Back home

Your shuttle lands in Sundari, the capital. Your master has already arranged for you to meet Duchess Satine Kryze, the ruler of your home world, Mandalore. You are escorted to her throne room where she gives you an audience. She is surrounded by her royal guard, even if she is a pacifist, she doesn't let her guard down. She too knows the truth about your parents... That they are members of **** Watch... That group has been trying to depose her for years now, it is only natural she doesn't trust you at first sight.

Satine: Jedi knight Lana from Clan Ordo, step forward. Welcome to Mandalore once again!

Lana: Thank you for taking some time to hear my request your highness!

Satine: I am sorry but I have urgent businesses to attend to... Let me get straight to the point. Your master has already told me you are here to meet your father.

Lana: Yes, if you could provide me with the information of his whereabouts I would trouble you no more.

Satine: I am afraid I cannot do that. As much as I would like to know where those who try to end my life reside at the moment, all I know is that they are hiding somewhere on the moon Concordia. I can arrange for a shuttle to take you there and back, but you have to find them on your own once on that moon.

Lana: That will be enough, to begin with, thank you, your highness!

Satine: And please do me a favour... Should you meet them... do not join them. The situation is problematic enough, the last thing this planet needs right now is a Jedi supporting **** Watch... I can't deny a child's wish to meet his parents, no matter their crimes. But I have to ask you this. If you won't do that for my sake, do it for the sake of your people on this planet. Save them from further bloodshed. I do not ask you to report about them... only to stay out of their political games.

Lana: You have my word, your highness!

Satine: Very well. You may go now, the shuttle is already waiting for you outside.

You leave and board the shuttle. It takes you to Concordia, just as the duchess promised. Once you land the pilot remains inside. You take a few steps before you spot a few Mandalorians flying towards you. You reach out for your lightsaber but do not ignite it... They might not be coming to fight you... They land in front of you.

Mandalorian: Are you Lana from Clan Ordo?

Lana: Yes.

Mandalorian: Come with us. We were expecting your arrival.

Lana: Expecting me...?

Mandalorian: You will be told everything once we get back to the base.

Soon another Mandalorian arrives with a speeder bike to take you to the base while the others fly back. They were **** into hiding and showed themselves to nobody, as they had been discovered not long ago by Obi-Wan Kenobi and had to relocate to avoid attacks from the duchess. Since your parents are members of the **** Watch, you are allowed inside. Once there you meet your father, Rantar Ordo after nearly 15 years... All you could do to keep contact was to send holovids to each other, but you couldn't meet in person ever since. He rushes forward and hugs you.

Rantar: Lana! Such a fine lady you have become! You can't imagine how happy I am to finally see you again!

Lana: It's good to see you too father!

Rantar: No day passed without thinking of you, ever since the Jedi arrived and told us you were to be taken and trained! Tell me it was worth it!

Lana: I hope so... All I regret is that I wasn't here for you when mother...

Rantar: That is not your fault Lana! Your mother knew the risks she had taken... Even if you were here, you couldn't have changed her fate...

Lana: You can't be so certain about that!

Rantar: There is so much we should talk about! I had been waiting for this day for the past one and a half decades! Let me take a better look at my beautiful daughter!

Lana: Han, she is only about average at best...!

Rantar: Nonsense! You are as beautiful as your mother was at your age! I can still see herself in front of me... By the way, there is something she wanted you to have...

Lana: Me?

Your father takes you to a big chest.

Rantar: This chest contains the armour and weapons of your mother. She has always wanted you to have it should anything happen to her... So now it belongs to you.

Lana (with some tears in your eyes): Father...

Rantar: Just accept it. She would be proud! And you seem to be just the perfect size to wear it! Let me help you try it on!

Lana: Father there is a small problem... I can't put it onto my robes...

Rantar: Of course not, these female armours are designed to have nothing under them. Your bodies are thinner them the male bodies and they follow your lines more perfectly to give you greater agility! There is a secluded place around these big boxes, you can change there without anybody noticing you. I'll stand watch, don't worry!

Lana: Okay... I'll try it on.

You take the armour and disrobe. As you are getting closer to nudity, you keep looking in all directions to make sure really nobody can see you... But nobody does, so you can get the armour on in peace. You have always wanted to have your own armour! Once it is on you you show it to your father. He seems to be happier than ever!

Rantar (crying): Lana...! You make me so happy, I can't even find the words to express it...!

Lana: Father, I have only taken an armour on! Not as if I hadn't been dreaming of wearing one myself! But I am still missing the jetpack and the additional weapons on...

?: And those don't belong to you yet, as they have to be earned...

Lana: Who is it?

Rantar: Pre, from Clan Vizsla... He is the leader of **** Watch.

Pre: How amusing that your daughter has finally arrived to join us!

Lana: I am not here to join you... I am here to meet my father.

Pre: And this is what I was afraid of... You just barge in here, only to take away the fine armour and weapons of one of our best! Your mother wanted you to inherit her belongings in order to continue her legacy and fight alongside us to reclaim Mandalore for the true Mandalorians!

Rantar: Pre, leave her out of this for now... In time...!

Pre: In time what? Do you think if you let her leave now with all these things she will ever care to come back to you? If she doesn't share our view of the future, she shouldn't have come to this planet in the first place!

Lana: I didn't come for the armour and weapons... I only came here to meet my father.

Pre: And as a Jedi, are you going to report our location to the duchess? Or your precious order?

Lana: No!

Pre: How can we ensure that?

Rantar: Stop it Pre! Leave my daughter be!

Pre: If she is a true Mandalorian she should prove it! If she really deserved her armour she could easily earn it in a fight too!

Lana: I am ready to fight you if that is what you want!

Rantar: Lana no! Don't do that!

Pre: Very well kid! I was going to let you have your armour as a show of respect to your mother, for all the great services she has done for us... But her weapons are going to stay with me until you prove your worth! It's not the armour or the weapons that make a true Mandalorian, but their fighting skills! Pretty sure the Jedi didn't teach you much about those!

Lana: You will see it soon enough!

You ignite your lightsaber and prepare to try your armour in combat for the first time.

Rantar: Lana, put that down! You can't defeat him!

Pre: Hm, a lightsaber on a Jedi, how original... But I just happen to have my own...

He ignites the darksaber, the symbol of the true ruler of Mandalore.

Lana: The darksaber?!

Pre: Surprised? It can only be wielded by the strongest of us all! If you beat me, you can have it and your weapons too! All of **** Watch will follow you until you are beaten as well! Ready to face me in combat?

Rantar: Lana step back! Don't start a fight you can't win!
