Baston of Ren - Rooftop
Shortly after the battle at the First Order's blockade
Sunset over the jungle of Virgillia. It was an oddly tranquil, warm evening. The jungle's humidity had faded thanks to the season's cooler weather. The cries of local wildlife were soothing, there was no hint of the monsters that lurked beneath the canopy, only the tame and calm calling of birds and beasts. Stood on a stone balcony overlooking the vast jungle was the figure of a small girl, no older than her late teens, gazing into the distance. The scene would look to an outward observer to be harmless. They would have no hint of the dangers which lurked beneath the jungle's trees. They would have no hint of the dangers which lurked beneath the girl's skin.The girl, Samka Derith, shifted her position on the call of a woman behind her, one of the Disciples of Ren. A relatively small wooden table had been brought up with three chairs. On the table rested a large plate of roasted meat next to a smaller plate of vegetables, a bowl of sauce and bottles of wine and juice. It was all freshly prepared, entirely harvested from the jungles by Disciples over the last week or so. It was nice, Samka reflected, to be self-sufficient.
"I have prepared it exactly as you asked, Ma'am," the other Ren bowed as Samka inspected the feast.
"Well done." Samka smiled at her underling, "I'll be sure to save you some of the healthier parts for your trouble." Samka knew first hand the diets trainees were kept to could be harsh but there were a few parts of the dish which could be given as a reward. "Thank you again, you may return to your other duties," Samka nodded respectfully to the Disciple who returned the gesture and left.
Samka reclined back against the balcony wall, now she had to wait here for the pair she'd invited to make their entrance. It was frustrating, she was hungry and the feast called to her but it shouldn't be too long.
[member="Ara Zambrano"] had narrowly escaped death during the blockade. While she shielded herself from serious injury, Samka remained somewhat concerned for her health. It could be good to treat her, to give the woman a surprise. The other invitee was [member="Brennan Cabrol"]. Samka had noted placing them together was more successful in creating a bond than she'd hoped, the pair were loyal to one another, perhaps even friendly. Having the boy there may relax the situation somewhat.
So she waited, trying not to stare at the meat too much.
