The 8th Noble
Life day was a while ago now, with emphasis on life given all that had happened.
Colette sat on top of a cliff, not too far from the enclave but well outside of earshot from any of the usual eavesdroppers. Her presence on the planet had been a bit more consistent in recent weeks. Came with the territory. While the child wasn’t hers it had still caused something inside of her to go numb. Like a slow realization that either Corazona was early to the beat or Colette was about to start seeing a lot more of her friends settle down and start families.
The idea hadn’t really crossed her mind yet. At least not to any greater extent. There was still too much to see out there. Still too many types of worlds she hadn’t yet trailed across or even caught glimpses of.
But, that was her. Today wasn’t about her, it was about Makko. As Colette dangled her feet over the cliff’s edge she looked to the six-pack by her side and eagerly awaited the man’s arrival.
The second she noticed his presence she would glance over her shoulder to greet him and motion for him to sit next to her and simply enjoy the view and the silence for a moment. All things considered, despite the ‘nobility’ and their presence, Ukatis was a remarkably beautiful place.
“Glad you could make it.” She said and handed the man the first beer from the pack. “I haven’t… Really planned anything. It’s been a while, and I know how Cora is doing, so I figured I’d check in with you too.”
“How have you been, Makko?”
