It had been a few years - at least - since Cora had last visited Alderaan. Her most recent trip in memory had been made to observe the discussion of succession that had lead to Alicio Organa being crowned King. During which, one Delila Castillon had mistaken her for a politician's mistress.
At...
"It's not that I want to learn this skill to attack - rather, to defend myself if someone tries to use it against me again."
Pyrokinesis was not a power that Cora had willingly sought out. The day Horace had held her down and pressed a hot iron poker into her abdomen, she'd had a perfect view...
Private quarters of Master Morgun Jai
Jedi Temple, Coruscant
POV: Oukranos Cthylla
“Are you sure it is wise to send Ben on this mission?”
Oukranos had spoken very little for the majority of this meeting, content to sit and listen to the Chief of Internal Affairs as he had so many times before...
Ukatis
Scilia
"You want to...learn?"
The village of Scilia was no stranger to hardship. Their Lord Gallas von Nyvlt, with the aid of an unpleasant Sith by the name of Jogon , had captured and stowed the town's force sensitive individuals in a dungeon beneath his manor. After Nyvlt had been...
With the classroom lecture concluded, students gradually filed from the room. A few hung back, engaged in conversation with one another as they slowly moved towards the door.
Cora glanced to the board behind her, electing not to erase the material just yet. A class on the importance of building...
Coruscant Jedi Temple
Training Room
A number of scenes had looped through Cora's mind after their failed mission to reclaim Tython. The dichotomy of Nulgath Zardai - from a terrifyingly competent eldritch horror turned into a crumpled husk - was one. Ashla only knows where or what he was now...
She had to admit - Dandoran was a beautiful place, minus all of the smuggling activity and the fact that the planet was collectively owned by the Hutts. Never did the small Sith woman imagine that she would be returning to Hutt space after leaving her enslavement; if she had had it her way, she...
Like an indecisive lover, Ukatis always pulled her back in.
On one level, it made sense. During her brief tenure as a princess, she'd overseen an Alliance-backed project that integrated healthcare clinics into some of Ukatis' poorer areas. Which, on a backwater farming planet that still paid...
fa-play fa-pause
Who would be more disappointed in her, Efret wondered, the more traditional Jedi or the more traditional, in a colonial sense, scientists?
She pushed the idea out of her head as she hooked her saddle bags over the speeder bike's frame, first on the top and then multiple...
Cora reached out to brush her organic fingers against the paneling of the meditation chamber. The light emitting from the walls was bright, yet not glaringly vibrant. There were several preset colors which she'd cycled through, and the option to play with something more custom. She'd settled on...
Congratulations to the new addition to the Hall of Fame that is Character of the Month:
CORAZONA VON ASCANIA
Well deserved a million times over. All those that write with you regularly speak highly of you, and those of us that have done the odd thread with you want more. Congratulations.
What...
Kaal
Moonside Resort
Nestled between the borders of two galactic powers was the picturesque, tropical planet of Kaal.
Always wary of potential trouble on their margins, the Alliance had gotten wind of shady dealings on the resort world. Low-level crime was given on most planets, even those...
Ukatis
Rural Territory
"These lands have been infertile for years. Lord Crenel has allowed us to do what we'd like with them, so long as we curb the spread."
The pair of Jedi stood among barren soil plots and rolling hills, deep in the heartland of rural Ukatis. Cora gestured to the earth...
Ukatis
Rural territory
"Lost three nerfs last week, then another this mornin'…"
Farmer Holst's gaze shifted from the remainder of his herd over to the metallic pylons posted around their pen. The lines etched into his weathered, aged face seemed to deepen.
"Whatever it was short'd out the...
Aboard The Prosperity
"I'm exhausted."
Cora groaned with an exaggerated heave as she and Makko Vyres meandered through the dormitory wing of The Prosperity.
In anticipation of the Dark Empire's assault on Coruscant, the Alliance had moved much of their vulnerable - bureaucrats and...

CORUSCANT
Butter + Batter Bakery | Corazona von Ascania
The line was long.
When Persephone heard about the bakery shutting down to due impending invasion, she didn't expect a line like this. A gourmet bakery specializing in decadent sweets and treats at eye watering prices in the ritzy...
Coruscant
Level 1313
Everybody had their vices. Even Jedi, who often held themselves up as paragons of virtue, were not immune to sin.
Ukatis, Mirial, Jedha - one after another, a cruel cycle of violence that never seemed to get them closer to any sort of ending. It weighed on her, and led...
Niv Hani – Noble Home
Valery Noble
"I don't know how something like this could've happened!"
Sat at the Noble's kitchen table, Cora rested her chin in the palm of her hand, elbow pressed to the surface. She scowled down at Lula, who was more than content with her spot on the floor and a bowl...
The last time she'd set foot on Lorta, Cora had an unfortunate meeting with Sinestra . Though she'd managed to stall the Mirialian long enough to flee, their interaction had left her with a branching, pink-hued scar that forked around her right wrist and twined up her forearm.
It had long since...
