Zeri had always heard that Theed was a beautiful city but no description or picture in a book came close to doing the place justice. Granted, the young padawan wasn't the most well travelled person, but Zeri would put dollars to doughnuts that there were very few other places that could possibly hold a candle Theed, or hell, Naboo in general.
Of course, she hadn't just come to admire the architecture or take in the museums. Much to the contrary, Zeri was in Theed for something much more spirited and vastly more fun - the galactically renown Nabooian Wine Mixer. A huge event where all of the rich elites brought their yachts to sail on the massive lakes just outside the city, mostly to show them off and also a little to actually win a race.
Zeri herself wasn't particularly interested in the yachts, she was here for the wine and food, and the live music plus the after party. At the current moment, Zeri was headed down one of the piers that jutted out into the lake. Normally the pier was just a long boardwalk where people could get some views of the lake and maybe cast a fishing line here and there, but now it was lined entirely with food stalls, some carnival games and most importantly: Booze carts.
The day was absolutely beautiful, the sunshine beating down just warm enough to keep the cool breeze from the lake from sending shivers down your spine. Zeri was wearing one of her favorite swimsuits, flipflops flip-flopping as she walked. Evetnually, she picked one of the less crowded booze carts to nab a glass of wine. Something rose colored and bubbly, she had no idea. It smelled alright and tasted better, and that's all that really mattered to her anyway.
Looking around, Zeri couldn't help but crack a small smile as she watched all of the people milling about, wondering if she would stumble into anyone she knew. Or, even more fun, make some new friends.
