I hold my hands up to Temari. “I know, mentor. It was underhanded, but it needed to be done. The Sith would have turned on us in the end. Allowing them to live would have been too dangerous... though I would have preferred Gavin have survived. He, at least, was cooperative, and could have served as a continued ally after I’d avenged his sister for him.”

“Saxon.” I say quietly. “All this was... what? Just a ploy to kill Cosen and get Zarka Saxon out of the picture!?” I am dumbstruck. “Av... Mand’alor, how could you do this? Turn on your own people?”

“Saxon has already turned on me! He was sowing the seeds of doubt among the other Clan Chiefs. It was only a matter of time before he really did form a coup to oust me as Mand’alor. All I did was preform an preemptive strike.” I look back at Temari. “But now the Allit’alor have fallen back into line. Nobody will dare question me now. I have no need for dishonorable schemes now that my rule is absolute.”
