Outer Rim of the galaxy, Serenno, Count Dooku's private residence.

The Supreme Leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Count Dooku, stood tall in a black cloak as he respectfully knelt on one knee before the hologram of Darth Sidious.

"Do you have any further information on the Archangel of Death?" Darth Sidious asked in his twisted voice.

"I have exhausted every avenue of investigation, yet I have found no intelligence whatsoever. Where he has appeared, what he has done—I know nothing. He seems to have done many things, yet also nothing at all... It confuses me greatly," Count Dooku said.

"He is a renegade secretly taken in by Darth Pregas, a sinful disciple who defied the Rule of Two! His existence is affecting our plans. Kill him, at any cost," Darth Sidious said.

"All we know for now is that the former Jedi apprentice Edra Kestis has become the Archangel of Death's disciple and was granted the name Darth Lilim. Judging by the strength she displayed during the raid on Sarabin Planet, she is indeed no ordinary opponent. She may even surpass many Jedi Masters. By that reasoning, the Archangel of Death may be even more powerful," Count Dooku replied. "The name Darth Lilim has already been recorded in the Book of Sith. That is the feedback I received from the Dark Side."

Beneath his hood, Darth Sidious's sharp chin twisted slightly. "The Archangel of Death killed the master we shared, Darth Pregas! Though Darth Pregas brought that upon himself, it also proves that the Archangel of Death is rebellious and uncontrollable! He seized the Book of Sith from Darth Pregas! Therefore, you must kill him. Without the Book of Sith, you cannot gain recognition from the Sith path and cannot become a true Sith Lord!"
