Coruscant's ever-busy atmosphere screamed around the young Jedi Knight as he briskly walked around. Like a kid in a wax museum, his countenance was a mixture of caution and wonder. He was used to being surrounded by plant life or at least stone, not metal and and machinery. Still, the sheer amount of the population comforted Malz enough to where he still enjoyed his stay. It was exactly as he remembered it.
Curious, he approached her, only to be lashed at. As she did so, she revealed a sickly-green skin tone and several bruises to her face. Her nose was red and swollen and her lips were cracked. She looked exhausted, her eyes watery and distant. Concerned for her health, Malz quickly calmed her with his calm, happy demeanor, with a bit of Force persuasion thrown in in case she were delusional. Once she was properly calmed, Malz went to work on giving her an examination. What he saw startled him; inside her was a rare but contagious bacteria. It produced symptoms similar to a common cold, but it somehow confused the immune system in a way that it would almost never be identified as foreign. Thus, it was more of a long-term annoyance than a life-threatening disease. Only powerful antibiotics seemed to work on it, but those were expensive, and Malz doubted this girl had the necessary funds to acquire it.
He smiled and told her everything was going to be alright. Closing his eyes, he used the Force to jump-start her immune system, guiding it to where each bacterium was and allowing it to successfully identify each as an invader. Within 15 minutes, the battle was over. He laid the girl to rest so she could recover and went on his way, leaving a note detailing contact information and a bit of money as well.
It wasn't long before he received a message saying that the same infection had risen up in a friend of hers, pleading with him to help this friend the same way, whatever that 'way' was. Happy to have a chance to go out and explore again, Malz was once again in the planet-city.
Using his acute sense of Force Sight, he eventually made his way to the room where this friend was staying. A knock on the door followed by, "Hello? I'm looking for a sick person! I'm the healer guy!" Not the most professional of introductions, he nevertheless flashed a bright smile and awaited his next opportunity to spread good cheer and charity.

About a week ago, he decided to venture into Coruscant despite the recent raid of the temple. He wasn't much of a city-dweller, but he knew that experience was key in maturity. Plus, it just sounded like fun! As he gazed at all the tall buildings and zooming airspeeders, he couldn't help but think of a few games he could play here; parkour championships, capture the flag, heck, even hide-and-go-seek would be amazing here! As he decided to check out an alleyway to get caught up on his bearings, he had stumbled upon a lone female crouched to the side.Curious, he approached her, only to be lashed at.
