Few days prior to first Chancellors Debate.
Naboo
Porte Homestead
It was a busy day on the homestead. There was being done and being restructured after the last fiasco that happened. He wasn't sure if he was every going to come back here again. He was being tested over and over again and he was tired of living in limbo, living in the fear of loss and being alone. He devoted much of his time to training his mind and body. He spent days on end going through the course was designed by his Mentors that consisted of Briana Sal-Soren , Lorn Reingard and several others. A few hours of sleep each night and he was back at it again the following day. It had been almost a month since his ordeal, and instead of resting on the event. He used it as a slingshot forward, to keep fighting.
Aiden now knew that he was meant for more than this. The time for mourning was over, dawn had come. Light and hope had seemingly shined on the Jedi Padawan once more.
He knew in his heart that he couldn't dishonor his fathers memory by continuing as he was before.
"The garden will be at the center of the complex. Around the garden there will be three entrances on either side. It will a decent size, enough for those who find comfort and peace in the gardens to come and reflect if they wish."
Aiden had spent some time working on designs and upgrades for the Porte homestead. "There is a housing barracks for those member of Shiraya's Hope, they deserve it after all they have done." Aiden pointed to the other end which was almost close to being completed, it is to be a training pad for those that Aiden would take on as an apprentice should that time come. And he glanced back towards his home that was too, as many other structures around here being worked on.
Aiden took a deep breath and smiled. He knew his father had a dream of sorts for this place, and he would do what he could to fulfill that dream as best as he could.
"Aiden it looks amazing." Astraa spoke as he gave him a gentle side hug. She was well aware of what he had been through. Owen, Castor, they all knew. "We are here for you brother. You know that." Owen placed a strong hand on his shoulder, giving a small shake. "Thank you guys, it means a lot. And I know you have a place of your own in Theed. But, don't ever hesitate to come out here and visit, or stay for a few days." Aiden laughed lightly as he moved towards the front of his house and took a seat, as the did the rest.
"While I am doing okay, it still does get a little lonely out here."
"Unfortunately all you have is blue milk in the house." Aiden laughed as Castor, walked out of the house with 4 glasses and a small box, which Aiden already knew where the cookies he just baked early. "Hey! That's for the watch party for the Chancellors debate." The Padawan laughed and shook his head.
"Don't worry, I'll make more." Castor smirked as he handed a glass to each of them and began pouring the blue milk in each of the glasses. And rightfully so, it was followed with an offer of cookies from the box. "Oh great, if no one shows up, I'll know why." There was a mix of laughter and stories that followed between the four of them, it had been a long time since they all had the opportunity to do this.
Aiden chuckled as he looked off into the distance, perhaps only seen to his eyes. Aiden took a deep breath as he gave a big smile and a nod in the distance.
Aiden could feel, the Padawan knew that he was proud.
