In reply to Koi Sundar (msg # 106):
It was a short journey from the Gamorrean Rose to the Senate offices, though taken by foot, was longer than expected. It at least provided an opportunity for Tsareevah, AG, and Wix to more slowly absorb the environments of the galactic capital, a starkly different environment than any of them had yet seen or been a part of. Lots of pointing, gasps, and smiles took place. If only such wonder was returned. For all the high ideals of the Republic, the motley collection you travled with, including a Jawa, a Herglic, and an alien species yet unknown to civilized society, was met with raised eyebrows. No open hostility or slurs to speak of, but certainly a casual recognition of the oddness of this traveling group.
"Remember everyone" Torin began as you all finally made inside the offices
"These are important people doing important work, mostly. We should try to be respectable, and respectful, so nothing brash and loud, please."
"Yes, Space Dad" Oro responded mockingly, but was complaint.
Everyone was quiet as they followed his lead, going up a large set of sophisticated marble steps, before coming around to a narrow office with double doors, one door left open. Torin knocked on the outside for a response.
"Yes? Who is it?" A soft voice responds.
"Oh, just an old friend, coming in from the wilds of space."
There was an audible gasp
"Torin!" followed by the hurried steps of heeled feet. Out rushed a woman in a wonderful, though perhaps overblown, dress attire "I'm so glad to see you again. Why, I could kiss you if it wasn't for that mask of yours."
"That hasn't stopped you before, you know. I got you something." He pulls a datapad out of his jacket.
"From your mission? Was it successful?"
"Above and beyond" He said, finally turning to you and the others.
"We were able to find an inhabited planet brimming with life, including our newest friend here, Tsareevah. She doesn't talk much, but we've had help with that from our other friend."
He extends his hand to you specifically
"Senator, may introduce to you Koi Sundar, Jedi Knight, as well as her friend Wix, also a Jedi. Koi, Wix, I am happy to introduce you to Senator Kioxi Tarinna, of the Naboo."

The Senator was silent, her eyes large as she saw the two of you, able to do little more than bow in response.
