As the Jedi shuttle began to punch below the clouds of Devaron, Ferrin couldn’t deny the swell of nervousness that began to rise in his chest - his mind once again going over the mission brief. Despite the official ban against the Jedi Order, the Governor of Devaron - an elderly man, and one known for being sympathetic to their kind - had covertly requested their presence to deal with a series of issues taking place on the planet. For years, the jungles of Devaron had grown progressively unsafe - plagued by some myriad of nightmarish creatures, attacking travelers and merchants alike. Their modest security forces had proven unable to flush out the infestation, and pleas to the Republic Senate had largely gone unanswered.
It was only now - as the problem had escalated beyond control - that pleas had been made to the Jedi Order.
Of course, as they approached the surface of the planet, Ferrin could feel the Darkness that seemed to permeate through the Force all around them. It was a palpable sense of dread, the kind that pierced down to the Padawan’s core and left him significantly more on edge than usual. He glanced through the viewport, shifting uncomfortably in his seat.
Little did the Pantoran understand the context of the dark presence. He was oblivious to events from years past when the Former Empress(@Phoenix) and Dark Lord(@Sreeya) had worked to corrupt the natural Force Nexus. Their corruption had gone unchecked for years, and had finally begun drawing creatures of the Dark Side like moths to the flame.
The Pantoran was dressed in his usual tunic, tugging a pack full of supplies and with a newly-forged lightsaber clipped to his belt. “What’re we even suppose to be looking for?” Ferrin asked after a moment, tugging the backpack a little higher onto his shoulder. He knew they’re journey into the jungles hadn’t even begun, and Ferrin would’ve been lying if he claimed he was looking forward to it whatsoever.
