Aela Talith
The Righteous
Borleias
It was a planet that was not famous. Nor was it a planet of much use.
At least not anymore.
This world had once been a fortress, a staging area for war. Many different factions had used it. The New Republic, the Yuuzhan Vong, even the Galactic Alliance. All of them at one point or another had owned and operated on Borleias, all of them had used it as a staging area for an attack on the galactic center, Coruscant.
The current Galactic Republic was doing no such thing, and that was why father had chosen this world as their home. Aela Esmae Shamalain Talith, now fifteen years old wandered among the markets of one of the small fishing villages that rimmed the main continent of Borleias.
The people here were nice enough.
No one was threatening, no one was evil, people were simply living their lives. It was calming, really, and it made Aela feel good about her home. This wasn't the first time she had been to one of these villages, but it was the first time she had come here on her own. Father and Mother had given her permission to finally go off by herself, and she had done so almost gleefully.
A few years ago she would have balked at the idea, but now? Now it was exciting. She was half a world away from the house, and all on her own.
She offered a rare smile to a passing woman and her child, receiving one in return. The strap of her messenger bag bit into her shoulder as she shifted slightly, turning down the market street that smelled of freshly cooked fish and seared nerf.
This really was exciting.
