Chapter 14: Consequences
– Sarik –
100cp gained, 250cp total.
As we fly toward Balmorra, I hum in satisfaction at the sight of my points. Well, it's either that or the way that Kory is sucking my cock.
[Staff of the Horned One] - 400cp, 150cp needed.
In the claws of a certain rat known as Thanquol is a staff of blackened wood, with the warpstone crest of a long-dead Lord of Decay fixed atop of it with two jingling bells. This staff, long believed to have been grasp-held by the first Grey Seer, has had a colourful history, changing hands through betrayals many times over until finally, this potent staff came to Thanquol's claws. With this, he stands as a speaker for the Great Horned Rat.
Except now, even that is called into question, for you bear a duplicate. Or is his the duplicate, and yours the original? Regardless, you have the Staff of the Horned One - a potent magical weapon that magnifies the power of any spell you cast through it, turning a blast of warp-lightning into a torrential beam. But its true power is as a symbol of station: Whilst you hold the staff, your words have a level of gravity that force even those that despise your very existence - such as the dwarf-things and leaders of men - to cease action and hear your words.
Locked in instantly. A staff to further enhance my Lore spells? I just turned a planet into a ruined, warp-infected wasteland even without it. It's worth waiting for, but then I pause. Wait? I'm a fucking Sith, I don't wait for anything.
There's still some time before we get to Balmorra, and I can start the next step in my plan. Well, Kory first then I'll get to work getting my staff.
– Ki Sazen – Later –
Sarik had kept his word, and provided her exactly what he'd promised. She looked up into the dark green storm above Olaris, her new home, smiling grimly. Nobody would threaten her followers again. This was their home now.
Sarik had begun teaching her how to use the Lore of Plagues for herself, but it had been humbling to see just how much stronger he was. Even if it had taken prep work, he had caused a storm of mythical proportions. This was a feat that future generations would talk about in the same tone as Darth Nihilus' deeds.
Sarik claimed that the storm would rage for thousands of years, empowered by the wound in the Force he had created. The Republic could not come for her people; she had delivered her cult to the promised land as she'd sworn she would.
This land was savage, twisted by the Warp as Sarik described it, but it was theirs. They simply needed to tame it, which they would do with Sarik's gifts. The runes on her body and on the bodies of her most trusted followers would allow them to survive and thrive in this land.
But as Olaris was theirs, it had come at a price. Olaris belonged to her, but she belonged to another.
Tossed onto the former governor's desk, Ki gave Sarik a hungry look as she pulled her pants off and tossed them aside, watching him remove his robe. He'd made his desire for her clear as he'd carved the rune into her body, and she wasn't against the idea. Sarik was incredibly powerful, and she'd known that learning under him would mean putting herself under his control.
It was worth it.
He wasted no time, forcibly spreading her legs and gripping her hips. With no foreplay, he pulled her closer as he slammed his fat, red cock into her virgin pussy. She didn't exactly get much action as a Jedi, and the Nikto were both too devout and just not her type for her to lay with them.
She let out a squeak as she got her first taste of sex, embarrassed by the noise as Sarik grinned and captured her lips. Fucking on Saresh's desk was just a final fuck you to the Republic, and she could appreciate the pettiness as Sarik groped her ass as he began to ruthlessly thrust into her tight cunt.
If he knew this was her first time, he didn't particularly care or give her time to adapt. She preferred it that way. She wasn't some weak little girl that needed coddling. Her first time was rough, forceful and domineering as Sarik claimed his prize.
Moaning into his mouth, she gasped as he pulled out and flipped her over, one hand holding her head against the desk, her breasts squashed against the metal as he sheathed himself back inside her once again. With this new position, he could fuck her faster and harder, truly claiming her.
She had to wonder what her former Jedi allies thought of her now. She'd been the scapegoat for Taris, to disguise the Empire's participation. Her former master had probably seen the footage of her attacking Taris, and now she was taking the Sith cock of her new master. Sarik was bound for greatness, and she intended to ride to the top with him.
Even if it meant he got to ride her.
Still, she quickly realised that sex was fun. Sith really did have the right idea. Passion was good.
– Sarik –
Fucking girls gets me points, and Ki moans under me as I rail her over Saresh's desk. Some girls are worth more, and I don't really know why. Still, Ki should be a good start, no matter what.
The office where Leontyne once planned the complete restoration of Taris is filled with her moans and the rhythmic clapping of our bodies meeting. Ki is fun, and I do somewhat like the arrogant little Zabrak. I do hope that she doesn't get mutated into an abomination by the Lore of Plagues I'm teaching her, because it would be a shame to lose this kinky little bitch.
"What would your cult think if they could see you now?" I ask, spanking Ki's perky ass as she moans. "Their saviour, their goddess, taking her new master's cock so obediently."
"W-who cares what they think? I am their goddess, and they only need to look up to see your power," Ki growls, her hips moving back to meet my thrusts. "They cannot judge me, now keep fucking me, master."
She's learning fast. She'll make a fine Sith in time.
"Good girl," I praise, kissing the back of her neck as I grip her hips tighter, slamming my hips forward as I rut into her. "You're a Sith now, and trust me, this is nothing compared to what some Sith get up to for fun."
She lets out a small laugh at that in between her gasps and moans. She thinks I'm joking.
I am not.
With a grunt, I sheath myself inside her and groan, unleashing my seed into her pussy. For a moment, she gets annoyed at me cumming inside without asking, but with my marks on her body, I soothe that anger and push her mind to see it as a good thing to be bred by such a powerful Sith. As I said, Ki is a test. She's testing my Lore of Plagues, the Rune of Corruption, and finally, she's a test subject for how much influence I can apply to my servant's minds.
Feat Achieved: Fuck Ki Sazen (50cp). 300cp total. 100cp needed for [Staff of the Horned One]
I may have my points, but I don't want to leave her with only a single climax. I have my pride to consider, and Ki is learning to appreciate the joys of passion. Where was Leontyne's bedroom again?
– Later –
Hm. Curious.
I'd like to go on record and say that I do not find female Nikto particularly attractive. Their rough, scaled skin isn't particularly pleasurable.
Looking over the three naked Nikto lying on the bed, I fix my robes as I watch my seed leak from each of them. Ki herself lays between them, clearly having been the focus of my attention from how much semen is coating her body.
Not a single point for any of the three. Some girls, like Vette, are worth 100 points. Some are worth 50, like Ki and Leontyne. Some aren't worth any at all. Is it their power? Maybe, Leontyne may be weak physically but political power is still power. But then why is Kory worth 100? She was nothing when I claimed her. Why was Vette worth 100 when she isn't Force sensitive? No, I'm missing something here.
"I'll be back to continue your training soon," I finally say, dressing myself. Ki looks up at me tiredly. She's excited by the prospect but somewhat… worn out, which gives me a moment of pride.
"Of course, Master. I need to help my followers settle in, anyway," Ki agrees, panting slightly after her deflowerment. "Shall I prepare more of my female followers for you?"
After a moment, I nod.
"Do so," I agree. Ki sees the benefit of having her cult breed force-sensitive children. That's how I explained this. These three have each been repeatedly creampied with the intention of me breeding them. I'm thinking in the long term, and it's not uncommon for Sith to have a collection of slaves for the single purpose of breeding as many children as possible. Of course, many die at the hands of those children but I plan to avoid that part.
Yes, I had to look up if a Nikto could be bred by a Pureblood Sith. The answer was a resounding yes, as it appears we are… compatible with most species.
Under my guidance, Ki has had the few survivors of our attack rounded up and enslaved, to serve her cult and make their life here even more comfortable. The female slaves will be bred by the male cultists, because having more numbers is always good.
I summoned Jansa and traded a lot of the property we found in Olaris for credits and supplies to ensure that her cult has all that it needs to thrive, as we don't know if hunting or farming on Taris is possible or safe yet. Something Ki will be testing with the more expendable slaves.
In time, I'm going to have more slaves brought here to mine the naturally-forming Warpstone, and Ki knows that as my lover and Apprentice, she'll rule Taris in my stead. Her cult will flourish as long as I am happy with her. She'll have the power and respect she's long desired, a worthy lover and a home for her devoted followers.
All she has to do is bend the knee, which is getting more attractive in her mind despite her ego.
Pulling her to me with the Force, she yelps before she moans into the rough, domineering kiss I place on her lips. As I do, I use our bond to push another Lore of Plagues spell into her mind, making her eyes widen at the influx of knowledge. Her reward for her obedience, something she clearly understands as I break the kiss and she gives me a small smirk.
Plus, the more I give her, the faster I'll learn if she's going to mutate into an unholy, warp-twisted diseased abomination. I am ninety percent sure that my Rune will negate the mutations but it's better that I find out quickly.
– Later –
"Do you have any idea how much attention you've drawn with this?" Mara asks, making me blink. I only came back to the ship to get some things on my quest for more points. "Whatever the Dark Council expected, whatever the Emperor himself expected, this wasn't it. You've sent the entire galaxy into uproar."
"Well, I think it's safe to say that the Jedi can't predict my actions, so test successful," I drawl, making her snort as she leans against the wall. I swear I just walked past that spot, and she wasn't there. I have got to find a way to detect her.
"Besides the fact you almost reignited the war? Yeah, I'd say the test was a success. Your little game with Sazen and her cult has worked to masquerade your part in this, but if the Republic learn that a Sith was behind this? War is the only possible outcome," Mara says, making me nod. "The Dark Council knows it was you, as does Imperial Intelligence, but beyond that, we're playing dumb. The truth will come out in time. I imagine the SIS are already working on discovering the true culprit. Of course, they might play dumb as well. The Republic aren't ready for a reignited war either."
"Out of curiosity, how much shit am I in?" I ask, well aware that I just put one hell of a spotlight on myself as she laughs.
"Well, I think every member of the Dark Council is currently either planning to kill you, steal your powers or use you for their own ambitions, except maybe Darth Marr and Jadus. Marr approves of you giving the Republic such a black eye. Jadus finds the fear you've spread inspiring," Mara admits. "But they aren't the ones you're truly worried about, are they?"
I don't respond beyond a shrug of agreement.
"You felt the connection in my mind when you gave me the shield, didn't you?" Mara asks, and I nod.
"I made sure that my shield wouldn't block them out, especially if that presence is who I think it is," I admit, making her snort.
"Smart boy. You want to know what the Emperor thought of your little scheme?" Mara asks, dragging this out with a teasing smirk as I roll my eyes. "He's said nothing to me, but I could feel him watching, and I could feel his emotions when he learnt of the destruction of Taris. He was laughing."
"Is that a good thing?" I ask after a moment. That could be very good or extremely bad.
"I genuinely don't know. I've felt his rage, I've felt his satisfaction, but amusement? That's new, even for me," Mara admits. "He approves, I think. What this means for you, I couldn't tell you. For now, my orders have remained more or less the same. Follow you around and watch the chaos you leave in your wake."
"I'll try to put on a good show for you," I flirt, getting another laugh from her.
"It might be better if you stay on Balmorra for a little while. You haven't been summoned to Dromund Kaas yet, but that's because the Dark Council have been arguing about what to do with you. Frankly, they've had more meetings in the short time since Taris than in the past month," Mara snorts, amusement clear on her face. "So far, some want you dead before you can grow any stronger, some want you to repeat this trick on Coruscant, and the rest want to pry your secrets from you. This Lore of Ruin that you're teaching Kory and now the Lore of Plagues you are teaching Ki are of particular interest."
"That's why I'm teaching them, to prove the knowledge can be shared. Frankly, the Lore of Plagues is the most dangerous to the user. I like Ki, but if anyone is going to get mutated, I'd rather it be her," I admit with a shameless shrug.
"You gave her a different rune than the one you put on your slaves, didn't you?" Mara asks, and once more I have to wonder just how much she has seen.
"The one I put on my slaves is the Mark of Tzeentch. It increases their intelligence and allows me to pass on knowledge faster while also giving me a backdoor into their minds. It does more for me, so I've been studying how it affects the girls," I admit. "The one I gave to Ki is called the Caryll Rune of Corruption. Despite the name, it actually protects the bearer from Corruption, giving them an immunity to most diseases and granting them a passive healing effect. That's the problem with the Lore of Plagues: you're channelling each and every plague through your body. Without the Rune, you'd destroy yourself trying to use them. Of course, this is also my first time placing this Rune on someone, so Ki remains a test subject. If she can survive it, I can start to give it to everyone else but I don't want all my pets to become twisted abominations because I rushed things."
I think being more open with Mara is my best bet, because I'm being open with the Emperor by association. The last thing I want is the Emperor coming for me. I don't know if his amusement is good, but I'd rather he be pleased by me than decide that I'm an issue.
"And here I thought you liked your new Apprentice. You are a bold one, taking on two Apprentices when you're still an Apprentice yourself," Mara says, making me shrug.
"Zash doesn't mind. The fact is, we don't know if the Lores are safe to use and as much as Darth Zash would like to learn them herself, she's not eager to die because she rushed into it," I admit, watching her snort.
"This, from the woman who stuffed a warpstone into her mouth out of fear that I'd take them away from her?" Mara asks with an amused sigh. "So, when are you going to show me the secret place you keep vanishing into?"
"Honestly, I assumed you'd already snuck in," I admit, making her laugh again.
"No. I tried when you took Kory and Vette there. I couldn't sneak in," Mara admits shamelessly. "I take it that's where you've stuffed your captives?"
"Jedi Knight Aayla Secura, Senator Leontyne Saresh and Sergeant Elara Dorne, a defector who carried more than a few Imperial secrets into the hands of the enemy. What can I say? I'm an overachiever," I boast a little.
"All females and two Twi'leks," Mara points out, and I just shrug shamelessly. "What I want to know is why does the Holocron give you powers for sex?"
"You have been paying attention," I admit, making her smirk.
"You zone out sometimes, focusing on something only you can see. Sometimes you get new powers or goodies right afterwards," Mara explains easily.
"It's not just sex, but you're not wrong. Maybe the Holocron's creator was a pervert," I say with a shrug. "And sex alone isn't enough. It needs to be unique partners. I've fucked Vette plenty of times but only gained something from it the first time. Plus, how much I get from each girl varies. Some are worth more, some are worth nothing."
"Ah, so you're not just thinking with your dick, collecting so many female pets," Mara teases again. "I wonder how much I'd be worth."
"Care to find out?" I ask with a raised eyebrow, getting a sultry smirk back.
"Not yet. You're impressing me, Sarik, but you haven't impressed me that much," Mara teases. "Imperial Intelligence has finished testing your little truth serum, and they want more. A lot more. I believe they're planning on sending an agent to negotiate for more. You're becoming quite the little dealer, aren't you? The only source of these fancy runes, warpstone and truth serum."
"It's the logical path. I want my gifts to benefit the Empire, but giving it away for free is the height of stupidity," I admit easily.
"True. They also sent a report. You've attracted so much attention that the Sixth Line has been sent to investigate the truth behind Taris," Mara explains, making me frown.
"The Sixth Line?" I ask.
"A faction of more militant Jedi working with the Republic SIS. Their name comes from the sixth line that they've added to their own personal Jedi Code. 'There is no contemplation, there is only duty.' It's their nice little excuse for why they commit such ruthless acts like assassination, sabotage or worse," Mara says, a sneer on her lips. "Jedi do love their excuses. They cling to their Code right up until it's no longer convenient to do so. The Sixth Line doesn't take orders from the Jedi Council, having broken off and gone 'rogue'. They know Ki didn't do this, but they don't know who the true culprit was. If they find out, expect to have a dozen ruthless Jedi Masters coming down on you. The Sixth Line has taken out Dark Council members before. They're no joke."
"How likely do you think it is that they'll find out?" I ask, making Mara laugh.
"I give it a month if you're lucky. Too many people in the Empire know it was you, and word spreads fast. It will reach the Republic sooner rather than later. The Republic itself isn't likely to react to the knowledge immediately, but the moment the rumours reach them, the Sixth Line will come for you," Mara warns.
"And they won't be the only ones," I agree. "Then I had better be ready, hadn't I?"
"Like you said, you better put on one hell of a show. Taris was a message to the galaxy about your power, and the galaxy listened," Mara agrees. "Do you want my advice?"
"Of course," I agree.
"Crush the Balmorran Resistance brutally. Send a message that you aren't to be challenged. Break them and make anyone who would have come for you, Sith or Jedi, Republic or Empire, think twice. If you don't, you'll be torn apart by everyone who wants a piece of you. Even the gangs and cartels will want a piece when they find out about the stuff you can make. Make it clear that going after you is going to be costly," Mara suggests simply.
Juno's announcement that we're approaching Balmorra makes me turn for a second, but as I look back to Mara to respond, I sigh. I really need a way to see through her invisibility bullshit.
Elara and Aayla don't know that they have barely avoided being added to my Feats list, but I'll get them sooner rather than later.
– Also Sarik –
Being able to be in two places at once is a gift from the Force itself. I look over the ship that I have procured. It belonged to a group trying to bring supplies to the Resistance, their plague-ridden corpses now tossed to the Colicoids.
"I have to say, you are an unusual client," Jansa admits as she looks over her ship. "Most would be too afraid to let a Dremora loose. I can't tell if you're brave or foolish."
"Call this a test run," I say, my voice altered by my stony body. "Can you fly this?"
I simply don't have time to run around picking up slaves, especially ones as irrelevant as Vette's family.
"That won't be a problem. I can't, but I have slaves in stock that can. Very well, I accept the renegotiation of our contract. I will arrange for the purchase and delivery of Diida and Tivva. I must admit that I am looking forward to being able to spend time in Nar Shaddaa. It's a veritable feast for someone like me," Jansa says with a small, dangerous smile. "I normally have to function through agents to get my stock. With our new contract, you can expect my stock to expand rapidly. You don't mind me taking the Hutts for all they have, do you?"
"I'm counting on it. I am no real negotiator, but something tells me they aren't ready for you," I admit, making her laugh.
"I've been doing this for millions of years. I am a literal demon that chose mercantile as my craft. If the Hutts aren't crying as I take their entire life savings, I've failed myself," Jansa says dangerously. "Besides, if they annoy me too much, I'll just have them killed. I do have a fine selection of combat slaves, after all. You have no idea what you've set loose into the galaxy."
"I have a decent idea," I counter. "That's the point."
"You know, Sarik? I think you're my favourite client so far," Jansa says, going through her catalogue as she procures a crew for her ship. "Since I'm in such a good mood, I'll even give you a discount on future purchases. You get 0.01 percent off all future goods."
"How gracious," I reply with a chuckle. Realistically, in the grand scheme of things, that might save me a small fortune. Some of her goods are very expensive. "Now go and ruin some Hutts' lives."

Author's Note: No vote this time. I couldn't think of one, and I wasn't even planning on writing today anyway. But you know how that goes.
