Into the desert

Me life has been all topsy turvy with this whole Sidious thing. I ain't been able to keep up with this here journal the way I want. There's been so much going on I can hardly keep straight which day it is.

Anyway after Sidious holed up in Jaipur he took a flight up to Jaisalmer into the desert. This had me somewhat vexed since I couldn't make no rhyme nor reason as to what the bloke was up to. I knew for sure that he weren't having no meets and greets with any associates since I was watching him real close.

I had to take the shadows to get up to Jaisalmer and it weren't long before I found him holed up in a place called Shreenath Palace in the golden fort. I hadn't been to this place in centuries and it brought back fond memories of blood and fire... ah the good old days.

Originally it were them Mughals what owned the place but it looks like the Hindus have gotten it back seeing as the cows are walking the streets. Gots to be real careful were you step in that place. Now the fort is all loaded down with merchants and you can't hardly get two feet without someone trying to drag you into their store. I just gives the old demon glowing red eye trick and they backs right down. The tourists ain't got such powers.

After a few nights in that palace Sidious moved his base of operations further out into the desert to an oasis/camp called Mool Sagar. He still hadn't met with anyone! I thought maybe he was collecting ingredients for a spell, but as near as I could tell all he'd picked up was souvenirs! An agent of evil collecting India memorabilia? It just didn't seem right.

Anyway I kept me eye on him at Mool Sagar and ended up a bloody pink color for me troubles. It seems the locals around here celebrate something called Holi where they throw brightly colored dyes at each other. I wasn't watching me back and whole herd monkey children caught me in a cloud of pink dye.

It's just not right! The bloody stuff don't come out! It's embarassin' it is! Who in all of bloody hell heard of a pink demon?! It sounds like cocktail! I've been back a week now and I still can't get it out. The bloody dye soaked right through me human apparition into me demon skin! If the boys back in detention see me like this I'm going to be a laughing stock... Bucky saw me... don't much like be laughed at like that...
