It had been a month since the absolute massacre that Mordain and his forces had committed. Along with having managed to make Aayla Secura fall to the dark side and join him by playing on her sibling-like attachment with him, something that he never intended to abuse or break, things had been going well.

(A/N, dark side Aayla)
After going for a long while without indulging himself in the dark side, it felt refreshing to finally be able to go out there and just be a Sith, be a Sith in the lineage of Darth Bane. However, over the last few weeks, the Count of Serreno had been thinking about what Sidious once told him, about his own Master, Darth Plagueis the Wise. Of course, Mordain knew how Plagueis had died, and how he'd lived.
His Grandmaster had been a scientist, always on the prowl for new knowledge to be explored in the dark side. This had all culminated in what Plagueis had been able to do, manipulate the Midi-chlorians like they were his personal plaything. After Sidious had killed him, he had taken on Plagueis' notes about such a thing, learning the basics before passing them off to Mordain, but not Dooku as he didn't trust him as much as he did Mordain, where the young Sith Lord had delved deeper than Sidious had expected him to, being able to manipulate the Midi-chlorians on a level that was below Plagueis, but far above Sidious.
After having thought about Sidious' plans for the galaxy, or what he knew of them, Mordain had developed a simply INGENIOUS plan, one which would screw over Sidious AND the Republic, whilst also giving the CIS the edge it needed. The plan was quite simple. Use the Midi-chlorians...to resurrect Darth Plagueis the Wise.
Using the ashes from the Urn that Sidious had gifted him, which had been by pure coincidence that Mordain found them, he would use the dark side, and the ability to manipulate the Midi-chlorians to the best of his ability, and re-build Plagueis' body, before imbuing it with the Midi-chlorians Mordain had absorbed when he sucked them right out of the Zygerrian species a while back.
(A/N, again, no clue if you can actually do this but for the sake of the story, let's say it's possible)
Mordain walked into his throne room to find Drina practicing with Aayla, who had been excelling in the dark side. Both of them looked up to see the grinning Count as he walked down to his desk and picked up the jar that Plagueis' ashes were stored in before Drina spoke up.
Drina: My lord?
She asked in question as she saw him pick up the jar and walk to the centre of the room.
Mordain: Drina my dear sister, what I am about to do will give us the edge that we need to pummel the Republic and Jedi.
This time it was Aayla's turn to speak up.
Aayla: With some...ashes?
Mordain: (Grinning) Ah, not just ashes elder sister. Tell me, do either of you know who's ashes these are?
