have so many questions for. The apprentice fell silent. Not much more could be said, and everything was in better detail within her notes and translations. She awaited her next command, or even if her master would accept the explanation.

Darth Sirona Malvus takes hold of the holocron that was offered up to him. The Sith looks at it before setting it down on the table, looking to confirm Sirona's story. Using the Force, he keyed the holocron to activate and reveal to him the story of a certain Pureblood named Vyzlor Harth, the name christened to Obitus before he was granted the title of Darth. It was a story of his ascension and downfall, one assured by the hands of his apprentice. The tale made Malvus wonder how then did Obitus escape from the carbonite? He must have been retrieved at a later date and revived. Still, Sirona's story was true, Obitus, their Grand Inquisitor, was a Sith from this interregnum period.An interesting find, Sirona.Malvus states as he keys the holocron to deactivate. For a moment, the Hierarch stares at it before turning to Sirona.To see you survived your first true test is a sign that you have potential, Sirona. Your time with the Blackguard has not dulled that edge.Sirona's promise was now fully assured. Before, the Sith was ready to either accept in continuing her training or to throw her aside as a failed experiment. Now, more than ever, Malvus was determined to ensure she was properly trained and elevated to become a full-fledge Sith.For now, return to your chambers and meditate. Rest yourself. I will call for you when a new assignment comes up.He reaches forward to touch his apprentice's shoulder.You have done well. And those that have done well are rewarded.

The apprentice bowed her head as Malvus praised her efforts. And Sirona stood, returning the pack to her back, before speaking. Thank you, my Master. Though in my opinion, uncovering this previously lost lore is it's own reward. But I will return to my dorm for rest and to await your summons. With one last lingering and longing look at the carving projections, Darth Sirona took her leave of the Hierarch and began the short trip back to her chambers.

Darth Sirona had once again spent much of her free time in the Archives, ensconced in a nook she had found. A place most people didn't know about, but those who knew her best would know, and could find her. Here in her solitude she could do her own research in peace, away from any who held her in contempt, especially Monmouth. He had grown increasingly hostile toward her of late. The Seer seemed to go out of his way to belittle her and make her miserable. Books that she showed interest in were suddenly 'unavailable' for her to acquire, or he would deny her access for no reason beyond his say-so. It frustrated her but Sirona continued to show the respect his title afforded, but it was becoming increasingly difficult. For now though, what books she could get her hands on kept her company in the top level of the Archives.

You seemed to be the only capable one among your heretical following who knew how to vanish. Fanged Acropolis - Archives of the Conclave. The looks of confusion and surprise at his presence were certainly not unfounded, though he paid them little mind. He had been granted permission to be here. Only a fool sought a fight where there was none to be had. And a fool, he was not. Striding through the Archive to the red-skinned Sith, Millennial smirked at Malvus' comment."I have survived much worse than what the fabled Blackguard could throw at me, Malvus. The self appointed Sith'ari was the least of my concerns. Powerful though he may be, he is not infallible."The wizened human lowered his hood, revealing close cropped salt and pepper colored hair and the unmistakable third eye in the middle of his forehead."You may be so inclined to call me and my followers heretics, though just because we have differing beliefs doesn't make either one right or wrong. I am no more heretical to the Sith than you are, Malvus. My beliefs simply follow a more traditional route than yours."It was the truth. Being viewed as a heretic by one whose beliefs differed was inaccurate, to say the very least. Technically speaking, the newly founded beliefs that the Blackguard and now this Conclave adhered to was more heretical than Millennial's beliefs. But that was a purely academic discussion for another time. Discussing differing beliefs and the power those beliefs held over differing people was always an enjoyable discussion, but not at this time. No, he was here for his own reasons.

"You may be so inclined to call me and my followers heretics, though just because we have differing beliefs doesn't make either one right or wrong. I am no more heretical to the Sith than you are, Malvus. My beliefs simply follow a more traditional route than yours." The Sith Lord raised up a piece of parchment to some light, allowing the faded text to be seen better. Little nibbles were taken out of it by all sorts of creatures within the bowels of Mausoleum. At least the text could be restored in due time. The Hierarch wasn't ignoring Millennial, only doing his part for the Conclave and its future. Once the visitor had spoken, it was his turn to speak back.History is written by the victors though, Millennial. You and I both know that. Darth Bane killed off the Brotherhood of Darkness cause it was heresy to his Rule of One. His descendants sought to stamp out would-be pretenders and traitors. Darth Krayt was called a heretic by the ghosts of former Sith Lords, and yet his Rule of One endured time and time again.Malvus rolls up the scroll slowly before turning to look at the mutant Sith.But we did not meet here to discuss philosophy and beliefs. No, you came here for a different reason altogether.He sets down the parchment and gives his visitor his undivided attention.What do you want, Millennial?
