Hanna City, Chandrila 1700 Hours Local
Jonas Valrin had been on Chandrila for several months. The excitement of his election had faded. He spun the expensive red leather chair away from his desk and looked out of the beautiful city he now called home. The view from his office was stunning, it looked out of the Hanna City and the Silver Sea beyond. Jonas had never wanted for anything, but he had never been so content before in his life. He finally felt like he was where he belonged.
The only piece out of place was the unfinished letter had penned and thrown away a hundred times. He glanced at the simple piece of paper as it sat out on darkly stained wood desk.
"How do you talk to the brother who you haven't spoken to in almost twenty years" was the thought that so often ran through his head. What could he say? His brother had been sent with the Jedi when they were both very young. He had not heard from his older brother since. Jonas just couldn't understand why he would shun his family.
He had planned on sending the letter to the Jedi, in hopes it would find its way to him. But day after day it sat on his desk. Perhaps Jonas was afraid that his brother wouldn't care. Perhaps Jonas was afraid of what he find. He knew next to nothing about his brother, Sylas Valrin.
He let out a heavy sigh, looking at the crumpled piece of paper one last time before resolving to, once again, finish it in the morning.
He looked out over the Silver Sea, just as the sun was beginning to dip out of the sky. The water sparkled and shimmered as the sky turned a brilliant orange. His mind wondered for a brief second until the soft beep of the intercom snapped him back to reality. "Senator Valrin, Someone is here to see you." his assistant said pausing for second before finishing "Someone from the Jedi Order."
Jonas quickly turned around, his eyes locking on the intercom for a long second. "Senator Valrin?" the young female voice asked. Jonas moved to intercom "Yes, well please send him in." he said calmly, masking the myriad of thoughts running through his head. He couldn't believe his brother had finally come to see him. There was no other reason for a Jedi to visit him. He moved to the front of his desk.
He straightened dark green vest as he waited.
