SETTING INFORMATION
Structure Name: Arenais Estate.
Classification: Homestead.
Location: Commenor.
Affiliation: Caedyn Arenais, House Arenais.
Accessibility:
The new Estate of House Arenais is buried upon the edge of the Eldritch Mountains bordering upon Munto Valley, the land which formerly held the second largest City on Commenor. While much of the Estate is contained by the surrounding earth, the top level is accessible by foot and one merely has to walk the foot of the hill-side to reach the entrance of the vast residence.
The grounds surrounding the Arenais Estate consists mostly of forestation that covers the majority of the Eldritch Mountain. The new residence is located upon the opposite side from the former home which was devastated during the Sith Empire's year long occupation of Commenor and subsequent rebellion. Now much farther from the capital Chasin City, reaching this location requires either air or ground transportation and should one have the families security clearance in possession, may be granted access to the residence hangar embedded within the mountain at the base of the estate's ground level.
Description:
The residence of Caedyn Arenais and his family doesn't look like much from the outside, though first impressions aren't everything.
The very rectangle shaped facility sitting at the base of the vast Eldritch mountainside verging on Munto Valley has been built to be discretely hidden by the dense, surrounding woodland; And while the Estate consists of several floors not including the private hangar, most of this has been built to be contained by the mountainside itself and is very securely embedded within the earth of Commenor.
Upon entry however, guests and family members alike will be greeted by the modern decor and state of the art technology that credits can buy. The ground floor is made of thick transparent alloy that may expose the interior to the outside world, or otherwise be guarded by the facilities own blast shutters, reinforced defensive shielding that retract into the sides of the mountain when not in use. Something that was built with the history of the previous attacks and invasion of the Empire during the Monarchy's reign.
The Residence consists of numerous bedroom quarters for family members and guests, multiple bathrooms and living quarters, two kitchens and an entire floor designed for leisure and relaxation. The private Hangar has enough room for the storing of an estimated ten Starfighters or otherwise fewer larger personal craft, yet will not cater to anything bigger than freighter sized vessels.
The grounds surrounding the establishment are open and wild, the vast Munto Valley offering plenty of ground to cover and explore, far from the eyes of others. This locale is extremely private, however easily accessible providing one knows of it's whereabouts.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
In the early days, Caedyn's Mother was appointed President over Commenor by the peoples vote and there guided by the Aldermen, sought to lead the province into a golden age of democracy. Caedyn's Father, Veiere Arenais was a Jedi Knight during this time and had become the appointed bodyguard and confidante of the Lady President; However as time passed on, the two of them grew closer and eventually became a couple. Following the collapse of the Galactic Republic, Veiere Arenais focused his time into forming the Order of Commenor, as well as establishing the House Arenais and a permanent Residence for he and Lady Kay, dubbed 'Chateau La Arenais' as an inside joke between them.
Unsuspecting of any attack, Lady NPC Treasury disappeared without a trace during one of her regular journey's down through the Twin Canyons of Commenor. Veiere Arenais led an investigation alongside Kay's Ministry of Office, however six months passed without word nor sight of her. Her next appearance on Commenor would come when all hope seemed to be lost, and alongside her during his shocking reveal was one Darth Prazutis , the Sith Lord who had abducted and turned her to the Dark-side subsequently resulting in Kay's declaration of Commenor to be led under a dictatorship as Queen.
The year that followed was hard fought and filled with tragedies as the former ministers and government regime were all arrested, the majority executed under the manipulation of the Sith Lord's mentor-ship over Kay. In secret, Veiere Arenais met with her regularly and through their established Force Bond was able to remove the hold that Darth Prazutis had over her. This started the first rebellion against the Sith presence on Commenor and with many lives lost, they eventually succeeded in restoring the damage wrought upon Kay's mind, and cleansing the world of the Sith-Imperial insurrection.
Commenor's recovery was long and arduous, as was the trauma wrought upon the Lady Kay. While she remained Queen, the position had been won through horrible means not of her nature. In these dark times, she leaned heavily upon Veiere Arenais for guidance and stability, and over the next few years they eventually married, appointing Veiere as King through this union. Several years following, the twins Caedyn and Loreena Arenais-Valhoun were born.
What started with the hope for one World eventually grew beyond the scope of what Veiere and Kay had ever imagined, their influence expanding to other neighboring worlds in the first days of the Commenor Systems Alliance. Their leadership and advocacy for peace and neutrality would reach far and wide across the expansive regions, gaining the attention of numerous other Nations including that of the Sith Empire and Darth Carnifex .
Once again the Sith sought to bring chaos to Commenor, managing to successfully blockade the Capital World cutting them off from their surrounding Nations and crippling the CSA's financial economy. In devastating their ability to govern beyond their own sector, the Monarchy was forced to relinquish claim to the worlds they had previously sought to protect and from there, the Emperor began his invasion. Veiere Arenais narrowly escaped the executioners block while Kay Arenais was taken into custody in what would be the year long and horrific Sith occupation of Commenor.
Rallying as many Allies to his cause, Veiere Arenais managed to gain a large enough army to retaliate against the Empire; The second great Rebellion of Commenor. Supported by the Order of the Silver Jedi, The Alliance-in-Exile, the Outer Rim Coalition and Independent forces of the Mandalorian Empire, the counter-attack against the Occupying Sith Presence forced them to retreat back to Sith Space with a significant portion of Commenor's minerals and resources. Munto City had been devastated by the Sith Fleet, eight million lives taken in a single strike. The Capital, Chasin City was in tatters and the Commenor Systems Alliance was unable to recover. The Legacy of House Arenais had been brought to it's knees.
Over a decade has passed since then and the former Queen was used as a scapegoat following the world's recovery, convicted of war crimes and atrocities formerly undertaken during the influence of Darth Prazutis and the Dark Side of the Force. She was found guilty and sentenced to Prison; Kay's whereabouts today are not publicly known. Veiere Arenais however moved to strike a deal with the Order of the Silver Jedi whom agreed to take Commenor into their influence with Darlyn Excron as the new President. Veiere Arenais was later slain at the hands of Darth Prazutis during the Battle of Bimmisaari.
In the hope that enough time has passed for the people of Commenor to have moved on from the atrocities suffered during the leadership of House Arenais, Caedyn Arenais who serves under the Silver Jedi Order as a Jedi Knight has discretely moved to establish a homestead and estate for his family in memory and recognition of the past. While his Parents intentions were pure, nothing in his and his Sister's life had gone according to their plans. Commenor however still holds a dear place in his heart, and so his returning home was always in the back of his mind and plans for the future.
