Faction Rattle the Cage

[Ghruna]

Zaiya Ceti

Ghruna had come to several hours ago. In the time since, she had wrestled with the sense of shame.

She hadn't landed a single blow on her opponent. She had been trapped in a shield. Her sense of order was based on a strict hierarchy. Might was right. Her father was a king because he has taken the crown in battle. She was one of many children who had to prove themselves.

No one could win every battle, but to be captured without putting up a fight was a terrible fate for her. The guard had seemed perplexed when she had demanded a swift execution.

"Stupid little bird," she grumbled. This was a Republic or Jedi prison, but she could learn nothing else from the limited view she was afforded by her cell.

"... and while she said she wanted to kill me, it seemed it was more that she wanted to prove her strength or worth, perhaps by fighting," Zaiya explained to Colette as they made their way towards the particular detention cell where Ghruna was.

The whole events on the ship and what exactly happened during the diplomatic mission was still being investigated, but this particular aspect could be overseen by a member of the Jedi Council, especially since it dealt with the detainment of what could potentially be a member of the Sith Covenant. The Lovalla Knight had requested that a member of the Jedi Council oversee the matter and meet with Ghruna, because the Lovalla believed that, despite the threats, the horned woman lashed out angrily at her, she didn't quite mean it.

"It reminded me of the Epicanthix or Eshani culture, where fighting was either communication or maybe it is a way to show their value?" The colorful Lovalla tipped her multicolored hair and looked up at Colette, then gave a bright sunny smile.

"It is nice seeing you again Colette.... I mean. Master Noble." she added, trying to be respectful to Colette's new Council position.

 

[Colette]

Ghruna Zaiya Ceti

"I see." Colette said rather grim as she continued making notes from what Zaiya was saying. A captured Sith acolyte from the Covenant. Admittedly not the Sith Order she had hoped for but a good catch nonetheless.

… I mean, Master Noble.

Colette's nose scrunched, she shook her head. "Please don't."

"Master titles make me uneasy." Her grimace eased up. "Quartermaster will do just fine, thanks."

"Anyway, I'll be following your lead in there, Knight Ceti." Colette fired back with a grin that quickly faded. "I trust your judgment on this."

She went over the notes one more time before they arrived at the cell. Colette gave the cell door a quick nod before they walked on in.

"Good evening." Her voice stern but not hostile. "I am Colette, you know Zaiya already."
