Naj looked at the coordinates he had written down. On his viewscreen, it appeared that he was flying to a big empty void. The coordinates were given to him by one Salem Ave, after an interesting meeting on Coruscant.
At this point, he wasnt sure if he wasnt flying into a big void, after all, Salem seemed pretty intent on people NOT finding the Empress Teta system. The possibility that the coordinates were legit was enough to bring Naj here though. He had attempted in the past to find Empress Teta, only to find that it was nearly impossible, if not completely impossible, by normal means. His only worry was that he may have been bring his ship out of hyperspace right into a black hole. Such was a risk when dealing with strangers...
The hull of the Ubbrikkian Space Yacht lurched slightly as the ship pulled itself out of hyperspace. In front of him, almost to his suprise was a planet. Was it part of the Empress Teta system?
He would find out soon enough, he hoped.
Naj slowed the ship to a comfortable speed as he entered the planets atmosphere, and brought it down low enough to scan the planet's surface. From his elevated view, a city came into his view. Even from the air, it appeared that the ciry was empty. Ruins. Then, one building caught his attention. A towering spire on the outskirts of the city. Instantly he began mulling through his nearly photographic memory until he remembered where he'd seen that building.
A painting came to mind. Sunset over Cinnagar. This was it! Koros Major!
The painting itself had no real credibility, but this just couldnt be a coincidence.
Naj quickly brought his ship down, landing out in a large pasture like field near the building. The ship itself was pretty big, so if anyone was here, they would know of his arrival. The ship came to a complete landing and Naj started toward the mian exit. His best bet of finding Salem would most likely be heading into the city, so that was his plan. Even if no one was there, it would at least provide him with some very interesting sight seeing...

Feliciana had been tracking a ship for some time now and when it finally docked in a field just outside Cinnagar, she was sure to be there -- waiting. Just as a figure appeared from the back exit, she stepped forth from behind the ship and folded her arms across her chest, canting her head to the side.
"Who are you?"
She questioned as the wind picked up and caught her long flowing black robes. Her black hair kissed the gentle breeze and contrasted her bright cyan blue eyes. No smile rested upon her cherry red lips as she glared at the stranger.
"And what are you doing here?"
Though the questions were pointed, somehow her voice was gentle with an edge to it. Indeed, for a Dark Jedi the Knight was rather calm and unhostile to Naj, though her curiousity was killing the best of her. The fact of whether he belonged there or not was at the forefront of her mind, though, and would stay there until she figured it out.

There was a threatening presence around the woman waiting on him at the main exit ramp. Naj rested his staff firmly on the ground and rested a small amount of his weight on it.
"My name is Najiri'tilth'sabosen, and Im just here on a vacation of sorts"
Naj smiled politely at the woman. He fully intended on speaking with Salem while he was here, but he didnt know who this woman was, or what kind of reputation Salem had here.
For all the Chiss halfbreed knew, Salem was a hated presence, and this woman was a disgruntled local with a gun.
Naj's smile didnt diminish.

"Well, well, well," came a sing-song voice. "Look what the cat brought in."
It was unlikely for anything to get past this place without her realizing it, and the ship wasn't an exception. After some time it had finally landed but it seemed like another member of the Order - Feliciana - had noticed this, too.
The Knight wasn't by the woman's side but instead stood a large gap between them. Like Feliciana, she wore equally black robes, except the hood was drawn up as to hide the face. The only thing that could give away her identity was her voice.
"Fancy seeing you here, eh, Naj ?"

The voice entering the conversation was instantly recognized. He couldnt have forgotten that voice if he'd wanted to. It took a moment for the surprise to let go of him however, as she spoke.
"Cherice!?"
This was truly a coincidence, as he had met Cherice shortly before leaving for Koros. The surprise was pleasant, however.

"You sound .. surprised."
Tilting her head to the side, the hood still remained drawn up.
"And what brings you here, I wonder ... I wager you want to join the Krath, no ?"

Naj smiled. He wasnt intentionally ignoring the other lady, it was just......Cherice.
"Actually, I was going to inquire about that while I was here. Have you spoken to Salem about me already???"

"No. It's just not often you find someone here without that request."
Shrugging, she took a step forward and inhaled the crisp air. She could smell him -- the slight perspiration forming in small beads on his body produced a faint odor that she could barely sense.
".. Well, good luck then on trying to find out more."
With that, she turned around and began to walk away.

Salem watched.
Not from nearby, and not with any degree of accuracy, but he watched. From within the Iron Citadel, out of the harmful rays of the sun, the vampire Sith Knight stared at the small gathering. Each of the figures was so unique that it was easy to tell who was present – Cherice, Feliciana, and the man he had met on Coruscant – but he could not tell what they were saying.
Frustration marred his mind as he turned from the arch he been looking from behind. There was no way he could leave and navigate the Termagent Forest to find his way out to where they had landed, not in the daylight. No - he was imprisoned in his own citadel until night fell.

"Cherice?"
He spoke, almost beckoning as she walked away. She didnt hear him, or chose not to answer him. With a slight sigh he turned his attention back toward Feliciana.
"Im terribly sorry, my manners have eluded me..."
Cherice's present had been more than distracting, almost intoxicating, as he had completely forgotten the slight secretism of his presence. Cherice spoke of the Krath opening in front of Feliciana though, which succeeding in lowering Naj's guard on the subject slightly.
