The Dark Repository was the singular location within the Dark Obelisk, where powerful artifacts and relics could be stored. Secured cases and containers lined the walls for artifact storage or display. Located one floor below the Throne Room, the Repository was added in to the Obelisk's construction plans shortly after Fortress Vader had been secured and Mustafar had been selected as the Blackguard's capital world. Guarded by two sentries by the entrance, as well as several sentries placed strategically within, the Repository was fairly well guarded and protected.

The Repository. One of his more favored locations within the Obelisk. Lesser known relics and artifacts were stored here, along with a handful of personal talismans that belonged to several members of the Imperium. Sitting on a waist high cabinet near the back wall was the Sith Chalice, a relic he had recovered from Fortress Vader during the Blackguard's very first relic hunt. On the wall above it, seated in a display bracket was the Blade of the Betrayer, a weapon recovered from the Blackguard Ruins here on Mustafar, after the Blackguard had fully established itself. And then the various shelves and cases around him contained numerous Sith Scrolls. A handful of holocrons were also present in the repository. Though none that contained any considerable power. All in all, there was still significant power in this place. Each item here held its own unique history. And each history contained numerous lessons to be learned. Despite being the Emperor of the Blackguard, the Sith'ari did enjoy spending time among the lost and forgotten. And today was no different. Ancient tomes, texts and scrolls had been cataloged here. And all of the collective information here was in turn, uploaded to the Archives. This kept the original artifacts and relics intact. And it also kept people our of the repository as well. Once Flvin returned from his relic hunt and Vallius returned with the holocron he requested, those too would be added to the Repository, growing the collection. Allowing his mind to wander, the Sith'ari thought back to a few difficult battles in which some of these relics and tomes had been acquired. Challenges overcome. Foes vanquished. All in all, he and the Blackguard had grown more powerful from his conquests. And they would continue to grow until he no longer had a need for it...

Dark Repository - Dark Obelisk of the Blackguard (After his revelation in his personal chambers)
Having composed himself enough to be seen by those under his employ, the Sith'ari had retreated to the Repository, reliving some of his greatest triumphs. Relics and artifacts dating back to the time of the Tyrian Triumvirate on Rhommamool and spanning all the way up until now, for some reason, this calmed his mind. The Elders went silent and he was able to hang on to the last threads of sanity that he had left. It wasn't much, but it was something. The few brief and fleeting moments of respite that he could enjoy before everything continued to spiral, mirroring his mental and physical health. Right now, he was occupied with a few personal relics, reminiscing over their acquisition, while waiting for Venom Starkiller to arrive...

The Zabrak Sith Lord had made his way from the hangar bays to the Dark Repository within the span of ten minutes. Upon arriving, he approached the Sith'ari and knelt down.
"Mi'lord."
With Kinyen secured and the rest of the Blackguard in flux, at least if the rumors swirling about the Obelisk were to be believed, indicated, then the Sith'ari surely was to be on edge. Though he couldn't read the Zabrak's thoughts, or even get a read on any of his emotions. All he could feel was a sense of exhaustion. Which was unusual for the Sith'ari. Though it wasn't his place to question his Emperor's state of mind or feelings. He and his brother, Valafar, had been treated as equals or even royalty in some circles within the Blackguard. Considering the past history between Clan Savage and Clan Starkiller, he had expected to be treated like a second-class citizen. But he hadn't. And so, that in itself, had earned his loyalty. And respect of the Sith'ari.

"Rise."
The Sith'ari placed a relic back down on its holder and turned to face the Starkiller.
"It has been brought to my attention that the Imperium is broken. In more ways than I had realized. Arrogant miscalculation on my part. But there it is..."
Walking towards the Zabrak, the Sith'ari motioned for him to fall into step and walk.
"That is not why I called you here, however. My son has...mistakenly though my lack of forward direction was the best time to usurp my rule on a few worlds...which has earned him the brand of a traitor to our greater cause. Petty squabbling and power grabs are not tolerated in the slightest. The Rule of Unity forbids it, and yet my son and my former Jen'ari betray that rule. A rule that was created by Malvus, no less...regardless of Malvus' actions and recent choices, he is none of my concern. He remains in the Sith Worlds and he and his traitorous ilk shall be left to their own devices. He dares to raise a hand against the Imperium and he and his followers will feel the full weight of my wrath...my son...on the other hand...can be dealt with."
Procuring a small hand held holoprojector from the folds of his robes, the Sith'ari held it up and activated it. It showed the watery moon of Nur.
"Fortress Inquisitorious. Formerly the training grounds for the Inquisitors during the reign of the first Galactic Empire, currently the abode of my child. I want you to gather up the Sith Knights and purge the fortress. I want any and all information my son left there. Once that is complete, sink the fortress to the depths of the ocean....TRAITORS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!!!"
roared the Sith'ari in anger as he flung the holoprojector across the room, a faint, transparent black flame seemed to lick his silhouette as he inhaled and exhaled rapidly in anger. Traces of a violet flame could be seen emanating from the corners of his eyes as his mind threated to succumb to the Elders residing within. Despite keeping a relatively level head over the whole ordeal, at least considering who he was, everything about it had managed to get under his skin and irritate him. To the point where he was a hair's width away from ordering the faction fleet and his own personal fleet to hunt each of the traitors down and bombard the worlds they hid on into oblivion. And, given his mental instability and the power the elders granted him, it was surprising that he hadn't lost his mind completely. The fact that he was still holding everything together was a true testament to his own willpower.

Venom rose to his feet and fell into step beside the Sith'ari as he motioned to. Listening intently, the Zabrak silently agreed with the Black Emperor. Malvus' betrayal was an insult and it made him a hypocrite. Though, surprisingly, the Sith'ari didn't seem interested in pursuing those that had betrayed the Imperium. Even if the Rule of Unity forbade any sort of Sith versus Sith infighting, Malvus needed to be taught a lesson. And all of those who followed his misguided attempt to "unite" the dark side, which was already a repetition of what the Blackguard was currently doing. Breaking his thoughts of this, the image of Nur and Fortress Inquisitorious appeared and the Sith'ari gave him his next task. Though what happened next was unexpected. Narrowly ducking in time to avoid the holoprojector as it was flung across the room, the Zabrak righted himself and decided it would be for the best if he just accepted the assignment and disappeared.
"Understood, my Emperor. I shall gather the Knights and set out immediately. I will report to you once I have completed my task."
The Zabrak bowed his head and spun on his heel to vacate the Repository as quickly as he could before the Sith'ari decided he would make an excellent punching bag. Not that Viox had ever indicated that before, but given how unstable he seemed and how utterly pissed off he was, he didn't want to take any chances.

Still seething with rage, the Zabrak watched as Venom departed. But the worst of his outburst had passed. At least for the time being. With Venom and the Sith Knights set to pillage and raze Fortress Inquisitorious, there was the next matter to attend to. With Malvus' betrayal and vacating his responsibilities, he needed a new Jen'ari. Someone loyal, trust-worthy and skilled enough to keep people in line and enforce his will. Someone who shared his vision and could see beyond the petty squabbling that often befell the Sith. And he had just the person in mind. Departing the repository, the Sith'ari would leave the Obelisk entirely, heading to Fortress Vader, where it all began...(Continued here)

Relics from conquered worlds, ancient hidden troves and even those of the current Sith within the Blackguard were contained here. One of the first acquired relics, the Sith Chalice, was contained here. Seated on a waist high cabinet near the back wall, the chalice sat gleaming under the overhead lights. Above the chalice, in an ornate obsidian bracket, was the original Blade of the Betrayer, which had been recovered from the Blackguard ruins here on Mustafar itself after the Imperium had become fully established on Mustafar. Handing on the wall to the left of the blade, was an incredibly rare Sith Shield. It's ornate appearance kept immaculate for display.*
*Adorning the right wall, was a series of tiered shelves, containing a multitude of Sith Holocrons, containing sums of knowledge and lore from both the past and the present. The Dark Holocron, a relic procured by the Sith'ari's son, was among the various holocrons on display. The Mustafar Sith Holocron was also on display, along with several of the Sith'ari's personal holocrons. An vast number of Sith Scrolls were also categorized and locked within the repository. A number of which had been pillaged from the Dark Force Temple on Dromund Kaas and the Sith Citadel on Ziost. And then there were the copies of the scrolls from Iridonia and the few relics unearthed from the abandoned Sith Academy on Kamino. All relics were eventually brought here, to be catalogued and even digitized and uploaded to the archives, if only to preserve the original copies. All in all, this was a place of powerful, forbidden knowledge. Very few members of the Blackguard had access to this room.
