Jairdain
Lady of Juniper
The change from light to dark within Jairdain had not happened overnight, but had taken months. Her time was spent in solitude mostly. There were people around her in passing, but nobody close. In the past, she had always had a friendly and warm smile for people. Now instead of masking her emotions behind a curtain or hiding them in a box, she let them be felt. Her upbringing had allowed her acknowledge these emotions, but she had boxed them away. She had never denied them though and this was still the case. The box was gone now though.
Her friendly demeanor was more muted now and while still polite to people, there was a new darkness around the young woman. While she had been Jedi, this darkness had been locked away. It had been there then though, just untouched and unused by her. Jairdain had mastered control long ago and used it still. Now however, she used the emotions she felt touched by. Never allowing them to fully control what she did, but empower her actions.
Now the former Jedi wondered the streets of Bastion, without a true purpose or goal. Her view of the Dark had changed with the passage of time. The beliefs of her people were no longer important. What they had thought was wrong. They and her had been afraid of what emotions could do, how strong they were. Her ordeal and trial were over and a new life was begun. A person grew out of the ashes of the old and Jairdain was reborn. The flames that had filled her veins were gone, but even she didn't know who the new person was.
Today, a purpose manifested. The desire to find a form of companionship with the only person she could think of among this new family. That person was Lykos. A man she had met in battle and searched him out a month later. So today, she did it again. She knew he was here on Bastion, their connection guided her more than anything.
Knowing he would feel her as well, Jairdain walked to where she felt him. Bound and bonded to him deeper than with anybody else, nothing would sever that. Their past relationship had been defined. How would be changed since she was different now? Would that mutual respect still be there?
It lead her out of the city she had been in and took her into the natural lands of Bastion. Here it was away from prying eyes and the population thinned out. She found him observing something only he could see. What that was, Jairdain had no clue and chose not to ask. Her approach was in the open, she had nothing to hide from him. Even now for some reason, she did not fear him either.
He had claimed a sort of ownership of her. Lykos has given her the name of Zirial when they initially met in battle. That name given to her meant sparrow. A name that he used when addressing her. Now it was her turn to speak it.
"Lykos, your zirial is here. She has found enlightenment through trials and is accepting of what she denied for so long."
