The Sith Lord sat in his meditation chamber in the fortress of Bast Castle. Outside, pounding rain bombarded the walls of the ruined structure, but Vader payed no attention. He was used to the never ending storm of Vjun. The gloom of the planets incessant monsoons actually enticed the evil cyborg. As a Sith Lord, Darth Vader would never again feel compassion, love, or understanding. As he meditated, he focused only inward; on his hatred, the deaths he has willingly brought about, and the power that had been stolen from him by, in his point of view, the Jedi. When he swore fealty to his Emperor, he did it to gain power, now it was for personal reasons: that he hunt down every last traitorous Jedi, and kill them.

In his meditations, he felt an annoying presence. Approaching was Captain Ozzel, a young and naïve man, who Vader kept from killing, due to being on the Emperors' good side.

"Lord Vader.", interrupted the foolish captain.

"Yes?" said the dark lord in his booming new voice. It had already been several months since the end of the Clone Wars, and Vader had become a prominent new figure with in the Galactic Empire.

And although Vader was forever entombed inside the bulky, black armor, he had made several modifications to it. Darth Vader was good with technology, always had been. The suit now featured better wiring, and Vader fixed the coloring effects to the helmet. He could now see in full color, as well as having installed night vision, thermal viewer, and ultraviolet spectrum into the goggles.

"My lord, you have an urgent message from the Emperor." said Ozzel, interrupting Vader from his mullings for the second time.

"Very well", responded the Sith, who then dismissed Captain Ozzel from his presence.

Darth Vader stood up, stepped out of his meditation chamber, and onto the holo-platform. There he was greeted by the croaking drawl of: "Rise, my apprentice, rise", from the Emperor.

Vader responded with the formal: "What is thy bidding, my master?"

The Emperor then spoke his instructions: "The padawan of Anakin Skywalker has been found. She has been spotted, living among the Wookies of Kashyyyk. You will go there, and destroy her."

"Yes, my master." was all that the Sith apprentice responded.
