Naboo, one of those planets that had a unique history with both the Sith and the Jedi. It was the first time Elias had been on the planet and he didn't think he would forget it. His arms rested on a railing as he glanced down toward the water, it reflecting in his nearly amber eyes. The waves lapped and collided against each other and it was a representation of how he felt inside. His insides were churning and it resulted in a restless feeling that he couldn't get rid of if he wanted to. Ever since Kessel transpired, Elias had dove into his work for the Order but he also needed to clear his head and just separate himself from everyone. It was an opportunity he wasn't afforded much.
While he was on Naboo, it wasn't entirely to just clear his head. There had been reports that attempts on the princess' had been made, at least a successful kidnapping until one of the Rangers managed to rescue her. Thankfully, she had remained unharmed and was brought back to Naboo but the royal family wouldn't dare risk her safety again. They had contacted the Order and asked for their assistance as Naboo had already had run-ins with the Sith for years and most likely a bad taste in their mouth. Guard duty wasn't exactly the most illustrious thing to happen to him but it was a way for the Jedi and the royal family to have some sort of communication and possibly open doors to future agreements if everything went well.
It was time for Elias to make his way to the palace and he gently pushed off the railing to stand up to his full height. He cast one more glance to the reflective lake before turning and heading down the street. When he arrived at the palace, the guards stepped in front of him and acted as an obstacle as their weapons crossed together. He was dressed in regular civilian clothing with a jacket, shirt, and some long pants and he didn't blame them for the suspicion, with the princess' kidnapping and all. "I'm here to meet the royal family. I have received an invitation."
Elias pulled out the seal for the royal family and the guards quickly snagged it out of his hand to inspect it. When they realized it wasn't counterfeit, they straightened their backs and gave it to him gingerly. "Apologies, please step inside." The Jedi gave a brief nod, "No need for an apology." They were just doing their job. The guards stepped to the side to allow him through and he walked up the marble steps and entered the palace.
