RE: The Imperial and the Princess [Ava, Nova, Astra, and Tesara] (Closed)
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
Ava nodded her head understanding " well it is good to always to resolve a conflict frist with words before fighting. Though on rare occasions its just best to do nothing, sometimes words nor using your hands will get you anywhere. " thinking about Reine. " however perhaps I just haven't figured out the right words. Were its similar to walking in a mine field one false step and you could get hurt. " thinking out loud for an moment. Than shook her head.
" oh I no, I myself never meet the queen. Which was unfortunate cause I always wanted to. I know durro, Tesara, and nova meet her though am not completely sure about Kaleb. " she softly spoke " I think out of everyone I just method durro meet with the queen the most. "
Nova — 06/15/2021
"Correct. Durro has met her the most. Judging by how she had the foresight to give him that book, I think he saw that if she went to the Cathedral then she would of died. Which would explain why he was there and why she trusted him so much." Nova sighed. "I think she also decided to make the long journey to Lanus to see him. All I know is once we heard she was under house arrest for treason, I figured it was Durro's fault since he has been wanted." she gave a hum.
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
Astra's ears parked up. "She what?! " Astra said without much thought. She was angry, sad, and confused all at once. She took several deep breaths. Control she needed to keep control over herself and her emotions.
" im sorry it appears I will need to meet with Durro at some point. He is wanted" astra asked. Clear she was confused.
Nova — 06/15/2021
"I thought so. Yes apparently this planet thinks Durro is a terrorist, and we are his crew." Giving a shake of her head and a big sigh. "We have done nothing terroristic at all. Just in the wrong place at the wrong time. I went sightseeing and ended up being picked up and tortured all because I was seen interacting with someone." She then moved to the window. "Truly this planet is in disarray because they don't figure out the facts and just go off what the news tells them instead of asking the person."
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
Ava raised a brow and sighed softly. As she thought about what to do. " love could you go get me something to drink please? I dont mind what you bring am just thirsty. " she assured her. As she waited for nova to leave the room.
" my apologies, Astra. I dont belive your mother and durro had anything stronger than a friendship. She probably needed someone outside her circles she could trust to safe gaurd her book. Someone she knew that wouldnt simply turn it over to the dooku family. " she assured her. " as for the treason part it was a cover since you said the dooku family has her. They probably came up with the cover cause what they are doing isn't legal. However if they play thire story just right they can conceal the truth about thire wrongful acts. " she was now talking a military stand point. " the more fluff in the story the stronger people will belive it unfortunately. I know how hard hearing this must be for you. Unfortunately when whomever started this decided to rope durro into it since she was seen with him the most. Probably a move to get him captured and questioned since they were seeking your fathes lightsaber "
Pausing for an moment to gather her thoughts " as what nova said about durro being a terrorist. It all started with an accident we control and sence that accident. Durro, nova and Tesara has been experiencing an string of unfortunate events. " choosing her words wisely. Since in the beginning the a few members hadn't exactly innocent. "
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
Astra shook her head." The Jedi hunters have a bad habit of that. Sol was not like that though his job was to protect me." Astra said.
" im very sorry you went through that" astra said gently.
" yes it is hard and no I don't understand. It's funny I half want to stack Durro the other half of me says not to. For now I will waght and speak to him then decided where to go" Astra said
Nova — 06/15/2021
Knowing Ava would ask, she walked to the door and gave a nod to Astra and left the room for a little while. She brought Ava a drink but didn't stick around.
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
" I think that's a wise decision, to let him explain himself and than make a sound decision from there. Why dont you take this time to rest. I'll watch over roza for you. I promise she will be safe. " she assured her.
( an few hour time skip and than ava will be suggesting an outting to Astra. If you guys are alright with that. )
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
Astra nodded " Do not leave this room with her, I trust you but I prefer a Jedi be around to protect her." She said. Astra herself used to be with Jedi it was clear she was used to their presents. She was far more inclined to trust them. Astra kissed the top of Roza's head before handing her off to Ava. She lay down and within minutes was out cold.
( OOC fine by me)
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
Ava noticed that nova left after setting down her drink. She looked at the glass and sighed. Using beverages to send Nova off simply because Nova should be more careful about what she says. She felt like they were on a slippery slope. Wondering what she could to to save them she thought they gained some ground at thire date. However removing nova would be a foolish thing to do. Perhaps it be better if they were just friends. Frowning more feeling her emotions of sadness. When her comlink went off she calm herself and answered it. She was careful how she held Rosa as she talked over the comlink keeping her voice low. Once she was done with the conversation. She let Astra slept til it was time to wake her up. She gave them enough time to stop somewhere to pick up some clothing for Astra. Hoping her new friend would come with her specially when she told her she was going ask Tesara to come along. As she gently woke her up.
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
Astra blinked " What's going, Roza?" She said quietly with half alarm. As she looked for the child almost panicked for a moment. So in the half-awake state had forgotten Ava was watching the baby.
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
Ava without any hesitation handed Roza over when Astra asked for her. Waiting a few minutes for Astra to fully wake up " hey its okay everything is fine, I was wondering if you and Roza would like coming to lunch with me? I would love to show you how am going be using sun co to bring peace. I am also going be ask Tesara to come with us. We can disguise you and I can introduce you as my friend." As ava informed her on her plan.
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
Astra calmed down quickly. She rubbed her eyes and thought for a moment. " that sounds like fun" she said agreeing to come.
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
Ava smiled hearing her answer " I am glad to hear that. I'll shall give you some time to wake up while I go and ask Tesara. " as she walked to the door opening it and walked out of the bedroom. As she went to look for Tesara.
Tesara Anerin — 06/15/2021
Tesara is awake, foraging for some food in the kitchen. There isn't much, but she found some oatmeal and is eating it when Ava approaches. "Hi, Ava. How is Astra? And the baby?"
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
Ava looked a little excited " great, me and Astra seems to be getting along very well. She even let me hold Roza. " giving a warm smile. " she has rested and was feed thanks to Nova. " I was wondering if you could come with us for lunch. I want you to see what my plans for sun co are. I can assure you, you won't be disappointed. Am planning on disguising Astra as my best friend. Using the dooku name should be find but maybe a different first name. I'll let her decide that since she's agreed to come. "
Tesara Anerin — 06/15/2021
Tesara looks thoughtful. "Are you sure using the Dooku name is wise? It's such a huge family with well known people. Can't you use Kenobi as a last name? Isn't that her married name?" Tesara asks.
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
" I know more about the Dooku family than I do Kenobi unforchiinitly. Are you feeling better Tesaara?" She asked. As she walked in the the kitchen a currently awake and happy Roza cradled in her arms. She was in looking for ava.
" thank you for watching her Ava," she said happily. Then cast a glance around wanting to know where Reine was at. The last thing she wanted was another fight with that girl. " Tesara have you learned about the legacy or legendary crystals yet? Im afraid I have forgotten that lesson and there's no walking into the Sereno academy to finding the information " She said having distracted herself and gone off-topic.
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
Ava thought for an moment over it " actually I think Kenobi would work better than Dooku. Tesara has a point there, thank you for your suggestion Tesara. " thinking Kenobi would actually work better for Astra. " that just leaves the frist name. "
As she paused so Tesara could answer Astras question seeing that she had joined them in the kitchen. As she nodded her head " it was no problem really Astra really. " aslo keeping an eye out as well for Reine.
Tesara Anerin — 06/15/2021
Tesara smiles at Astra. "I'm glad to see you are looking well, Lady Astra." She says, kind of uncertain how to address the future Queen and Princess of Baklid. "As for the Legacy Kyber Crystals, I only know what Durro told me about them here. They are more prevalent here than where we came from. Umm...did anyone here tell you where that was?
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
Astra posed a moment. She was so not used to having a title. She looked almost uncomfortable for a moment. " please don't call me that I know im a princess but im no different from you. So just my name Astra is perfect." She said with a smile.
A Glare crossed her face Breffley at the mention of Durro. That was quickly replaced with a smile as she remainders herself that she did not have the full story. " No where are you from," she asked.
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
Ava listened making a mental note. Not wanting to make the same mistake accidentally. Noticing the glaring look when Tesara mentioned Durro. She sighed softly thinking how to recover durro more. Though she didn't have that much information. So she couldn't really fix this one. Though relaxed when she saw the glare disappear.
Tesara Anerin — 06/15/2021
"Astra, then." Tesara smiled, setting down her spoon. "You may want to sit for this one. And I wouldn't blame you if you didn't believe me when I'm done, but I swear I am going to tell you the truth." She pulled out a chair for Astra and sat back down. "Master Durro and I are actually from another timeline. We were on Ava's ship just leaving a planet that was being blown up, and our ship got pulled into some kind of wormhole that set us outside our own timeline and into this one. We've been here ever since. A little over a year, actually. One of the reasons I said that we don't use legacy Kyber crystals is because where I come from, I don't think there is such a thing. If it is, it would be rare, whereas here it's very common. But..." She paused, sighed and shook her head. "I don't think we will ever return to our own timeline. Here we are, and here is where we have made choices to become involved. I want to stay here on Baklid and do what I can to stop the madness brought on by greed. I want to help you bring peace to Baklid; to help you carry on what your mother was trying to do. While I didn't have a gathering like you, and I will likely never achieve Knight status here because I don't agree with much of what the Jedi here stand for and do, I will continue on as a padawan without a master if Durro decides to leave. At this time I'm not sure what he will decide to do, but I have made my choice in you." She exhaled. It had been a lot to say.
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
Astra sat down concern washing over her face the story been incredible. " are you sure your ok" she asked and put the back on her hand agent Tesara's forhead. She wondered if Tesara had a fever. As she did not and was not visibly I'll she had to assume that Tesara was telling the truth. She removed her hand from Tesara's head. " you do appear to be sick so I will believe you are telling the truth" she said.
" as for the Legacy Kybers they are incredibly rare I believe there are only 32 to include mine once I find out which crystal it is. I don't remember much about them because they are not relevant to every Jedi sol and I was both happy to not have that responsibility." She said shaking her head.
As for your static as a Jedi, there are many paths to follow you don't have to go to one of the academy's as I did there are many ways to follow the light. Things are not always what they appear to be who knows many you will be the one to bring lasting change in the Jedi order here there way are inherently flawed?" Astra said with a smile.
Tesara Anerin — 06/15/2021
Tesara smiled back at her. "No, not sick. Yes, telling the truth. And as for the Kyber crystal, have you found which one of the three it is? I think it will reveal itself to you and no one else, save your mother of course. As for becoming a Jedi Knight, I believe that eventually I would have arrived at that destination, but the Jedi here...." She trails off, frowning. "They are hunters of darksiders but it feels as if they have somehow followed a path that led them away from the Light, despite their intentions to preserve it." She shrugs. "I can only control myself and do what I think is right."
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
Astra smiled and shook her head. " I did not even get the chance to look for it. I finger we will be here for a few days so there will be plenty of time." She said. She was still not sure she wanted to be responsible for the crystal.
" as for the Jedi their intentions are good they just get caught in politics way too much, I had to fight to even get a seat on the gathering and that was only after I was denied three times. As for the hunters they see the world in black and white there not bad people they just are not trained to work in shades of Gray. They are the best worries. And if never had the course to doubt them. But I may have been a bit spoiled. After the bounty hunter killed my friend Roza I always had a jedi Hunter to protect me when we left the Academy. " she said.
" don't give up on them they're not that far gone they just need a nudge in the right direction" Astra said. She still had hope for the Jedi order though she questioned it and saw its flaws.
Tesara Anerin — 06/15/2021
Tesara nods. "They think I am a terrorist and they don't even know me. They just believe what they are told and act upon it." She sighs. "Yet we are all guilty of the same." She looked at Astra and saw the hesitation on her face about the crystal. "Do you want to find it?" She asked quietly. "You can say no. A kyber crystal doesn't dictate one's future."
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
" I know you are not a Terrorist, I don't know about Durro, I'll want to hear his story before a make a decision as to what I want to believe. But as for the rest of the order, there trains like soldiers to follow orders. They have no way of knowing your not a Terrorist" she said gently. She saw and understand Tesara's point of view but she also knows what she was raised under and with. She hoped she could help Tesara understand them.
" I don't know its a huge responsibility and im afraid I will fail" she said quietly. She made a mental note that she could not hide her feelings from Tesara.
Tesara Anerin — 06/15/2021
“That is absolutely fair. You will get to meet Durro soon.” She says. “And as for failing, you won’t. Because you won’t be alone.”
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
Ava listened a little surprised Tesara let the cat out of the bag. She was going wait til Astra had settle into the group a little more. However Astra seemed to take it well. She wasn't calling Tesara as crazy person or anything drastic. She breath out a sigh of relief. " yes what Tesara is true, we are indeed from another universe. " as she than remained quiet as Tesara and Astra spoke to each other. She didnt have any input on the crystal other than durros advice he often said to Tesara. To meditate and open yourself to the force, however she was sure Tesara could cover this better than she could. Keeping quiet as they talked as well as paying attention to the time.
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
" I hope not" she said.
Tesara Anerin — 06/15/2021
Tesara had caught Ava’s surprise that she had revealed the truth so quickly and plainly, but it was unfair to Astra to hide anything from her at this point. She had just put her life in the life of her baby and Tesara‘s keeping. The time for secrets with each other was over.
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
" everyone at some point of time fails, when you first learn how to walk. The best thing you can do is keep trying til you figure it out. I know to try my hardest not to fail but when I do, I push myself to keep going so I can come back stronger. Aslo you do have help from Tesara and Durro if you need it along way. " she assured her.
Astra Korraay — 06/15/2021
"That's true But I also have you and Nova. Don't we have a meeting to get to" Astra asked.
Tesara Anerin — 06/15/2021
“Yes, we do.” She smiled. “Let’s go.”
Ava Forma — 06/15/2021
Ava as lead them out of the kitchen and though the living room she give a smile and wave to Reine as she bid Reine good bye as well as Kaleb informing them they were heading out of a lunch with sun co as they left the house and got a transport a few houses down. Making a stop for clothes for Astra before heading off to where the lunch was being held at.
