| Illiandra watched the Inquisitor thoughtfully. "I don't like masks." She said simply before she turned her attention to where they were going, not that she would recognize it or really care. The woman could have cared less if people saw her, she rarely realized others were around anyway, and if they were or got in her way, they didn't usually survive it.
In a rare moment of clarity, Illiandra spoke again. "How many Jedi are left?" She asked first. "I'd like to have one as a pet."

| "You may not, but they serve a purpose. Fortunately, the Prince of Tantra, the man whom you will be masquerading as consort for, does not wear a mask." Setting in a course and locking the controls, he turned his chair to face her, reclining comfortably. "I do not know. Too many. I'm not sure how many have been captured or killed, but it has been a good number. Many have turned as well, swelling the ranks of the Inquisitorious. As for having one as a pet? You may very well be granted a convert... once you catch one."

| "The last one didn't like to play." She explained as she leaned back in the seat. "He stopped moving and screaming....and begging." Illiandra honestly seemed quite devastated by that fact, but at the time she had quickly gotten over it. Idly, she would twirl a strand of platinum hair around her blood stained fingers as she moved the chair slightly from side to side, using her foot as leverage.
"Who is he? Like you? And me? Or...simple? Like most. Not special."

| "They tend to do that after a time, especially if they won't convert. Fortunately for you... there are a number of steps in your induction that we can skip over. I certainly see no need to torture you, after all." Deschain chuckled slightly. "I doubt it will be much work at all to include you in the Inquisitorious. A matter of a month or two, perhaps, and then you can move on to your next position with the prince.
"As for him? He's not like us. He's a loyal Imperial with a bit of a fun side. He doesn't command the Force as we do though."

| What Deschain didn't know about was that she had been tortured, by her own family no less. Once her father figured out she had abilities using the force, he had tried to "cleanse" her of the demons and have a normal child. Being locked in small rooms and having electro shock only heightened her sense and uses of the force. And then she killed them. First her mother for not being a mother and stopping them. Them her uncle for deciding she was evil. And then her father, the slowest and most painfully. He begged for mercy and she showed none because he gave her none.
It had shaped who she was, to say the least. Fenrir was her family now, and he was all she needed.
"He doesn't sound very fun." She commented regarding the assignment he was givin her. "I won't hurt him. Neither will Fenrir."

| "You'd be surprised. You'll find Prince Vaughn to be... very invigorating." Deschain saw no point in telling her, at least yet, that Vaughn was his alter-identity that allowed him to work and move even more unseen, albeit without any of his normal backup. Illiandra would now be able to provide that backup. "He's not the highest in Imperial circles, but he's a useful agent. You'll likely be hunting Jedi and rebels with him, so you'll be more than able to indulge your unique series of amusement at whim... providing of course, the mission at hand is achieved."

| Illiandra leaned back in her seat, swinging her leg absently from the edge, as the other was curled up beneath her and the voluminous gown she was wearing. Her hair was a tangled mess and her silk gown ruined, but she hardly seemed to notice as she had started humming to herself. The song would be unrecognizable, as it was being made up in her head as she went along. "He'll love me." She said casually, uncaring for certain. "And Fenrir." As she said his name, the alien kitten popped his head up from where he was laying.
She could be quite level-headed when she needed or wanted to be, but for the most part she didn't bother. When it was necessary, however, no one would be able to tell the difference. She would just be a beautiful, put together young woman with an erratic, de-sensitized killer hiding deep inside.

| "I am sure he will," Deschain responded, and there was more than a hint of a smile in his voice. "I am equally sure your Nexxu kitten will be at home on an ice world. Tantra is largely situated beneath the ice when it comes to the cities. Just recall, you cannot simply fly off the handle on this man, no matter how you feel about him. You will be there to keep him safe. He is a very valuable asset within the Empire. When you are not with him, you will be with me and my Purifiers."

| An actual laugh escaped her lips, as brief as it was. "A human....valuable to the Empire?" The concept was obviously beyond her comprehension. She was quite intelligent, aside from being a complete, insane wreck most of the time. This Prince must have been more than Deschain was telling her, if he was so "valuable" to the Empire. Illiandra tilted her head some before she turned the seat slightly so that she could see where they were going, not that she would recognize it at all.
"What will happen at Prakith, Rath Deschain?" She finally turned her cobalt blue gaze back to him.

| "Many humans are valuable to the Empire... some beyond how valuable our kind are... and certainly more valuable than the filthy alien species that we have to share the galaxy with." With the ship winging its way along, Deschain was able to relax and focus fully on her; granted, Deschain relaxed was like a predator waiting to spring.
"On Prakith I will test you, with holograms and scenarios and perhaps... even in your own mind, with the Force. If you pass all the tests, then you will be an Inquisitor at my recommendation. If you fail... well, do not fail."

| Illiandra kept her gaze locked on him. "Do you really think I need tests?" she finally asked after several agonizingly long moments. "How many come willingly with you? Not many, if any at all, I imagine. Do they fight? To the death, I am sure, Rath Deschain, because little Jedi do not want what you offer. Maybe I do not either, but we will see." She said off-handedly before she went back to spinning the seat from side to side.
"You will try and kill me if I fail. I never fail when it comes to what I want."

| The man who had once, so very long ago, been called Corlan Fallow gave Illiandra a very even look, or as even as one could give a look from behind a pure black mask. "I think I must abide by the tenets of the Inquisitorious. Not all the tests are as you think they may be, Illiandra. It's more than fighting and Force powers. Much of it is how you approach the situations and how you complete your missions." He clasped his hands before him.
"There have been those that have come willingly. Some few, very few. Survival to them is preferable, and the fear death. Fear can be used to turn them. Others, by far the greater number, decide they would be better served by killing me and ridding the galaxy of a servant of the Emperor, or that they might gain their lives. In those cases... well, I'm still here.
"As for you... if you want this, then you will pass the tests." He made no comment as to whether or not he would 'try' to kill her. If she failed, there was no question of it. Perhaps she'd kill him if it came to it, but she'd never leave Prakith.

| Her gaze snapped to him again. "I am not afraid of dying. Nor are you, I am sure." She murmured. Listlessly, the girl trailed her fingertip along the arm of the chair she was lounging in. "I am not afraid of much, which may disappoint you." Illiandra turned her gaze up to the ceiling of the transport and she slid in the seat so she was nearly laying sideways in it, with her head on the arm rest and her legs over the other, covered by the silk gown she was wearing.
"I hate to disappoint." She murmured. "You will learn to live with it. Are we there yet?"

| "It takes time to get to Prakith. It is some distance away. A lack of fear will make parts of the testing easier for you." Deschain had turned back to the controls. They would be at Prakith soon, but not quite at that moment. "That you have no fear is a benefit, not a disappointment. It may be that you rise faster and further because of it... but take care you do not fall all that much harder."

| Illiandra hummed to herself some, again an unknown tune, as she stared at the ceiling. "There are more than just Jedi. Ones like you say they are true, but they are not...just to save their skin. You will let me find them too?" she cooed as she turned her cobalt blue gaze to him from where she was nearly laying. Idly, she swung her foot back and forth and she let out a deep sigh. "They tell you lies and whisper rumors and rebel when you do not look, do they not?"
