Ezra smirked at the sight of Thrawn. The Chiss stood proudly, red eyes observing Ezra closely. "Thrawn is it?" Ezra asked to which Thrawn gave a small nod. Ezra put his arms behind his back and slowly walked forward. "I see you have no fear. You don't fear us." Ezra paused as he came around him. "Fear me." He finished. Thrawn blinked and watched as Ezra slowly moved back to his original position. "I do not fear you because I have found you to be the path forward."
Ezra raised his left eyebrow. "Really?" Thrawn nodded. "So, you want to offer your services to me." Thrawn remained silent before he spoke. "I am more then adept at naval command. My tactics and strategy have often proved to be the best of the best." Ezra grinned. "Then Thrawn, I accept your services. But we must prepare for what's to come. And I, I have a plan. But lack the ships needed to carry it out." Thrawn nodded. "Then allow us to find ships for you to use and build up your monarch like empire." Ezra raised an eyebrow. "Us?" From the shadows, Hk emerged. "Me, and my droid, HK-47." Ezra smirked. "Very well. These coordinates will be where you can find me." Thrawn nodded and glanced down at them. "Delmosie. A world of great strategic importance. A wise choice for a capital world."

Palpatine stood quietly. His new apprentice, Darth Vader, had just left. With a smirk, he activated the hologram. "The time has come. Execute Order 66." He said, several Clones bowed while others remained stiff. Among them was Rex. "It will be done my lord." They replied before the call ended. Palpatine turned slightly and chuckled, walking to his small chamber on the side, he keyed in another number. The image of Commander Cody appeared. "Commander Cody, the time has come. Execute Order 66." Palpatine watched and waited for Cody to respond. "Your orders fall upon mute ears Chancellor. Find another dog to use your leash on." The image flickered away as swiftly as it had appeared. Palpatine shook with rage. "Darth Bridger, you traitorous child."

Obi-Wan stood at the bridge of his cruiser as they swiftly entered orbit. A small fleet was stationed above with several other ships. Among them were other Republic forces. "Commander Cody, what are your thoughts on our friend's intentions?" Cody shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know General, he seems to have good intentions, but I'm not sure if I can trust him." Obi Wan smirked and turned around. "Well, you're about to meet him in person." Cody sighed and followed Obi-Wan out.
They landed swiftly upon the planet in seconds. A simple ease to which they eyed the surrounding area. Walking forward, Obi-Wan noticed several other clones, among them included Commander Gree. "General Kenobi." He said as Obi-Wan walked past. "Commander." Obi-Wan replied as he kept moving forward.
He had already started to take in the decorative buildings and natural beauty of the capital city of Krimore. His eyes, however, layed upon the massive tower at the centre. Around it, a fortress was built. "That's a pretty large stronghold General." Obi-Wan shakes his head. "He is Mandalorian Cody. Don't forget that."
The two came to a stop at the gates where Jedi Master Depa Billaba and her padawn learner, Caleb Dume. "Master Kenobi." Depa and Caleb greeted him. Obi-Wan nodded. "Master Billaba, Padawn Dume." He replied.
The gates slowly opened to reveal Bail Organa. "Master Kenobi, Master Billaba, Padawn Dume, welcome to Delmosie, capital of The Phoenix Republic."
