RDMC Cloning Facility
This is a state of the art, semi-automated, cloning facility for anyone with money and the need for a clone. This wing has over a dozen ~main level~ rooms and was built onto the Red Dawn Medical Complex for easy access by perspective patients/clients. The above ground areas had several rooms set aside for meetings with patients/clients who may be interested in having a clone made. These rooms have a lower security level than the laboratories and the rooms that hold the cloning pods/tanks, but still a good amount of security nonetheless. There are also several examination, and surgical rooms, in this area
There are also underground ~hidden~ levels for this wing, and much of the RDMC in general - mainly for privacy and protection for the doctors and the patients/clones. The lower levels were where they kept the blood, tissue, and other various organic samples of the patients/clients. Some of the finished clones that were waiting to be claimed by the perspective patients/clients were also kept in this highly secured area below ground. There are also several private examination and surgical rooms down in this area - along with a fully equipped, state of the art laboratory. The main inner workings of the whole cloning facility, (the laboratory, rooms that hold the cloning pods/tanks, etc.), can only be accessed by a select few doctors/nurses/droids with the highest level of RDMC security clearances and many protocols are in place to ensure the security of this section.
The department is headed, in part, by Dr. Alisha Mercotti, Dr. Jena Shaewe, Dr. Lyssa Ramaela, Diana, and Deena (two ~female~ Human Replica Droids - HRD's). These five women are the only current doctors to have the security clearance necessary to enter the cloning laboratory itself at this point in time.

The Coruscant Express Courier vessel had landed just outside the RDMC, before a Courier carried a small parcel into the RDMC, to the Cloning Facility Reception desk, where the man rang a bell to get a receptionists attention as he placed the parcel on the counter and got out his datapad to pull up the order information so he could get a signature for the delivery Coruscant Express Courier's, making sure your delivery's arrive on time. One bio parcel today, with a request form, a sample, and a down payment inside. Please sign here, thank you. Inside, the receptionist or one of the Cloning Specialists would find a small vial of blood belonging to a near-human female, along with a note requesting one clone to be made and kept in stasis until it was collected by Master Stormrage, and a credit chip with what Ifrit had guessed was a sizeable enough down payment

Mandy, the receptionist at the RDMC cloning facility, looked up from a datapad she'd been reading to see the CEC employee standing in front of the desk. Smiling she listened to what he had to say and looked over the request form he presented along with the parcel. While some clients preferred to appear in person, it wasn't unusual for a client to use a parcel service for their cloning request, and this obviously had to be a cloning request because that was the only kind of business the cloning wing dealt in. After reading over the request form and checking the contents within the package with a small hand held scanner, Mandy smiled and signed the form then handed it back to the courier.
"Did the person who sent this happen to say when they wanted this completed? The process takes at least three years - sometimes longer. We don't do those quickie type clones that sometimes go all batshit schitzo and wreak havoc everywhere."

The Courier verified the signature before replacing the datapad away in his pocket as the receptionist inquired about the client's wish for when the clone was to be completed. Although the man had never really said anything on the topic, the Courier had done what most people in his job did, he'd paid attention to how the man was acting, after all some people paid a little extra for that kind of information The matter didn't really come up, but he sure looked like he was travelling somewhere far away. Judging by his title, I'd say he was training, ya know what I mean? With that, the CEC Employee gave the receptionist a wink before turning around and heading out of the RDMC, back towards his transport to head off to collect his next delivery or drop off another package

"Ahh well. Hopefully his training takes a while then. Here you go."
She smiled and handed him a few extra credits as a tip then watched him leave the area. Placing the parcel in a try, she handed it to the med droid standing by who then took it down the hall to the laboratory door. The droid slipped the parcel into the slot beside the door where it would be picked up by one of the techs in the cloning lab. The samples would be tested before the cloning process began....

5 Years Before The Mandalorian War/Conflict
Diana had been hard at work ensuring that the DNA the client (Pasca Resco) had left was good enough to use for the cloning process. After running it through several necessary test procedures, she was satisfied that the DNA was viable enough to use to make the requested clone. The cloning tanks had already been prepared with the necessary nutrients required for the clones growth and over all well being while in development. Once the 'embryo' was in place within the smaller "starting pod", or artificial womb as these smaller pods were sometimes referred to as, Diana set about making sure the nutrient levels were sufficient in the pod. It was especially important that the newly growing clone had enough of said nutrients to form properly. As the clone grew he, or she, would be moved into a larger pod/tank to accommodate his, or her, growth rates as were all clones within the lab, all the while they would remain in a comatose state until "awoken".
In this particular case, the client had never given a name but it didn't matter. All of the clones in the lab were given numerical identities for privacy reasons, even if the identity of the client was known to the laboratory personnel, while in the growing stages. This clone was no different from the other clones in that aspect, and so was issued the number 1357-A. When Diana was satisfied that everything was in place and the equipment was working as it should, she moved on to check on the other clones in various stages of completion in the lab....

Knight Mentor Jorge had made the trip to the RDMC using one of the Swoop Bikes the Temple had for use by staff. He quickly made his way through the RDMC to the cloning facility recpetion area, where he pulled out the small box and placed it on the desk. The sender section contained Zion's details, whilst the notes section contained which syringe belonged to which clone =Jorge= Hi, I'm here to drop off a package of blood samples to be tested. Dr Ramaela is apparently expecting these...

NPC: Deena, one of the RDMC's HRD's that worked in the cloning facility, happened to be standing at the desk talking to Mandy the receptionist when Knight Mentor Jorge entered the area. He placed a small box on the desk as he explained what it contained and who it was for. Deena smiled a most human looking smile as she picked it up and read the notes on the box. Meeting Jorge's eyes, she replied.
"Of course, Sir. She had mentioned that Zion was going to be sending over some samples sometime soon. I'll make sure she is notified of their arrival so that she may begin the required testing. Thank you for bringing them."

One year agoThe Coruscant Express Courier vessel had landed just outside the RDMC, before a Courier carried a small parcel into the RDMC, to the Cloning Facility Reception desk, where the man rang a bell to get a receptionists attention as he placed the parcel on the counter and got out his datapad to pull up the order information so he could get a signature for the deliveryCoruscant Express Courier's, making sure your delivery's arrive on time. One bio parcel today, with a request form, a sample, and a down payment inside. Please sign here, thank you.Inside, the receptionist or one of the Cloning Specialists would find a small vial of blood belonging to a near-human female, along with a note requesting one clone to be made and kept in stasis until it was collected by Master Stormrage, and a credit chip with what Ifrit had guessed was a sizeable enough down payment Diana, one of the resident HRD's, that specialized in cloning as soon as the courier left the building, picked up the parcel almost as soon as the med droid slid it through the slot. Picking up the parcel, she read the notes attached to box as she walked into the secured labs of cloning facility to begin the required testing and preparing of the DNA for the cloning procedure. Once all the necessary testing was completed it was time to begin the cloning process itself.
Diana prepared the cloning pod with the required nutrients and organic catalysts before placing the 'embryo', which had been duplicated and placed into donor cells beforehand, inside the artificial womb to begin it's journey of growing into a full fledged adult being. The growing stage could take anywhere from a few weeks to a few years. Here at the RDMC they preferred to have the clones gestate, at the very least, for three years and up to five or six years, or more, if the client was willing to wait the additional years. The extra gestational period allowed for the clone to more fully mature mentally. This aided in lessening the mental instability suffered by a lot of the clones that were created through the Spaarti method which reached adulthood in mere weeks instead of years. In fact it was closer to the old Kamino method with a few changes here and there to ensure the best clone possible. Valuable lessons had been learned about cloning over the decades since the Galactic Civil War. There were even newer more refined methods that allowed clones, Force sensitive or not, to live longer and be even more mentally stable than their predecessors though failure was still a very real possibility, albeit more rare nowadays.
Once Diana was satisfied that the procedure had went as expected, she glanced at the monitors once more and copied the readings into a datapad before moving on to check on some of the other clones in various stages of growth copying down the information on their monitors, including the designated case number for each clone. She then placed the datapad into the cloning facilities main medical files and downloaded it into the database. The computer would automatically sort through the data and add it to each clones own individual medical file for future reference.

Present Day
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lyssa had been paged to the cloning facility, so after finishing her patient rounds she made her way to the labs. Stopping at the door, she went through all the protocols, retinal scan, palm print, thumb print, I.D. card swipe, and personal password. The door finally swished open, much to her delight after jumping through all the security hoops, and she entered the area with a grin. Mandy, the receptionist at the front desk of the cloning wing, greeted her with a friendly smile and a wave of her hand. She returned the young womans greeting then entered the laboratory where Deena, one of the resident HRD's, was waiting for her with the package from Zion. Cheerfully taking the package from Deena, Lyssa read the notes attached to the box. Raising an eyebrow, she carried the box over to one of the lab tables and set it down to open it. Inside were the blood samples of the Hikari and Akari clones that Zion had sent over to have analyzed. There happened to be a sample of his own blood in there too, to aid in the confirmation of the genetic link between himself and the clones.
Making a clicking noise with her tongue, Lyssa pulled all of the samples out of the box and arranged them alphabetically on the table. Pursing her lips and raising an index finger to her chin, she contemplated what test to run on them first. "Might as well start with the basics, I suppose." She stated, rather amusingly, to Deena who stood silently by watching the colorfully flashy doctor with an amused expression on her near perfect features. Running a hand through her short blonde hair with a small sigh, Lyssa walked over to the cupboard above the sink and took out a knee length white apron to put on over her multi-colored cartoon character emblazoned scrubs then she thoroughly washed her hands before finally donning pair of sterile surgical gloves. Deena handed her a pair of clear lab goggles then followed as she walked back over to the lab table.
Lyssa picked up the first sample, Akari's sample, and took the lid off of the tube setting it aside while she reached for a small sterile eyedropper. Filling the eyedropper about half way, she recapped the sample and placed it back in the holder with the others. Deena had already prepared one of the DNA scanning machines for the testing so all Lyssa had to do was place a drop of blood on the glass slide in the middle of the scanner and press the button to begin analysis of the sample. Once the analysis was completed the same process was repeated with Hikari's and then and Zion's samples also with the glass slide being replaced with a new one each time so as not to contaminate the results.
Just as Lyssa has originally suspected, Akari's and Hikari's samples proved that they were "related" to Zion. On the other hand, proving they were actual clones would be damn near impossible even with the supreme technology available, unless they analyzed their whole genome and even then it was questionable. There were other, less technological, ways to prove they were indeed clones though, such as scars and/or tattoos, personality traits etcetera, that the real sisters may have had that the clones most likely lacked since they were, for all intents and purposes, separate people and chances are that whoever cloned them forgot to add those little physical nuances.
While Lyssa was adding the information to a datapad the machine beeped again, indicating that it had found another genetic match to Zion and his "sisters". Looking up to the holoscreen above the machine with a slight frown on her lips, she narrowed her eyes when she saw the read out. Catching her lower lip between her teeth, she tapped a few buttons on the console of the scanner. A smaller window popped up on the holoscreen with more readings. Stepping closer, Lyssa studied the screen intently, her mouth forming a silent "O" before she spoke in a hushed tone, more to herself than to anyone else. "That can't be right...."
"What can't be right, Doctor?" Deena asked, looking up from her own datapad before coming to stand beside Lyssa. Gazing at the holoscreen and seeing the readings that Lyssa was pointing to, Deena narrowed her eyes.
"These readings." Lyssa pointed to one line in particular on the holoscreen while speaking. "They indicate that there's at least two more genetic matches for the Morviael bloodline. Paternal matches. Zions direct bloodline to be exact. His children....and they're apparently right here in the cloning lab."
Tapping the console again, the holoscreen changed to another page, a biographical page. Lyssa noticed that the page had the word - *DECEASED* - at the top of it before she began reading further down. The information on this page held even more surprises as it listed the case numbers of three clones, females, and the template for them had been none other than one Si-Uri, which meant that Si-Uri had been Zions biological daughter thus technically making her clones his "daughters" also. It had been almost six years since the woman had came to Honoghr to have Alisha remove some of her scars and tattoos and it was around that time that Si had originally requested the clones be created, though apparently one of the clones, Casey, had already been inadvertently awakened during the IF's siege on the planet three years ago and her current whereabouts were unknown.
Lyssa continued reading and found that the two remaining clones were being exposed to basic flash learning - reading, writing, mathematics, etc., while still in their pods. She nodded her head in silent approval of whoever ordered that to begin taking place. It wouldn't any good if Zion had to teach them everything from scratch. Oh shit, she'd almost forgot about Zion! Did he even know he had children? Had anyone ever told him about the clones of his daughter?
After stripping off the surgical gloves and running a hand over her forehead, she then laid both hands on the table top while chewing on her lower lip for a moment as she thought about this whole scenario. Did she take a chance and tell Zion about the latest developments and risk traumatizing the poor man with information about even more clones sharing his familial genetics, or did she keep silent and and act like nothing happened? She was fully aware of Deena watching her decide what to do even if the HRD seemed like she was preoccupied with some other task. Glancing at Deena, Lyssa let out a growl of frustration before pushing herself back from the table and resting her hands on top of her head.
"This has got to be one of the most fucked up situations I've come across in....forever!" Dropping her hands to her hips, she met Deena's gaze with a small chuckle before continuing. "Okay, okay....maybe not in forever but it comes pretty Gahd damn close. How do you tell a man that he has two grown daughters that have just been hanging out in cloning pods in your lab for the last almost 6 years? Wait....just how far along have they physically aged? Are they even at the adult stage or are they still younglings? We need to check those clones!"
She was already on the move with the last couple of sentences, Deena following close behind as they walked through the lab to lower the levels of the cloning facility down to the rooms containing the cloning pods that held the clones that had been in stasis for the last several years. Coming to a halt at the end of one of the short rows, Lyssa looked at the number on the datapad attached to the pod. She then pushed a button on the last cloning pod and the tinted panel slid back to reveal one of Si-Uri's clones. Arching an eyebrow and pursing her lips, she pushed the button on the pod next to it and the tinted panel on that pod slid back to reveal the other clone of Si. Standing back from the pods, Lyssa folded her arms over her chest and studied the forms within. Something was a little off about the clones, they weren't perfect duplicates of their template. Lyssa realized it was the hair color since both clones had different hair color than Si and each other. They looked to be in their early twenties, physically, and with the flash learning, it was probably safe to assume that after all these years that their intelligence levels would most likely match their age. Bracing a hand against the thick glass of one of the pods, she sighed before looking over to Deena.
"Well they appear to be older, which is a good thing. It means they'll most likely be self sufficient enough that Zion won't have to worry too much about their well being when he's away."
"So you are going to tell him then?"
Lyssa gazed at the clones again before stepping back from the pods and folding her arms across her chest again. "Yeah. I think he deserves to know about them, deserves to know that he has two beautiful daughters just waiting to be awakened to meet their father, don't you?"
Smiling, Deena nodded her head in agreement. Lyssa turned to face her while taking her personal comlink out of a pocket on her scrub pants. "Well, here we go...." Smiling, Lyssa pushed the button on the comlink and began speaking.
:: Zion, it's Lyssa. I think you'd better come to the RDMC Cloning Facility at your earliest convenience. We have some important, and interesting, things that we need to discuss and they shouldn't be discussed over a comlink. ::
Placing the comlink back in her pocket, Lyssa walked back into the main part of the lab to put away the genetic samples that Zion had sent over while Deena set about preparing some necessary items for Zions visit.

The LAAT Gunship had landed in the RDMC's Hangar Bay, before Zion had exited the craft and made his way through the various corridors of the RDMC, to the Cloning Facility, the most state of the art facility this side of the Outer Rim. As he approached the reception desk, he could already tell this place was one of the more heavily secured locations within the entire Medical Center, which was for good reason considering what was kept here. He stopped in front of the desk and smiled at the receptionist, partly wanting to try and make a good first impression, since he had never met the woman before =Zion Morviael= Hi, I'm sorry to interupt you, but I am looking for Dr. Ramaela, she said she had something urgent to discuss with me... I'm Zion Morviael by the way...

Mandy, the receptionist, was coming out of the inner office, behind the reception desk with a caf mug in her hand, when she saw a man walking up to the desk. Setting the mug down on the desk, she waited for him to state his business. After he told her that he was looking for Dr. Ramaela, and then introduced himself, she arched an eyebrow and typed something into a datapad she had picked up from the desk. A moment passed before she looked back up at Zion with a pleasant smile on her face.
"Of course Mr. Morviael, Doctor Ramaela is expecting you. If you just go over to those doors...." She pointed the way to the highly secured laboratory of the cloning facility. "....someone will be there momentarily to allow you admittance to the lab." With another quick smile, she tapped the datapad again to send another message to Dr. Ramaela inside the lab.

=Zion Morviael= Thank you for your assistance. Zion gave a part bow, before making his way over towards the secure built entrance into the RDMC cloning facility, still not any more closer to being certain what it was that Lyssa wanted to discuss. Perhaps, as he thought earlier, she had found some vital clues to where the Clones were created, since that was about the only thing he could think of that would require a personal meeting. It was then that another possible option sparked back to life, one that had not occured to him until just seconds ago, and had been part of the reason he had chosen Honoghr over other Medical Centers. But at the same time, he wasn't sure that could be the reason, especially after so long, and out of the blue like this. Though, considering his life had pretty much been made up entirely of things out of the blue, it wasn't entirely unlikely that something like this would happen now. Regardless, he stopped at the door, and pushed what looked like a guest buzzer, to let Lyssa, or one of her assistants, know he was at the door and waiting to enter

Lyssa had finished tidying up the lab and was busy going over the medical files of Si-Uri's two remaining clones. They seemed to be healthy according to the scans and blood tests that were periodically taken, from all of the clones in the cloning facility, to gauge their overall physical health during their development and stasis. This was a good sign since it meant that they could safely be awakened if Zion so chose.
Absently chewing on the end of the stylus she was using to take notes with, Lyssa was shaken out of her thoughts by the beep of her personal datapad. Picking up the datapad, she eyed the message that Mandy had sent from the front desk. Zion had arrived. Sighing, she continued to absently chew on the stylus while she sent Mandy a reply. In a few short moments, the buzzer to the laboratory door rang. Standing up from the desk, she removed the white apron she still wore and tossed it across the back of the chair. She smoothed a hand down the front of her scrub shirt before casting a glance to Deena.
"Well, it's now or never. Time to introduce Zion to his daughters." She turned and started to walk away when Deena's voice stopped her. Looking back, she had a questioning expression on her face.
"Erm, you may want to...." Deena replied with a tilt of her head.
"What? What's wrong?" It took Lyssa a few seconds to figure out what Deena was talking about and even then it wasn't until Deena pointed to the stylus still sticking out of Lyssa's mouth. "Huh? Oh shit! Thanks!" Lyssa raised a hand and took the stylus out of her mouth then tossed it on the desk before continuing on to the main door of the lab. She heard Deena's quiet chuckle behind her as she walked down the small hallway to the entrance.
"I should really start chewing gum, or something, instead of chewing on writing utensils." She muttered to herself as she came to a halt in front of the door. Swiping her I.D. card in the terminal at the side of the door, she gave a slight smile as the door swished open to reveal Zion, waiting patiently, on the other side. Motioning him inside, she stepped aside to allow him entrance.
"Zion....just the man I want to see. Welcome to the RDMC's cloning facility. Please, follow me....we have a lot to discuss." She began walking back to the main part of the laboratory with Zion presumably in tow.

=Zion Morviael= I appreciate the help Lyssa... Zion then followed Lyssa as she lead the way into the Cloning Facilities main laboratory, taking in the sights as he passed by them whilst following Lyssa deeper into the facility. It really was a state of the art facility and definitely showed that the RDMC lived up to it's name as the galaxy's forefront hospital in cloning and other medical technologies, which was probably one of the reasons that Zachriel has urged him to come here when Tiggy needed help. Turning his thoughts back to the present, and Lyssa's comment that they had a lot to discuss, Zion decided that perhaps now was the best time to get the conversation started =Zion Morviael= So... Did the clones DNA provide you with any answers that might be helpful?

Casting a glance over her shoulder, she nodded her head at his words of thanks. "You're welcome." She stated simply, and evenly, before stopping at the turbolift that led to the rooms containing most of the clones at the RDMC. Turning to face Zion, she crossed her arms over her chest and studied him momentarily before continuing.
"There's no definite markers to show where the clones were made, but they do have some similarities of ones made from Kaminoan, Arkanian, and Spaarti methods, but they also have similarities with clones made right here....and I know they weren't made in this facility. Pinpointing an exact place of origin is going to be tricky, especially when more than a few facilities, nowadays, use similar methods."
Turning back to the turbolift, she swiped her I.D. card and the doors swished open. As they both stepped inside, Lyssa looked thoughtful for a moment or two before turning to Zion.
"Hmm. They could have been made by Kaminoans - or is it Kaminans? You'd think after twenty five hundred years I'd know how to say it by now. Giving a small grin, she looked over to a panel on the wall of the turbolift and pushed one of the buttons and the lift began to move silently.
"The point is that they could have been made elsewhere on Kamino besides the main facilities. I've heard rumors of a couple of private facilities there, but I've only ever been to the main facilities and that was what seems like a lifetime ago now. If the private complexes exist, it's possible that they use different methods than the main cloning facilities. With nothing to compare our findings to, it's hard to tell where the clones originated from. I do know that they didn't come from the main Kamino complex though because that would've taken, at the very least, ten years for the clones to be completed - and Hikari and Akari haven't been gone that long."
She stated confidently when the lift stopped a few seconds later on one of the underground floors. When the doors swished open, Lyssa walked out and was moving at a brisk pace with Zion walking beside her. Coming to a halt at yet another set of doors, because apparently whoever designed the building had thing for doors and decided you could never have enough of the kriffing things, Lyssa swiped her I.D. card again and placed her palm on a small panel beside the entrance. This was one of the main rooms that held some of the clones that had been in stasis for several years. The only sounds in this room, besides Lyssa and Zion talking, were the hushed gentle humming sounds of the smoothly running motors that kept the pods in working order and the clones alive. Among the pods that stood in the small rows were the clones of Si-Uri, Zions deceased daughter. Before Lyssa revealed the clones to him though, first she had to find out if he actually knew of Si-Uri's existence. Pausing beside one of the main holoscreens at the entrance of the room, Lyssa faced Zion once more, a serious contemplative expression on her face.
"Zion, did you ever have any children?"
If anything could be said about Lyssa Ramaela it was the fact that she was almost always blunt and to the point in her speech. She rarely sugar coated things and some people often found her a bit abrasive - at least until they got to know her better. All that aside, she figured Zion was a big boy and could handle the bluntness in her line of questioning.

Zion followed alongside Lyssa as she lead the way through the myriad of security doors and turbolifts, whilst listening to Lyssa's explanations and results so far regarding the clone DNA that he had provided her with. There wasn't exactly anything promising to go on, except for when Lyssa mentioned it was possible the clones could have been made in a private facility on Kamino, which would match up with why the Elementis Brother's had asked to meet there. Although Lyssa couldn't give him an exact, fact based answer, her theory, at the very least, was further evidence that this meeting he was going to attend was unlikely to merely be a trap. He did pause in thought for a moment as Lyssa stated that the clones couldn't have been created just through Kaminoan methods, purely because his sisters had died less than a couple years ago. Zion couldn't help but doubt that these clones were only a last minute plan, in fact, for all either he, or Lyssa knew, the clones could have been created at any point during the last 300 years, with the memories only being imprinted just recently. Zion stopped next to Lyssa as they entered what he could only assume was their final destination, as she turned to him as they stood near a holoscreen, and came right out and asked if he had had any children. It was quickly seeming quite apparent that his search for the Elementis Brother's was becoming entwined with his long delayed search for the clone of his daughter that Iella had told him of before she had died. He took on a more sombre expression as he looked at her =Zion Morviael= That I know of? There was one... A daughter... Not that I knew she was mine, until only recently... But she has passed on... All I know, is that she had a clone that visited her mother... It was part of the reason that when Tiggy needed help, I choose to come here, in an attempt to one day find this clone of hers, but... Well things happened... A lot had indeed happened since he had arrived to Honoghr with Tigress, branching from meeting Caoimhe, the wife of his family's Patriarch, to travelling to Coruscant to retrieve some machine from Braenden, the Patriarch of the Morviael's himself, to coming back and running the Jedi Temple whilst Tiggy recovered, and then the most recent attempt on his life. It had been a long journey, and for the most part, he had put thoughts of his daughter, and the death of Iella, to the side, but they were all starting to come back to him =Zion Morviael= Did you find something?

So he knew of Si-Uri's existence and that of one of the clones, Casey. This was good news for Lyssa. It meant she didn't have to waste time informing him that he had fathered a child. Though for him to find out that he actually has two more living "children" might come as a bit of a shock, but she was sure he could handle this new line of information. Turning to face the holoscreen she was standing in front of, she swiped a hand over the surface and the screen came to life out of it's sleep mode.
"That explains a lot...." She said thoughtfully as she tapped a few buttons on the console below the screen. The lights of one of the ~clone~ rows behind them grew a little brighter as she stepped away from the console and motioned with her hand for him to follow her own that particular row. She came to a halt in front of two pods and before reaching for the button that would slide the privacy panels aside, she turned to face him as she folded her arms across her chest.
"Si-Uri came to the RDMC for medical treatment a few years ago and before she left she requested that a clone be made. As was, and still is sometimes, our custom - there were three clones started. Si-Uri knew this, accepted it, and paid for everything upfront. One of the clones pods was damaged during the last Iron Fist siege, about three years ago, and that clone, Casey, was inadvertently released from her stasis. She hung around Honoghr for a while, getting used to people and life, before disappearing off into the galaxy. We haven't seen of heard from her since, though from what you just said, she was apparently able to track Si's mother down. The other two clones are still here in cloning stasis pods.
Because of Si-Uri's original request, Zion....you have two living daughters right here."
Lyssa paused for a moment, gaging Zion's reaction to what she had just told him before turning to the cloning pods and pushing a button on first one then the other pod. The privacy panes on both pods slid back to reveal two "sleeping" young women floating peacefully in the nutrient rich liquid within.
