Jerolme relished the opportunity to get away from the stress and tedium of political life in the Core. Problems had conspired against him in all the time that he had held Coruscant's top office, and he was convinced that he had had the most difficult term of any Coruscanti Governor in many years. The recent military conflicts the Alliance was involved in brought no relief. Truly, it was thankless work. Nothing to break the tedious ten-mile run in the summer heat, nor are you allowed to walk. Only the strong can survive in such a relentless business.
He turned to the woman beside him, the Queen of Commenor, one of the few people in this galaxy who might've been able to sympathise with his plight. They were old friends, and it amused Jerolme to think about the fact that he studied her so intently during their first encounter as if she were some enemy. But in a galaxy of lesser statesmen and women, it was refreshing to see someone of her stature, dignity and conviction. So it behooved him to establish a positive and long-lasting relation with her, which had so far been met with unbounding success. Equally, the relationship between the Galactic Alliance and CSA had been fruitful and positive to date. A good deal of that, Jerolme thought, could be attributed to Lady Kay here and myself. She wasn't exactly his opposite number in Commenor, but it had been her that Jerolme had had the pleasure of meeting when he arrived on their world to establish relations, not he husband. Accordingly, it was she that he had cultivated a friendship with.
So Jerolme had chosen [member="Lady Kay"] to join him in taking a break from the ennui of displeasing political work, and travel to Voss, far away from all the issues they dealt with in day-to-day life. The vivid colours and lush environment of the distant world were popular with visitors, and he was sure that Kay, ever the admirer of beautiful natural landscapes, would enjoy the place. Jerolme had even brought a rifle for a much-needed hunting session. He intended to enjoy this day to the full, to forget about the dark shadows lurking in his mind. He was sure that Kay would eminently enjoy a brief chance at relative freedom from the burdens of raising her new children. Speaking of which, "How are little Caedyn and Loreena, by the way?" Jerolme asked Kay. "I must pay them a visit some time."
With the pair were their respective staff, travelling to the planet capital Voss-Ka in Lady Kay's private ship The Free Lady. The ship touched down, the landing ramp lowered, and the party allowed themselves to be exposed to the bountiful beauties of this new world.
"What do you say to spending a couple of hours out in the wilderness?" he asked Kay with a smile. "Then we can return to Voss-ka and I'll buy you the best lunch in the city."
