Rasu Gan
Old Lady Returned
Coruscant
The city could never truly change. The sights and the smells remained the same as they had when Rasu had left the galactic capital. It seemed that no matter how many groups controlled the planet, it would never truly transform. Locals could live oblivious to the raging political spectrum that existed in the Upper levels. Living on Coruscant held perks for many, but the Shi'ido no longer viewed the planet the same way. She had once called this world her home, however there was nothing homely about it anymore. While transparent to the blind eye, through the lens of the Force, Rasu was aware of the various corruptions that had taken place during the One Sith occupation. The city reeked of the dark side, so much so that the Jedi wondered whether the atrocities could ever be cleansed. While she was grateful that the center of the galaxy was now in the hands of the Jedi, Rasu wondered whether Coruscant would fare better under Alliance rule. Would anyone truly notice the change?
Walking through the familiar streets, Rasu smiled as she witnessed the daily going-on's of Coruscanti life. Hearing of the successful take-over, she had longed to visit her old home, finding that she had often regretted the departure to Voss several years earlier. While she knew that this was just a temporary visit, the woman was curious to see the changes made, laughing silently as she witnessed the sheer lack of differences since her own occupation of the planet. Politely waving away store keepers attempting to sell their wares, Rasu found herself standing in one of the expansive trade hubs, a spacious hive of activity filled with various stores and stalls. Deciding she had time to browse, the woman journeyed on, admiring the range of exotic and foreign items that were for sale.
As she continued her browsing, she began to feel a growing disturbance in the Force. Mistaking it for just another minor dark nexus, Rasu carried on, stopping at a fruit stall where she would purchase a juicy looking pear. Content now, she took off once more, now happily munching on the sweet fruit. However the disturbance once more entered the forefront of her mind, stronger this time as she drew closer to the source. Ceasing the chewing, Rasu focused on the call, discovering that this source emanated from a Force-sensitive being. Moving more cautiously now, the woman would hone in on the source, reaching out through the Force to make the being aware of her presence.
Walking towards the source, a young man looking no older than 20, Rasu offered a sweet smile before gently tapping him on the shoulder. She knew that her presence would obviously present some confusion, no doubt even alarming the young man, but curiousity drove her to investigate further.
"And who might you be young man?"
