[ It's early November when Orpheus posts to the network again, this time sitting cross-legged on the floor of his bedroom with his guitar in his lap and the Omni propped up in front of him. The camera catches him leaning back after having set it to broadcast, and he waves as the recording starts. ]

Hi, everyone! I'm Orpheus, and, I thought of something that might be nice for us to do together? I know we're all busy building new lives here, but I don't think that means we have to forget the places we came from completely, or leave those memories behind. Unless you want to? That's fair too.

[ He pauses briefly, looking thoughtful and a little solemn as he considers that, before shaking his head and getting himself back on track.]

But! In my experience a big part of any place a person calls home is the stories that people tell there and the songs they sing, and it seems like it might be nice to share those with each other, as a way of giving each other a glimpse into where we came from, and of preserving them for the future. It can be anything you want to tell us about, whether it's a piece of history or a legend or a song or even a nursery rhyme you like. You don't have to share anything if you don't want to, of course, but I'd really love to hear anything and everything people are willing to add.

Was that taboo?

[He nods and mimes zipping his lips.] Hushed.

If it was back then, it hasn't been for a very long time. Hybrids between humans and other humanoid species are not unheard of, given the propensity of humans and the genetic compatibility they have with many other species, but it is rare for it to take place for so long and over so many generations that it creates an entirely new subspecies on its own. Of course, looking at any Nightkin you'd be hard-pressed to find any sort of human characteristics beyond the most superficial, so it appears the dominant genes were Zabrak in this case.

I can't even argue about the human propensity to fuck, no.

Huh. That's kinda cool, though.

.....That is one way to put it, yes.

[Really, human beings were like a disease given how they'd prospered throughout the galaxy.]

I am glad someone thinks so. This is all common knowledge in the galaxy so not many there care to hear about it anymore.

Well it's new to me, dude. You can tell me whatever stuff you like.

Duly noted. You are a seeker of knowledge and that is never a bad thing. I shall have to pass some onto you.

[One of the few good tenants of the Sith was their desire to pass on all that they knew to their successors. As Maul was officially done with the Rule of Two, he was ready to pass on as much as he could to those here in Trench, as he intended to make it his home for the foreseeable future.]
