Darron Wraith
Honor | Duty | Courage
Yavin IV
Long, blonde locks whipped across his face idly as the wind took them where it pleased. Standing atop the old Jedi Praxeum, the Jedi Master simply looked out over the moon before him. The local flora had flourished in the years since the Gulag Virus had pushed away all sentient life from the planet. The surrounding trees had grown above the old temples used by the Jedi hundreds of years ago after the destruction of the second death star. Cries and calls from the local fauna filled his ears as he took in all the sensations with every one of his senses. It was quite overwhelming to be on a world so flush with nature, even if the ruins of the past served as reminders of what to avoid in the future. A small smile crossed his face as he took in the last few moments of peace and quiet before he got to work on the job at hand.
There was a student to teach.
Not really a student though, Serorth Ur-Rahn was a Knight. Although a new one at that, he had even been trained by Darron's former pupil and now lover. Yes, Rosa did a wonderful job on his training from what I heard. It's why I invited him here, to further his education. Much work would be done today, although he doubted the new Knight had any idea as to what that meant. The invitation he had sent had been brief, and the shuttle had been devoid of any company save for possibly Rosa and the pilot. The world they where on wasn't used by anyone anymore, and that's precisely why it had been chosen for this skirmish. If that's even what it would be called, more like practicing the art of survival.
"Force guide me to do the right thing today, and I hope he is ready."
The GrandMaster fiddled with the two cortosis greaves that covered his forearms for a moment. A quick look over showed that his golden, durasteel breastplate was strapped tightly, and that his belt had all the necessary tools for today. His twin, electrum plated lightsaber hilts hung idly, bouncing against his legs with ever shit of his weight. The simple fabric of his black pants was a stark contrast to the combat boots he wore. Darron was an armored Jedi, although lightly at that. A thinker by nature, and a warrior by circumstance. His ascension through the Order had been rife with tragedy, and it had taken him off the road of diplomat he had wanted to go on when he was a young child. Now a tall, heavily muscled warrior, skilled in all disciplines of the Force. He was a changed man, but a better one for all the pain he had experienced. Most would have wilted under it all.
He stood a Jedi, through and through.
Not even thirty years old, though that was by fate, not choice or biological design. He had been frozen for two decades, the man looking out over the jungle had often been called the Right Jedi for the Wrong Time. It seemed through other's machinations he had been placed in the right time, even if it had been at the expense of him being frozen for twenty years. Darron had assimilated well within the Order again, and his rise to GrandMaster had brought him love and happiness. Though, he knew the enemies of the Republic were waiting and planning. So he wouldn't be caught unaware, a plan had been formed and this was the culmination of the idea. The final link in the chain he would use to wrap around the throat of the Sith.
A whisper in his ear hinted at the footsteps echoing up the steps to the top of the massive structure he was standing on. His guest, pupil, and future teammate had arrived.
"Greetings Seroth Ur-Rahn. Jedi Knight of the Order I lead, I am Darron Wraith. I'm sure you know my rank." The GrandMaster turned to face the man coming towards him. At 6'5 he stood nearly a head over the man, but physical size meant little in combat. That much the Jedi Master knew, and he had seen that maxim stand true through years of training and warfare. A gloved hand of durasteel went out to be shook. "I trust your travels went well, do you have any questions? I know you weren't told much."
