Carrick was getting used to having enough wealth to buy such a lovely house because being the Senator for Tinnel IV had gotten him a lovely apartment in the centre of the capital city but being the Secretary of Defense for the ISC got him the funds and connections to buy himself a country house on any ISC world. Despite doing a lot of work on Christophsis, he didn’t rate the locale very highly so he had decided on Naboo.
Specifically some of the mountainous regions of Naboo, out of the way from the cities and the politics because he wanted to be able to come here, come home, and be able to switch off if he wanted to. He wouldn’t be able to do that in Theed so he was half the world away from the planet’s capital city and he was glad of it.
Even if it did make trips to the store for blue milk difficult.
With its private landing pad, however, he could entertain visitors and only one person actually had his address who knew who he actually was currently and that was Reiel. Hence why the Secretary of Defense for the ISC was currently leaning against the railing overlooking the view from the house, waiting for her visit while dressed in pajamas.
They had little lightsabers on them.
