..And so she pledged her loyalty to me. “Lord Mantis...” I heard her say, “will you train me in the arts of the Sith, I want my revenge on those who killed my mother!” Little did she know the power she could have at her command. Her parentage proved that one fact beyond all others.
Who am I, that can comment on her parentage? Well the one who has knowledge holds the key to all things, and those hold the keys have the power. I know more of her history than, perhaps even she does herself. Her bloodline is strong in not only the force but in the ability to lead. Even in this pitiful form she now inhabits, there is an intelligence and a strength not seen within this galaxy for almost a galactic decade.
 
Her mother, Ysanne Isard, One of the few in My former Master Emperor Palpatine's court who knew of my existence, in fact it was her who covertly handled all goings on between my complex and the Imperial court, as well as troop and ship deployments to the outpost, The Madame Director was a strong, Magnificent woman, she would have made a powerful sith, but alas, nor her or her family lineage had any history of force strong individuals, although her daughter does not have the ..distinctive eye colouration as her mother, she has that piercing gaze, one which burns with an inner fire of determination.

as to who her father was...well it was clear it had to be someone strong in the force, judging by how powerful she is, there was something...i sensed from he moment we met..it was a familiar sense, at first i assumed it was because of who her mother was..until a D.N.A. test showed the reason for my familiarity.. she was Emperor Palpatine’s daughter.. even in my isolated outpost there were rumours of the Emperor and the Madame Director being lovers.. this evidence proved it, apparently from what she told me.. she was hidden from her father.. it seems even Isard wasn't as coldblooded as she seemed, hiding her child instead of allowing the Emperor train her to be one of his hands.. or would he have another use for the child.

From what I have been told when her mother was finally killed aboard the Lusankya, the younger Isard decided that she would seek revenge on the Republic.. but inexperienced in the arts of combat.. and unable to grasp her budding force powers she sought out help from an unlikely source, the newly opened Jedi Academy in the hope of learning how to use her powers before turning on her teachers.. her plan would have clearly failed, the Jedi Academy is where the Pacifistic fools learn how not to use their gifts, but as it turned out her hate was unfocused, she ws confused, and struggled to learn the ways of the force, after over a year trying, she left in a rage, and took off in the Academys shuttles, she hoped to get in contact with the remnant, but instead contacted one of my Star destryers as it was making a supply run.

Captain Reezen, A capable man who came to me after Warlord Zsinj's little empire fell, immediately knew that I would find this young lady interesting and brought her toward me as soon as he returned, that was when i sensed her power and through my guidance is begining to relise at least some of her potential, she will be a worthy Sith. I decided  to put her natural leadership skills to use, I have given her the job of co-ordinating our troops with our new Chiss allies, it seems one of her fellow students and sparring partner at the so called academy was a Chiss... Yes, Valaria Iabe Isard indeed deserves the title of Sith Apprentice.
