Unknown mountain range, Fiana, three weeks after the events of The Frozen Doors
The news of the Jedi on Fiani reached the village by word of mouth. Rena's extended family came for a visit a few weeks ago bearing stories of the Jedi seen in Teakroof. According to them, Jedi representatives had met with a council representing multiple Fianan settlements, and an agreement was made that the Jedi could retake an old temple they had somewhere deep in the mountains. The temple would apparently not serve as a base of military operations for the Jedi but as a place of learning and knowledge.
This news directly resulted in quite a long journey with Rena's fathers which was now quickly coming to an end. Both of the men were very accustomed to long periods of time out "on the road" per se, having worked as scouts, trackers, and literal pathfinders for most of their adult lives. Being their daughter, Rena was certainly more accustomed to it than others, but they had grown weary and tired of travel long before their fathers even began to feel the slightest twinges of fatigue. The group had stopped to rest at every village, hamlet, or town they'd passed along the way, and while Rena's fathers bought supplies and gathered information, they caught up on some well-needed rest.
Since Rena's cousins didn't know the exact location of the temple, just the mountain range, Rena's fathers, Reiji and Enmei, had to work off rumors and information given to them by those they spoke to in the towns they passed through. Their hard work paid off though, and they were speeding steadily through a mountain path that would supposedly lead them straight to the temple. Rena had nodded off yet again, slumped on the speeder behind Reiji, arms around his waist, seemingly unbothered by the icy winds or the powdering of snow that struck their exposed cheek whenever a snowbank was flown over. Enmei, on his own speeder, was driving several meters ahead. So when the temple finally came into view, he was the first to spot it.
His following shout to his husband woke Rena up, so when the three of them finally slowly approached the temple, they were fully awake. Most of their body was concealed by the large poncho that swallowed them up down to the legs, which were uncovered other than warm, woolen wraps around the heel of their digitigrade limbs. They wore woolen gloves, and a thick woolen scarf was wrapped loosely around their head and neck. Two grey, vulpine ears perked up attentively from the top of their head, and a bushy grey tail swept back and forth from under the poncho, brushing against the snow underfoot.
And with that, Rena, led on by their fathers, began trudging through the snow up toward the temple. There were people about, working on whatever repairs or what-else the temple may need, who would have certainly already spotted them on their way up.
