S O L A C E
Standing at the base of the steps to the Senate Building on Coruscant, Lanik looked up the series of steps to the grand doors. He’d heard about the meeting between the Galactic Alliance and the New Imperial Order. Never once did the Jedi think that the general he’d met on the field of battle would be the one to turn on the Sith. The one who’d spoken about not having a choice in fighting for the Sith, the one now leading the charge against them.
Newscasters and paparazzi lingered around the senate building, pictures being taken as other senators exited. Resting his back against the speeder waiting to take the Imperator to the spaceport Lanik looked haggard. Not as bad as when he and Tavlar had last met, yet still his exhaustion was visible. The Jedi’s hair unkempt, black circles lingered under his eyes, and stubble had managed to form on his chin.
Blue eyes tracked the doors as they permitted other to leave, all before locking on to Tavlar. Since the battle of Kintan it seemed that the one-time General had suffered more injuries. The shard of metal protruding from their head almost resembling a horn. Yet surprisingly he appeared slightly younger than Lanik remembered? Perhaps it was a lack of stress from working under the Sith, or perhaps some sort of surgery?
Climbing the steps, the Jedi Knight approached the other warrior intending to meet them halfway. Each step was calm, collected, but with the grace of a nexu on the hunt. Coming to a stop before the man, Lanik would extend his forearm. “A pleasure to meet you once more General, or should I use Imperator now?”
