THE CONFERENCE ROOM
Kiskla had been a little preoccupied, but this was an invitation she couldn't refuse. Until she could be there in person, she sent her personal agent of The Force and Order, [member="Aaralyn Rekali"] as a proxy. Such time of absence had drawn to a close, and the young woman had closed the distances of stars to the neutral area. On her way, she had been thoroughly immersed in the conversations Grandmaster Yoda had left in his holocron -- getting herself knee-deep into the mindset of a proper Jedi and what she should be reflecting. The constellations of knowledge had been most inspiring.
She was slightly abashed to be accepting an invitation instead of extending one, but realized she would have likely have seemed politically charged. And they’d have probably been right. She had her goals.
Either way, her steps were hurried. Kiskla wasn’t an empath naturally, but she needn’t be. The station was charged with an energy that the galaxy vied for, that she vied for. Jedi congregated and working together, sharing from each other; growing. It had perhaps only been going on for an hour or so, but it was a swelling that brought a smile to her naturally pouted lips; a step in from a war-focused galaxy.
She needed to keep up to speed though; and she was scrolling through her notes, the same that those in the conference room shared, while she navigated through the stretching corridors.
Slipping in while the conversation was turning, her light eyes didn’t take long to absorb the information on the screen presented to the esteemed collaborators in the room. She already knew a handful of them personally, others by name. What she did not see, however, was her proxy. Oh dear. She was sure Aaralyn would not forgo her assignment, she was a loyal Jedi — nor would she find another activity in lieu of an important conversation. She’d simply have to catch up with her later.
She was in time to catch the resurrected [member="Tracyn Ordo"]’s comment which followed the tail-end salutations of [member="Sochi Ru"].
“I believe this collaborative solution will help prevent the Sith from becoming an uncontrollable threat. Though I’m sure we all know not to underestimate our enemies.
Thank you for your invitation, [member="Jorus Merrill"].” She nodded in salutations — she’d taken the liberty to see what files she could collect on the attendees of this congregation. Thankfully, her curious mind was privy to a lot of files!
Purposefully, Kiskla took a position that didn’t align her with one position or another. She could have easily sat with [member="Phylis Alince"] (as always), but instead chose a different empty seat. This was all about branching out, after all!
Introductions were always so awkward, she was never any good at them. Kiskla Grayson, Jedi Grayson, Master Grayson, Kiskla, whatever. Still, everyone had been formal up until now, and although the title was still foreign on her tongue, she spoke it so others knew who she was, though she’d met majority of them (or at one time had planned to, during her inaugural outreach). “Kiskla Grayson,” the Jedi spoke — realizing she’d withheld the title, yet again. She'd even done it in her public address after Coruscant. “Grandmaster for The Jedi Order of the Galactic Republic.” Galaxies, what a mouthful! Was it necessary? Probably not. Still, kind of cool to say -- although the fact she had to declare what Order she represented was irritating.
