*The armored visitor—Dressellian, Aerandir wagered—at least seemed polite enough, but if his profession was what he thought it was, then that would come as no surprise. And there was the confirmation: He, "Panno Grai'Tal," was an Imperial Knight. He sure was quite a ways from the Deep Core. It was slightly reassuring; the Imperial Knights were not historically known for feuding with Jedi. Perhaps philosophically.
Bix also visibly relaxed a little, though his arms remained folded. The Knight appeared to be here of his own will, or so he said; Aerandir believed "feeling a pull from the Force" was a legitimate reason, he just wasn't yet sure if he should believe it really was the Knight's true reason. Aerandir was still willing to grant him limited hospitality for now, though the Knight's last words suddenly made his thoughts clear. Yes... the Mandalorian threat. If it remained a serious one... well, all practitioners of the Force were targets. This was no time for suspicion toward a fairly benevolent sect.*
Very well. We can show you to the mess hall, and perhaps talk more. I will hopefully be able to grant you everything you seek while you're here. Please follow me.
*Aerandir turned, exchanging a look with Bix, noting the subtle changes in expression that meant he was questioning of Aerandir's sudden change in demeanor. Aerandir only gave him a barely-perceptible nod, acknowledging his concerns and promising to address them later. But direct questioning and just standing around in a crowded hangar was not the method of divining the Knight's true intentions, nor was it hospitable. That, and Aerandir knew that right now they had far greater worries than a single Imperial Knight visiting a Jedi establishment.*

However this mission turns out, I think perhaps I'd like to spend some more time on Felucia, exploring, maybe hunting, seeing what mysteries the jungle might hold. But, first things first. We make our descent into the Jedi Base's hangar, and I pay the pilot, then disembark. After retrieving my luggage from the cargo hold, I look around in search of someone official.

I am greeted by an Zabrak in padawan robes, who looks to be a few years younger than me.
"Good evening, stranger!" she says brightly. "I'm Giannah. Welcome to the base. What brings you to Felucia?"
"Hello, Giannah," I reply, returning her smile. I don't sense anyone else nearby, but, just to be safe, I decide not to go into much detail about my mission. "I'm here to do some research out in the jungles near this base," I tell Giannah. "I hoped I could stay here while I work."
"You certainly can. We have extra rooms in the dormitories reserved for visiting Jedi." She turns toward the exit. "This way."
I gather my things and follow her into the base.

Terra entered the hangar and immediately spotted the waiting shuttle that would take her back to Corellia. Sighing, she squeezed Morgan's hand and started walking towards it, stopping when they had gotten close. She knelt down and pulled Morgan into a very tight hug."I'm gonna miss you Morgan..."

*Morgan squeezed Terra's hand tightly as they left her dorm, and her heart grew heavier with each step closer to the hangar. She was frowning, dreading the departure, trying hard not to cry or otherwise show any further sadness. As they entered the warm, humid area, she saw the shuttle that would take her away, causing her to freeze in place and make an odd noise that was like a mixture between a whimper and a grunt. She only moved when she felt the squeeze on her hand as they moved toward it, then stopped again when Terra knelt down to hug her. Morgan wrapped her own arms around her, hugging her tightly.*
I'm gonna miss you too, Terra...
*A tear fell from each eye, but Morgan refused to cry any further. She was sad, of course, but she wasn't going to let it overtake her. She sniffled and squeezed Terra, then wiped her eyes with the back of her arm before releasing her, wearing as big a grin as she could muster.*
But it's okay, we're gonna see each other again soon!
*She held her smile for a moment longer before it faltered, just a little, and she hugged Terra again.*
I love you Terra... You're like a big sister...
*She really was, and while Morgan never really had a big sister or thought about what it would be like in the past, Terra had provided that without either of them realizing it. And it had been really fun, having someone to look up to. ... despite the fact that it had been Morgan doing most of the teaching. But still, Terra was a bit of a guide in other ways, and Morgan was going to miss that.*

Terra smiled back at Morgan, not sure if she'd see the girl as soon as she would like, but it would happen one way or another. She was sure of it."We will. I promise!"She hugged Morgan again, a bit misty eyed but managing to keep her tears back. Now wasn't the time to be crying, sad as it was to be leaving here.
It felt strange to be called a big sister, but also kind of nice at the same time. Terra was an only child so no one had ever called her that before, but that was the way she felt about Morgan so it felt right.
She slowly pulled away, her hands on Morgan's shoulders."I love you too, Morgan."She giggled."I've always wanted to be a big sister."She stood up slowly, readjusting her bag on her shoulders."Well...bye Morgan. We'll see each other again soon. I promise."
She leaned down and kissed Morgan on the cheek, then turned and slowly walked to the shuttle and started up the ramp, stopping for a moment to turn around and wave to Morgan one last time before disappearing into the shuttle as the ramp was raised. The shuttle's engines hummed to life and soon the craft lifted off and flew out of the hangar, disappearing into the sky.

*Morgan managed a laugh when Terra laughed and declared that she'd always wanted to be a big sister, but then she stood up and said her goodbye, along with a promise that they'd see each other again soon and a kiss on the cheek. Morgan wanted to say something as well, but her mouth only opened silently for a moment before closing it and nodding with a smile.*
I know. Bye Terra!
*She then watched as Terra boarded the ship, and waved when she waved. Then she was out of sight, and before long the ship was on its way out of the hangar. Morgan hesitated, then ran after it until she too was outside. Then she stood and stared up at the sky, watching the ship until it was merely a speck, then nothing at all. Morgan hadn't realized just how close she'd gotten to Terra, for she could feel her going further and further away... then disappearing from her senses entirely.
It actually stung.
Fresh moisture filled her eyes, but she quickly wiped it away. It was okay, she told herself, they'd see each other again soon. Why was it always so difficult dealing with separation? Her father left the planet lots of times and she never felt sad then! And leaving Felucia was difficult as well, though that was mostly due to the adjustment afterward... She had to work on this somehow.
For now, she returned to the base; she'd find new ways to spend her time like she always did. But she'd still miss Terra...*

Serena wasn't sure what to expect when the shuttle landed. Her father had told her that Felucia was a jungle, but different from Haruun Kal, so at least there would be at least some familiarity. She was a little sad that her mother and father wouldn't be here with her, at least not now. But they said they would be there soon, once they had finished with whatever it was they were doing. Something about setting some affairs in order or some other adult stuff.
With her bag over her shoulder and datapad in her hand, she stepped off the ramp. She felt proud to be doing this by herself, despite the sadness at her parents not being with her. She was to speak with whoever greeted her upon landing and make sure the datapad she carried was given to the head of the enclave. Trying to give an air of confidence, she stepped off the shuttle, ready for whatever lay ahead.

*Aerandir was on his way to the hangar, surprised to pass Morgan in the hall. He smiled and greeted her, though noted her slight sense of sadness, along with vague signs that she had been crying. Of course; Terra had just left today, and after all the time the two of them had spent together, Morgan would understandably be a little sad. Given the circumstances, though, Morgan still seemed to be in good spirits, and Aerandir was proud of her for that.
Morgan tagging along, he continued to the hangar, already having had contact with control alerting him to its arrival. The occupant was to be a young girl from Haruun Kal, whose parents had been teaching her about the Force but had decided to send her here to help in her training; they would be along later, but they sent their daughter in advance. A good step; separation from guardians was a good way to learn experience in other ways. For some reason, Aerandir was expecting a Korun child, but when he reached the shuttle, he found that the girl was not Korunnai, and actually looked a little taller than the average eight-year-old. Well, if she and Morgan made friends, that would be pretty ironic.
Putting on a smile an a kid-friendly demeanor, Aerandir gave a polite bow to the girl.*
Hello there, you must be Serena. I'm Aerandir Calmcacil, and this is my daughter Morgan. Welcome to Felucia.

*Morgan was similarly a bit surprised to run into her father on his way to the hangar, who was apparently heading there to meet someone who was coming to Felucia. A girl her age, for that matter. Morgan thought about it, then decided to tag along with her father; she might be able to make a new friend, for one, and she didn't have a ton of friends that were her age. And she wasn't trying to fill the hole Terra had just left, she just genuinely wanted to make a new friend.
So she followed her father to the hangar, letting him lead to the shuttle he was expecting. But when she saw the girl, she was a little surprised; Morgan knew she was shorter than most girls her age, but this girl seemed even taller, for supposedly being the same age. Morgan was a little surprised, but when her father bowed and introduced them, Morgan also bowed and wore a polite smile. Come to think of it, she wondered what the girl—whose name appeared to be Serena—thought of Morgan's outfit; it wasn't the typical outfit one would expect from a child in a Jedi establishment. Not that it was a bad thing, Morgan just relished these reactions.*

Serena smiled and bowed to Aerandir, remembering that she needed to be polite when meeting someone. Her father had always told her that first impressions were important after all."It's nice to meet you, Master Calmcacil."She turned to his daughter Morgan, still smiling."Nice to meet you too, Morgan!"She noticed the dress that Morgan was wearing, and it didn't look like anything she had seen before back home. Maybe that's how they dressed here? Regardless, it was very pretty, and most of all, she was glad to have someone close to her own age around.
Remembering about the datapad, she looked back to Aerandir and handed it to him. It was about how far she had gotten in her training and also contained a message from her father that he would be coming to Felucia within the month. Or something like that. She hadn't actually read the message."Here. Daddy said I needed to give that to you!"

*The girl was polite, returning the smile and bow and addressing Aerandir as "Master Calmcacil." As usual he'd have to correct that, but first, Serena was handing him a datapad, one her father had said to give to him. He accepted it and scanned it, finding within pertinent details about Serena's training thus far, as well as a note that the father would be arriving within the month. That was very helpful, and Aerandir nodded to himself before returning his focus to the child.*
Thank you. Well, no use standing around here, I can show you around quickly, particularly the dorms and the dining hall, if you're hungry. Do you think your parents will want to share quarters with you, or would you rather join the other students in the dormitories?
*He figured he'd at least give the girl a choice, though was certain her parents would possibly decide something otherwise when they arrived. He'd also have to see about getting her acquainted with other children her age so she wouldn't feel lonely, such as Morgan, but Morgan tended to be friendly enough anyway that he wouldn't have had to nudge her.*

Serena wasn't particularly hungry just yet, but it still might be nice to know where everything was. As for her parents, she figured they would have a separate room, just like at home. Unless her big brother also needed a room, but even so, if she didn't have to share a room with him, then that would be best. Serena loved her big brother but he was kind of a slob...
She smiled and adjusted the bag on her shoulder."Um...I'd like my own room, please."Her father likely wouldn't have a problem with that. At least Serena hoped he wouldn't. But they could figure that out when he actually got there.

*Her own room? Well, Aerandir supposed she was a guest rather than a resident, but for now, he would oblige her; if things needed to be worked out, they could wait until her father arrived in order to do so, so he only nodded to her.*
Well, in that case, follow me and I'll show you where you can stay.
*With a smile, he turned and beckoned for Serena and Morgan to follow him, then led her away from the hangar.*

*Morgan smiled at Serena when she said it was nice to meet her, then Morgan only waited quietly, listening as the two talked for a moment before apparently deciding that Serena would have her own quarters for now. That was kind of lucky in a way. When beckoned to follow, no doubt so her father could show Serena to her quarters, Morgan smiled at Serena and began to follow him, wondering when she'd get a chance to talk to the newcomer.*

Johun casually strode through the hangar to the Libero. He boarded it and prepared it to receive, hopefully, his 2 new padawans. They had much learning to do, but Johun knew Ashla would guide all them through this journey together. Johun sat cross-legged on the floor of the commons area of he upper deck, meant for his passengers as the bottom deck was for cargo and currently contained his omnifighter. Johun began to meditate while he waited for his padawans.

Von walked into the hangar his newly acquired robes flowed off him like silk as he walked, they were a dark midnight blue. He had found them in one of the living quarters as he walked by. Covering his head in the cloak he approached Johun, not making eye contact with the Jedi he made his way onto the ship as to say he was ready to leave. As for his dark presence in the force it would remain in hiding until the day of his rebirth. But as of now, his presence would be almost unnoticeable. Weak and unworthy.

Johun had felt Von, enter, but something was different about him. Johun placed this in the back of his mind as his new Padawan walked past him.
Glad to see you came Von. I wasn't fully convinced you would. Nice robes.

*Kulaan jogged into the hangar, she had been waved down by a couple of her friends on the base that had heard she was heading off planet and wanted to say good bye. In that time Von had gone off ahead and managed to arrive at the hangar first. She was glad that he had not gone back for the sword but still had to wonder who she would tell Johun about what had happened. She hitched up her pack and looked around the hangar. She spotted the ship she had seen arriving earlier in the day and sensed both Johun and Von's presences and went up into it. Seeing Johun she smiled a bit uncertainly. Von wasn't too far from him so nothing could be said about what happened."
"Sorry I'm late, unsurprisingly people that heard I was leaving wanted to say good bye." *Her tail curled then uncurled behind her back in its best way that it could to impersonate an eye roll.* "Small bits of information like that seem to spread quickly around here." *She said matter of factually, giving a slight bow.*
*She still wasn't quite sure how or when she would manage to talk to Johun without Von being around. She was sure however that at some point an opportunity would show up. *

Without looking at either Johun or Kulaan, Von voiced out his concerns to leave. He had been on this planet longer than he wanted to be and he was starting to get bored.
Are we going to talk or can we just leave.
