[Dameon Shikyo]

“Let us hope we don’t provoke a fight the moment we enter orbit. I really do detest needless conflict,” Dameon said to himself as his droid next to him co-piloting the light freighter. The droid nodded in agreement as it flipped switches. His ship Hellion appeared little more than a simple light freighter although obvious enhancements had been made to it, especially noticeable by anyone who knew anything about ships. The ship was now preparing to land upon Tython a planet where his master frequently spent his time and of course also where he had learned his knowledge of the force. Dameon sat there with his hands calmly on the controls as he guided the ship toward the landing platforms.


“Sir we are being hailed and guided toward a specific landing platform for investigation,” The droid named Waizu said as it pointed toward the landing space in question. “Let us obey we did not come here to hide our presence but rather to make it known. I assumed they would recognize the ships signature and code as someone from the Jedi order that had recently passed away. I figure they would be more curious than aggressive,” Dameon said responding to his droid as he landed the ship onto the platform and slowly shut down the non-essentials for the ship. Dameon stood up his blue cloak and clothes wrapped around his gracefully as he made his way toward the ramp.


“Waizu stay here in sleep mode. I doubt you will be needed in any other capacity than to act as a pilot. Time to go meet the people my master spoke so highly of,” Dameon stated as he pressed the button on the ramp and lowered it to the ground. Slowly Dameon would walk out and lower the hood of his cloak as he did so. The ramp behind him would quickly rise back up as well. Dameon looked around admiring the planet he had never visited before he started to make his way toward the end of the landing platform. He would stay there and wait respecting the wishes of the Jedi and would wait for an escort. Though he would continue to look around at the wonderful surroundings of the planet having been mostly confined to Coruscant or the hull of a ship. The nature and amount of green on the planet couldn’t help but make him smile slightly. He could also feel the planets life the force flowing through it like a superconductor, this place was strong and filled with light. Dameon would move his black hair to the side slightly before he stood there patiently crossing his arms as he waited for the ones to be meeting him.

Alaasha hadn't been planning on manning the Jedi Temple's landing platforms that day, and they were more chaotic then usual. A lot more. Ever since the conflict with the Sith had accerated, more often then not people were constantly entering and leaving Tython. Which was most likely why the Jedi Knight had been assigned that day, instead of some neglected Padawan.

One thing that was really bugging Alaasha was a particular ship incoming. It was not scheduled, yet it did belong to a Jedi, one that had gone missing a long time ago. She had ordered the freighter to be landed on an emergency platform, and was walking there currently. When she got there, a datapad in her hand, she observed the pilot as he stepped out. It was not the pilot on record however.

"State your name and business here."

 

[Dameon Shikyo]

Dameon acknowledged the approaching Jedi with a bow and a good show of faith as he truly did not want any conflict with the inhabitants of the planet. After all his goal was simple, he just wanted to learn about the Jedi and understand the choices that his master has made to practice a more neutral form, secretly train Dameon, and in the end perish because of a decision to go against the Jedi. Though he also realized that most Jedi would not know about these facts unless they knew him particularly well. Dameon would raise his head and unfold his arms as a sign of respect.


“My name is Dameon and I am here to learn more about the life of my master, I was his servant. He is only recently deceased and I wish to understand what it was that he was fighting for so strongly. If at all possible I would request an audience with a master as well since the details of his demise are not well known to me and I was hoping for some enlightenment on the matter,” Dameon said trying to hide his own prowess with the force and instead act as a mere servant to the man he had served. He wasn’t sure about the repercussions of someone who had been trained in the ways of the Jedi outside of the order would be.

 

[Alaasha Seriin]

"Dameon, eh? Well, welcome to Tython. If you hand over your weapons, I can tell you the limited knowledge we know about your master."

Alaasha did not like the idea of having someone who was not a Jedi, an Antarian Ranger, or an invited guest on Tython. However, the sooner the man got what he wanted, the less violent the whole ordeal would be and the sooner he would be out of Jedi territory.

“I am unarmed miss. Everything of value that I have is on board the ship which is of course out of reach of my own hands. This really does seem like a lovely planet. Sadly I have been confined to pretty much space after I left Coruscant. How about yourself, travel much?” Dameon asked as he smiled to the young Jedi and was glad he had left his lightsaber on the ship hidden away in one of the many hidden compartments. “True I want to learn about my master and his passing but I can’t help but also remain curious about my own rights. Am I free man in the eyes of the Jedi or am I now to serve another? I would also like to learn much about the Jedi. I hear you and the others are truly a beacon of light all over the galaxy,”

 

[Alaasha Seriin]

Well, at least Dameon had good manners. Alaasha shook her head slightly. She still didn't like the idea of having him in the temple, but at least he was unarmed.

"I am Knight Alaasha Seriin. And yes, I think almost everyone on Tython has been traveling a lot lately, sadly."

It was because of the Sith, but Alaasha didn't say anything about that. It wasn't a visitor's place to know all about the Jedi. But it would be horrible to give him a tour, right?

"Very well. I'm sure some of us we happy to have, guests. Although, if you try anything, I assure you some Jedi are not as forgiving as they claim to be."
