Situated on the top floor of the main tower, it was basically a self sustained apartment. Three large windows opened up on the north and south walls to reveal sweeping views of the surrounding forest and the city in the distance. The ground floor was an open planned area that had a desk placed in front of the north windows, with several spots where extra seats could rise from the ground nearby.
A stair case along the west wall lead up to the second level which consisted of four small bedrooms and one main bedroom along the east wall, along with a large bathroom up the north end that had a shower and a bath in it, along with a number of other amenities, and a small kitchen/dining room down the south end

After Gunter had cleaned his body, trimmed his lanky braids, and filed his claws down to a manageable length, he arrived at the Master's Quarters of the Jedi Temple to meet with Honoghr's new leading Jedi Master. Garbed simply in a brown tunic and cloak, both fit to his small stature, Gunter carried nothing with him save for his lightsaber, which remained clipped to the belt that held his tunic in place around his waist. His joints were feeling better, as was his back. He felt more his age, despite the five long years of solitude and meditation, and the Force was more alive within him than it had ever been. The troubles of the past three-hundred years of his life seemed to have lessened; he felt revitalized.
The green-skinned Jedi entered the Master's Quarters contentedly to find Zion waiting for him. He approached the man with his hands tucked within the sleeves of his cloak, his grey-white braids hanging against his chest. Taking steps towards the room's viewport, Gunter looked out over the vast forests surrounding the Jedi Temple. A sea of green rolled up and down as far as Gunter's eyes could see. An affect of his meditations, Gunter maintained a vastly higher level of awareness by default, feeling the presence of the living beings around him as they shifted and altered the currents of the Force during the course of their existence. It was a feeling that carried a great weight, one that Gunter would have to adapt to, in time.
"War." Gunter grumbled. "Heh. Never changes, war does."

Zion made it up to the Masters Quarters before Gunter, giving him time to explore the Masters Quarters as he made his way up the stairs to the second floor. He managed to find the kitchen and gathered together a couple cans of preserved food, a couple bottles of water and some containers with some fresh looking food, which he carried down to the desk and spread it out to give Gunter his choice of the meager supplies.
He would need to ensure some new supplies were brought in quickly to restock the kitchens, since he had a feeling no one had bothered to do much about restocking food supplies that weren't in the students quarters. He then turned towards the window behind the desk and looked out it as he waited for Gunter to arrive. Zion didn't have to wait long though as Gunter soon turned up, stopping beside him as they both looked out the window. He nodded in agreement with Gunter's words

We should be so lucky if it did. The tools might change, but the mass of death will always follow. It is just one of the many terrible truths about life that we cannot escape...

 The two masters become strongly aware of a sudden presence in the Force, a fairly powerful signature, but a confusing one. It is like sensing the whole world on an epic scale, and the whole world's presence is concentrated into one location, at the threshold of the room. Ann Chalinda slowly materializes out of the ground, her form appearing as a part of the floor for a moment, taking on a feminine shape as she slowly completed the reverse melting. When her form completely melts into place, the stone texture of her skin finally changes to a tan complexion, her hair mottles into a firm black color, and her Sith-like eyes begin glowing its core and magma light. She gazes steadfastly at Zion Morviael, bowing lightly in greeting."Forgive my intrusion, masters," she says, "but I felt it prudent to inform you of the arrival of one Althalos. He is a Force user, though he claims no allegiance to either the Jedi or Sith. I've placed him in the Guest Quarters for the time being, where he is presently. Should you wish to speak with him, he ought to be there."She bows low once again, and melts back into the floor, disappearing, and taking her Force signature with her, vanishing from senses almost completely once more. It is like she is now spread out across the entire building. |

A couple minutes later, Amber lead the way into the Masters Quarters, Asani no doubt not far behind. She stopped in the middle of the room and gave a fake cough before presenting Asani to Zion and the green hobbit man
=Amber Caird=
Sorry for the interruption, but a new student has arrived, her name is Asani...

Gunter nodded with closed eyes as Zion elaborated on his own expressed thoughts. This Jedi was indeed well suited for his role as Master here on Honoghr, Gunter reflected. As he cleared his throat, Gunter looked out over the expansive forests once more, taking in not just their sight with his eyes, but the life that exploded from them through the Force. It was all worth protecting…
"Consider, we must, our course of action, Jedi Zion." Gunter grumbled, his voice gravelly. He shifted his weight back and forth on his tridactyl feet, his claws scratching lightly at the floor as he flexed them gently. Resettling himself with his arms crossed over his chest, Gunter looked up at Zion, his ears twitching as he moved.
"I must know what forces the Jedi still have to apply against the Mandalorian Clans. Learned, I did, of a great restructuring of the Jedi Order, three years after I entered my meditations. I could see the minds of each sect of the Order as they had been, and change they did, shifting, flowing, one into another. Told me, this does, that many Jedi moved, one place to another. Interesting to see how this developed, it is."
Unfortunately, before Jedi Zion could respond, the pair of Masters were interrupted rather abruptly by a growing presence within the Force. Some would feel it and say it materialized from no where, but Gunter could see the particles of matter that comprised this entity within his mind's eye, represented by a large sheet of energy, coalescing into a single being that seemed to produce itself from the very material of the Temple itself.
Gunter turned, his piercing brown eyes catching sight of a small woman standing within the center of the room. A simple message was all she offered, regarding a Force User within the Temple, before melting away into the room's floor once more. Gunter watched within the currents of the Force as her presence seemed to dissipate and vanish, though he continued to track the particles of her composition as they mingled with the surrounding environment.
An interesting trick, Gunter noted, with much respect for the girl's capabilities.
Gunter returned his attention to Zion, intent on hearing his thoughts once again, before being interrupted a second time by a soft coughing sound. Turning yet again, he saw a young female accompanied shortly after by another.
The green-skinned Jedi looked the two over in silence, his lips pursed, then looked up at Master Zion. "Have you no peers to assist with the daily routines of a Jedi Temple, Master Zion?" Gunter inquired, a hint of amusement touching the corner of his mouth.

Zion nodded as Gunter proposed that they should consider a course of action with regards to the Mandalorian threat. He looked down at his fellow Jedi as the man spoke of having learned of the joining of the Jedi Orders and wanting to know what forces the Jedi had at their disposal against the Mando's.
But before he could answer, he suddenly felt his spine prickle as Ann materialized from the floor of the temple. He turned towards her as she informed him that Athalos had arrived. He nodded to Ann as she melted back into the floor, leaving him and Gunter alone again. He had a feeling he would never fully get used to her doing that.
He then was about to answer Gunter when Amber came in and interrupted them again, to present a Kushiban who was interested in studying at the temple. He turned to Gunter as the man questioned if he had any assistants. He just smiled at the man, certain his answer would take the man by some surprise
=Zion Morviael=
As I mentioned earlier, I have only just started here and with the extra students, all hands are on deck teaching and attending to them. As for peers, There is no other Masters around that I know of left on the planet. So it falls to me to take care of this matters, not that I am overly bothered, I am sure I'll find a few trusted allies to help me out soon enough, excuse me a moment...
He then turned back towards Amber and the Kushiban as he took a couple steps towards the pair and stopped. He took a moment to examine the new arrival before he gave a short bow
=Zion Morviael=
Welcome to the Academy. What has brought you here, young one?

Asani follows Amber into the Master's Quarters, and looks up at both Gunter and Zion, holding back a chuckle at the question of whether Zion has anyone to assist in taking care of the routine tasks of running the temple. When Zion greets her, she turns her attention fully upon him and nods as she gives a simple and direct answer.
"Thank you. I have come here to learn, to grow in the ways of the Force."

Zion nodded as Asani explained she wanted to grow in the ways of the force, a noble quest for any padawan learner, both good and evil. He then searched through the force for the Kushiban, to see just how far along she was already, gauging her skill level would allow him to know where to start off
=Zion Morviael=
I must tell you now, all aspects of the force are explored here, both, what you have come know as, the good and the evil. Each teacher is entitled to their own views, so you have come to the right place if what you say is true. Knowledge is an open book, it is up to each individual to interpret that knowledge for either good or evil. So how do you feel about that?

Gunter acknowledged Zion's reply with a simple nod, though his lip twitched imperceptibly as he listened to the other Jedi's words regarding his broad-spectrum approach to the knowledge of the Force. Although Gunter raised within the Jedi Order of the Galactic Republic, he had always maintained an open mind in terms of the nature and teachings of the Jedi. Dogma was not something he had chosen to enforce as heavily as others while he grew into his role as a Master some decades before the Great Jedi Purge, though Gunter readily recognized the dangers of such open-ended methods of teaching, especially in new students. He wondered briefly if the reestablishment of the Jedi under Luke Skywalker had not come with certain unexpected disadvantages. Leaving teachers to their own devices, with little standardization in methodology allowed for a more personalized learning experience on behalf of the student, though such an approach often led to great lapses in judgement on the part of the Master. For the moment, Gunter masked his concern and internalized these worries. Such things were better discussed in private, where young minds would not be swayed.
He continued listening to Zion's conversation with the new student, a Kushiban with cream-colored fur, content at least to see that the growth of the Order itself had flourished in the years during his ongoing meditations. The thought sprang him suddenly, however, that his own knowledge and experience would greatly benefit the Kushiban, especially considering their like stature and size. Clearing his throat as Zion finished his proposal, Gunter presented one of his own.
"Offer my own services, I do, in the training of this student." He said, nodding slightly towards the Kushiban, Asani. "Too long away from the intricacies of the Order, I have spent. A great boon to take a padawan of my own, it would be. Particularly the Ataru form and the clarity of the mind, a necessity to such small size, these are."

Asani listens to Zion as he explains that the sort of training she would receive here spans every aspect of the force. She takes a moment to think about that, but ultimately decides that it could very well be an advantage for Jedi, even one who stays on the path of the light side.
"I know the force is vast, and varied, but simple knowledge is not good or evil in itself, it is how you use that knowledge in your actions that can stray toward one or the other."
She states with a simple nod, hoping that that adequately answers the question of how she feels about it. She then turns to the Tridactyl as he speaks to her, recognizing his appearance from tales she once heard from her family about Master Ikrit, who was once a padawan to Master Yoda. She nods to him and her fur shifts toward a yellow color as she is happy about the idea of being trained by him, figuring that being trained by one of similar size would be very beneficial in many ways, and could sense that he was very old and wise in the force. Her answer is an easy one.
"I would like that, yes. I am practiced in Ataru, but I am sure there is still very much you can teach me in that as well as the force as a whole."

Gunter tilted his chin towards Asani in acceptance, watching the Kushiban as her soft fur rippled and shifted in color. His experience with former Jedi such as Master Ikrit, also a Kushiban, and others of Asani's species told him she was pleased with the offer. "Take you as my padawan, I will." He looked up at Master Zion, adding. "However, seeing as an attending here, I am only, and the reigning Master of this establishment, he is, final word from Master Zion, I must have."

Alykka enters the quarters marked as Zion Morviael's, and seeing as there's quite a crowd building, debates between just waiting or announcing her presence. Not being a stereotypical Jedi, the girl opts for the latter, and clears her throat softly, before waving cheerily at everyone, including the cute bunny and the wrinkled green muppet, "Howdy. Ah got a visitor lookin' fer the big hats 'round 'ere. Dat means y'all, Ah guess."
She chews on her lower lip uncertainly at first, then quickly turns to admit Atton Kaelan, gesturing to him, "Allow me t'present Atton Kaelan."

Atton had kept silent through most of the tour, making mental notes of important locations, though the whole layout of the temple seemed a bit complex. He was confident that he could figure it all out in time, though the constant appearances of the multiple red-eyed girl everywhere, sometimes more than one at a time, was pretty weird. That might take some more time to get used to...
There seemed to be quite a crowd here already as they entered the office of one Zion Morviael, and Atton was guessing that he was the head administrator around here, or something like that. He gave a slight bow, though he really wasn't all that great with formalities."Please to meet you all."

Zion nodded to Asani as she seemed open minded and accepting enough of the teaching style of the Temple. He was just about to welcome her on as a student when Gunter presented her with his own proposal of taking her on himself, at which point she accepted his offer. He paused a moment in thought as he considered the proposal and the situation that now faced him, a man he had never met and who was here as a visiting Jedi, was about to take on a padawan at a Temple that was now his responsibility.
They both presented valued arguments as to why it would be a better situation for Asani's training than if he was to take her on himself, but was he really willing to take such a chance with someone he had never met before, with whom he had spent only a couple of hours with. He had a feeling that Asani would be a valuable student and leaving her training waiting to long would only be a hindrance, so he needed to find a middle ground with which to stand until he was sure he could trust this man, without disadvantaging Asani's training
=Zion Morviael=
I welcome you as a student of the Honoghr Temple. However for the time being I can only in good conscience, consent to a temporary teaching situation between the pair of you. For now Amber will show you to your room, please forgive the quite overcrowded quarters, as we have a couple extra visitors from Yavin at this time.
He nodded to Asani and Amber, the discussion over for the time being as he had found the middle ground that meant Asani's training could be ongoing, and it gave him time to measure Gunter up. He then shifted his gaze to Alykka and Atton as they both entered the office, with the former introducing the latter. He gave a short bow back to Atton, before looking the new arrival over as he straightened up
=Zion Morviael=
Good day Atton Kaelen. I am Master Zion Morviael, It is a pleasure to welcome you to the Honoghr Temple. So what brings you here?

Amber nodded in compliance as Zion asked her to show Asani to her room. She then motioned for the Kushiban to follow her as she lead the way back down through the Temple to the Living QuartersIf she was honest, she was a little glad to get out of the room, for although it was quite large, it was starting to get a little busy with a lot of people she had never met. However she had a feeling the Temple would be like this quite regularly

Gunter nodded, "Much appreciated, is this judgement from Master Zion." He affirmed, tapping a clawed finger against the wrist of his other hand. "Although I am eager to begin work, I have only recently returned from lengthy meditations," Gunter clarified for the young Kushiban before she left with Amber. He politely awaited for Zion to conclude his administrative duties with the other new arrival, a brown-haired human with a weathered look about him. New to hardship, this one is not, Gunter thought silently.

Atton shrugged, having not really given much thought to his role with the Jedi here on Honoghr. His usual approach to such things was to just wing it and let things take care of themselves, but he was always open to suggestions. If Zion needed him in particular role, he would fill it to the best of his ability."Just here to help out, however I can, I guess. I've got skills, so I'm sure there's something I can do around here."

Zion nodded as Atton said he was happy to help out anyway he could, perhaps slightly foolish words to use at the Honoghr Temple, especially considering the amount of work that needed to be done. He went over to his desk and grabbed a datapad and tossed it towards Atton, on the datapad was a list of several groups of students that could do with some training
=Zion Morviael=
We have a great deal of excess students at the moment, perhaps you would be willing to take a couple of the groups and teach them some of your... skills. I am sure I can trust you with that for the time being...

Atton skimmed over the lists, surprised at the amount of work that he would likely be doing. That was all right with him though, as at least he would be contributing some meaningful work for the Order, something he felt he hadn't done in far too long. As soon as he got settled in, which wouldn't take long as he hadn't brought very much stuff with him, he could get started.
He nodded and stowed the datapad in his pocket."Yeah I can handle this for now. When do I start?"
