IC KOTA: Bastion
She made her way to an abandoned building. It hadn't been used in some time, reconstruction was going to take time, a s well as filling it. She stood there in her red armor and helmet eyeing the building. Kota would have to get the old records and sort through them to make sure same mistakes weren't being done again. The last time this office existed in the Empire it was full of corruption as the Emperor and Vader were under control. She was neither, the dark side held to much over the Empire. It was time to change. This is the office where she would start.

The data records were removed carefully by the construction team, as was anything else of value. Kota wanted to do this herself, but the building was deemed unsafe. So the crew themselves had to do it with safety harnesses. It was better this way anyway, she could see to a new design. Also there would be no reminder of the Emperor's hand in the office. Besides she could see herself destroying the building anyway, if it had been safe, just because. Kota was to start fresh with this position, the building, the rules, what is done, just a few of the things. Though she did wish she didn't have to stand here in her armor and helmet. Just the looks she got some times of fear made her a bit uncomfortable. She was just Division Alpha to them, Argus's hand for the nasty jobs, there was no real report on what she did. Just that when she was required it wasn't to play nice.

When everything was safely moved, they started to tear the old building down. She pulled up the new plans on a nearby holo table. Kota wanted the new building to blend into the surrounding buildings rather than stand out. This was so that anyone attempting to target the building would have to know exactly where it was to threaten it. The inside was to be different, underground was to be the new prison for force users. Up above on the ground floor would be welcome center of sorts. Training floor above that, research above that, then offices and council rooms.

Months would pass by the time they had dug the prison out. She showed up every day to make sure things were going well. The prison had a simple design, a lift would be installed to transport a prisoner up or down. The lift itself would only stop two places the prison level and the security floor which was at the very top above the offices and council floor. It wouldn't be on the blueprints for records, but it was to reason that if security failed those on the next floor would handle it. After all only the top inquisitors would be up there. In the prison itself would have force cages installed, as well as cameras for each one. The cameras would be at a station in the prison and upstairs in security, two eyes watching at all times, as well as two alarms. A separate power source would be installed from the rest of the building for the prison as well as a backup. Kota thought underground some where but that might be a risk. She would have to get a second opinion on whether or not that was a good idea.

While she waited to figure out how to wire the prison the shaft in which the lift would be placed was being built. It had to be thicker than a lightsaber could cut in a matter of minutes. Kota wanted it to take hours to cut through, buy this time security would be on the escape. How one got their lightsaber back would suggest that there was an insider. Such a thing wouldn't be kept in the prison, but in security. The shaft would only have a security floor exit and entry. The prisoner would be flown in and blindfolded, while in force shackles to prevent them from trying anything. This way one didn't know the layout of the complex without being there.

With the wiring being done a decision had to be made on where the power generator was going to go. Kota decided to place it underground about twenty feet from the prison unmarked on the official blueprints much like the security level. The backup would be twenty feet from the building in the other direction, again unmarked on the official blueprints. One couldn't​ be to careful when it came to designing a prison that was an Inquisitors office. Some of the crews started the holes where the power generators were to be placed. She would make sure a crew was able to access the generators for maintenance, neither would be easy or marked for security purposes.

Once the shaft reached above ground it would continue up. To make it not stand out it would be masked as a support pillar for the rest of the building. This way guest wouldn't know it was there nor would it be an obvious eye sight. Unless someone knew it was there or saw the unofficial blueprints it would be unknown. Construction of the main welcome floor would begin. This would be open to all imperial citizens, for them to get basic information on the inquisitors and their role in the Empire, even a tour to a certain point. Just to assure citizens that they were protecting the citizens.

It would be several more months before the first​ floor would be completed. They had to make sure that all the support pillars matched the width and length of the shaft going to the prison. This was to farther ensure that it would not stand out. The floor would be decorated upon completion of the remaining floors, it would hold the Empire standard in the entrance along that would be a smaller symbol of the Inquisitors. One she had not designed of yet, but it would be there to distinguish them from the regular troops. Kota hoped that with time perhaps the symbol would be on an Inquisitors outfit. Granted the Empire would need more than just one, but that would come with time.
The second floor would be training, much like troops would. One would be physically and mentally trained on this floor, with training rooms. Any training would take place, they would not be hiding the fact that they were force users. The citizens needed to embrace the fact that not all force users were Jedi or Sith. This was a concept long lost on this galaxy.

Each training room would be built to with stand some amount of force use. Kota thought about building another facility not far from this building for more powerful force practice. However this project needed to be finished before such a project could start. The rooms would be padded too, didn't want anything to harmful to happen.
The next floor would be research, all kinds. A room for data, anything the Empire had or knew even rumors. There would be a few rooms for experiments, they might be necessary, along with a few medical rooms, in case they were needed.

It would be months longer for the third floor to be completed. The data room would have access to imperial data bank as well as one for the Inquisitors to build upon. It would be essential for them to have knowledge and build upon their own. Once the building was complete Kota would start the Inquisitors data bank and fill out a few things, it would wait however at this point in time. The experiment rooms would have access to science equipment of all sorts, anything a normal scientist would have. Nothing would be hidden here as far as experiments went, this was open for the public to see. One couldn't have a force user creating something devious, it might cause concern for the Inquisitors to be shut down, she couldn't have that. Finally on this floor provided a medical wing, it would be filled with the last technical equipment and technology as far as treatment went. One couldn't be to careful, not everyone could heal themselves or others. One needed to be prepared for the worst.
