-The Imperial Palace- Centered deep inside the urban landscape, the Imperial Palace stands as a symbol of Imperial might and resolve. Form the outside, the Imperial Palace looks like a mix of a cathedral and a monument, and bares strong Sith architecture. At a total height of 3.5 kilometers, it is the tallest building on Carratos. The Imperial Palace is made of polished gray-blue rock and mirrored crystals with three large banners flying the Imperial crest of the RGE. Even at night, the Palace never grew dark since blazing illumination from phosphorescent panels, glowspheres, and electroluminescence strips kept the structure in a shower of blazing light. The Palace Gardens were located on the grounds at the rear of the Palace. -Ch'hala trees spy on guests- Inside the Palace, Ch'hala trees line the main concourse and can be found throughout the palace. These trees, which continuously change color at sound vibrations, are part of a spy system used by the Empire to keep an eye on their guests. -Inside the Imperial Palace- The Palace contains over fifteen thousand rooms and chambers in fifty inter-connected structures. The use of local blue ocean marble and electrum trim can be seen on the floors, walls and ceilings. The people who work there are expected to have a comlink at all times, because of the easiness to get lost. -Palace Guards and Aides- The Imperial Palace has its own Senate Chamber connected via an underground tunnel system. It has six hundred, six-person repulsorlift booth-pods outlined in crimson upholstery and painted black. All of the residential floors of the Palace contain extensive libraries, there is a private library rumored to house a great deal of holocrons and scrolls but no one has ever located it. Guests are housed within the Guest floor of the Palace, rooms so elaborate in their decoration any dignitary or Princess that may wish to stay the night may wish to never leave. Beneath the structure of the Palace are a series of chambers that hold the Imperial Information Center. There is also a facility used to train for personal combat. -The Imperial Senate Chamber- Royal Carratosian guards and stormtoopers walk the grounds with surveillance droids and monitoring devices throughout the grounds. All secure or restricted areas are clearly marked and are equipped with model Dz5 Security doors. Over 100 turbolaser and 80 ion cannon batteries dot the surfaces of the Palace’s four sentry towers, while pin-point defense barriers and solar ionization cannons surround and protect the main building. -Carratosian Guards and Stormtroopers don't always get along- The main security system of the Palace uses a Personal Area Network (which includes DNA, voice and retinal checks for certain areas) that tracks the heat profiles of everyone inside the temple. If any unauthorized persons enter without being fitted for the PAN field that monitors the Palace, guards are automatically released, the Palace put on high alert and locked down with standing orders that all intruders are shot on site.

The Colonel leads Master Kite to the hangar entrance that the he and the guards came through. The hangar has TIE/Interceptors hot and and ready to fly for patrols, stormtroopers moving towards a staging area, even a few commanders standing next to an AT-AT. Col. Terrace walks towards a set of stairs that leads to the landing leading to the palace entrance. That is when Col. Terrace is stopped by Maj. Thalis of the Carratosian Royal Gaurd, an air of tension can be felt between the CRG and the stormtroopers. The CRG were in charge of palace security and the Imperials didn't like it. That is when Cilla Shane, head of the Palace Aides, walks up beside Thalis. -Maj. Thalis and Cilla Shane- "Master Kite, please follow me." Cilla says with a soft and cold voice. Terrace turns to Master Kite and nods. "It looks like the spooks have you from here. Good day, Master Kite."

*Kite watches all of the defenses and smiles at the severity of them. This is one hyped-up defensive screen, and Kite has to respect that. They obviously mean buisness. He follows the Colonel, wishing that he had eidetic memory, but isnt too worried about it. Interceptors hot and ready, AT-ATs, troopers. He doesn't really worry about having to spy much if at all, or have to pierce the defenses, but a ready man is a man who wins the scenario.
As the Major comes up and stops Terrace, in the uniform unfamiliar to Kite, who has seen his fair share of the galaxy's uniforms. He assumes that this means that they are the guard of the palace or the defense force of the planet when the 667th isnt around. Kite almost smiles at the air of annoyance and tension enters the scene. They aren't very happy together, obviously. That is an important detail. Another for Kite's yet-to-be-eiditc memory.
Then an Aide, a high placed one, comes up and speaks in a cold voice to Kite. Kite smiles softly, enjoying the trappings of the Sith and the Empire. They don't change in that respect, not really since he was a Sith at least. That brought back memories to him, and his face unconciously slips into the smirk that was customary for him back then. He shakes his head and then looks at the Aide.*
Alright...
*He smiles and puts a hand on the shoulder of the Colonel.*
Seems that way, friend. Good day, Colonel.
*He turns back to the Major and Cillia.*
Lead on.

Maj. Thalis leads the way, flanked by eight CRG on both sided, while Cilla walks with Master Kite. The halls seem to shimmer with an ocean hue as the group heads deeper into the Palace; it seems cold, almost like the chill of the dark side but not as overly menacing. The people seem slightly cold as well but inviting.
"Are you a really a Grey Master?" Cilla asks, much to the jealousy of Maj. Thalis, as the party makes their down the hall towards a group of turbolifts at the far end.

*Kite looks around, and enjoys the scenery. This is an interesting place if nothing else. He follows the CRG officer and his troop, and smiles at the aide beside him. She asks him if he really is a Grey Jedi Master, and Kite nods, smiling slightly wider as he feels the jealousy off of the Major.*
Yes ma'am. Really, I am a Jounin, which is a council member of the Order, but the rank is effectly the same. What is your job around here, ma'am, if you don't mind me asking?
*He keeps his sense of direction up, making sure that he knows where he is goin, as difficult as that is.*

"I am the Head Aide," Cilla responds in her cold voice, "I run the day to day business in the palace."
As the party approaches the lifts, they walk up a small flight of stairs and a freestanding gateway in front of the lifts. There is a single liftdoor open and waiting, it looks like an express lift.
"This will take you to the Main Hall and your meeting with the Regent. Peace be with you Master Kite." Cilla says softly, the coldness of her voice would make one wonder if she truly meant it.

*Kite nods and smiles at Cilla.*
An important task, to be sure. More important than defense, I might say. Defense will screw up, as will everything else, if that is not taken care of.
I envy you.
*Kite bows a little to her, and the Major.*
Thank you, both of you, as well as the noble guard.
*Kite replies to Cilla in an equally soft tone.*
And with you, ma'am.
*He walks to the lift and steps in, closing his eyes and throwing his force senses out as the lift takes him where he needs to go, holding his staff. As he senses the lift closing, he lets go and opens his eyes, then steps out as the lift opens it's doors. He steps into the Main hall and looks around for a regent or more directions.*

As the doors to the lift open on the Main Hall, the site is one of awe as the room in itself is massive and ornate. There are several large pillars throughout the room that rise near 100m upward, the ceiling decorated with Carratosian glyphs and the room itself made out of a darker blue ocean marble and same electrum trim. Small pockets of aides stand and watch the scene as CRG's stand guard at various places in the hall. Near the back of the hall is a thrown perched high atop a flight of marble stairs with a smaller thrown-style chair at the base of the stairs. In that chair sits a man wearing a black leather robe with ornate shoulder bars and Carratosian medals with markings. He looks older, mid Forties with signs of a not so life, blone hair and green eyes. He sits in wait, his chin resting comfortably on his hand. When he sees Kite step off the lift, the Regent stands up. -Remus Kommissar The Imperial Regent, "Greetings Master Kite, welcome to Carratos." the Regent says with a slight bow as Kite draws nearer. "I'm Imperial Regent Remus Kommissar."

*Kite looks around the room and is suitably impressed. This room is one of the grander ones that he has seen. He sees the guards and smiles at them, as well as the aides, and bows to the Regent as well, and smiles.*
Greetings Regent Kommissar. Thank you for your welcome. You men have been most accomidating.
*Kite smiles at him and slowly steps closer to the Regent, and stops close, waiting to see if Remus would rather talk standing close together, or stay a small distance away. He nods his head*
I am here to discuss relations between my order and the Reconstructed Galactic Empire.

Kommisar notices Kite's approaching steps and rises from his chair, walking closer towards Kite. The seek relations with the Empire, not at all unforeseeable, they probably already have them with the Jedi.
"We were wondering when we would receive an envoy." Kommisar comments as he then offers a hand. "We welcome you warmly to Carratos."

*Kite smiles at Kommisar and takes his hand, shaking it firmly before letting go and nods* Thank you, Kommisar. Shall we get right to buisness, or would you like to do something else before hand?

"No, we should get to business." Kommisar says with a nod. "It will make things go quickly."
Kommisar begins to move over towards another room, more suitable to conduct meetings. As the doors swing open, they reveal a large Mustafar obsidian stone table around 10 meters long with two chairs at one end and various selection of foodstuffs.
"I find it easier to talk without worrying about an empty stomach." Kommisar says as he grabs some bantha steak and other stuffs before heading towards the chairs. "So, what can the Empire do for the Grey?"

Paymons shuttle and escort land in the hangar area,where he is greeted by a station of the guards and storm troopers,first the Grand Admiral Ordo exits the shuttle and then Grand Admiral Masen takes to the left as they stand across from eachother,while Paymon walks down the loading ramp,his hood rose to conceal his identity,sensing other force users here he closed himself off from the force,knowing that know one would be able to sense him.
At the first sight a few of the newer guards gasped as they looked at the hooded figure,knowing who it was didn't help either,Paymon was dressed in black pants,his normal boots,and a long black cloak,though he walked with his cane,which when one of the guards saw it he made a note in his mind that if he should ever get to talk to Paymon he would make sure to ask him if the tales were true,Paymon made his way past the guards,smirking he walked down one of the hallways,and walked towards the aides desk she looked up at him,"M'lord,Regent Kommissar is currently in a meeting with a Grey Jedi Master,Kite..I believe his name is.."The aide spoke,trying to hide her fear.
Paymon sighed,"Then he'll make room for an addition,alert him that I have arrived and am on my way to his office.."Paymon said then turned at put his keycard forward,gaining entrance as usual,he walked forward to the lifts,taking the lift to the floor where he knew he would find Master Kite and Regent Kommissar.

*Kite smiles softly at the Regent and nods*
I agree. The less time im here, the less time im tying up your attention.
*He follows Kommisar as he moves to a meeting room, smiling at the table full of food with two chairs, and hears Kommisar speak about his view on discussing while eating, and Kite shrugs*
No problem, man. Don't mind at all. Ill grab something too, if you wouldn't object.
*He grabs a plate and a rather large roll, ripping it in half and putting a smaller bantha steak, cheese, and the top half of the roll on it, making it a bantha steak burger. He grabs some other assorted food, then sits down in the other chair set out. He smiles at the Regent, and shrugs*
Well, Remus, if you do not mind me calling you Remus, I am here on a simple run to extend the greetings of the Grey, as well as extend the possibility of alliance. We would be happy to be your allies, especially because of the hard times about us. Can never have enough friends, right?
*He takes a bite of the "burger", and swallows it quickly before speaking again.*
As well as seeing if you had any information on the various other factions that you would be willing to give us.

Paymon stands right outside the door as a guard announces his arrival to the meeting room.
"His Highness,Lord Paymon,has arrived,please rise."he announced.
Paymon walked into the room,his cane in his his right hand,he looked toward Kommisar,"Dark Greetings.."he said to them both nodding,he looked over Kite slightly twisting the hilt of his cane,then took a seat,looking up at them,"Please,don't let me interrupt your meeting.."he said,watching them closely.
