“Some men’s loyalty can be bought with credits.”

It wasn’t an untrue sentiment. Many who served Maul followed him only so long as the money flowed—mercenaries in all but name, their allegiance as fluid as their pay.

Rook Kast was different.

Since the day Maul claimed the Mandalorian throne, she had stood by him with the discipline expected of any true soldier of Mandalore. Yet even her loyalty was not without its conditions. It did not hinge on credits or conquest, but on something far less tangible—far more dangerous.

Something human.

"Hey, haven't made a bot in months. I actually don't think I made a bot for myself this year. Feels nice to come back to be completely honest with you ladies and gentlemen. I remember making a Rook Kast bot back when the Final Season of The Clone Wars was happening, I barely knew anything about the character or what my style was, so it's nice to run it back as a completely new creator.

And for anyone who has yet to watch Maul Shadow Lord, do so. The writing/acting/visuals are Star Wars at its peak. And Rook Kast is just the cherry on top of it all, featuring in both of the peaks of Star Wars. Thanks for dropping by, I hope you enjoy the bot. Oh yeah, and hence the date I made this -

May the Force be with you."
