House Oriens Obscurum Aedile Report #6
25 April 2007
Ashura Isradia looked around his Aedile office. Most of his belongings that he had brought in to decorate the office to add that personal touch had been placed in boxes to be moved back into his quarters. His time as being assistant leader of House Oriens Obscurum was coming to an end, a choice that he had made.
It wasnt that the Tusken Raider had any quarrels with the job. In fact he had learned a lot while Aedile, a lot more than he had done as Envoy of the House. It was just things were changing, he could feel it. The abyss that he had been circling for sometime now was ebbing ever closer and it was only a matter of time before the Tusken was swallowed whole. This change in him was effecting how he handled his job. Ashura couldnt allow it to consume him without a fight.
The Warrior had already informed the Quaestor, Consul, and Proconsul of his resignation, however agreed to hold off leaving until Epis d'Tana had returned from an offworld mission, and a suitable replacement had been picked. Ashura grinned slightly. He already had a feeling that the Rollmaster/Envoy, Drodik al'Tor, would take his place. He also knew that the open position of Rollmaster was his if he wanted.
The Sith Warrior thought back to the time he had spent on Tatooine, he had taken a leave of absence to settle some family matters back home. It had been there, that he had seen the vision that led him to his choice of standing down as Aedile.
The Abyssal Blacksmith was almost upon him.
_Flashback
Tatooine, midday, and Ashura had been training with his fellow tribal warriors. The Tusken Warlord was dressed in full Tusken gear. His mind deeply focused the ancient martial art of the Krayt Kata, based upon the actions and movements of the Krayt dragons.
The vision had come while he had been meditating. Megos stood on the edge of the Tatooine cliffs, where the caves of the Ghorfas (the ancestors of the Sandpeople) were located. In front of him was the abyss, calling to him. Ashura had resisted the call for a long time now, but not through fear of what would happen to him. It just had never been the right time.
Now, like the many times before he had stood upon the edge. A heighten sense surrounded him. The Tusken would feel his steady heart beat. His slow, steady breathing, but most of all he felt the Dark Side around him, within him, consuming him.
Anger
Hate
Rage
But most of all:
POWER
And it was all his for the taking. All Ashura needed to do was let the abyss take him. He felt his whole body lean forward. His arms rose up, as he leaned off the cliff, and ready to fall into the awaiting Darkness
End Flashback_
Ash banged on his desk with his fist, as the anger swelled more and more. He stood breathing heavily as he allowed the Dark Side of the Force to engulf every cell within his body. His mind focused on the desk, and a moment later it was crushed under the telekinetic weight that Sith had placed on it. Isradia swore in his native Tusken language (which sounded more like a weird grunt), he had let his anger get the better of him. He made a mental note to replace the desk with a new one.
The Warrior turned around and headed towards the door, and headed out. He knew his place was here, within Oriens Obscurum, within Arcona. Only here could the Sith learn to control the darkness that was oh so close to taking him, and make him something else.
Perhaps, he would join one of the Battleteams? The sensation to kill, to end life was so great that it was enough for Ashura to think about going on a killing spree again, the return of the Dark Tusken Raider, and what better use than to put this killer to work for Arcona, for Oriens Obscurum.
Dark Greetings Oriens Obscurum,
This will be my last Aedile report that you will see for a while. The reason for why I am standing down has to do with University, as the coursework has started to load up on me, and I will have begun to start neglecting the responsibilities of being Aedile. So until I finish University, which ends in October, I wont be taking any positions within the House Summit.
Ive talked with Alex, Strat, and Tim. And we already have someone lined up to take over from me. I wont be mentioning any names, as I dont want to jinx it. Heh. So it wont be long until I join the rest of you as a hard working member.
However, until then, I still have a job to do. So lets get too it folks!
This report covers what has happened from 17th March to the 25th April. And believe me ladies and gentlemen, when I say it is a whooper of a report, so less of me telling you about it.
READ ON!!! READ ON!!!

New Competition
Title: Bas-Tyra Motto
Specifics:
It has come to my attention that Bas-Tyra has changed over the past few
months and so needs a new motto/war cry. I talked to Callus about it and
he has asked me to hold this little competition, as I am the oldest
Bas-Tyra member, being one of the very first to join.
This is your chance to leave a mark on your beloved battle team. I want to
see what Bas-Tyra represents to you.
I would like to see a submission from each of you, and in all seriousness,
it isn't hard to come up with a motto. And, who knows, you might just end
up with a medal.

Well, I guess this is the end. The next Aedile report you get will be from my replacement. But I just cant end this report without highlighting the member, who I think has been the most active between my previous report, and this one.
So, can we all put our hands together, and congratulate Protector Kaldar, who joined us as an Apprentice, and during his short time with us has already completed fourteen (14) SA Exams, and been promoted three (3) times.
Kaldar, find yourself a good Master, and you will no doubt be on the fast track to DJK. Keep up the good work, youngling. You make House Oriens Obscurum proud with your achievements and activity.
Normally, this is the part I say: Remember! Feel free to e-mail me at [Log in to view e-mail addresses] if you have any questions or queries at all.
So, please do Im still on the clock, and will ensure that everything is passed along to my successor.
In Darkness,
Warrior Ashura Isradia
Aedile of Oriens Obscurum
