Sisters in Arms... Business [MM7]

[Aphr Ahaya]

There was a small frown "As a last resort maybe...but not like Zhorrid. She does it for entertainment."

[Moyr Ahaya]

"No, not like her. What she does is senseless and wasteful. It lessens the gravity of taking life. We owe at least this much to those we kill, to have a reason and a purpose behind it, not just a self-indulgent whim."

[Aphr Ahaya]

Aphr nodded "Exactly. I haven't met another Sith like her here at all, so perhaps she's just a minority in this."

[Moyr Ahaya]

"She's a deeply disturbed girl with unresolved daddy issues. I am unsure if she knows what she wants. I offered to her my assistance in securing a title of a Darth for her, but she just got furious, preferring to consider me a rival. Whatever swirls in her head, it makes her petty, wasteful and without vision."

[Aphr Ahaya]

"It also makes her unpredictable and dangerous, which makes me worry about you more as she doesn't view me as a rival. Likely because I don't appear as a threat" Aphr frowned

[Moyr Ahaya]

"Honestly I was worried far more when it was the other way around, that night before the Viper when she was ready to murder you." Moyr sighed. "I'll be all right. I believe in the Force. It has saved my life so many times that I feel my path is true."

[Aphr Ahaya]

"Mm...I wasn't really fond of that moment either" Aphr frowned more "can't we just...I don't know, get away from her?"

[Moyr Ahaya]

"This is a good idea, potentially. I will return to the Imperial Space after these negotiations. But where do you plan to go, dear? With me?"

[Aphr Ahaya]

"I'm leaving here. Beyond that, I don't know. Can I go with you?" Aphr asked honestly

[Moyr Ahaya]

"Yes, at least for a time. I don't know if you'll be able to go everywhere I have to go in the months to come. But unless you maintain apprenticeship with a Sith Lord you'll have to be enrolled into the Academy on Korriban. This is the fate of all Force-sensitives in the Empire, they must be trained or die." Moyr honestly replied. "Dromund Kaas and Yavin are jungle worlds, Ziost is frigid, but Korriban is mostly a desert not unlike Ryloth. I felt more at home there than I feel here."

[Aphr Ahaya]

"I guess I really need to consider my future now" Aphr said with a chuckle "I don't know what I intend to do. I know I'd like to learn more of the Force, and continue training, but there is more to do than that...like catching up on five years lost with my sister."

[Moyr Ahaya]

"No-one will give us peace to cherish our reunion if we don't make it ourselves, Aphr. The time here on Nar Shaddaa is like a vacation. Once these hopeless peace talks are concluded, I'll have new challenges at my Master's behest."

[Aphr Ahaya]

"Zhorrid, or your actual missing master?" Aphr asked, curious

[Moyr Ahaya]

"My never-really-missing master, dear. The only true one." Moyr replied with a wry smile.

[Aphr Ahaya]

"Would hiding be a better way of referring to it then?" Aphr asked with a chuckle "the one that torments Zhorrid?"

[Moyr Ahaya]

"Elsewhere occupied." Moyr smirked. "But it won't be lasting forever."

[Aphr Ahaya]

"Do you know what will happen when your master returns?" Aphr was clearly concerned about something

[Moyr Ahaya]

"He's unpredictable. Though if there is any method to his unpredictability, he will probably give me some assignment nobody expects me to be on." Moyr felt it, but chose to sound positive.

[Aphr Ahaya]

"He doesn't sound that much better" Aphr commented

[Moyr Ahaya]

"He's the man I owe my life to. And he's been a real tutor, thoughtful and purposeful. His lessons aren't easy, but they are real, and they make me a better Sith. When I look at Zhorrid and compare her to him I think that genetics works in funny ways sometimes."

[Aphr Ahaya]

"He sounds like a strange contradiction" Aphr said with a chuckle "harsh and testing, but for a proper purpose instead of for chaotic reasoning. I would have preferred to meet him instead of her."

[Moyr Ahaya]

"I would prefer the same thing for you, dear. To have a master you could work with, have a sense of purpose and fulfilment. Hence I'd be most happy if you got rid of Zhorrid and just entered the Academy. You'd have two months to bring the attention of one of the Dark Councillors to your talents. And there are those who I really respect. Marr, Malgus, Hoshi, Vengean, even Vowrawn." She smirked. "My master has made himself temporarily unavailable but who knows what he will decide next."

[Aphr Ahaya]

"You make it sound like getting rid of Zhorrid is easy" Aphr chuckled "I don't believe we would be well suited at all, but while my sister needs time I shall continue to entertain her. Not that I particularly enjoy that."

[Moyr Ahaya]

"Her claim to you turns nil if you board the Academy. Her pestering of me turns nil once I leave this place. It won't last much longer, dear."

[Aphr Ahaya]

"I'm not concerned about her claim. She doesn't seem like the person that'll just give up, more like someone who would be offended by our actions and want to get revenge" Aphr frowned
