Dozens of different species meeting and mingling. Hundreds of potentially dangerous individuals all converging in one place. Some most definitely a threat to any world and to the Nexus should the AV field ever waver. But nearly all a threat in some way.

And yet.

Quiet streets on a crisp morning in the plaza with no wind. Humans and non humans mingling to do their daily shopping and travel to and from their worlds. How is it in a place with so much chaos inherently present it's more peaceful here than Natasha's home world?

"How in the hell have we not destroyed this place and each other yet? My world's a mess and it doesn't have a third of the dangers this place does."

"Even in chaos, there's balance." It's not a strictly Sith teaching, but it's something she's learned through observation and survival. Even chaotic shit like the Sith Empire needs some form of balance to survive and thrive, let alone for as long as it has.

Which was why it was probably telling that things were falling apart with the Emperor's disappearance, and the inevitable vacuum that formed that was now letting the Sith Council politically infight without anything keeping them in check.

"I try not to bloody think too deeply on it, because when I do, it's worrying and frightening all at once. There is some sort of balance at work here, although what it is, I've got no idea."
