Shorter chapter than the 1st one, but this is kind of an "in-between" chapter. I will hopefully have Chapter 3 done by Thursday the 12th or Saturday the 14th. The next chapter will be after the final mission of the 3rd Chapter in the games (without Rise of the Hutt Cartel or Galactic Starfighter - ie. Makeb, Ilum and other flashpoints).
The next time Sydrin and Rhen-Gahl met was on Corellia. Sydrin had heard through an unsecure comm channel that he would be on Corellia. She needed some advice when it came to the Emperor's Children and she assumed that Rhen-Gahl may have heard about it from his previous pursuits of knowledge, especially since he was Sith.
Sydrin knew that she had to find him fast, and she knew he would be somewhere within the city. The trouble was actually finding him. So she went and found an imperial officer in the city and cut him down swiftly. It took a bit of time but she was able to find his holofrequency, and she went to go call him.
While Rhen-Gahl was heading for a meeting with Moff Pyron, his holocom went off. Talos who was accompanying him, went on to check on some of the gear, giving him some privacy. "Who is this calling me?" He said.
"You may not remember me, but we met on Taris. You mentioned how you were not your typical Sith and how you strive to learn. I wish to ask you for help that maybe only you could help me with." Sydrin said.
"I do remember you. Sydrin was it? Well I would love to chat about whatever you wish to know, however, I am in kind of a bind and will need to keep this short." Rhen-Gahl said.
"Well, if you require help, perhaps a trade, I help you if you help me." Sydrin said back.
"I wish it were that simple. I am partaking in an ancient Sith Rite, known as the Kaggath. Outside help is considered a breach of tradition, and would have me be executed." Rhen-Gahl said to Sydrin.
"Is this involving this Thanaton person you spoke of the last time we met?" She said.
"Yes it is. Perhaps someday I shall tell you about it. That of course is assuming I live long enough to see it through. Now, what do you wish to know?" He asked.
"Have you ever heard of the Children of the Emperor? I am here to uproot them from Corellia, and I would like to know as much about them as possible." She asked.
"Well, that is something I have not heard too much about. However I do know that these children are raised from birth to be Sith, being taken from their homes when young and growing up believing that the Emperor is really their father. Most of the children don't even know that they are Children of the Emperor, and even Jedi could be under his influence. Only the Emperor could wake them up when the time comes." He said.
"What do I do to stop them and break that connection?" She asked.
"Well first you would have to find them. Apparently, the 'First Son' has the power to shield them from the Jedi's sight. So that means he or she would have to be a powerful Jedi. Once you find them, I guess it just takes a tremendous amount of energy from the force. Look I hate to cut this call short, but I have to meet with a Moff about the Kaggath, and my battle is going to take its toll. So I must go. If I happen to survive, I will find some way to let you know of that." He said.
"Good luck, and may the force be with you." Sydrin said, and she cut the comm. Then she made her way deeper into the city.
