The Lion King
Jedi Temple
Coruscant
The gravely wounded Lion awoke to find himself behind the glass of a bacta tank, hooked up to a rebreather and submerged from head to toe. The light panic subsided upon recognising his whereabouts and the medical personnel observing him on the outside: He was once more a guest of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, under the care of Jedi healers. He strained his neck to look down the side of his torso to find a hideous scar where the broken blade of Derriphan had been thrust, and suddenly his whereabouts made sense.
The Nobles must have brought him here.
Upon being released and urged to spend the next few days in bed, Thurion found himself hobbling around the Temple halls in the dead of night. No rest would find him this night, for all the comfy pillow would offer was time to mull over his failure to land the killing blow. That, and he felt the need to locate a means to let his wife know of his whereabouts. Last she knew he was heading off solely on a hunch that he was needed.
The Jedi Temple was very different at night; its vast halls were largely empty, cleared of any daytime visitors and with only a handful of padawans scurrying through the corridors. Temple Guards maintained their statuesque vigil, only receiving relief at dawn. All you could hear was the tapping sound of his cane striking the hard floor with each arduous step, the slightest loss of balance causing immense pain.
Feeling the need for fresh air, Thurion stumbled his way towards the courtyard. He found that he wasn't alone in need of solitude.
"Master Noble," he caught himself as soon as the words left his mouth. "Kahlil. Forgive me, didn't think anyone would be out here. I'll leave you to your thoughts, I've no doubt they're no less troubled than my own."
Kahlil Noble
