Mantic Dorn
Old school...
The morning carried a slight chill to it. The grass still wet and the drops form last nights rain still clinging to the autumn-colored leafs outside.
The jedi stood still, his robes closed around him and his hood up covering most of his features. The entrance of the jedi temple on Ossus was behind him - the great stairways behind him a magnificent reminder of the great peace the jedi order had managed to secure in its past history. There was allot of focus on the great wars of all times but too few really troubled themselves with remembering the great peace's - of which far greater heights of advancement in civilization had been achieved then through any war, how just they might have been.
Mantic inhaled and waited. His new padawan - [member="Illyana Nightshade"] - should be moving down those very stairs about now he figured. It was time for their first real meeting as master - padawan. And Mantic had made no illusion that this would not be a tough ride for her.
He just hoped that he would find out her true potential and connect that with how the jedi is to serve the greater good of order, civilization and freedom. In time it would tell, in time they would climb many steps on this steep stairway but for now, they were on the first step, reaching up to start the climb.
He closed his eyes allowing his senses to reach out for her. He waited there, back to her approach, taking the moment in as they were about to begin their joint climb.
