Something New

[Jairdain]

Having accepted the offer of training from Naamah, Jairdain kept it secret. Her comings and goings weren't noticed as much as they could have been by the Jedi. So she spent as much free time that she could on Mirial with the other woman. Never actually partaking in the bedding of clients, the young woman did learn about business though.

It was one of these days on Mirial that Naamah approached her and invited her to come along to a temple to observe something they were doing there. Unsure of what else she had planned, Jairdain did go along with her.

Unlike Naamah, she continued to wear normal clothes and not keep the look of a seductress. It paid off for her nicely and garnered her some respect from the clients there as well as the employees. The other woman may not have liked it quite as much though.

They weren't exactly friends, but not enemies either. More of a working relationship that could become friendship, but Jairdain wasn't quite ready for that step yet.

Walking out of the brothel together, she wondered what she was going witness today, but kept her question to herself.

Jairdain was quite the curious girl. Even while working at a brothel, she wore clothes that were rather modest. Showing hardly any skin, but still worked the floor every now and again. However, she didn't do any of the "favors." Yet she was by best worker. Did her job, and did it well. I couldn't fault the woman. Plus, I was taking her on as an apprentice to maybe, just maybe convert her completely to the dark side. Smiling at that thought, I had her follow me out of said brothel. We walked down the various streets towards the temple in relative silence. All I wore over my scaled frame was a set of loose fitting robes. The skirt I wore was made from feathers of various avian creatures.

Once we were getting closer, I decided to voice more about the "force" and what she knew compared to myself,

"Do you know how to tame a beast, either through conventional means, or through the force?"

Upon her answer, Yes or no, I continued.

"We are going to delve a little bit into beast taming. However, a different aspect. I am what some call a Nightsister, or a Witch of Dathiomir. One ability that I use most often is one I will teach to you. It is very useful upon those who have weaker minds, and even then, can be used against those with stronger minds if yours is trained to do so."

Reaching out with my gift, I reached her mind, and even though I knew she could handle it, I threw my voice into her mind. However, my voice was different. Almost as though I were sweet to the taste. Irresistible even. Smooth as butter,

"This ability we call mesmerism. or the act of making one fall under your command, either willingly with a push, or by force. This is but a taste of what it would feel like."

They walked in a comfortable silence for a few minutes before Naamah broke it. She asked if Jairdain knew how to tame a beast and she nodded.

"I know Beast Trick and have tamed a few animals that way."

She continued on, stated she was a Nightsister and Jairdain nodded. Having heard of them, she knew very little of what they really were or did.

"Trained as a mentalist since I'm blind, I'm quite strong there."

Walking on, Naamah displayed what the power could do. Not having expected, it took a moment for Jairdain to resist its effects. Letting out a small grunt of appreciation, it was an interest for her to know.

"Very nice. That was rather pleasant."
