The journey home

[Jalua Solast]

Landra was sat in the shuttle, going over diplomatic planning for another visit to a Coalition neighbour, when the pilot issued on the yellow alert. A soldier from the Royal Guards came to her and told her about an intruder being detected by scanners on board. Landra nodded and remained in her seat, they could all hear slight footsteps approaching.

[Caedus Sadow]

He wasl a mid-sized, well built man. He adorned an emerald Mutukai robe. (ancient jedi faction).

The footsteps approached the main hold of the ship. Caedus Sadow entered the room with Royal guards on either side of him and his hands were bound in force cuffs.

"My Lady..." Caedus bowed steeply before meeting her gaze. His eyes were peacful and serene.

ooc: i need to borrow two of your guards

IC:
Guard 1: "We found him in the cargo hold Lady Landra. To be honest, it was a wonder he was alive. Temperatures get rather cold down there during hyperspace travel."

Guard 2: " Didn't take us long to figure out just how he managed to do so. We found this on him." He held out a hilt of some sort.

[Jalua Solast]

Landra was shocked when she saw the lightsaber, she recognised it like the guards had, after all, the Empress was a Jedi Knight. With his robes, she realised that he was indeed a Jedi, and she waved her hand to have the cuffs removed, which the guards complied with extremely easily. Landra invited the Jedi Knight down to the seat next to her. "It is a honour to have you with us here, Master Jedi" Landra said politely, using the few correct terms she knew about dealing with the Jedi Order.

[Caedus Sadow]

Caedus inclined his head once more before taking his seat. "My name is Caedus Sadow milady. I come here to you now with word from the Jedi Order and with counsel. I trust General Delso has informed you of our intentions?" he asked politely.

[Jalua Solast]

"Indeed he has" Landra responded, pondering how the Jedi Order got so involved in this. She let him continue, she wanted to find out what she could before responding much further.

[Caedus Sadow]

"The Jedi Order wishes to express it's sympathies toward the Empress. It is true that the council and her majesty have had their differences, but in light of recent events the council forstalls any further judgment until this conflict has subsided." One of the Royal gaurds was making his way through the main hold and took a moment to hand Caedus back his lightsaber. Sadow took it with a courtious nod. "The Order feels that it cannot sit by and watch anymore. We now offer our services fully to the Coalition and Mandalorian Empires." He spoke quietly looking at her agian finally, anticipating a response.

[Jalua Solast]

Landra was surprised by this, but the pilot had came out of hyperspace once an intruder was detected and now the Royal Palace wanted to know why they had stopped. Hearing the distant exchange of communication, Landra indicated for Caedus to follow her. She entered the cockpit and took a seat, and activated the communication terminal, giving her full control. "This is Landra Daros, I wish to speak with the Empress if she is available". "Yes Ma'am" said the Lieutenant who visibly began to make some urgent calling. After a couple of minutes, Jalua's figure stood in front of the pilots, Landra and Caedus. "This is Jalu- Caedus? Is that you?" Jalua Solast stuttered at the sight of a familiar face.

OOC: Jalua is a Jedi and only recently inherited the throne, so i took it she'd know most of the Jedi, even if she didn't know them well.

[Caedus Sadow]

ooc: yes i think i remimber this

"Yes your majesty..." Caedus smiled pulling his hood back. "It does me good to see an old friend in these dark times, but there will be more time for pleasantries later." He took a moment and pulled a datapad from his pocket, inserting it into the mainframe. "What you are about to see are terms of our alliance, as well as that of the Mandalorians. These short notes, however, are but a fraction of what is taking place here. The council requests a meeting of the four powers at a discreet location." He stood quietly awaiting her response.

[Jalua Solast]

Jalua looked straight at her cousin Landra, "How was your talks?", "They went how we expected them to" Landra immediately replied and Jalua nodded, silent for a few moments. "We have a small base i think you remember Landra, take them there when they are ready. I will arrive after and we will have our talks". Jalua bowed her head to the Jedi Knight before her figure disappeared. Landra breathed in and sighed, much happier than she had been, it looked like her diplomatic mission had just became a great success in her cousin's eyes.

With the Empress' message now ended, the captain of the shuttle turned his head back to look at Landra to his left. "Where to Ma'am?" he asked quietly. "Gyndine" she responded calmly, glancing at Caedus. The pilot nodded and gently rose the lever up, letting the shuttle continue on it's route.

[Caedus Sadow]

Sadow smiled. "I shall inform the council milady."

Caedus stood, inclined his head, and then made his way to one of the guest quarters.
