A Private Obituary
Darth Ahandra Yaira Horuset died as she lived, arrogantly believing in the righteousness of her cause to the point of personal undoing. In an attempt to summon a spirit of the ancient Sith Eroi, a first generation descendant of the Jin’Jidai, she made the assumption that such a being would surely see her as a worthy successor and would flock to her obviously correct ideology. No thought was given to the possibility that she was wrong, that her views would not match those of the ancient Sith. For she was a champion of the old ways, of conservatism. This ignores the fundamental fact that the Jin’Jidai were not conservative. They were radical reformers and conquerors of society. Such a creature would look upon the Dark Lord’s desire to return to their times with disdain. In three and a half thousand years have no new ideas come to pass? Is this slave to tradition truly incapable of innovation of her own?
Yes, as it turns out. The Dark Lord was a woman out of time, more content to act as priest to gods she did not believe in to manipulate the chattel beneath her. Yet stripped away, that was perhaps her only lever of significant control. When spoken to on a personal level she was not silver tongued and manipulative, not passionately persuasive. Perhaps in her heyday she had been but by the end of her life all she had were sardonic put downs and threats. Such is insufficient to retain power in the long run, except for the fact that so many beneath her were incapable of seeing past them.
She possessed vast power yet her usage of her gifts was painfully mundane at times, a sledgehammer of telekinetics or lightning applied without subtlety or grace, or anything beyond the low cunning of a soldier with a flamethrower who believed the world was made of paper. A believer in power, but not in the ways of the Sith. A Sith is not a blunt weapon, incapable of change or adaptation. She, it seems, was such in all things.
She leaves her family less than she found it, her esteemed father dead at her hand, the second greatest of her blood not close to ascending to her title and a husband of convenience taking her throne. But why? I have a suspicion it was a rot found so often in those beneath her, learned from her: a fundamental inability to teach and raise an Apprentice as a Sith not as a tool. Look at those she has raised up, are any of them not-self taught at best or incapable at worst, or even transfers from other masters she claimed when someone else had done the hard work? Decades of this attitude has raised Sith into the upper echelons who have vast limitations and yet are too baked into these to correct. They should have been corrected as Apprentices yet her attitude failed to do so. Atas shares her view of power, a runaway train of a Sith Lord unable and unwilling to change direction. Zevasa, Arvanis and Natsiji, narrow minded puritans. Temekel a Sith more at home in a tea room gossiping than in taking control of her underlings. Yutal, a traitor to both Empire and matrimony.
Her influence can be seen down the generations into Sith like Tarimra, Zarchas, Kalkoran and more. To the credit of Lord Sarias, her brood seem to have largely escaped this curse with several competent Sith passing through her. Yet the rot persists in the alien lines as well. It is no accident Krevas has had to kill so many she has claimed for heresy. I look through the powerbase directory and so many lists of Apprentices contain 2/3rds or more “Neophyted”, "Transferred", “Killed” and yet so few "Succeeded". Some Apprentices fail, true but a master should have the capability to select and raise competent students well. She did not.
The rot persists in her unimpressive children and within the Horuset bloodline as a whole. Korriz, Xulia, Valeus and more seek to emulate her without the power behind her words and thus exposing the hollowness of her method. A fault with Sith dynasties is that the less impressive ride on the cape-tails of the skilled. Horuset is no exception to this.
A Sith must be more than just power. Power alone does not achieve without direction and it is this failure of direction that is her deepest Sin. As one who refused to consider modulation yet viewed any deviation from her tried and true methods to be Sin. No, that is innovation. That is what has fuelled the wider Sith Order for millennia. There is irony in her path taking her closer to a dark reflection of the Jedi, refusing to adapt, refusing to change unless forced to by circumstance and even then craving the comfort of stasis.
Darth Horuset III illustrated the failings of the world view that the galaxy must adapt to her, rather than her to it. She squandered resources on the denial of aliens that could have been used in the denial of the Republic. She wasted what knowledge she had by not passing it on before her death. She could be easily lied to and manipulated for of course her will was supreme and she was capable of detecting any lie. She failed to teach or to argue for her ideology, instead content to threaten those who disagree.
In her death, those previously bound to her by obligation shall feel no compulsion to follow her will. In imposing stasis without understanding consensus, she has allowed for half a dozen other ideologies to build in secret beneath her with nothing binding them together, yet each untested and un-argued. I expect many months of coalition building as new factions form, merge, split and rebuild in her wake.
She is survived by her husband, Trakaton Kalkoran (Now Darth Horuset IV) who lacked the will to oppose her in life and two children of no note.
