</p><p class="report" align="center">![-=-=-=- (Bar)](http://pages.prodigy.net/aysha_minion/_uimages/Bar.jpg)</p>
<p class="report">Acolyte Ktulu has acomplished much since he has returned to the Ebon Cloak Phyle, having become Dark Hand, gaining his promotion to Protector, and taking third place in the Phyle wars, all in one week. A very large congratulations to our newest Protector and one of the most active--if not the most active--members of our Phyle. Thank you for your effort!</p>
<p class="report">Novice Mako Gaiton has also been working hard since his return to Ebon Cloak, gaining himself the rank of Acolyte through his efforts and by throwing himself whole-heartedly into his work. Great job, Mako!</p>
<p class="report">The last date to submit your work for the Phyle's monthly topic, Specter of the Past, is this Monday, so be sure to get it sent in soon! Further details, as always, are available on the Ebon Cloak holosite.</p>
<p class="report">I am quite pleased with the effort I have seen from my three newest Tyros towards the Dark Allegiance vendetta against House Ektrosis, and I hope to see further work still. If everyone would be so kind I would appreciate a summary of what you have written towards your choosen piece(s) in the next day or so over the mailing list.</p>
<p class="report">I am also quite pleased with the fact that most of our Tyros have signed up for the message board. Acolyte Detori Koth and Protector Talons Pryde have not, but it is my hope that both sign up shortly. For those of you already signed up, keep posting. I'd like to have my money put to good use!</p>
<p class="report">That's pretty much it for this week. More Phyle-related news in the Dark Hand's report for this week.</p>

<p class="report">A sharp, shrill sound jolted Guardian Tirna Q'jira out of her mediative trance, and she searched around for the source of the sound, frowning her annoyance. She found it after a few moments, shutting off the now discovered alarm with a creative, if muttered, curse. "Now why in all the Empire's systems did I set my alarm..." she trailed off suddenly as she read the date. "Oh."</p>
<p class="report">With the realization that today was report day the Guardian Tetrarch of Ebon Cloak rose to her feet with a groan as her stiff muscles protested the sudden movement, and she carefully stretched out each one, grateful for the umpteenth time that she meditated without any clothing on. It just got in the way anyway.</p>
<p class="report">A knock sounded politely outside her door and the former Tetan princess straightened. "Yes? What is it?" she called.</p>
<p class="report">"It is I, mistress Q'jira."</p>
<p class="report">Korrin Alarr. The Guardian couldn't help but let herself grin. "Come in then," she called, bending down to roll up her meditation pallet. "Don't make me a rude hostess by having you stand outside the door."</p>
<p class="report">The door slid open and Korrin Alarr, J'Lek's former Head Steward and now hers, stepped into the room before pausing in momentary shock. "I do beg your pardon miss," he half stammered, apparently embarrassed to have walked in on her so. He turned around, both shutting the door behind him and averting his eyes. "I was not aware--"</p>
<p class="report">"Oh, stop being such a fuss-budget," the Guardian told him, both amused and annoyed. "You've seen me this way since day one nearly. I have no qualms about my body. I don't see why anyone else should be embarrassed." She puts her pallet away inside its storage closet. "Now, what have you come to tell me?"</p>
<p class="report">The Head Steward swallowed. "Simply that--"</p>
<p class="report">"Turn around, Alarr," Tirna ordered him, her voice a touch stern. "I want to be looked at when spoken to."</p>
<p class="report">The Steward swallowed again as he turned to obey her, keeping his eyes glued to her face. "As I was saying, I can to inform you that you are to deliver your weekly report in half an hour, miss Q'jira," he informed her, his cheeks still flushed with embarrassment.</p>
<p class="report">Tirna came up and kissed him on the cheek. "Thank you, dear friend. I believe my alarm already--and quite rudely, I might add--informed me of this." She pulled away and moved to her closet. "What should I wear, Korrin?" she asked, shifting her weight to one leg whilst she browsed her wardrobe. "Would black and purple be too... tacky?" she inquired, turning about to face him.</p>
<p class="report">Korrin took a nervous breath, and walked carefully over to her. "No, not tacky, m'lady, but if you were to wear such I would suggest the purple-lined cloak you recently purchased along with the black suede pants and the purple silk blouse, if I may proffer my opinion so boldly, m'lady."</p>
<p class="report">Tirna nodded. "You may, and I think it an excellent choice. I will be ready shortly." She turned to face her Steward. "And you may go... Unless you'd rather stay and watch me dress?"</p>
<p class="report">Korrin offered a slight smile. "M'lady's offer is kind, but in this case I think I will decline," he replied, bowing to her before slipping out of the room.</p>
<p class="report">Tirna laughed after him, her voice bearing a hint of almost childish glee as she moved to dress herself.</p>
<p class="report" align="center">![-=-=-=- (Bar)](http://pages.prodigy.net/aysha_minion/_uimages/Bar.jpg)</p>
<p class="report">It was about twenty minutes later the Ebon Cloak Tetrarch emerged from her room, offering a smiling nod towards her Steward who was working with another member of staff at the time. "Keeping yourself busy I see," she noted aloud as she slipped by.</p>
<p class="report">"As always, m'lady," he replied without hardly glancing up. "Have a pleasant meeting."</p>
<p class="report">Tirna smiled. "Certainly Alarr. At least I have some pleasant things to report for once," she noted half to herself before slipping out on the House halls proper.</p>
<p class="report">There were still a few people making their way to the three Phyles' meeting halls that lay within the matrix of Acclivis Draco's new domain within the planet Osiris's deep oceans. The Tetrarch glanced out of a nearby window to watch an oddly lit fish swim by, followed by a school of others similar to it. Things were so different from her place on Dragon Keep at times, but then she still enjoyed watching the various creatures go by. Especially those that did not exist in the database of Osiris's's creature catalogue.</p>
<p class="report">With her long stride it took the Tetrarch only a few minutes to arrive at Ebon Cloak's meeting hall, and one look around made her frown. The drapes, which had been originally a deep blue-green, were now black, and there were other unpleasant changes around the room. Someone was going to answer for that, and it would not be pretty when they did.</p>
<p class="report">With a resigned sigh she turned to look over the assembled group. Of her seven Tyros only two were present. Three were on leave, one was absent without leave from what she could tell, and the other was late. She glanced around the room one last time just to be certain and frowned. What could be taking her new Dark Hand so long? She devoutly hoped he had not gotten lost.</p>
<p class="report">Taking a deep breath the Tetrarch strode forward, placing forth a calm if commanding aura that quietly laced through the minds of the two Tyros--Novice Mako Gaiton and Guardian Lara York--who were present. She strode up onto the dais and turned around just in time to watch her Dark Hand enter the room. She smiled quietly. He had made it, if barely.</p>
<p class="report">"Acolyte Ktulu Mizheray," she called out, her tone demanding attention. "Please come here."</p>
<p class="report">The Acolyte looked a bit nervous and worried as he promptly obeyed her order, stepping forward. "Yes, Tetrarch Q'jira?" he inquired quietly, his voice clearly audible in the sudden silence as the conversation between Lara and Mako died.</p>
<p class="report">The Tetrarch eyed him critically. "You've been in that set of robes for far too long, Acolyte. I think they need to be replaced, and so--" she reached behind her and pulled out a set of Protector's robes "--by the grace of your Quaestor I'm promoting you to the rank of Protector." She handed the robes to the startled Protector. "Try and keep these clean," she admonished gently.</p>
<p class="report">Ktulu could only nod and so stepped back and out of her way.</p>
<p class="report">She then turned to Mako Gaiton. Now her sole Novice. But no longer. "Novice Mako Gaiton," she called. "I would like you to come here, please," she commanded him in a quietly rumbling voice, her eyes betraying a mirth she could barely supress.</p>
<p class="report">The Novice slipped out of his chair guiltily and stepped forward. "Yes ma'am?"</p>
<p class="report">"Don't you think those robes have enough patches on them?" the Tetrarch inquired with a raised eyebrow.</p>
<p class="report">"I, er, uhm..." the Novice stammered.</p>
<p class="report">"Here," the Tetrarch pulled out another set of robes, these of the Acolyte persuasion. "See if you can't keep these in better shape." She let herself grin. "Or get promoted quickly enough that it won't matter."</p>
<p class="report">The Novice turned Acolyte caught the robes which were tossed his way out of an instinctive reflex, jaw agape for several moments before he grinned with excitement. "Oh, thank you!" he breathed.</p>
<p class="report">The Tetrarch waved him off. "It was nothing you didn't deserve. Now, go sit back down."</p>
<p class="report">After the Acolyte had sat himself back down she cleared her throat. "I am glad to see that you all have attended, even if four must be absent for their own various reasons. For those of you who are here, I will give my report, for those who are not, a transcript will be available on the Ebon Cloak holosite, as well as a summary for my Tyros who prefer not to read an entire report from start to finish." She chuckled quietly.</p>
<p class="report">"There are three things which I would like to congratulate Ktulu Mizheray on. One is his elevation to Dark Hand. You will be hearing his report later this evening after dinner. Another is his promotion to Protector, a rank I feel has been well earned and gained. And third, I would like to congratulate him for taking third place in the Phyle Wars, especially considering that he returned the same day that the competition ended.</p>
<p class="report">"Congratulations also go out to Mako Gaiton, who now holds the rank of Acolyte. I hope that I continue seeing the same level of work from you as I do now in the future as well, and from all of my Tyros in fact.</p>
<p class="report">"Next, I would like to remind you all that your submissions for Specter of the Past, the Phyle's monthly topic, are due at the end of the standard galactic month, which is in three days, for those of you who do not abide by its schedule. If you do not recall all the details they can be found as usual on the Ebon Cloak holosite.</p>
<p class="report">"I would like to say I am very proud of the activity I have seen from you three, especially considering the fact that all three of you just recently returned or joined the Phyle. Keep up the good work and you are sure to go far.</p>
<p class="report">"On a final note I would like to remind you that all Phase One submissions are due on the fifth of October, though it is my hope that you get them in sooner so we have a chance to work out any conflicts that may arise between your various works. I do hope you will all take my suggestion to heart and use the Phyle's mailing list to coordinate your efforts, as all holo-mails are archived in the list's database where they can be accessed for later reference."</p>
<p class="report">She smiled. "In conclusion I would like to thank everyone who have signed up for the Ebon Cloak message boards, and I hope to soon see Talons Pryde and Detori Koth on it as well, though I fear Adian Pryde may be absent from us without my leave. We will see if such is so before my next report."</p>
<p class="report">She stepped off the dais. "Thank you for your time. Now, go enjoy your dinner and return here afterwards for the Dark Hand's report." She began walking towards the door, but just before she slipped out she turned around. "Dismissed," she called to them all and then glided gracefully out into the now crowded hallways, quickly blending in with all the rest on their way to their evening meal...</p>

<p class="report">Ktulu gazed up into the ceiling in time to see another small aquatic animal be eaten by a big that he decided to call Greep. It was the same one he saw the earlier as well as the other day and every day he looked out into the depths of the ocean since he had come here. _Must be its hunting grounds,_ Ktulu mused. _Good thing I reinforced the plasteel when I did._ Ktulu had been here for nearly a month when he had left the Dark Brotherhood.</p>
<p class="report">He found it ironic that House Acclivis Draco had come to him here on Osiris. He guessed that that was just the way it was supposed to be. Still the thought of House Acclivis Draco coming to him brought a small smile to his face. The hallway was one of the ones that he had repaired and also had an escape hatch hidden somewhere. He did not want to be caught off guard and wanted to be sure that there was always a way to leave in a moments notice.</p>
<p class="report">The walk was not long as his room was literally within a hundred paces of all the likely meeting halls that the Phyles would take. Another smile came to his face. He did not plan on getting any kind of visitors but the house came back to its original home and he made it possible to get anywhere from his room to nearly all the likely offices and meeting areas and so on.</p>
<p class="report">Stepping within the room he had to stand and look at what was once a poorly lit room with no furnishings of practical use to an elegant Conference room. The changes were nice and appropriate for the phyle that had chosen it as its place of meeting. The support struts were an ebony black and the curtains on the walls looked like flowing cloaks. He liked it. Looking around he noticed that the plasteel was reinforced again after his own work. _Probably to make sure it can stand an attack,_ Ktulu wondered thoughtfully. _Like there is going to be one._</p>
<p class="report">Stepping up to the dais motioning for silence Ktulu looked around at the gathered Tyros. Nearly all were accounted for. Locke had left and Zedder, Talons and Detori were all on leave. Talons was not actually gone but in the medical ward for an injury sustained to his hand. An accident during a duel he was told. Mako had returned and Lara had joined.</p>
<p class="report">That made the count even at eight. Not a full phyle but a stronger one with better numbers than when I rejoined, Ktulu noted. Not used to being a person of power (no matter what kind of power) he almost forgot why he was standing on the dais.</p>
<p class="report">"Tyros," Ktulu said, "I see that even though we are not all here most of you are. That is good to see. Novice Locke has decided to leave us. His decision to leave was his own. I understand why people must leave as I have also decided to leave a time ago. I have since returned and am glad to report that Acolyte Mako Gaiton has returned to us and is participating in the vendetta against house Ektrosis. Guardian Lara York has also joined our ranks and has also decided to participate in the vendetta. I hope you find yourself at home here at Ebon Cloak, Lara."</p>
<p class="report">Gazing over the faces of the gathered, Ktulu took a deep breath. He was going to have to get used to this fast. "Protector Talons Pryde is in the medical ward after having received an injury to his hand during a duel and is taking time off to recuperate. Protector Zedder Netzach and Acolyte Detori Koth are also on a leave of absence and shall be returning soon." With that he stepped off of the dais and stood by Tirna. "I did not think I would not remember everything or anything for that matter." He said quietly. "I going to have to get used to this fast."</p>
