"Wild dogs and foxes… sometimes you may even get a bear or one of the larger cats. Things of that nature, usually," Vex offered softly. "Yeah, mostly farm life. Though it's rather nice to take long walks through the woods or along the coast. I enjoy exploring the wilderness and finding new hiking trails."

He took a few more sips, considering the quiet life he had carved out for himself.

"Coming across a bear is about all the excitement I really need these days... There's a great spot near the mouth of one of the mountain passes. I've set it up as a little shooting gallery," he continued. "Every so often, I head into town and pick through the scrap for new targets to haul out there. It keeps my aim sharp, and gives me something to do besides chasing hungry animals away from the hens."

A small smile graced his features.

"Nothing quite so exciting as hunting a Vuhyr'yaliyr for a final test, of course," he added, remembering what she had told him. Vex knew well enough that the quarry was rarely the entirety of a Mandalorian trial. "Was bringing the beast down the hardest part of yours, or was it everything else they made you do~?"

"Yeah, mostly farm life. Though it's rather nice to take long walks through the woods or along the coast. I enjoy exploring the wilderness and finding new hiking trails."

That sounded peaceful, nice even, but not something she could ever justify doing yet. Not while there was so much to get done. Maybe as a break, but surely not as a lifestyle and she told him as much, "As a break, sure, that sounds great, don't think I could do it personally as a lifestyle. Too...uneventful," she said after a moment of thinking of the right word in basic. "Not right now, anyway," she clarified.

"Coming across a bear is about all the excitement I really need these days... There's a great spot near the mouth of one of the mountain passes. I've set it up as a little shooting gallery," he continued. "Every so often, I head into town and pick through the scrap for new targets to haul out there. It keeps my aim sharp, and gives me something to do besides chasing hungry animals away from the hens."

"Static targets are great for honing muscle memory," she agreed with a nod. "But you need something that moves to really keep your skills sharp," she added with a smile. "Ever think of one of those solid state hologram training environments?" she asked "Though those bear things sound like they make for great moving targets," she said, tilting her head in consideration. "Now that sounds like a great time."

"Nothing quite so exciting as hunting a Vuhyr'yaliyr for a final test, of course," he added, remembering what she had told him. Vex knew well enough that the quarry was rarely the entirety of a Mandalorian trial. "Was bringing the beast down the hardest part of yours, or was it everything else they made you do~?"

"The trick is finding it before it finds you," she explained. "You've got to get to the extraction point by dawn the next day or you've failed, and you better have killed one by then. It's...one way to select candidates. Hardest thing still had to be my verd'goten, though." She looked at his face for any sign of recognition to see if he knew what that word meant before continuing, "Had to get past my buir and his vode, basically everyone who trained me, to pass."

"That was.." she started, hand falling to where she'd been grazed all those years ago by a Verpine Shatter slug. "...difficult." She said after what seemed an eternity. "What about your planet, any interesting coming of age ceremonies?" she asked, snapping out of her reminiscing after a moment to ask him the question.
