Caedyn Arenais had been in his office looking over the Enclave's latest review of technological assets displayed upon his private terminal when there was a noticeable shift in the Force around him, a change that quickly followed by the sensation of another presence growing nearer to the Enclave. The Jedi Knight slowly reclined back into his seat and turned himself away from the desk as he took a pause, wishing to better understand the new arrival, one who felt to be shrouded in the Dark Side of the Force, Caedyn unable to put a face to the newcomer's aura.
The Temple Guard were trained to defend and protect those within the Jedi establishment, yet they were once students like all others and before they had sworn themselves to the Jedi Guard, they had been trained to respect life in all forms, regardless of origin or background. As such, the actions of
Darth Petrichor
would determine the response of the Temple Guard, and as the lone Sith had appeared showing no sign of violence as of yet, the Guard would not attack. It was not the Jedi way.
"
You will await Master Arenais here" one of them informed the Darth, while another departed the group for the Enclave's entrance, seeking to inform Caedyn of the appearance of the Sith. Of course, the presence of Darth Petrichor was unmistakably not of the Jedi, and thus Caedyn would be found already on his way through the main hall of the Enclave towards the entrance itself, with every intention of meeting this surprise visit with the greatest of care.
When the Jedi Knight did reach the entrance, stepping out into the cool open-air and also the view of the Sith, he bore the
apparel typical of a Jedi. His tunic a mix of greys and browns, while the darker robe draped around him in his every step down the few permacrete stairs that led out into the open courtyard at the front of the Enclave grounds where their guest was being closely watched. His
Lightsaber magna-locked to his belt, and remaining there until the Sith deemed the need otherwise.
Taking a moment to gauge the surrounding tree's on the edge of the Enclave's courtyard, the Jedi Knight sought to determine the truth in that the Sith truly had come alone. "
Thank you, my friends, you may carry on with your duties" Caedyn informed the Guardsman, unable to pick up on the presence of any others. His eyes would soon land upon the lone Sith, studying the other in silence as he allowed the Guard to leave them before looking to delve into conversation with the potential threat looming on their doorstep.
"
The opportunity to meet face to face with one such as yourself, and not find a blade being drawn upon me, is quite rare....-I'm sure you would understand the caution of the Enclave Guard, given your visit here today" Caedyn spoke to Darth Petrichor, first seeking to explain the actions of the Jedi who had stood in his way as if it required any explanation.
"
I am Caedyn Arenais" He introduced himself, lowering his head however never taking his eyes off of the Sith Lord,
"And you have my undivided attention..." he concluded, falling quiet, however, it was the words unspoken that no doubt the Sith would know. The caution, the threat of their kind and the years of fighting between Jedi and Sith. This was not a situation to be taken lightly and Caedyn would not let his guard down when the lives of those within the Enclave depended on Jedi alike himself and the Guard he had dismissed.
"
What can I do for you?".
