Cole had been doing more than his fair share of travelling. It would take much more before everything was set in place to reach the level of effectiveness he was looking for. Cole didn't have the ability to rely on the Force, he was hesitant to rely solely of tech. What Cole needed.......what he cared about most was the man or woman beside him in the trench. Ensuring they were the best equipped for the job.
That is what today was about. More than a dozen men and women stood in front of him. Some like Cole in various version of armor and a few taking the first steps into adopting the Mandalorian way of life. Much like he had and in some cases a journey not yet completed. If was for the latter group that Cole had dropped to pure basic for today's schedule.
"Ladies and Gentlemen thank you for coming."
Cole paused.
"As some of you are aware we live in trying times." "The Galaxy while never the safest and peaceful place in some areas has...................."
Cole scanned the crowd.
"............shall we say devolved." "Places thought to be safe are now less so." "Our noble neighbors have been shown to be less so as of late." "The Core worlds since the collapse of the Republic and the One Sith in constant upheaval." "We are headed for dark times as proven by the Omega Crisis."
Cole paused.
"You are gathered here because in these times I.................we are going to need as many good soldiers as we can get to meet these dangers." "Tomorrow we will begin selection." "Each of you will be tested, trained, and evaluated for the purposes of establishing a new unit within the Mandalorian Clans."
Cole smiled.
"The Verde be katsunaragr. The Soldiers of Excess................ for those of you already fully adopted into our ways think of it as a cleverly named new Clan." "For those who pass and except the honor we will be your new family."
Cole paused glancing towards Stardust.
"To help in this process I have invited a member of Clan Raxis." "Do not let the pretty fool you she has seen and survived more poodoo than you can imagine." "If she says you don't have it than you don't have it."
Cole smiled.
"Today get to know the man or women to the left and right of you." "Have a drink, share stories, and learn about them." "It will be the last chance to have a bit of fun before selection begins."
