The Streets Painted Crimson were a series of events that took place starting 40 ABY, directly involving the Guardian Corps of Clan Odan-Urr. Although initially appearing to be an isolated murder case at first, the situation rapidly evolved into a much wider conspiracy deep within the Kiast system.

Conflict Details

A long Way to Fall

Stretched thin due to losses in the previous Vatali Civil War, law enforcement officers in the Voraskel Palace called in members to help resolve a possible murder. A distant relative of the Empire's royal family, Bellaran Anasaye, had been thrown from his home's window in one of the city's eastern spires. Quickly suspecting that murder was involved thanks to the markings on his body and with only a few officers on hand, the Odnites were tasked with trying to help uncover anything behind the murder. A multitude of members arrived, including both Essik Lyccane and Marl Gondor to examine the findings.

Ryan Hawkins was quick to identify multiple stab wounds on the subject and the oddity of their nature, having inflicted them and then pushed the man from such a high place. Furthemore, the stabs themselves had bypassed easy killing strikes, focusing upon his eyes, mouth, and wrists, but avoiding means to swiftly end Bellaran's life. Hawkins, Essik, and Aura Ta'var worked to piece together details from the corpse and his belongings, using Psychometry to read details from a previous gathering, noting feelings of unease surrounding one visitor. While Bellaran was not noted to have any major enemies in politics and was something of a recluse, he was noted for being a scholar and writer by nature, usually only using his name in an effort to ease support toward areas of the Empire he felt needed to be strengthened. Although there were some forensic efforts made to recover details, the body had been doused in a chemical that had erased any species identifiers or remnants.

At the same time, Marl Gondor investigated the surrounding back alleys and areas, finding a mysterious message that had recently been added. The meaning and letters surrounding it were unclear, as the figure daubing it on the walls had been interrupted. The witness to this, a small girl, mentioned that the figure had disappeared the second that he realised he was being watched.

Further breakthroughs were made by Creon and Neza-Rem Zarabi, as they looked into the tower and the man's room. The area had been defaced with Sith symbols angled at odd positions, something Neza-Rem noted was habitual of mocking or countering a rival. They quickly pieced together that there had been a limited fight at first, and that Bellaran had been forced into his office chair only to be injected with an unknown liquid. Given that he was not bound, this was suspected to be drugs. Bellaran had eventually resisted, likely being thrown through the window during an act of defiance. Creon, meanwhile, was able to identify the nature of several surrounding books and items, most of which appeared to have been intact. However, one had been thrown out of sight, and a blood speck on the interior marked it as something he was examining at the time of his arrival. It outlined activities of the Church of the Force during its earliest days, their rituals, and failed attempts to establish themselves among certain settlements.

Although they made some headway, the group was unable to identify the attacker in question. It was, however, clearly an act of murder, likely by a group associated with Sith teachings. Unable to gain more information at that time, the Odanites allowed the police to take over, returning to their duties until anything more could be found.
