Private Strong Foundations

[Illian Dragos]

Illian stood inside a small black room. Turning on the nightlamp, he observed his surroundings. There was a wooden bed made of thick wood, with an uncomfortable mattress. A reach-in-closet was on his left side. Out on his right side, he observed his makeshift storage space, where the young squire stored his swords, and some training materials that he had. Closing his eyes, images of his past experience on Nar-Shadaa pervaded in his mind. Considering the life he had in the Smuggler's Moon, and how he stood in his small apartment, the young squire was proud of how far he had come. Yet, he had so much to learn, and so much to discover.

Today would a day of discovery.

Observing on his datapad an article from the Naboo library, he looked at the Zeison Sha. It appeared there were an ancient order that lived on the desert-planet of Yanibar; however, they were fiercely isolationist and refused any visitors. What caught his eye however was their ability with telekinisis; the Epicanthix Warrior was aware of the strong nature of their ability, and their history with it. Knowing full well the various applications that telekiniss had in battle, he knew that he had to further develop the skill.

And that was where he was headed. Admittedly, it was harder to navigate considering the lack of major hyperspace routes. Arriving on the spaceport, he could see the planet was sparsely populated; he had never seen something like this before. He was cautiously optimistic: worlds like this hated new visitors.

Well, if there was one thing that he was used to, it was being hated. What a fun world to be in.

As he got out of the spaceport, he saw a bundle of dirt fly to his face. Attempting to cover his eyes, he saw that someone had send it flying toward his face. He bit his fist, clenching his fist as his face nearly grew red.

"Kark off." the man uttered. He could sense that he wanted him out of the world. He knew that Yanibar was fiercely isolationist, like the Chiss. But h never knew that it was this bad... Illian then saw someone shut him up, but he had alreacy proceeded out of the spaceport before he could see the full length of the discussion.

The young squire then got out his device. Examining the old records he saw, he wondered where the temple was... As he looked up, he could see the temple on top of a very tall mountain.

"Do I have to climb that high?" he muttered. Looking aorund, he tried to look for a shop with hiking equipment. That, and a small motel to stay at. He would need as much rest as possible for the next day.
