It was still morning when Aodán's shuttle had touched down planet side on Naboo in the capital city's spaceport. The young man had been reviewing all throughout his flight just where he should go after touching down so as to not get swept up in the busy streets of the capital. His data pad was still in hand when Aodán disembarked from the shuttle, going over the plan one more time when the sound of the Virdugo Plunge drew his attention upward. Aodán had come from a very tropical world and though there were a great many natural wonders most of those were deep within the jungles. Sights like the plunge or indeed the very cliff side to which Theed rested on and the port was at the base of were sights he had never had the pleasure of witnessing himself. The young man was honestly swept up in the awe inspiring natural beauty that the Naboo had done so much to preserve and cultivate. To say he was moved was almost an understatement for how much the natural wonder of even this small portion of the planet affected him. "If I ever meet up with Forim again I am going to have to tell him he was right." The young man thought to himself as a final thought before his attentions shifted away from the falls. His eyes once more settled on the data pad to check his path once more. "Okay so I am to meet Master Xylona at the Royal Library." The young padawan spoke to himself after confirming the information on his data pad one last time. Filling his lungs the young man let out a sigh before moving on. Aodán was anxious, this much was true as this would be his first real step on the path to becoming a Jedi in more than just name. A prospect that the young man had been excited for from the day he met the knight Koyi Rha back on Cularin. He couldn't help but recall the Twi'lek Jedi as he made his way towards the cliff face and the tunnels within which would take him to the city proper. After all much like that fateful encounter this one might just manage to be the moment that eclipses it. Yes he had heard that Master Xylona was picky when it came to those she took on. But he also heard of her skill and knowledge of the force itself, focusing on the greater mysteries as he was hoping to do through time and training. As such he resolved himself to put his best foot forward and try to make a good impression with the Jedi Knight. Yes he was nervous, anxious even, but these were simply natural. Aodán had learned through his political schooling and to a lesser extent from the Tarasin that these feeling did not need to be a hindrance. He could use them instead of letting them use him. Yet as he took his first step into the tunnel leading city side with a couple other travelers from other shuttles he found himself wishing it was easier done than thought.
Theed itself was a bustling city full of live, beauty, and stunning architecture that could make anyone with a heart and eyes fall in love with it at first glance. Or so Aodán thought as he made his way out of the tunnels by the Royal palace. Which was a perfectly reasonable thought to have if the first sight you see after leaving tunnels inside a cliff is in fact the palace itself and the busy populace moving to and fro. The padawan would make a mental note that he should return here some day when not on something so official. Who knew, since it seemed that Master Xylona was here maybe she was partial to the city and the planet itself? If that was the case it might just be a regular place to visit in his future. Assuming of course that Aodán was actually able to manage becoming the Knight's padawan learner in the first place. "Alright..." The padawan began as he pulled the data pad out once more, "now if I am here, the Royal Library must be this way..." His voice was calm yet distant as he checked one more time to be positive. Assured in his direction Aodán joined in the crowds of those wandering the streets. Making relatively short time until he came upon the steps of the library proper. It was here he paused, his hazel colored eyes glancing up along the building while his nerves once again tried to impede him. Yet he had come so far from his home and his future was in front of him so close it was within his grasp. There was no way he could stop now. So with a final deep breath Aodán redied himself for whatever might come and ascended the steps into the library proper, and to the waiting knight within.
