[Day 6 - MM] The Once and Future Dark Lord
Rumors around the base is that the Empire sent reinforcements that broke through the blockade. Which has everyone a bit excited, the Republic are nervous that the balance of power may be tipping and are looking at options and the Empire is excited because they might get off this frozen rock.
Most think it is rumors until a freighter bearing an Imperial identifier code makes itself known to Echo Base. Bearing the name Infinite Destiny it has asked for permission to land.

Sylvain had only barely arrived in the hangar from the Endless Sea when news of an Imperial freighter’s arrival buzzed around the hangar.
Blistered and exhausted he stepped from his ship with his daughter in tow to see what all the commotion was about… and what this meant was happening in this new vision-world presented to him…

Galen watched them come in, offering a wave as he waited to see who else was coming. They were running out of room. He was tempted to just set up a tent in the hangar.

Re: [Day 6 - MM] The Once and Future Dark Lord
The last few days had made Luth Khalan, among other things, a little bit paranoid about the whole Infinite Empire issue. Hearing the name of the freighter coming in along with Imperial indentifier codes as she had landed and got the ship sorted made that flare up in full force again as soon. It was a little... suspicious. She very badly wanted to be proven wrong about that and have her worries be unfounded, but she couldn't say she was feeling as positive about the development as the rest of her contingent seemed to be.
She stood in the hangar next to Sylvain, waiting to see what changes this was going to bring.

Tethys stands with her hands tucked in the sleeves of her robe, face calmly impassive.
'Infinite Destiny'... the ship's name sounds curiously familiar, but she can't quite place it. Then again, with millions of ships across thousands of worlds in the known galaxy, it's quite likely there are more than one or two ships with the same name, or similar names anyway.

Kat was an unusual sight at this hour of the day, having been the usual night-shift guard for the base since their arrival. But after last night others had insisted she got some rest after the fighting she had gone through, and she had gone out like a light the moment she hit her head on the pillow. Thankfully the Rimma was warmer than the base.
Standing next to Tethys, arms folded into the sleeves of her Jedi robes and with the hood up, she blended in as just another Jedi.

Re: [Day 6 - MM] The Once and Future Dark Lord
The Infinite Destiny made it’s approach and landed in the open bay. It was not particularly remarkable, a typical light freighter with lots of custom modifications once someone looks at it. The ramp lowers down with a hiss exposing the sealed interior to the Hoth atmosphere.
There is silence and thena figure descends wearing a mask that seems intent on sowing terror and malice, a long dark cape and firm boots, equally black. In fact it was all black on black, on black.
When he reached the bottom he said in a deep modulated voice, “So this is the thorn in the White Maw’s side?”

Re: [Day 6 - MM] The Once and Future Dark Lord
In all his years of service Sylvain made a point to remember Sith of relative importance…
Perhaps it was the eons of suffering… And all the infinite futures…
But this man did not strike him as a man of importance.

Moyr had witnessed the arrival with Moy'r thoughts, which were now leaning sceptical. If anything, she thought the man standing nearby and no longer using that ridiculous sobriquet had made things more interesting by his return.

"Welcome to our base. How can we help you?" Galen asked. "Would you like some hot chocolate?"
This would likely be a negotiation or a battle. May as well start off friendly.

Is this some standup comedian from the Republic, taking ideas about the Sith from cartoons and holoshows? Moyr couldn't pinpoint why exactly this felt unreal.

Jo'ren wasn't there for the clown in a cape. He knew all about the Infinite Destiny and was hoping his old friends were still the owners. So he hung back waiting to see if the tin can and other crew were going to appear.
The mention of Layne drew a curious glance but he kept quiet.

Sylvain glanced over towards Baras as he approached.
He had killed the man so many times… And been killed so many times in return… Fought with him… fought against him…
And there he was again… What would their fate be this time?

He understood the Repulic using the title. He had had a discussion with the senator about that. At this point, most of the people in the base had probably heard it. But, a random Sith lord?

"No, someone here," she said with a sigh, resting a hand on her hip. She was getting an increasingly intense feeling that this guy was just an idiot. "Lord Khalan, by the way. And my Master, Darth Baras." The fact that he hadn't reacted to his appearance made the impression that much stronger.

Tethys blinks perplexedly when the Darth seems to point directly at her, while intoning about perfidious Jedi who would have you THINK… something?
Given this new Sith lord’s obvious animus against the Jedi Order, it’s probably for the best that Galen has taken point here.
Tethys does shoot Kat a puzzled glance, though. Does Layne have another nemesis we didn’t know about? Again?
And is it just her, or does something feel weird about this?
