Coruscant- Wednesday

The Triumvirate knew when Ania had been found and arrested, and so they'd been prepared with a tribunal immediately after she'd been returned to Coruscant. It wasn't their first; the end of a war meant a lot of people had to answer for a lot of things. They had one representative from the Imperial Knights, the Jedi, and the Galactic Alliance, and Sia watched a private feed from her office.

So she got to see Antares lay out the case against Ania, who was accused of being confronted by an Imperial Knight named Teemen Alton after the liberation of the labor camp she'd been in, convicted of killing another man. She saw Yalta Val speak for her, and present some ridiculous argument that Alton's killer had had an artificial hand.

She also saw Jao Assam walk in in the middle of it all with said artificial hand, pulled off the woman he claimed actually did kill Alton, because as it turned out, the defense wasn't that ridiculous after all. Somehow.

It was a closed tribunal with very few people involved, so there wasn't much in the way of chaos with that revelation, but once that happened, it was pretty much over. Ania would go free. Jao would be arrested immediately, which he knew would happen.

And as Sia switched off the feed, that nagging feeling that she'd been screwing up only got worse.
