Sylvari's POV

I awoke to an empty room. Glancing around Kylo was nowhere to be seen.

"Had I imagined what had happened last night?" I wondered.

The hiss of the door sounded as Talia walked in.

"Hello, Princess. Lord Ren has instructed me to prepare you for today's schedule."

"Schedule?"

"Yes, Princess. Today is the first day Lord Ren is allowing you to leave your quarters, with supervision of course."

I was shocked. "He's letting me out?"

"Yes, Princess. First though, how do you feel today?"

"Good, Talia. I feel refreshed. Much better than I was."

"Glad to hear that Princess. Let's get started."

She ushered me to the bathroom.

Walking in, I caught my reflection in the mirror. It almost looked like I had a glow to myself. I certainly felt better after Kylo...

"Kylo...what exactly did he do?"

It was all so foggy from last night. I don't remember much.

Stepping into the bath I gasped with pleasure.

"Talia this bath feels divine." I said sinking in further up to my neck.

Kneeling on the edge of the bath Talia ushered me to come near her.

"Come here so I can wash your hair for you Princess."

I sat in the bath with my head tilted back so she could reach me.

Talia began her masterful wash as I hummed in pure bliss as her hands massaged my scalp.

"Princess." She said quietly.

"Yes, Talia." I said in a chipper tone humming to myself.

"So how are you doing here on this ship? Do you feel you are comfortable with your quarters?"

"I have grown to like my room even if it is my prison." I said sarcastically.

"All in good time princess. This will feel like your home soon enough."

I scoff at her for that remark. Noticing my disdain she begins telling me her life story.

She was a poor orphan girl on the verge of death when the First Order picked her up in her village. They fed her, clothed her, trained her and gave her a purpose in her life. She owed everything to the First Order. It was her life and home. Her life was theres to sacrifice for there cause.

"I'm sorry Talia. I just can't justify there methods of spreading fear and pain across the galaxy. They want ultimate dominion over the galaxy. The way they operate to get what they want is horrific." I said sternly.

Talia sighs thinking of what to say next.

"Well Princess someone has to rule or there will be chaos. One order to rule the galaxy will bring peace to us all."

Hearing her praise the First Order it sounded like she was a robot. A robot programmed to say the obvious First Order propaganda whenever confronted with disagreement over there cause.

I knew better. I could sense Talia not believing a word she was saying. Lying through her teeth, concealing her true intentions of wanting true freedom for herself.

"I don't wish to speak of this any longer Talia." I say partially upset.

"Alright, Princess. It's time to get out now."
