INTERVIEWER - A moment of your time, my lord.

DARTH TYRANUS - I grant a moment.

INTERVIEWER - Thank you. First of all, how should I address you? Do you prefer Count Dooku or Darth Tyranus?

DARTH TYRANUS - Darth Tyranus will be fine. Everyone refers to me by my name. Only my master Lord Sidious
refers to me by my sith name.

INTERVIEWER - As you wish. If I may ask, why did you leave the jedi order, and "fall" to the dark side?

DARTH TYRANUS - No one "falls" to the dark side. I left the jedi order because, over the preceding years, I slowly
began to realize how corrupt and disillusioned they had become. They would accept corrupt governments. They would
abandon entire populations to war and death, in the name of the force. In addition, I came to learn that the jedi council
had fallen under the control of a Dark Lord called Darth Sidious. Naturally, in their arrogance, the jedi council refused
to believe and trust me.

INTERVIEWER - But why fall in with the sith?

DARTH TYRANUS - After I left the jedi order, I tracked and eventually found the Dark Lord Sidious.
I then realized that I had much more in common with Darth Sidious, than I ever had with the jedi.

INTERVIEWER - Very well. People want to know you as a person. Any hobbies or passions?

DARTH TYRANUS - As the "Count" title is an official title of the royal family on Serenno, I am quite proficient
in the arts of ballroom dancing and public speaking. I also like to collect artworks (paintings, statues, etc.)

INTERVIEWER - Do you have any favorite foods?

DARTH TYRANUS - I prefer wild game, as it has a richer, bold flavor. It suits my palate.

INTERVIEWER - As a member of the Serenno Royal Family, do you ever travel?

DARTH TYRANUS - Do you mean aside from Coruscant? I've been to several dozen inhabited worlds.
Sadly, not so much recently. I need to make more time for travel.

INTERVIEWER - From where did you graduate school, if I may ask?

DARTH TYRANUS - Northeastern Serenno State Technical University. I have a doctorate in political sciences.

INTERVIEWER - Thank you kindly for your time, Lord Tyranus.
