Jor Kvall
Ain't found a way to kill me yet
The rustling of sheets and shifting of the mattress was sure to wake [member="Lira Kros"]. Jor was an early riser, but never this early. The sun had not even begun to peek above the jagged, mountainous horizon outside when Kvall sat up from his pillow and hung his feet over the side of the bed. He looked over his shoulder once, past the faded battle scar on his collar, to see his betrothed still nestled between the blankets and pillows. Her hair masked her face, but it looked like she was still asleep. She may have heard Jor's adviser slip into their room in the early morning hours unannounced, which was indeed a rarity, and deliver faint whispers. Even if she didn't hear him slip on his boots, despite how delicately he tried, Jor figured she would probably notice the absence of his warmth under the sheets soon enough.
Perhaps he would be gone by then, though.
An over-tunic flung itself across his form as he stood up and moved to the door, where he would put on his armor outside. He didn't want to look back at Lira resting peacefully in bed, wholly out of envy. They said a Mandalorian always craves battle, and this coming battle he did crave... but they say a lot of things. He knew that if he told his betrothed where he was going, she would protest. Jor couldn't bear to add fuel to the fire of her anxiety or see her pained face, distraught at him leaving so close to their wedding day, so he simply would choose to omit information. The trouble was, it felt a lot more like lying than Jor had initially imagined.
He closed the door to their chambers beside him and sighed. Jor put aside the thoughts of a stillborn marriage to his best effort. His armor waited for him at his feet. He would need to be quick about assembling his arsenal if he was to have his ship prepared before dawn.
