The four Dathmarian siblings were standing in their usual formation; Lyni in the center with Feral on her right, Maul on her left, and Savage behind her. It was a quiet formation, one they fell into as if it were second nature to expect danger from the world around them. Senator Amidala watched the young woman in their midst, she was quite impressive.
Senator Churchi looked Senator Amidala and both women nodded, as if agreeing to take the chance. Then they walked forward, "Hello." Four straight faces turned to look at them with varying degrees of surprise and suspicion in their eyes. Amdala continued, "We were wondering how well you were fitting in."
Bowing her head Lyni answered, "As well as can be expected." Seeing that the other women didn't understand she explained, "We are Dathamiran, no place is easy to be but that is to be anticipated."
Watching her Amidala answered, "Is that why you are working so hard to promote rights?"
Lyni studied the human than the Pandorian in return, "It is my duty to speak for those who do not have a voice and defend those who cannot fight for themselves." A slight movement of her hand to include the Zabarks around her, "We take it very seriously."
Amidala reached out her hand, "Padme Amdiala."
Lyni shook it and then released to look at Churchi who swallowed under the combined gaze of the Dathamrians before extending her hand, "Riyo Churchi."
"Lyni," came the reply. Seeing the confusion, "I have no other name."
A nod of the head in return from Churchi as Amidala asked "Is there a reason for that?"
Releasing the Pandorians hand Lyni answered, "Under a fifth of my planets population are even considered for a second name. Why should I have one?"
Studying her in this new light Amidala answered, "Good point, there should be more equality." Her audience agreed.
