Location: Hapes

A beautiful planet indeed, however the Wolf had not come to admire Hapes sights and aesthetic pleasures, he had come to deliver a 8 feet worth of Songsteel to Matsu Ike's door in return for Datacrons on the several force powers/forms he had specifically chosen. Force Drain, Force Stun, Force Fear, Force Destruction and Form Vapaad. He had chosen these abilities to aid him in combat and to avoid it as well. He walked through the halls of her house, the massive man trailing along the heap of metal that had been boiled down into a solid block to be reforged again. He trudged along, his white hair tied back in a pony tail beating against his back and the inside of his cloak. He arrived at his predestined location, awaiting the approval to enter. He knocked, a practical yet archaic means of alerting someone that you have arrived.

He was eager to learn, even as a master. He was eager to grow in power and such datacrons would help him with just that. "Master Ike, I have arrived with the songsteel." He called from behind her door. Silently yet eagerly awaiting the woman.

Now here was one thing that was interesting, mainly because... Matsu had heard of this boy. Well heard from Master Dragonsflame which should be taken with a grain of salt he had at times the tongue to diminish others for his own boastfulness and bluster. Or condemn others for what he saw as not being a paragon of the jedi like him Ijet or Watts. An impossible standard to hold one do as the jedi master checked the datacrons that had been requested of her and had her notes. Being able to explain to the templar the basis of several skills and how it was done when she hadn't really done it was not a bad way to go about something and the prize a piece of songsteel plus what he had already bid at the auction was invaluable. "Greetings master Callus."

"It's a pleasure." He remarked as he entered Matsu Ike's house, his long strides took him to the center of the room within seconds. "Do you have the datacrons I requested?" He asked, his bright yellow eyes lingering on her smaller form. Then they continued to flicker about the room, examining it for tactical analysis. The possibility of attack was always present, and therefore his combat ready mind was also always there. His body was always tense and ready to leap into action, however as of now his mind was focused on Matsu's reply. He had heard little to nothing of this woman, but he assumed she was knowledgeable.

Matsu looked at Astrian and gave and of her head while she spoke. "Yes I do and some notes that might be required. While disagree about sharing knowledge of the darkside I cannot stop it. Whether I tell you or not you'll look and at least with me you are getting it from a source that won't try and use you against your people." The jedi master stood there and brushed her robes a little before she ran a hand along the length of a small case. "Do you have all the songsteel?" There were other things but sh would bring the auctions bid from him up late r, the idea of personal favors meant little to her and she preferred having them for a purpose. Mainly the six things on the datapad she needed/wanted.

"There's a full crate of it, right outside. Song steel isn't particularly heavy, you won't have trouble transporting it." He pointed out, his eyes traveling from Matsu about the room, his eyes searching for the datacrons, five in total. Such knowledge was worth the song steel he didn't use anymore. He didn't know why Master Ike would want the songsteel, but that was none of his business. He was here to take what was promised and take his leave. "Everything else, that I gave in the auction should be delivered to you shortly. The six favours, you can ask of me at any time." He spoke, trudging about the room as he awaited Master Ikcto present him with the datacrons.

Matsu presented the case as she had it with the information for him, not too bad and as she had said. It was sfer coming from her then from others who might try and trick him. Offering a nod she looked to the crate with the song steel before speaking. "The six favors I require are simple enough. I have no rush required on them just forward to my contact on Hapes anything for safe keeping." Then Matsu held the datapad out and spoke offering a small grin. "I need a baby Rancor, a baby Krayt dragon or just the egg of one. Might be easier to transport. A Dathomiri energy bow, a couple of low grade roonstones, any notes you can give on the templars vaults and holocrons. Copies are not needed just for research purposes and a thorn of ryloth."

 

[Tathra Khaeus]

The Wolf nodded. "Right, I'll be sure to keep those in mind." He spoke taking the case from her and inspecting what was inside all four datacrons he had requested, excellent. "Thank you. I shall put these to good use." He responded, they were worth the songsteel. He had used it in many battles and it had served him well, but knowledge was power and he wanted more of it. "I'll try and collect this strange set of items through my travels. Though, I won't be going strictly out of my way to collect these things." He hoped he did not appear rude, but he still had his own priorities to attend to. "If there's nothing more to discuss, may I take my leave?" He inquired, taking a final glance at her as he moved towards the door. His bright yellow eyes dancing across her face, his stern expression exhibiting coldness. He looked like a dead man walking.

Matsu looked at Astrian and she spoke while her pupils dilated and her mind went over faces but more then that over records. "There is nothing more to say beyond I am sorry the jedi failed you Astrian, I looked at the transcripts from the council and it was foolishness from all sides." She only needed to look at it once to see and now with the large section of songsteel Matsu was smirking and ran a hand along the armor. Something like this would take time to really melt down and rework, with the armored suit she had gotten from Isley it would be an interesting thing.

 

[Tathra Khaeus]

"It's a thing of the past [member="Matsu Ike"], regardless you have my thanks." He gave her a nod of respect before leaving through her door. This was a successful transaction, he would learn all he could from the datacrons he had received today.

Matsu gave a bow to the former jedi and man as she returned and stored the songsteel, the favors would trickle in she was sure and a smirk played across her feet while she moved to the cockpit. "Then may the force be with you." The jedi master continued to secure everything while Astrian left and she set the course for Hapes. For Hanna and had a smile on her face.
