"Games, that's all it ever was to them." He mused, keeping a hand locked onto his prisoner's upper arm. While the fool probably wouldn't try anything, one never could tell.
Fey he seemed, or the battle-fury of his fathers ran like new fire in his veins, and he was borne up on Snowmane like a god of old, even as Oromë the Great in the battle of the Valar when the world was young. - The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
Tarkin didn't disagree. He kept walking in silence.
"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." -Karis Nemik
No more words were said till they finally exited the trees and came back out on the open plains.

"My tent is that way." Tarkin pointed ahead of him. "Keep low; the creatures out here will spot us without a doubt."

Sirejj mumbled something under his breath, not happy about spending the next two days crammed in a tent with Tarkin.

Tarkin, still keeping an eye on his charges, punched a few commands into his comm bracelet.

Sirejj watched him like a hawk. There'd be no rest for him for the next 48 hours. But he'd been through worse. Maybe.

Tarkin glanced at him, frowning. "I'm punching in coordinates for the meet-up, nothing more," he said curtly.

"Wouldn't have it any other way, carry on." He still stared at him. He'd occasionally glance at the prisoner, who might have been thinking of a way to escape, but his chances were poor. However, the chance of betrayal by Tarkin was high, so he applied his attention accordingly.

"Do you prefer being ordered around and treated like a plain old soldier then?" He prodded, never asking a useful question, only jabbing ones.
