Private Guiding Light

[Iandre Athlea]

The former Jedi and near officer of the Lilaste Order had taken on one additional duty for the day. The youngest daughter of an acquaintance from the Diarchy was expected to visit Aurora Station. As one of the few females on board, she decided she would give the girl a tour and answer any questions she might have, both about the Order and herself.

The trip from the planet below took about half an hour, and Iandre was waiting for the teen when it arrived. She wasn't wearing her armor; instead, she wore grey pants and a shirt, with the pants tucked into her grey boots. Like usual, her hair was braided and hung down her front to her shoulders. Her lightsaber was clipped to her hip, and her eyes were friendly as she watched Jayna exit the shuttle.

"Welcome to Aurora Station. I'm Iandre Athlea."

Nodding her head politely, she held a hand out to the girl as she introduced herself.

Aurora Station was a new experience. Jayna had looked into the Lilaste Order before agreeing to the field trip. There were so many possibilities for awesome that by the time Jayna was on the shuttle she could barely sit still. If she was friends with the pilot she probably would have paced the whole ride. But she knew her manners and sit still like a proper young lady.

When the docking sequence started Jayna's feet started to fidget. Her hands were poised at the release for her safety restraints. She knew her manners, that didn't make Jayna patient. With the Lilaste Order focused on martial actions to gain balance and order in the galaxy, Jayna was quite hopeful to get to see some cool ships and weapons. She was sure there would be much more to it, but she had her base interests.

She also wondered who would show her around. Jayna thought her mom mentioned a name, but Jayna was too excited to focus on that yet. Master Laphisto would be incredibly cool. But Jayna had no hopes of that happening. Maybe she would get lucky and see him though.

Not needing to be told it was time to disembark, Jayna released her safety harness and rushed to the ship's ramp. The dock of Aurora Station was pretty normal, so Jayna quickly focused on the woman waiting. Most Jayna's age would probably think this chaperone was old. Jayna didn't think that way. Partially because she knew that a lifespan was a very personal thing, and secondly because she saw someone she wished she could be.

Jayna returned the nod and took the offered hand. Formality was something Jayna had been taught from a very young age. She was very happy to see no bowing or curtsy was required. "Hi Iandre. Thanks for showing me around. I am Jayna Ismet-Thio. I am looking forward to seeing things on the station." Jayna's focus settled on Iandre's lightsaber, but she forced herself not to stare.

It was refreshing to see a teen so excited to be at the station and get a tour. Iandre would do her best to give the girl the answers she wanted and help lead by example of what she might be when she grew up. The former Jedi had grown up as a warrior and had been trained for as long as she could remember to be a fighter. She was pleased to know that this had mainly changed in the galaxy, but it was nice to have the interest of this young adult standing before her.

"Pleased to meet you, Jayna. If it's easier, you can call me Ian. This is obviously one of the landing bays. Probably the most widely used, but there are a few others nearby for the military to come and go from."

Ian was being as open as she felt she could be at the moment. Jayna didn't need to see everything, but just mentioning that aspect should be enough. Tipping her head in the direction of the hangar door, she completed the motion by lifting her shoulder and making a sharp turn where she wanted to walk with the teen.

"Is there any specific area you have the most interest in?"

For the moment, she wasn't going to mention the focus she saw on her lightsaber. There would be a better chance in the near future for her to get a closer look at it when they arrived at the training area.
