Vu’thari’s Condo
Worlport
Ord Mantell
Vu’thari leaned against the railing of his balcony with a mug of spirits in his right hand. Dressed in simple trousers and breaches, the twi’lek stared out into the night, eyes shifting between the myriad of lights illuminating the Worlport skyline. Taking another pull from his spirits, he stared out pondering the changes that had been wrought in the last few months. To boot, he had just returned from a scheduled meeting with Commander Ion, but instead Jedi Master Leah Reach was there in his place. She was broken when he met her, all the weight that was thrust upon her was crashing down, but she was bound by duty to correct some of the mistakes she admitted to making. She was a friend and a Jedi Knight who was finding her way, just like the rest of the Jedi Masters…including Vu’thari.
Leah asked him to come back to the Jedi Order within the Galactic Alliance. It was a decision that weighed heavily on him, but in the end, he told Leah he would do it. She knew why Vu’thari left. She knew why he could not remain. However, he knew that others in the Galactic Alliance would not understand. Terms would be batted around like “traitor” and “coward”, but he did not care. Those words would come from those who did not know him and his character. Those who knew him best would know he would not have left unless it was serious. In the end, it did not matter to Vu’thari what others would think of him when he returned…his return was about more than them.
Shifting his weight as he leaned against the railing, the twi’lek took another sip from his broad mug. The door to the condominium opened and Ayasha came in. He sensed her anxiousness, knowing that he was supposed to have a meeting with Hugo tonight. She would want to know how it went, but now the imminent conversation would take an unexpected turn with the arrival of Leah and what she asked of Vu’thari—and what his answer was…
“I'm out here!”
Vu’thari knew she could sense him, but he wanted her to come out there with him. In truth, he didn’t know if Ayasha would come with him or not back to the Galactic Alliance. It would be a tough road for any member of Jedi Covenant—but then again, this was a tough road…
As she slid up next to him, he looked over at her and revealed, “Hugo was a no show. Leah came instead…”
