Veino Garn
Saaraai-Kaar
Veino Garn was dead. There had even been a state funeral on Susefvi and a private one in the Jensaarai encalve where his armor lay interred in a stone sarcophagi among his predecessors and beside his first Master. Oh, the funeral had been grand with delegates from the long dead Army of Light and Fel Imperium, representatives from several of the various Jedi orders, and some shady criminal looking folks who were whispered to be with the Underground. The Alliance gave him a funeral with full military honors for his service.
But he was alive. He had returned from the depths of his own consciousness that had melded with the Netherworld, known only to a few. But he had been different. Not the man they would have remembered. Something had happened in there- something he couldn't remember- but he had changed. All he knew was that he was not who he was supposed to be and that the Force was eluding him in ways he didn't understand. Veino had lost part of himself- the part that had made him Veino Garn, knight errant. His abilities and memories had changed- no longer was he the warrior he had once been. He remembered his life lessons and what he had learned, and now with the opportunity to start afresh, perhaps... the time had come for a different life.
Not one of armies and battles, no. One that had been him at his purest. A wanderer acting on his own for the good of those he encountered with nothing but himself, his lightsaber, and the Force. No back up. No fancy weapons. No armor. Those things had been all that he needed until he started adding more.
His first stop had been the far side of the galaxy. He had never gotten involved in Silver Sanctum space, so few would know him there, except comrades long-ago from the Jedi Order. He would take that risk and assess where he would go from there.
But these were all thoughts replaying through his mind as the ship settled with a hiss on the Voss space port. This would be a good place to start this- whatever would be. He'd gone back to the basics. Lightweight, quick drying travel pants, shirt of the same material, and a many-pocketed great-coat and a small pack. Just another grizzled old spacefarer looking for work.
A crowd bustled around him, attending their business and hardly sparing him a glance. Security guards patrolled- giving him more than a glance at times. Veino just smiled back.
It was all so overwhelming, so confusing. He couldn't feel things the way he used to. His empathy had entropied along with his Force connection and it was like being blind. The people in a corner? What were they feeling? Thinking? He couldn't sense any of that anymore and it was off-putting. But there was also something soothing about it.
But first, he needed to do some research on the Force. A quick hail and taxi ride later and he was over near the Silver Jedi Temple, slinging his pack on his back and striding towards it.
"Hello!" He called out as he approached, "I would like to research in the library! Can anyone help with that?" He needed research on the Netherworld and how it affected people.
