Tu Shanshu

[ Kylo Ren has been watching recent developments on Tu Vishan with growing unease. He had started out thinking Valdis an annoyance, then a danger, but with the new guild structure, the KPD's power is only being consolidated - and thus, her power. It's not a good development for an enemy of hers.

He might have been willing to let it rest, if he hadn't overheard a drugged-out-of-his-mind KPD member mention that he is on the watch list. It had been the last push to take action.

But what to do? It took more listening and more than a little bit of luck, but now Kylo is ready to send a message which will hopefully sow seeds of discontent – and isn’t that one of the strategies of the Dark Side? Not one he had bothered with before or is particularly skilled in… but before, he didn’t need to bother with subterfuge. ]

I have learned that Valdis of the KPD knew the water supply would be targeted. If you don’t believe me, ask the officers she used to aide her.

The KPD has been hunting the Cultists for months, but for all its powerful Foreigner detectives it has nothing to show.

I demand she explain why she did not prevent the attack when she knew it was coming. I demand she explain why she protects Cultists instead of our citizens. And I dare her to explain why she calls herself a protector, but carries a dangerous sword.

How can we be certain that the shapeshifter we put our trust in is who she claims to be?

All Foreigners have secrets, but I want to know if hers are dangerous to us before I can trust her again.

[OOC: He will respond, though he might keep it short and vague to prevent giving himself away. Feel free to also talk among yourselves!]

[ Oh joy, there's Kylo Ren's sour face for your viewing pleasure. ]

I realize there is an influx of new arrivals and many other things happening right now, but that's no reason to postpone important matters that I neglected for too long.

Some of you were interested in learning to use the Force before. I'm now willing to teach... if you can prove yourself worth my time.

[It's been months since Kylo Ren made an announcement on the network, but today he does, and looks oddly pensive, withdrawn.

In the background you can catch a glimpse of a painfully generic living room, there are no personal items other than a glimpse at his infamous table of ashes.]

Lately I've had a lot of time to think, and there is something I have been wondering about. We get to meet people from other worlds, or people who are dead to us, but there is no stability to the bonds built here. Foreigners are randomly brought to this place and taken away.

Yet some of us have been here for years, they watched many come and go. How do you go about this? I dislike the uncertainty. You can't plan for anything.

[Kylo Ren is back on the turtle, with a less dramatic entrance this time. And sans the helmet, which means you get a good look at the frown on his scarred face.]

I have been trying to get in touch with Lord Vader all day, but I was unable to do so. Master, if you receive this message, please respond to it.

[His frown deepens, annoyance bleeding into it now.] I must ask, is it normal to be sent back and forth at random? I found myself back where I should be as suddenly as I appeared here, and with no memory of my stay on this planet. Mere hours later, I woke up in the Wood Sector. When I got to the Welcome Center I was informed that two days had passed. I find it worrisome that I have no memory of that time.
