Ask Plot A Fork in the Road

[Adenn Rytt]

Adenn had spent at least an hour tending to Rowa He had removed the restraints placed on him by the jedi but would remain somewhat weary. a Force weilder wounded and confused might feel defensive and aggressive. he was sure that The man would be out for some time but he had obviously overestimated the wound inflicted on his head as the man came back to consciousness quickly. he was confused, as expected but only asked questions in an attempt to make sense of where he was. Adenn spent little time in Replying;
"Youve been caught in a cave-in. youre terribly wounded. please, try not to remove your bandages or move your wounded leg."
Adenn gave an injection of bacta to the force user, helping to ease his pain and begin healing his wounds.

 

[Etr Wyara]

L'ewvan was ashamed of his actions, he could not bear to see what his greed had done to the man. he would try and turn away but Adenn insisted he looked at what he had caused.
"This man could lose his life. You could have lost your life. I could have lost my life. 6000 years behind our clan erased by your greed. I am ashamed.. I am disgusted and you will look at the harm you have done."
his father would command as he looked on. His stomach churned the entire hour until the man pulled through, giving him some relief. His father , However, remained angry.
"Slanar kaniya bat meg gar ganar borarir. Ni ganar ganar luubid be gar par jii."
[Go an meditate on what you have wrought. I have had enough of you for now.]
was his final command before he left for a part of the cave where he sat in silence.

 

[Rowa]

Rowa groaned, feeling his leg aching after they did all they could to reinsert it after its dislocation. He shook his head, hearing the child regretting whatever his decision he made. He watched while his head finally cleared and his mind was back to full faculties as he heard the older man tell the boy to go meditate.

"It wasn't his fault." he said as the man finished scolding, "Probably the fault was mine." he admitted, his head hanging low while staring down in what he assumed to be the direction they came from to escape the collapse, "I let my anger get the better of me. I was just...so confused. Maybe even desperate to give the Jedi what they wanted. I don't know. So please don't be so hard on him. I don't even think meditation would be any good." he paused when he noticed both Mandalorians look at him, "What? You told him to go meditate." he said, wondering what he did now...

 

[Adenn Rytt]

Adenn was genuinely impressed at the Aruetii and his understanding of Mando'a. He cocked his head;
"Thats a fairly adept understanding of our Language. how did you manage to learn it... only a Mandalorian could teach the tongue and none but the most depraved would teach Aruetii."
Possibilities began running through his head, he wondered if somewhere there was a Dar'manda... hell even a group of Dar'Manda'e, teaching Mando'a. he also thought of Perhaps Enslaved Mandalorians forced to teach at the risk of torture.. Or he was a fallen Mandalorian himself... there were other theories but few more came so prominently to mind. Adenn Felt a twinge of anger at the possibilities hed conjured up...
"Ill ask again. where did you learn that language."

 

[Etr Wyara]

L'ewvan begam to feel very concerned for Their patient who, depending on his answer, might need a Mortician rather than a doctor. His Adoptive father was not fond of Dar'manda who disrespected the already fragile people of the Mando'ade.. He found a place well beyond the two, in hopes of not incurring further wrath from Adenn.

 

[Rowa]

Rowa stared blankly at Adenn as Mandalorian demanded how he learned their tongue, "I...I thought you were speaking in Basic." he said, now even more confused before recalling the figure, "Wait, there was another one of you!" he said looking around, "Another one wearing the same garb you have! He uh...Had full kit, with some kind of sigil on his back! Where did he go! He disappeared when we found you" he said as he looked at the two mandalorians...

[Adenn Rytt]

"No, it was just us, vod. theres no Mandalorian like that. Either you hit your head hard or.. you may have been in contact with a spector. "
Adenn thought for a moment. his ability to know Mando'a may have vome from a supernatural encounter and this "Other Mandalorian" must have his reasons.
"youre seeing him must mean something. did this spector say something or do something?"

 

[Rowa]

Rowa shook his head, placing his hand where the bandages were and thought, "I-" he began to try and recall him, "He...He was dressed like you, only it was Silver, Gold, and Blue. His helmet was different...other than the T-Visor" he said sheepishly, "He just kept walking. Then...he..." he kept trying to remember, wondering if it was him just going mad or something else, "He turned and...Said..."

He attempted to recall, remembering the same figure in his dreams. Is this madness? Is this the Dark Side punishing me for dotting on what that Jedi said or-

"Because you are a good Person" he recalled from Inabe's voice.

"Stupid boy!" came Xerxes Voice without warning.

Rowa began to become agitated, his mind becoming a choir of Inabe and Xerxes voices along with Oren's voice of redemption overlaping, the tunnel began to slightly shudder once more before it stopped with the utterance of a word from the Mysterious figure once more...

"Ad", they spoke, Rowa's mind quiet once more...

"Ad..." Rowa repeated out loud, "That world sounds so familiar...what does that mean?" he asked, half to himself and half to the Mandalorian...

 

[Adenn Rytt]

"Ad... child.. Very well then, I will take you on as a student. it was fate that I should have saved you this day, Ad'ika and that spector has called you to the path of the Mando'ade."
he drew in the dirt symbols with his hand;
"Silver is for the redemption you must undergo. you follow the Dar'jettii ways, but I will free you of their curse.
Gold: vengeance; no child comes to the Dar'jettii by his own choice. they cannot create, only corrupt. a latent will they detect in their midst is one they will manipulate. that is their way and many have fallen for their lies. I will help you find vengeance against them in living a good life of virtue, duty and honor. not for your sake but for the sake of those whom you will come to love. for their can be no true love nor devotion without sacrifice.

Blue: Reliability. how easily it fades into black; justice. now hear this;
"gar malyasa'yr mar'eyir sto tor o'r a i'eumte haat ui o'r a ta'raysholan jehaat."
[you will find more justice in a single truth than in a thousand lies.]
the Dar'jettii believe their lies will bring them strength but there can only be true strength once weakness is known and to know weakness is to accept the truth that none can be perfected. and in that truth true justice can be known."
he took his helmet off and looked at the wounded man;
"As you are know, broken, it would be a great justice for me to dispatch you however If you let me, I can teach you true strength and make you into a man not seeking power but having it. will you accept my help?"

 

[Rowa]

Rowa stared at him for a moment, hearing the man interpreting his visions and the confusion somehow...began to fade away. He hung his head for a moment before he heard Inabe's words flutter into his mind once more, "You are a good person..."

A Good Person can learn right? He thought to himself as he looked back up to the man. Their eyes met and felt an understanding for one another as Rowa nodded to the Mandalorian, "Rowa...My name is Rowa" He said as he broke eye contact and leaned his head against the cave wall...That was when he felt it. The whisper once more as he looked deep into the cave. He felt the tickle along his spine, the whisper becoming more and more clear to him as he felt his hand instinctively reach out through the Force. Rowa felt the Force, in it's own strange way call to him. In the dark the trio would hear something crumbling from the wall. All froze as they waited, praying for some that the cave didn't collapse. Suddenly in the light of the heat lamp something glistened. To their surprise a small stone, no bigger than a gem, floated out of the darkness and into the palm of Rowa's hand. He looked at it for a moment, and almost instinctively a small smile came across his lips as he held the Khyber Crystal in his hand...

 

[Adenn Rytt]

adenn was impressed by the glow of the khyber which had revealed itself to Rowa, He had never seen it actually happen before.
"Well met Rowa, i am Adenn Rytt. The boy is my son, L'ewvan. I think you will prove to be a fine Mandalorian when all is said and done. "
his comm Lit up, a small message scrolled across the hologram before closing
"Right then"
Adenn said Rising;
"Its time to go. We are going to Naboo to meet with the pack."
he began to get the wounded Rowa ready to move and with the help of L'ewvan Managed to move the man out of the cave and onto the SpookyMistress.

 

[Rowa]

Rowa gave a nod as he was pulled up to walk. He gave a heavy groan of pain as the torn muscles in his leg made it very clear that it would be a while before he could walk well. He would be able to walk...but for now with just a limp. It was a struggle at first, but eventually he was able to rest on his busted leg without pain as they began moving through the cave.

"That way" suddenly spoke Rowa, stretching out with the Force to guide them out. It was as if the Cave finally decided to let them out, with Rowa on his part learning to let his anger subside and let his mind guide him as clearly as he could let it. The trek took a while, almost as if it were an hour at best as they went through the winding tunnels. It would have seemed to gone on forever had they not have seen the bright end of the tunnel in sight. They moved towards it, exiting into a bright light of morning air as they began to move out of the cave.

"So uh...Where are we going?!" asked Rowa before he looked up. His face scanning the sky until he saw something in the distance, "What's that?" he asked, pointing towards the sky and at the object flying over head. To Adenn it was unmistakable what it was...a Y-Wing Gunship...
