Ok if you ask Genesis this actually had been cleared with him ahead of time and he gave his approval for Daxton to try mend fences between the two Force User groups.
Technically we aren't at war or even hostile with each other. However, if you follow any of my rps would note that is a pattern of open hostility between myself and several members of the Jedi Council, stemming from the first time Ben tried to take me out (or stop my madness, it depends on who you ask).
That being said, wouldn't the Jedi Council even consider a chance at dialogue instead of drawn blades? You could always reject the proposal if it seems too unfair to your side. The point is Daxton is trying to reach out to those he considers blood enemies and reach a more peaceful relationship. Abeit hard to swallow on the surface but this is a necessary stepping stone for character development.
I posted an interest thread for this and several Republic Senators as Darron expressed interest so I pushed forward, although it got delayed because of the request to post it after the election of the Chancellor. Alternately I could put it before the Senate instead or come up with an alternate if the Council rejects it completely.
