The message concluded, and the comlink shut down. Undesirables. The Krath and Obelisk Orders are to be purged, and certain species were to be eliminated from within our ranks. A memory from his upbringing, it was reminiscent of the great Jedi purge, Order 66, which was orchestrated by Emperor Palpatine. The only difference now was that instead of massive amounts of clone troopers, it will be those within the Brotherhood ranks. Another thought that came to mind was the old Imperialist view of species-bias towards those that were deemed undesirable and shunned, and that was something he definitely didn’t want to be seen in that way.
His datapad chimed, foretelling of the new message that was waiting for him. Opening the message, she saw that it was a more detailed description of the Grand Masters plan. It told of what had already been put into motion, as well as what was planned for afterwards. At the bottom of the missive was a list of the undesirable species. He was taken aback by the list of those that were now deemed undesirable. He found that his own Clan had eight members that encompassed six of those species. Half of those were Journeyman and would be easy to dispatch, the rest would be more formidable and not so easily taken.
He knew that it wouldn’t take much to make those Journeymen disappear and make it look like an accident or a grave error on their part. Since they were new to the Clan, they haven’t had too big of a chance to make a name for themselves. But the other four, two Knights, an Augur, and an Adept. All friends, all either in positions of power or been in positions of power in the past.
Walking along the corridor, Armad felt himself looking around at the different species that made up the Clan and Warhost rosters. Every now and then, he would spy a species that was listed, and wondered if he could kill that particular being without raising too much of an alarm. Passing members of the Clan who were on the undesirable list gave him pause, making him question his loyalties.
Could he really do it kill his own friends? I mean it IS a directive from the Grand Master, but killing friends. That is something that he didn’t think he could actually do. But he didn’t want to outright refuse to not follow a Dark Council directive. So what could he do, what would he do? Armad had no clue. He could always start with the Journeymen, but if he were found out then the others could ban together, that would be unfortunate. He wondered whether the rest of the Clan was having the same dilemma that he was facing now. He’d thought of trying to broach the subject with others. But he didn’t know how he would even start that conversation.
Realizing that he definitely needed guidance, Armad decided to seek out a member of the Summit, whether his own House or the Clan’s, to see what their plan was for this new directive. But in the intervening time, Armad was just going to do nothing. He wasn’t going to kill any members of his Clan, other Clans undesirables maybe, but only if they encroached on Naga Sadow’s territory. But if a Sadowan did approach him, he wasn’t going aid them in any way, even if they were looking for help or sanctuary, he would turn them away, offering no assistance.
