Taris was not what Natalie expected. Compared to Ord Mantell, the ecumenopolis was massive. The night life here must be insane- for the people that could afford it, that is. Natalie walked through the streets on one of the upper levels with her black tank-top and dark jeans. She’d left her lightsaber at home, and by home she meant ship guarded by Mantellian troopers. The only weapons on her were her TacSpork and phrik knuckles, both tucked securely in her jean pockets.
For once in her Jedi Crusader career, she wasn’t on a mission that had a high chance of combat. She wasn’t on a mission for the Jedi at all, actually. No, she was here on her own mission; a mission to learn how to cook the holy grail of quick and delicious foods- Tatooine street food. Natalie’s interest was immediate when ramen showed up on the list of dishes covered. They even brought a Tatooine native to hold the seminar.
Imagine Natalie unlocking the galaxy’s greatest gift to its inhabitants and using it daily? Oh the food she could cook! Prepare some homemade ramen cups for a week, and she’d never have to sprinkle Mantellian seasoning on cups of cheap noodles again! Not to mention she’d be able stir fry and all sorts of other stuff. Natalie’s stomach growled, because of course it did. She wanted nothing more than to get the day over with, having the secrets of good food in her brain instead of not in it. And food in her stomach, obviously.
The seminar building came up and Natalie stepped inside. The lobby was much like one would expect from such an establishment of learning. There was a reception area, a small kitchen and café, and a whole lot lounge seating. Natalie looked down at her EZPhone, making sure she had the address right, and then checking the room number. To make it even easier, there were signs pointing down the hall for it.
Down the hall toward greatness she went, and finally reached the room. It was an auditorium. A twi’lek with blue skin standing just inside the doorway waved at Natalie with a warm smile, lifting a datapad toward her.
“Would you like to enter in a raffle to enter a cooking competition after the seminar?” the twi’lek asked. Natalie tilted her head. She didn’t know the first thing about cooking, which was why she was here in the first place. She did tend to learn better when under some heat. Pun intended.
“Sure!” Natalie signed the datapad and slid into a seat near the back.
