“The zymod was an arboreal creature native to the jungle moon Ajan Kloss. They had the ability to change the colour of their hide.”
– Galactic database on fauna, native to Ajara
Although Ajan Kloss was a moon, it had two moons of its own. And the jungle resonated with life although there were no large predators present. The environment had been likened to the planet Dagobah, where Luke Skywalker trained under Yoda. As far as Fiach could tell, the similarities between Dagobah and Ajan Kloss were that they were wet, warm, green and overflowing with life, although – apparently – Ajan Kloss did not smell as bad.
Fiach enjoyed running through the jungle as part of her training. Not all of her focus was on the Force or even Jedi Lore. Some of her time was devoted to keeping fit and healthy and so she performed a daily run – or two if time allowed. And today was such a day, as she headed back towards the Temple as dusk fell.
She stopped abruptly as something jumped out in front of her and startled the young Padawan. She laughed to herself when she realised it was a zymod, which had frozen in place and assumed the colour of the path it was now resting on.
“Be careful,” she chided it, “I could have stepped on you. Sometimes you can be too well camouflaged for your own good.” Carefully and gently, she bent down and lifted the small tree-loving creature up to take a good look at it. “Back up high for you, where you can’t do any mischief,” she said and placed it on a nearby branch.
