The journey begins.

[Claire Ouron]

A small transport ship was docking with Botany Bay, it had only one passenger on board. Claire Ouron was asleep in the back when a sudden jolt awoke her. "We're here." The pilot said as he got out of his seat. Claire was thankful for the wake-up call, the dream was too vague for her to remember but it wasn't a pleasant one. She was breathing heavily and sweating. "You alright young lady?" Claire got up and picked up her bag, the only things in it was cloths and a datapad, she left most of her belongings at the temple and one more thing. "Yeah, I'll be alright. Thank you sir." Claire reached into her bag and pulled out a smaller bag full of the credits she owned him and handed it too him. "You be careful out there." Claire waved good bye and stepped out. Claire slept though the approach so she didn't get to see the bay from the outside but hearing about it she could guess this ship was massive and judging how big the docking bay was, she was right. Claire grinned and shook her head. "You never cease to amaze me Matsu." Claire said to herself as casually walked to the door.

The large garden ship was impressive but she wasn't against many of the things while sitting there in the garden. The jako beast pups of Toola she had able to play with the pups and raise them here. "THank you and welcome." The real question was where to go with the padawan and bring some more attention to herself while the jedi mastrer had many things prepared going over the trees within the ship. A smile on her face before she was rising up and pulling a piece of the fruit over to her. Half of it to eat and the other to save walking around when they jumped to hyperspace. "The garden is a wondeful place to relax and meditate. I have been trying to gather the most rare and unique species within the galaxy to benefit the jedi to study." She looked at the shadow root that was growing here before she looked a the padawan. "How have you been adjusting to your new life within the order padawan?"

 

[Claire Ouron]

The young girl smiled. "It's been great so far. Master Shmi has invited me into a training group called the Veermok Clan and I love it there."

Ah now that was something good to hear as she sat there thinking on it and... well if there ws a master it was Shmi. She was smart but not afriad to lift her saber to defend others while still maintaining the wisdom to see when and if it is needed force. More then enough for the jedi master to respect her. "Master Shmi is a skilled jedi and her clan you can learn a lot from." Starting to move around the interior while the ship was heading out the jedi master claspedher hands behind her back smiling to herself. "What have you learned so far from her?"

 

[Claire Ouron]

Claire nodded and dropped her bag, only to pick it up again with the force without having to close her eyes or focus as intensely as she used too. After she was done showing off she grabbed the bag again. "We've been focusing on force powers for the most part. We've been doing some combat training but I'm not really that good at it... and honestly I don't really like it that much."

"Combat is not for everyone and even I do not enjoy it in truth. I know how to do it and am good in some ways but I do not find reason to enjoy it. I much prefer working in my lab and researching in the archives." She did look at what the padawan was able to do while listening tot he ship as it jumped to hyperspace and towards the other worlds. WHile she did have a small look she didn't have to check the coordinates again before speaking. "Though it is good to see your lessons progressing. We will have some fun now when on an adventure I think." THere was a larger smile while Matsu was walking towards the edge with the walls and opening them to reveal equipment that could be used. "Now that you are a jedi though you can get some of the newer equipment we have been working on." She withdrew a gold Sasori Circlet with a small look and checked it before digging around for a pair of Murr Earrings and finally finding the Sigil of Hope that she could use. "We have several other pieces and the look for everything is simple but it is jedi equipment so the lightside of the force will aid you."

 

[Claire Ouron]

Claire noticed the small items Matsu had. "Oh those are pretty. Are they like those shields you were making at the temple?"

Looking at her with a smile. "They are something like the amulet, more focused and less of a skilled item to use though. The earrings are made to provide calmness and clarity while increasing a jedi's connection to the force while the necklace protects them from mental influence and force attacks with some focus. It is a useful thing to have for yourself while the circlet creates a shield that can protect you much like armor on worlds." All of it together though with a couple of other things and you could have a very nicely skilled set of equipment that provided a lot of stuff with very little added weight.

 

[Claire Ouron]

"Whoa. That's amazing..." Claire was always impressed by things Matsu made. "So... You're letting me borrow these?"

[member="Matsu Ike"]

"If you wish to borrow them, or keep them. Really I have been working to make them and there are plenty of them." She said it with a smile on her face while looking over the things while the ship was traveling through hyperspace and the small jako pups were moving around. her feet. Matsu picked one up and was petting him while she looked over running her fingers through the hairs with a look at the padawan.

 

[Claire Ouron]

"Aww. Who are these little guys?" Claire smiled as she leaned towards the pups.

Matsu looked at them and offered a smile for it. "Oh they are just some pets we found. Jako beasts are adorable when they are small but when they are older they can be very loyal and protective." She was petting the one as they continued. "Now tell me padawan what do you know of Rhen Var?"

 

[Claire Ouron]

"Uhhhh... It's a.... planet?" Claire shrugged. At least she wasn't wrong.

Matsu looked at the girl blankly for a moment before snickering a little and she couldn't hold it in. As much as she wanted to suppress it but the girl was good. "Yes... yes it is a plane but there is a lot of history there and the jedi have done a lot on the world. Where we are going there are crystals, special crystals that resonate with the lightside within you."

 

[Claire Ouron]

"Interesting..." Claire started to get curious about this planet. The history here must of been amazing to study, maybe she'd look it up back at the temple. Claire noticed that Matsu made a point of mentioning the Crystals here. "So is that where we're going? To get those crystals?"

[member="Matsu Ike"]

 

[Matsu Ike]

[member="Claire Ouron"]

"Yes we are, fora padawan the crystals can be an important part of their journey as a jedi.... but finding a solari crystal can help a jedi monitor themselves. THe lightside energies of it will ensure they always walk the path of the lightside." She was looking at the world when they arrived. She was looking at her researchers that were heading out with things to get them more information.

 

[Claire Ouron]

Claire took a moment to admire the planet, She traveled though space once before but she mostly slept and cried her way though it so she never actually saw a planet from the outside before. It was a amazing sight. "It's beautiful..."

Now that was a sight to see, the wonder on a padawans face the first time seeing a planet as they were heading down. The diferent sections of her work coming out while matsu gathered what equipment she had for this. Looking over some of the things the padawan could do while she spoke. "It is and just wait until you see the surface."

 

[Claire Ouron]

Claire was excited by the sound of that. She could only imagine what the planet looked like.

The ship was heading down and the images o the screen of the icy tundra below them was everywhere. Stretching out to the mountains and veins of gold were in the snow where the crystals grew showing under the sun. The ship bringing itself in next t the temple and touching down in a large ara almost fitted to it out of the way while the docking clamps came and took them in. The ruins and newly rebuilt academy were there providing plenty they could work on here still.... but the map room she had built on the spire was perfect for teaching. "Get your stuiff and lets begin."
