Crimson and Shadow

High Prophet Crozeus

Crozeus complied, recounting from memory everything he knew about the Crimson Blades. To his surprise, a few of them actually knew who they were, and recognized the names of some of the members. It took over five minutes for him to regurgitate every bit of knowledge he had about them.

"I think the first course of action is infiltrating this group, it will allow us to further analyze them from the inside. It will better prepare us for what they have, what they can do, and it also helps us understand their motives." One of the men in the group spoke up.

Kela had raised a bony finger to steal the floor, "We also need to know who their leader is. He is the main objective of any goal, you chop the head off and the rest of the body stops functioning. Even if they have plans for such an event, the chaos would allow us precious moments to make our move against them."

Kadir was next to make a point, "I agree with the idea of infiltrating them, we need to have a good idea of the numbers they are working with. If they have a star destroyer as Prophet Crozeus speculates, then they could possibly have a lot of people bent to their wills."

"I am calculating so far that the amount of force needed to attack them would be at least the The Dark Saber. If we are looking at fighting against other force users then I suggest we use 3 Company of Blacknight Commandos minimal."

Prognie had just been sitting as the others were writing things down quickly, writing down thoughts to go over later. "Prophet Crozeus, what do you feel is sufficient enough to take out these foes?"

High Prophet Crozeus

Crozeus had been thinking over what the others had been saying. "I agree that infiltration is a vital first step. However, from what I understand they have not accepted any into their ranks for many years. Their leader is a former Jedi Master named Kwai Jin Shii - when I was a Jedi, she was my Master."

Then he thought over Prognie's question. "I am no Military expert. I think bringing a fleet to Kashyyyk would not be the best course of action. I believe a smaller team of Sith, prepared to fight in lightsaber or Force combat, would be a better path to take. That way we can avoid any incidents in the media."

"As a Prophet, what do you foresee though is our outcome? I am looking at you to dictate our best options here." Prognie wasn't ignoring the imput of his best advisers, only that he wanted to place trust in Crozeus, something that would boost his own confidence in the upcoming fight.

Not for the first time, Crozeus shut his eyes and delved into the Force. As usual, the vision was surrounded in grey, in shadow. But this time, there was a definite feeling of success... and death.

"It feels like we will be successful, though at a cost," he told Prognie.

Prognie nodded despite the obvious reading of the force, he had hoped Crozeus would be searching for more but he was, like all of them, content with the simple answers the force provided.

"We will find a weakness in their defenses, that's where we will strike. We cannot increase Imperial presence or they will notice, we also cannot alter anything to our advantage or they will notice. We do need to find their ships, if they have any, and find a way to swiftly disable and destroy them."

"Prophet Crozeus, I would like to see a few more Inquisitors on the planet to allow for swift movement. Would it be possible to get you to authorize them access onto the Church's chapter there?"

Crozeus nodded. "Certainly, though it will be difficult to prevent the Supreme Prophet from noticing. I shall do my best to ensure the Prophets' silence."

"The Supreme Prophet's increased duties have kept him very busy, I doubt he will notice. The Inquisitors have a way of blending in easily, the rest of the Prophets won't notice the difference." Names of available inquisitors and agents best suited for the jobs were already being brought up on datapads by the others, when the inquisitors worked they worked fast.

Crozeus frowned. "You doubt the efficiency of our Prophets at manning their chapters. Rosters are taken, they will stand out like a sore thumb. And I know Stap Praxeum. No matter what he has to do, he will always check on his Prophets, and his Chapters."

"And you doubt the abilities of the Inquisitors Prophet Crozeus, if you underestimate them now, then they will not serve you well in what is to come." Prognie took pride in his order, he had helped reshape it into a powerful Order. Not even Praxeum could match his Church against what the Inquisitors were now.

"I'm not here to get into a fight about our respective Orders, Lord Prognie, and neither are you. We will see if they can make themselves unknown in the middle of the Chapter."

Crozeus ran a hand through his hair and grimaced. "What now?" He asked.

"We start monitoring them as best as we can, we'll be depending heavily on your ability to let us have access to the Church as a base. We need to see how close we can get, what they are doing, and a weakness in their surroundings to exploit." Kadir said as he went over his datapad.

"The Church doesn't have to play host to all of our men, just a couple until we actually do strike." Kela said after kadir to wash away any hesitations from Crozeus.

He nodded. "Very well. I'll send word that they should expect guests of top level importance."

He turned to Kela. "How long do you anticipate it will be before we can strike?"

"Unknown, we cannot strike until we're sure that whatever we send in has a high success chance. We'll be working closely at analyzing all the data we get from watching them, since these are force users the entire situation is a lot different than just any old terrorist group." Kela was already organizing a group together on her datapad that would be responsible for watching the Grey Jedi group.
