Mand'alor the Reclaimer
The clearing was nothing special. Located deep in the forests of Myrkr, it stood as a small blemish on untouched kilometers of forest, stream, and mountain. Trees had been cleared in a fifty foot area, with many of the trees having been shorn, carved, and turned into benches around a single large, blazing bonfire located at the center of the clearing. The rest had been spaced around the perimeter of the clearing, creating a rough wooden palisade. Against the creatures that called the dark forests of Myrkr their home, the palisade was little more than an annoyance. As such, it had not been built to truly keep the creatures out, but to create the semblance of protection. The palisade, the fire, and the furniture spread out across the clearing were meant to bring a feeling of comfort and home to all those who entered the open gates.
Kreslin had spent a little over a week creating the clearing. He had sent out a message across the galaxy, calling for the Alor's of the various Mandalorian Clans to come to Myrkr. He had called them to join with the Mandalorian Union, and work together to begin creating the foundations of a new nation. He had requested they come, so that the scattered, feuding divisions among the Mando'ade could be mended. He desired to begin the work of mending the wounds that still ran deep among the Mandalorian psyche since the fall of Manda'yaim, the homeworld of their people. He sought a chance to begin building a future for their people that was not based solely on hatred, not dedicated to simple revenge, or doomed to follow in the footsteps of those that had fallen before them. Kreslin had sent this message to the Alor's and all those who might be interested, before heading into the wilderness of Myrkr, creating the clearing where he now sat and waited for those who would come.
He wore his armor, though his helmet lay on the log next to him, the shadows of the fire drifting lazily across its polished surface. In his hands, he held a Bes'bev, a wind instrument of the Mando'ade. He had begun learning to play it a few months ago, before the Union had even been formed. At that time, it had simply been a way to distract himself from the pain he felt, the agony and hatred that consumed him utterly. Learning the Bes'bev had helped, and working with all those in the Mandalorian Union, who shared the same dream as he, had helped. He hoped today would help further, not just himself, but all those who came willing to give this a chance.
The simple melody he played on the Bes'bev echoed across the clearing, striking against the palisade walls, and drifting into the dark forest beyond. He played the instrument as he waited, his mind devoid of thought as he committed to the simple act of creating music. Behind him, on a sharpened pole planted firmly in the ground hung a black and green banner, with the mythosaur skull that had been the symbol of the Mando'ade for centuries drifting in the wind along with the music.
