The icy world of Rhen var was a beautiful place to work and well Matsu had taken to that. One of the old ruins they had been working in and creating a large astrometrics lab that could monitor and see the fruits of the seeder and mapping ships. Colonizations efforts using the coordinates and pathways created by the ancient jedi she had found with Corvus Raaf while exploring the jedi city. The holograms were in the air showing new sections and information as the ships spread out more and more, the original monitoring stations recieving destinations to be sent out to.

The other things that benefitted from it was having the mappers in systems to give a real time view of it all as they work on things going forward with a small grin on her face. Her artisan's were here working with some of the more rare materials they could find to test and experiment with. An icy wasteland was a good place and they could monitor worlds like Odecar Faustin where one of the infections were located. She wanted to mak sure the sickness didn't spread off the world or endanger others. The jedi master rubbed her hands together finishing up the work while some of the crystals were shaped as a hilt.

The other things they had worked on like the jedi crushgaunts and upgrades to the sigils for the lightside. Those were there, the transports with their heavier armor and the jedi robes designed to offer superior protection compared to others like it while still being robes. the researchers were working on things and constructed the shielding amulets they had discovered and made for the jedi. The energy shield they had found to add a standard layer and a force layer to them. The fore light guns for handling sithspawn and darksiders, researchers working on her blades as the twin songsteel swords were there in the scanners.

Overall as the jedi master continued to work she left the doors opened leading into the labs where they were all working on sme of the things for other jedi. THe twin indexes to give out as a standard issue equipment to padawans were there before on a table. Her eyes looked up seeing the holograms of the world and could see the botany bay there docked on the planet being worked on with small upgrades to improve its engines and hyperdrive. New things to make it better able to provide different environments to raise creaturers and plants inside the massive garden.

Rhen Var... A planet that she hated because of the cold. She had a bad memory of it, even though the cold wasn't that bothersome today it still made her uneasy. Anyway, the reason why she was here today was to visit a valuable member of The Silver Sanctum, [member="Matsu Ike"], for a personal request. She wouldn't normally do that, since she would be so awkward if she wanted something for herself, yet she knew that she needed to do something about this eventually. Besides, one thing she knew about her even though they didn't talk that much was she had a big company that provided several items for Silver Sanctum, so she could help her get the item she needed. As the shuttle moved near towards the planet's surface, she opened up her holo-comm and sent a message to the nearby holo-comm frequence, which belonged to the woman. She got that from the Silvers' database. Always prepared, that one. "Master Ike? I am Nima Tann from Silver Sanctum. I am on my way to the Rhen Var right now, if you are not so busy I would like to speak with you." She said, then sent the message. Well, that went well, for a girl that was too shy for socializing.

Anyway, the shuttle landed to the surface, and the outer doors opened. The cold wind of the planet hit her skin, even though she was prepared for the cold, wearing a big, fluffy coat and gloves, it was still enough for her to shiver and she let out a sigh out of dislike for this place . Anyway, she started to wait in the landing point for an answer to her message and a possible rendesvous point. She didn't know about the planet itself though that much except of it being so cold, so she didn't want to stay here any longer that she needed to.

Matsu continued to work on the equipment there in the lab when the message arrived. She listened seeing Nima with a nod of her head while she was ready for some of the things. They were testing the different parts of the shielding amulet before she stood up and was moving towards the doorways. "Well, we look forward to you coming here." She offered a smile to that though while going and rubbing her hands together with some of the things they could work on. She set up and moved to meet the twi'lek while providing one of the golden circlets at the temple location. Where a few of the others just came to go to the caves the ruins were fixed up with jarna stone walls replacing the ruined ones. Her eyes going up to the skies sending the location of the landing pad for Nima to come and join her on the planet. "Come and join me at the temple. We've been working to fix it up."

 

[Nima Tann]

The answer was indeed positive, which put a smile to her face as she returned to the shuttle to tell the coordinates to the pilot. Then, the journey started again to the Temple that she took the coordinates of from Master Ike. The inside of the ship was indeed better than the outside's weather, so she was just happy that she didn't have to stay that long outside for an answer. Anyway, the destination was not that far away, so she didn't have to wait for too long, as she was still lost in thoughts she could already see the Temple. "Thanks for bringing me here." She said to the pilot as the shuttle slowly flew closer to the landing pad, the pilot just nodded and his nod was met by a smile. Then, the ship slowly landed to the pad and the outer doors slowly opened, revealing the Temple's beauty. She was amazed by the work that has been done here, even though the Master said that they were fixing it up. She would love to see the fixed-up version of this. The place was filled with people that were running around in a busy way. The restoration was going very nicely, she thought. Anyway, before she would lose herself in this beauty, she returned back to her mission, and started to search the area for [member="Matsu Ike"]. "Master Ike, I am at the landing pad." She sent the message to report her situation. This whole place was a whole new world for her, so she could get lost easily if she wasn't guided through.

She moved towards the landing pad to meet the jedi master, Matsu standing there ready while she saw the ship and the purple twi'lek offering a smile and bow of her head. "Welcome to Rhen Var." She stood for a moment before looking out across the large expanse where the light was catching the veins of crystals. She was looking at the different workers while they set the stones with metal reinforcements for all of the things. The modules they had been making for self sustaining colonies were being installed to work with different things in the distance where they were setting up watch towers and fences. "We have been working on some fo the more damaged sections but there is also the caves we are trying to mark the entrances of. We don't want nasty predators to sneak in when padawans are out searching for their crystals."

 

[Nima Tann]

Waiting only a couple of seconds, the Master was in her sight and she, as well, nodded and smiled as she saw her approaching. She looked pretty busy with things, so she would not take her time more than she had to, so she started to speak with a polite bow. "Thank you, Master Ike. Very impressive place you have got here." Complimenting someone or their work was always a good start for a conversation with people you didn't know, said the person who was very bad at socializing with people. Anyway, it didn't escape her attention that there were a lot of workers running around, which would be either a bad sign, or a good sign. Maybe it was her paranoia and the workers loved working hard, who knew. And the Master was talking about the caves, and some nasty predators. Maybe that was the reason why the workers were in such a rush and works here might not be as flawless as she thought? Well, she was about to find out. "Is everything going okay with your works, Master Ike? Workers seem a bit uneasy here, everyone running around in such a rush. Is there something that I can help you with?" She asked, and her words were sincere so it didn't look like she asked just for formalities. If the situation was as bad as she thought and she had a chance to help, she would feel much better, since asking for something without giving anything was always a bit selfish, and even rude for her.

Matsu was looking at her and gave a small nod of her head. "We are fine for the most part, rebuilding a place it a tricky thing at times. We've experienced some set backs but not enough to be a danger just keeps them on their toes instead of everything being perfect." Which was true, there were creatures in the tombs they had encountered and dealt with from undead to jako beasts but they were easy to handle it was just dealing with them if they went after the workers that might be the issue. Attracted by the noise since well the jedi weren't going to exterminate an entire area. Just move them away or encourage them to go somewhere else. Be at one with the nature before her attention came up. "we've also been working with some of the new equipment and test like for our weaves. Stronger veins of crystal so it can be more potent when used with jedi gear."

 

[Nima Tann]

"I understand, Master Ike. If you change your mind or you need any help, the offer still stands." She said to the woman with a nod, but did not press the subject any longer. If she needed help, she would say it. But Nima always thought it is better killing them off before they would attack and become danger for the ones that is trying to work here. She was that kind of Jedi, who would actually do something other than waiting, and she thought it would be the best course of action. But it wasn't her place, and the boss said no. So, she took a breath and started to spill what was her real reason to come here, especially to the place that she hated so much because of the cold. "I have come here... uhh... because I have a request from you actually. I've heard you make very good armor for the SSC. I don't have one, but I think I'll need one sooner or later since leather will not protect me that much in the upcoming fights." Then she added. "If you have time of course! I don't want to take your time that much if you are busy."

With a look at her and a request for armor... oh there was so much good stuff coming from it as she rubbed her hands together in excitement. "Oh new armor.... hmm lets see. Do you have any specific requests for what you would like on it?" She was working it up in her head while also using what they had with a wave of her hand activating the hardlight projectors to look at everything. The armors that sasori developed were mini and on display while she pulled up the light armor with its form fitted metal plating. Lighter in design while she was working over some of it with a display of Nima next to it. "We have developed and constructed a lightweight form fitted to the one wearing it. We've made it to be modified as needed. I know a number of twi'lek jedi who prefer lighter more traditional style outfits that can be protective."

 

[Nima Tann]

Well, the request went better than she expected. She was always worrying about forcing people to do something since it was one of her fears as well, but the Master looked not so bothered with the request even sounded a bit excited, so she put a relaxed smile. "Well I use a lot of acrobatics when I fight, especially I use the Ataru form so I need to move a lot... and uhh, I use a lot of mentalism and illusions. Also you might know that without the use of the Force I can't walk. I lost my ability to walk after Ziost..." She gave a bit backstory about herself in order to give the Master some ideas for the armor. "So, I think a light, flexible armor with some Force enhancing crystal would do the best. Also, uhh..." She waited for a bit, maybe telling this little thing would be a bit problematic for her. But anyway, she had to say it since if the crystal only responded to the light side it would be useless for her. She still had light side but in her battles she preferred to use the Dark Side. "If the crystal would be usable with the Dark Side, that would be great." Well, she said it. She didn't know what will happen though!

Matsu was hearing her and she had much the same problem, though hers was a body thing with the damage to her muscles when they had that large scale attack. Some damage had been healed but she could still barely move without the force while she looked at the twi'lek with a nod. She could work that into the armor and around with the right materials so it was light enough to move but still protective.. her second request as the jedi master looked at her. "I do not have the materials needed to fashion darkside enhancing crystals, I do not know any jedi that would need those." But she didn't say no, she knew the sanctum welcomed darksiders who were not sith but she was disheartened at how many jedi fell into that trap few could really handle.

Either way her face remained neutral while she was looking over some of the things. "However with the right materials there could be a special weave designed aside from the lightside and neutral weave that has been developed for use." She brought up the designed and the machinery they had developed going into some of the things with the armor. "For the darkside a lignan crystals if you could manage it of a large enough size and several smoke stones for mentalism augmentation. Through the force weave your armor will be able to function like a second skin with the form fitting we do for it." She said it with a smile and showed how it would be done as the press, spindle and loom would crush, meld and weave in the crystals.

 

[Nima Tann]

She was more understanding than she expected, but of course not without saying her piece about her using Dark Side. Little did Master Ike know, she wasn't one of the ordinary Jedi that only relied on the Light Side and was open to experiencing new things, besides she would say she was good at her job. "Actually I still use Light Side as well but I am not scared of learning new things. I think that if we learn the Dark Side we can know about our enemies better, and learn how to oppose them more efficiently in a fight." She said, still sincerity in her voice as to show her Dark Side didn't change her or it was kind of a trap. It was knowledge, and Jedi loved knowledge. Anyway she didn't go on about this subject more and returned to the armor, Master Ike continued to talk about several items that was necessary for this armor to happen, and Nima listened closely even though she didn't understand much about the process. Seeing it as the woman put it into show, it looked very fun and interesting, and easy for the machine to operate. "So, we will need some big crystals if we want this armor. Is there anything I can do to help, or can you find the items yourself?" It was indeed interesting, that she felt not very useful around as Master Ike seemed to have everything under control, which was very impressive.

She remained on her and offered a small smile. "Your help would be welcomed and it can satisfy some of my curiosity." She said it with a nod of her head while she looked up a couple of the things. "We just need to find a place where we can collect some very potent crystals." Darkside ones for her and for Matsu to study in the longer run as she gave it a few moment bringing up the galaxy map and zooming out from the planet. Then into the system and sector before it went out with blips coming from different locations. "Looks like there are some messages from the seeder ships, they have been following the locations we found for jedi cities." She zoomed out again to show more of the galaxy as she thought about it and tapped a finger to her chin.

"Somewhere strong in the darkside of the force that hasn't been secured by the silver sanctum." She was thinking about it and a couple ideas came to her when she zoomed in towards the unknown regions with a nod of her head at one of the regions that was empty space they couldn't fill in. "There were rumors in the jedi order of a place in the unknown regions where the darkside of the force ran stronger then most. Where sith lords in the shadows stockpiled all of the supplies to spread their corruption across the galaxy. We can reach it quickly thanks to some of the things and search there for Qixoni crystal, Lignan crystal and Katak crystals." Matsu looked at her with some thoughts as she tapped it in looking over things. "A good place to start if not sneaking onto Tython under the white current could be done. There used to be a lab studying the darkside and artifacts on Bogan that I doubt they discovered yet. Not many pay attention to all of the records."

 

[Nima Tann]

There were couple of choices in front of them to get those crystals as Master Ike opened the holo for several locations. And she was glad she had the chance to help! At least she wouldn't feel bad to ask someone's help if she helped them back! So, she nodded after listening her speech, not cutting her because that would be pretty rude. "It seems like we have our destination. I think we can start from the immediate danger and then move on to the next place. If the Sith is corrupting the place with those crystals, then we need to remove them as soon as possible to prevent more damage. At least the crystals will be more of a use for us instead of being used for destruction, right?" She said, then added. "And then we can move on to the lab if we still need more, as you said if it's a forgotten lab then we have nothing to worry about not finding what we need." That seemed like a plan to her, but of course she would like an input. "What do you think, Master Ike? Which destination would satisfy your needs in a more efficient way?"

Debating on where they should go the jedi master gave a nod of her head. Two of them should easily be able to handle the situation and she knew several tricks for getting out of dangerous situations. Matsu tapped the blank space in the Unknown regions. "We'll start here, if there is a world out there that is a stronghold of the darkside and they do not control it we might find everything we need, navigating into the unknown regions we can easily do in my ship." She had a vanguard for roaming around and they were working on new versions of it as she started directing some of the other things there. "We'll bring probes and equipment to search.' She stayed on it though walking towards nima and nodding her head while she pointed. "Ready to go and have some fun?"

 

[Nima Tann]

The Jedi Master’s next words made her smile. Indeed, her words sounded like a plan to her! And their destination would be the dark side stronghold. There would be many things for them to explore, and studying the Dark Side, she would have many things to learn. One Jedi saying was, "A Jedi's training in the Force never ends." after all! Though Unkown Regions were, well, uknown. So there would be surprises in the way. But looking at her words, she sounded like she had the proper equipment to go through! So, like her she gave a nod and a smile. That would be an interesting journey as she never fought alongside with Master Ike before and knowing what she could do would do well for her knowledge base. Also, it sounded like a good time because she had nothing else to do other than fighting some generic pirates and stuff, so that was all good! “I am always ready for a good time.” She said smiling.

Matsu looked at her giving a nod of her head while she motioned for them to come with the ship that was being prepared for the journey. They would be able to work with a few of the more interesting avenues. Matsu continued forward as some of her researchers and lab workers were bringing the other things to her. "Master Ike, from Krass and the tech division we have have the latest version of the weavable mesh." Matsu looked at nima who could see this they were after all working on plenty more and she had with Kay developed her own outfit much like this. THe superior quality and levels they were working with when she took it. "Thank you, I will ensure we test it out on the way."

They would have a long travel time there halfway across the galaxy and through one sith territory but they could do it. Hell one of the benefits of having been around for awhile was she had made friends with a number of others across the galaxy and knew how to get through the space. She was working on many of the things holding the mesh while it was weaved with the dreamsilk to look like a slghtly bulky kimono that matsu could wear and it radiated the lightside of the force. Matsu came out and showed the ship for them, one of the vanguard that had been worked on and loaded with a converter as well as the better living modules they had constructed.

Matsu was leaving it opened for them while she pushed out some of the ideas going here and there. The ship was sleek on the inside, filled with some equipment as Matsu stood in the holoroom showing the map with a grin on her face. "We'll be ready to head out soon enough." She was ready touching the meshed work kimono as she went to one fo the rooms and changed coming out in the white and purple kimono while she straightened it with a small look on her face setting the course for the droids when tey were ready to go. Bigger sections and work while she felt the feeling of the force within it displaying another project they had been working on.
