The temple sported multiple hangars, each suited to a specific need. The first hangar, adjacent to the temple, was meant for the public, whether they be guests or on business relations. The second, located within the temple itself, housed the ships of resident and staff of the temple, requiring special clearance to enter. The third, located underground, was a military hangar, sporting starfighters and various other warships which could be prepped and launched in record time, as there were always a handful of Jedi on duty in case of an emergency. This hangar sported an iris hatch in the ceiling, through which the ships would travel.

He made his way toward the entry point from the hangar to the rest of the temple, and once there, he disconnected and removed his helmet from the rest of his Flight EVA suit, and proceeded to seek out a member of the Jedi who would grant him an audience and listen to his proposal. Gods and Force willing, the third time would be the charm as he'd get to add another world to the precious few, so far, that would be apart of what he had in mind. |

When a familiar name came across the security mainframe of the Jedi Temple I'm immediately intrigued by what might be going on. So being the curious person that I am as soon as landing clearance is granted I move around the small maintenance bay I had commandeered as a workshop/office gathering up a number of small gadgets and gizmos, tossing them into the many pockets of my mechanic's jumpsuit as I go. After a brief hesitation I leave most of my weapons where they are laid out on a table against one wall. The scars of the Sith attack are still fresh in my mind, even if the building is new, but I had the shards should anything turn. I had no expectation of a need for violence today so I make my way out into the restricted corridor that connects the resident and public hangar bays, making my way towards the public hangar. Emerging from a secure door at one end of the hangar I watch the starfighter make it's way down. As the man begins to look around I approach. Having left my blue robes and lightsabers behind I looked far more like an old mechanic than a Jedi Master. My now fully grey hair and beard somewhat disheveled after hours of work and sweat seemed to go nicely with the grease stained multi-pocketed tan jumpsuit that I had favored for years. Meeting the man's eyes with my own ice blue ones I greet him with my usual half-smile and offer forward the flask from my belt. "A bit heavily armed for a diplomat ain't ya?" My voice takes on the inflextion of a backwater planet as I gesture toward his starfighter. I'm not totally sure why I decide to go with an accent but hey if you're going to play the part you might as well go the whole way. It was possible that the man would recognize me, but I had had minimal personal interaction with him over the years and all of those times had been as a younger man with brown hair and a much better kept beard, plus lightsabers and robes.

Riddick approaches, stopping a mere, but respectable few paces away. "A man of war makes for the best diplomat... We know what will happen if our efforts there should fail." Riddick pauses, letting the words settle in as he pulls out a small travel humidor, and from it a petit corona cigar for himself, and offers Mike one as a small gesture of friendship. "It has been a while, Mike. How are you?"

I could argue the point about what makes the best diplomat, but I avoid philosophical debates about war whenever possible, too much effort involved in those things. Accepting the offered cigar with my left hand I once again hold out the flask toward him, assuming he hadn't noticed me offering it when I first spoke. Indeed it has. So what brings you around to these parts? I figured the man had arrived to talk to the grandmaster, I also knew the grandmaster was a little busy at the moment with personal business. While I wasn't a permanent resident of Felucia, I was by some odd twist of fate a member of the Jedi High Council and perhaps could help, assuming he had indeed come looking for help with something.

"I have a proposition for you, and our mutual compatriots. I have already had a word with the Corellians, and they are on board with the idea, and we are trying to gather more to the cause. Perhaps we could gather a few more to hear out the details of what I have in mind." He took a draw of my cigar just as he finished presenting the reason for his visit, trying not to blow smoke in the wrong direction. |

Waiting patiently for Mike's reply, the two men enjoy their smokes by the smoke pit of the hangar.

*The Gladiator entered the hangar at a slow pace, its engines roared as the repolsar lifts kicked on. The landing struts groaned some under the weight of the vessel. With one final roar of protest, the engines powered down, leaving only the sounds of the ship settling in.*
*Ellie descended the leading ramp to the hangar floor. She was dressed in slimmed down black and yellow besker'gam was scarred, scraped and worn. Under her armor she wore dark brown cargo pants, black combat boots, a black tshirt with a long sleeved armorweave shirt underneath. Ellies left arm was adorned with a krayt dragon tattoo starting from her wrist to her elbow. Two heavy blaster pistols hung loosely on her hip, next to her helmet and lightsaber.*
*She took in her surroundings for a minute. The last time she had been on this planet, she had landed at the base and not this new temple. This made her wonder just how long she had been gone on her adventure, or if things had just progressed quickly since then. She readjusted the fingerless glove on her left hand and gathered her thoughts as she waited. Most of those thoughts were on the people still in her ship, younglings to be exact, and exactly how to thoroughly explain what was going on with what limited information she had. All she could do now was hope for the best.*

*The low rumble of the ships engines, followed by the shudder of the vessel touching down, woke Soniee. She rubbed her tired eyes and rolled off the couch she was sleeping on. Still half asleep, she put on her black combat boots, before grabbing her light brown tunic that matched her cargo pants, and put it on over her gray tshirt. Shaking away the last of the sleep, she made her way through the ship and down the loading ramp. Soniee stopped beside Ellie and gave a yawn, before looking up at the woman she was cloned after.* "So...this is Felucia?"
*The girl looked about the hangar and noticed how everything looked newer. She wondered about this, since Ellie told her the place had been here for a while.* "This place doesn't look that old."

*There was something of a renewed vigor in Aerandir's movements as he journeyed from the Residential Towers to the hangar. A small smile never left his face after he left Morgan and Roma in their new quarters to rest. His child was home at last, and he was now a grandfather; few of his days matched how happy a day this was. It didn't even matter he had potentially-unpleasant business to attend to in the hangar.
Of course, he knew about the arrival of Riddick. There was also Ellie Ordo, who'd asked to meet with him. It was easy to spot both once he entered the hangar, but Riddick was chatting with Mike. Deciding to leave them be for the moment, he made his way towards the Ordo ship, greeting Ellie with the same smile he'd left the towers with.* "Aliit'alor Ordo, good to see you, hope I didn't butcher that." *Smiling to the little girl beside her, he said,* "Hello there."
*Almost immediately after greeting the child, his eyes darted back and forth between her and Ellie, the resemblance uncanny.*

*Ellie gave Soniee a quick glance before returning her gaze to the hangar.* "Yes, this is Felucia. This temple is relatively new, the old base was damaged during a Sith raid." *She didn't go into details, at least not now anyway, for her attention was drawn by the arrival of Master Calmcacil heading their way.*
"Grand master Calmcacil, I'm glad you could meet with me." *Ellie greeted the Master with a bow of her head. A half hearted smile graced her lips when he called her Aliit'alor.* "No, you didn't butcher it, but...I'm no longer Aliit'alor, so just Ellie will do. This.." *She placed her left hand on Soniee's head and ruffled her hair some. Aerandir would learn the truth about her soon, but for now..* "..is my younger sister Soniee."
*The smile faded from her face as she took on a more serious tone.* "Sadly I'm here to be the bearer of bad news. Also, I'm delivering new students." *She waved her hand in a beckoning motion. Hesitantly, six younglings of all different species made their way down the ramp. Each one was around Soniee's age and dressed in similar fashion. Ellie then turned back to Aerandir.* "Have you ever heard of the Seven Suns Republic?"

*The news she was no longer Clan Leader of Ordo surprised Aerandir, though he opted not to ask for now. He smiled again to the girl—"Soniee," allegedly Ellie's sister—then watched as the younglings exited the ship. He nodded at each of them and would have addressed them had it not been for her asking him if he knew about the "Seven Suns Republic." Brow furrowing, he answered,* "It sounds... vaguely familiar at best, I'm afraid."

*Ellie gave a small nod at Aerandir's response. She honestly would have been surprised if he really knew something about them.* "Not many have heard of them. For the most part they're very secretive and like to stay that way. A group of us accidentally discovered one of their bases on Tatooine recently after a small Jedi task force was sne to rescue a group of younglings."
*She shifted into a more formal stance and gave Soniee a quick glance.* "After the ensuing battle with Seven Suns troopers and force users. We discovered that they were building an army of clones. The children that were being taken to the base were actually some of those clones." *Ellie paused for a moment before speaking.* "Oddly enough, the children themselves didn't even know they were clones. Many of these younglings DNA was taken from individuals that showed great talent in specific fields, others were from high ranking officials or persons of power. Then a smaller percentage came from force users.." *She placed her hand on Soniee's shoulder.* "..such as Soniee here. Who is, as you can probably guess, cloned after me."
*Her attention turned to the other younglings beside them.* "The rest of these younglings told us that their last memories were of Felucia. Whether they were actually here or not, I don't know." *Ellie's gaze locked with the Jedi Masters.* "What I'm trying to say, is that we have a problem. We have an enemy that has been replacing people with clones that are working for them. How many and how far it has reached, I have no idea."

*The more she spoke, the more concerned Aerandir became, particularly in regards to the notion this "Seven Suns Republic" may have collected DNA from residents of Felucia. The notion that the new Temple was compromised was only mitigated by the reality that any such collection had to have occurred at the old base, judging by the ages of these children. However, it still warranted a thorough investigation of the Temple's security just to be on the safe side.*
"The children will be taken care of, here," *he said.* "What you're reporting, however, requires attention. Is there anything else you know that you'd wish to discuss elsewhere?"

*Ellie could sense the concern with Aerandir as she explained the situation. She couldn't blame him either, especially when people under his care were involved. When he asked if there was more to discuss elsewhere, she shook her head no.* "Unfortunately, no. Everything I gave to you is all we have at the moment. Other then...how they treated the younglings, but I'd rather not get in that." *Her eyes darted quickly to Soniee than back to Aerandir.* "There's still man questions I want to know. Such as how many people have they cloned or replaced, where their getting all their genetic material, and how are they cloning force users. Which, I honestly thought was impossible."

"You haven't met half my family, then," *he replied with a half-smirk, managing some humor despite the topic.* "Cloning of Force-sensitive individuals isn't a simple process, but it's completely possible." *He nearly explained the true difficulty—avoiding development of psychosis in the subject—but opted to avoid potentially worrying the children. Instead, he said,* "Regardless, this sounds urgent. And I'd like to help in any way possible."

*Ellie arched and eyebrow in curiosity at Aerandir's comment about his family and clones. That may be a question for another time. When he pointed out that cloning a force sensitive was difficult but not impossible, she furrowed her brow. He wasn't letting on as much as he knew, and Ellie was sure the presence of the younglings was why. This made her wonder what complications could arise and if they'd effect Soniee.* "Help would be much appreciated, but unfortunately we've hit kind of a dead end. The majority of what we're doing now is investigating into the Seven Suns Republic itself. Trying to find out where they came from and who finances them. Any information you come across would be wonderful, no matter how small it is."

*He nodded.* "I'll do what I can, though I feel like I might not find much outside of Tatooine." *A thought came to mind, his eyebrows flickering.* "You wouldn't happen to have heard anything out of a milita known as the 'Black Seals' while out there, have you?"

*Ellie gave a nod at Aerandir's answer.* "Thank you." *She paused a moment when Aerandir asked her about the militia group.* "No, unfortunately. I've heard of the Blackguard, never the Black Seals. Have they been causing problems for the Jedi Order?"

*Chuckling, he answered,* "Quite the opposite. I uh, ran a brief campaign on Tatooine several years back, united some gangs against the First Order. The Black Seals were my first recruits, led by a Dug named Pubolto. It was meant to be a minor resistance, but after the First Order bombed much of Mos Eisley, he... took it to heart. He and his group became agents. Unorthodox agents, but regardless. They might be of some help in this."
