Jedi Temple
Coruscant
The Jedi temple, a place of peace and knowledge and the headquarters for the glorious Jedi Order. Within these hallowed halls resides some of the galaxy's most powerful beings, ancient artifacts, treasured knowledge, and, of course, well hidden secrets. Some of which would had best been left buried on whatever desolate planet they were found on. Knowledge containing information on almost anything in the known universe resided within these halls, and was easily accessible to those who were welcomed into this historic order of sages and warriors alike.
Meandering through the halls were a myriad of folk from different cuts of the galaxy's fabric. Humans, the enslaved Twi' lek, the aquatic Nautolen, and the brave Zabrak were only a few of these species. All walks of life could be found here, and each with their own skillset to assist the Order in its tasks. The Jedi Order's main mission was to defend the Galaxy from the dark side of the force, and all those who threatened to destroy the peace that they had worked to build.
One such of these Jedi, could be found in waiting outside the large wooden doors of the High Council chambers. The individual had donned the traditional jedi robes and tunic for this occasion, for to be summoned forth to the council was nothing to scoff at. These high ranking individuals had normally kept to their own group and discussed important matters among themselves.
"Whatcha thinkin about, Master?"
The sudden question surprised the robed figure. Turning, they faced a younger Twi'lek girl, a Padawan- his Padawan. The girl's light blue skin glowed softly with the sunlight pouring in through the large windows set on either side of them and the large doors leading into the council chambers. Slightly darker stripes rode horizontally down her semi-long Lekku, tentacle-like appendages extending from her head that were unique to the Twi'lek race. Bright amethyst eyes set in a soft face stared expectantly back, her small, dark blue lips raised in a smirk.
With gloved hands, the individual removed their hood to reveal the face of a man, a few years older than his Padawan. Tanned skin stood in contrast to the blackened hair on his head, messily cut and with little attention paid to it. Bluish eyes stared down at the girl, his height just barely two feet over hers. A small scar ran under the length of his jaw, a painful memory from his past life.
"This meeting, Komie. You know just as well as I do how rare it is to get a summons from the Council. Especially from one with such renown as Master Windu." He replied, the smile he had falling slightly as he turned to look out the window and into the bustling city of Coruscant. "Why me? I am only a Knight after all"
Komie shrugged and stood next to her master, her teacher, and friend. With a sigh, she shook her head. "Wish I knew, might have given us time to prepare." Before she could speak again, the wooden doors creaked open behind them, causing the duo to turn towards the entrance. "Well," The knight began. ", guess we're about to find out."
Without another word, the two strode through the now open doors and into the council room, where the masters would surely be waiting for them.
