The door opens onto the library and Cassian stops for a moment to marvel at all the paper books, he's never seen so many before.

In his work he hasn't had reasons to go to libraries and gently reaches out to touch the shelves and see where they might need to go.

"I don't know," Ibani replies, gaze distant. "My only plan so far is to get in a position where I can slip changes in under the radar, ease things along a better path. Luckily, the Emperor doesn't directly involve himself in government much these days, it's beneath his notice."

Ibani catches Cassian's look, but since he doesn't appear to be getting hostile, lets it pass without comment.

"Inside the Empire? There are some, people who want to reform the Empire, but they have to keep a very low profile and I'm not in a position where I can assist the one group I know of."

She sighs. "I was ordered by a Sith to find out who their leader was so they could be taken and interrogated. I managed to pin the blame on the Sith's Master, bringing the investigation to a stand-still, but me contacting the group would place them all at terrible risk."

"Have to find someone I could trust first, which is quite the obstacle at the moment."

"And things are heading back toward open war with the Republic, which is likely to make any would be reformers keep their heads down until it's over." Ibani is clearly Not Thrilled with this.

"Not recently, at least so far as I know," Ibani admits. "The Dark Council has tried to overthrow the Emperor in the past twice and was utterly crushed both times."

She frowns. "But it could be that Imperial Intelligence is just good at covering up and doing away with people who fight back before they become public knowledge."

"It is demoralizing, feeling alone in the fight," she agrees. "I'll just have to hope that there are other people out there, even if I don't find any sign of them."

"Nothing I can think of that couldn't be easily tracked back to me," Ibani replies. "I have to be EXTREMELY careful to seem like what they expect me to be. It's dangerous to think I'm ever NOT being watched outside of Milliways."

The downside of being a Sith, people pay attention to you!

"Cameras for sure, spies, informants, probably other ways I'm not thinking of."

"There's no symbol, so far as I know. I'm not sure what we could even USE for something like that, not that would be easily recognizable."

"Ah, the Starbird, the symbol of the Republic even in my time," she says, looking at the what Cassian has sketched.

"I don't know that the cracked symbol would work, not for us. We don't want to destroy the Empire, just make it BETTER."

Ibani is silent for a good minute, thinking. "I don't know," she says at last. "The Imperial crest is about the only symbol you see in Imperial space anymore. If we had other symbols, they were stamped out long ago." A thousand years is a long time to work on a population and a culture, prune it into the shape you want.

Ibani chuckles wryly. "Easier said that done. Most of my focus so far has been on surviving and climbing the ranks."

"I'm aiming for the Dark Council, eventually," Ibani replies. "That's as high as anyone can get in the Empire, unless I figure out a way to kill the Emperor."

"A lot of work, and sufficiently impressing people to get myself promoted to Darth and then promoted again to the Dark Council."

She pauses. "Which means I need to kill someone who's on the Dark Council and their apprentice, or they need to die without an apprentice and the Emperor selects me to replace them."

"Death and blood," Ibani agrees. "Especially among Sith. Officially we're not allowed to attack each other, but that just means you have to be careful not to get caught."
