The Blood Hound
Madalena laughed. "I don't know what's true and what's not true as far as how Alwine sees the picture. I will tell you this though – your sister is a remarkable woman, and I'm both excited and sort of dreadful when the day comes that she realizes the Knights Obsidian is too small for her."
Yes, she already knew the Lechners were a stubborn lot. It didn't change the fact though that she adored Alwine. With Gerwald, she wasn't so sure, and since she'd never met the third one, she had absolutely no opinion of him.
Either way, he was agreeing to lean on her now, so Madalena didn't falter; he was big, he was heavy, but she was strong even without use of the Force. As Gerwald continued to speak, Madalena started to walk, step by step, letting him lean on her as they did so. If he wanted to let the blood flow, to get his legs moving, that was exactly what they were going to do, and they were going to move out of the kitchen.
"So if you admit to be so selfish," she posed the question, "why are you so judgy about this Scherezade for being selfish? I don't know if you do this all the time, but in this convo at least, you're accusing her mostly of behaving like you. Is there a reason?"
And of course, there was his last question.
"My big effort," Madalena explained, "was getting you out of those caverns and into the bacta. For one, I don't want your sister to have a reason to mourn you. For two, I don't like it when fellow Knight Obsidians die on me. We need more of us around and you might need more training, but you're still good to have around when battle erupts. For three… I don't have a three but I can make something up if you want to."
Grinning, she began to walk them out of the kitchen. The corridor opened and Baal ran around them, darting forward. The walls and the murals of the corridor were covered from floor to ceiling in Madalena's paintings; and both the mural of the Princess and the mural of the wolves were not too far from them.
"Other than that," she resumed, "we're stuck with each other until we get to Geonosis, so… We talk to make time pass. You pretty much dictated the direction of the conversation and I'm fine with going with the flow for now."
As Madalena's words came to an end, the two had reached the mural of the Princess; standing bare footed on the grassy forests that stretched around her, her body made of delicate curves though it was clear her arms and legs were strong, but whereas detail was drawn on every piece of wall that Madalena had gotten her hands on, the woman's face lacked in detail almost entirely, allowing only for a few shadows and big green eyes that omitted the emerald glow. Her hair dark and long, and Madalena had managed to make it look as though it had been captured while blowing in the wind.
Of all of her paintings, it was one that Madalena loved the most. Of course, no one really noticed the area next to the Princess. Madalena had attempted to paint the Prince there so many times, but it never came out right. Eventually, she just covered it with more and more layers of the forest.
