Darkblade marveled at the sights before him, the entire temple had been a sight to behold and truly respect the power of the Dark Side. As he heard footsteps behind him, the Seeker felt the very familiar Force presence of the Marauder approaching him. The light steps of the young Twi’lek were catlike, almost as if Tasha was trying to sneak up on the Anzat.
Their relationship had soured as Darkblade had listened to his instincts and fed on her on Dentavii Prime a few months ago. Whilst both of them had matured and moved on, there had never been a word spoken about those events after it had happened. Now, as equals and Quaestors of their respective House in Naga Sadow, it was time to take this opportunity to talk and settle their past history once and for all. This was not only for themselves, but also for the Clan. Two opposing Quaestors wanting to slaughter each other was not good for Clan morale.
The calm atmosphere of the Twi’lek amused the Anzat, knowing full well how hard it was to maintain such a composure standing before someone you disliked.
“It is nice to finally meet you again, Tasha’Vel Versea.” Darkblade spoke slowly and deliberately as he turned to face her and bowing slightly. The sign of respect catching the female off guard as she quickly returned the gesture.
Tasha was truly a sight to behold. Her blue skin had always attracted the young Anzat, one of the main reasons he had succumbed to feeding on her so many months ago. Her lekku seemed to dance and taunt him with every slight movement the Marauder made. Licking his lips, the Anzat breathed in deeply and allowed his proboscis to slither out from the pockets near his nose that they usually rested in.
“You smell delightful as always, I wonder if you taste any different than your Grandfather’s spirit who sacrificed himself to preserve your life force?” Darkblade asked quizzically with a threatening smile.
The air around the two Quaestors grew with tension, the Dark Side emanating radiantly from the Anzat as he stood before the Twi’lek.
“I’ll have you know I studied every single part of your anatomy, Anzat. I will be able to inflict pain on you like you have never felt before if you attempt to feed on me or anyone under my protection. I wasn’t strong enough back on Dentavii Prime, and paid the ultimate sacrifice for that. Now I am educated in your ways and do not wish to be easy prey again.” Tasha responded nonchalantly, placing her hands on her hips as she looked into the eyes of Darkblade.
That's interesting, the Anzat thought to himself as he raised an eyebrow.
“An impressive place you picked out to meet.” The Seeker stated as he started to walk towards the dias of one of the thrones once occupied by the Masters of Dread. Walking up the few steps to the chair, he reached out and caressed the throne with his hands, feeling the edges carved with precision. The armrests were smooth and felt cold, yet seemed to pull the Dark Jedi ever closer to it. He turned and sat down, slumped backwards and rested his arms lazily on the throne.
“This suites me well doesn’t it?” Darkblade asked with a laugh.
“Only if you want to rule nothing and become a forgotten memory of the past.” Tasha retorted. Grinning as she noticed a flash of anger pass across the face of the Anzat.
“I have asked you here for one reason only. We are to settle our differences in a duel, deciding which of us is actually the better. We are here now at equal strength, nothing stands in our way to distract us, and I would like nothing more to put you in your place where you belong, Anzat.” The blue Twi’lek spat the last word with clear contempt in her voice.
Darkblade caught the familiar sight of the Marauder’s Echani blade as Tasha reached into her robes and procured her lightsaber. Taking a stance that left little room for further talk, Tasha’Vel Versea stood waiting for Darkblade to meet her as she ignited her crimson red blade. Pointing it towards Darkblade, she issued the challenge silently.
The Anzat smiled down on the Quaestor of Marka Ragnos. As he slumped forwards, he placed his elbows on his knees and folded his hands underneath his chin as he rested it on them. Cocking his head slightly to the left he spoke words that sent a chill down Tasha’s spine.
“Let’s hope the sacrifice of your Grandfather was not in vain. As Quaestor it would be unnecessary to kill each other, the duel will last until one of us is no longer in state to fight, the last one standing proclaimed the winner.” The Dark Jedi said.
Standing up from the throne, the symbol of power only served to bolster the Anzat’s already high spirit’s but failed to realize that the duel had already started once he spoke his first words.
A cry of anger left the lips of the Twi’lek, as she thrust out her hand towards the Anzat and shot out lightning from her fingertips. The mention of her Grandfather had stirred up many memories, which swallowed her in anger and grief. This only served to fuel the Force lightning as it arced across the gap to strike the cocky Seeker full on.
Syntax:
There were a bunch of minor errors all over this post. One thing that jumped out is that you have a tendency to use participles where you either need a main verb to make the sentence grammatical, or just need something past tense:
There were also a few issues with punctuating dialogue. There's a little advice on this on the wiki, but you can always hit me up for more if it's still unclear.
And there were a few simple typos:
Lastly, "Grandfather" doesn't really need to be capitalized here, but since you did it consistently that's not really a problem.
Story:
There's a question I ask myself whenever I grade an opening post: "Why do I care?" You did a solid job answering that. I don't have the background in CNS events and lore that you two do, but even still you made it clear why Tasha and Darkblade have come to Oricon and why this fight needs to happen. You ended the post at a great place as well.
Realism:
No errors that I spotted.
Continuity:
No errors.
