*Mount Asutoron. Damiens home away from home on the almost non existant world of Nem'Vaar. The base of the mountain swirled with the gusts of wind which circulated through the air due to the larg lake at its foot which rested silently in the night.
The moons luminaric glow hovered over the planet though now it seemed as if its majestic glow was focused solely on the mountain itself, flaunting its radience to its fullest as if presenting itself to the man who gazed upon it with a restless mind, which contained equally restless thoughts
The feelings that flowed throught the body of the Shadourian were of a culmination of almost every nature. Confidence, fear, bravery, lonliness.
All of which he had expereinced every single second of the recent days of his life. He had done much, and would soon do more, much more.
He drew in a deep breath of the crisp air that whisked his hair every which way, and his cloak as well, following its every movement, and released that same breath trying to cast out the swell of feelings that had built up inside of him, his efforts were of course in vein, though that didnt stop him from trying again. Takeing into special account that those very breaths had a number on each of them.*

*She pulled her cloak tightly about her and took a deep breath. Arael didn't know why she came here. Perhaps it was the sense of peace she felt here. She knew she could come here and be alone. No one else knew she came here except for Damien. Damien....her thoughts drifted to him as she thought about him. As the wind swept through the plains and she heard the distant crash of the water upon the shoreline, she closed her eyes taking it all in. A smile came to her face as she remembered Damien by the stream on Naboo. Those times seemed alot simpler and more peaceful. Those thoughts were the ones that kept her going strong. Opening her eyes and looking up at the moonlight, she took a deep breath of the clean air here. Her blue eyes moved across the scenery towards the mountain framed by the moonlight. Wrapping her cloak more tightly about her from the cool breeze, she looked down and made her way towards it. She felt the need to be as close to the stars as possible and just laying there and looking at them.*

*Never once did his gaze leave the moonlight on nights such as these, though never once did he feel this way before, never had he felt so distant from her..There it was again, his thoughts comeing back to him, he knew he needed to focus especially in times like these, though he didnt even bother to try. He knew if he did it would be yet another vein attempt.
The wind breezed over him once again carrying with it a warmth, though faint it was the one thing he had taken a full notice to all night, and so he turned his gaze, his head pivioting from its fixed position on the moon to take notice of the best sight he had seen in days.
His face began to take a lighter expression, when he took into acount the effects of the recent times and what they were doing to him. Now he was even seeing her, as if his memories werent enough, the force allowed a harsh yet pleasent reminder of what he had left behind on Onderon that he now longed for since his final footsteps from that room. His gaze returned to the moonlight as he made another vein attempt to lose himself in thought.*

*Holding her robes and cloak up a bit, she begins her ascent to the mountain grabbing for a hold a couple of times where it grew more steep. The mountain from this point shut out all light, but she wasn't afraid. The darkness was almost comforting to her. She was tired of being in the spotlight on Onderon. Arael began to understand a little how Damien felt in that moment. There again he came to her mind. She couldn't go very long in the day without her thoughts returning to him. She bit her lower lip trying to concentrate on climbing the mountain as she neared the top. Still she couldn't keep him out of her thoughts. She wondered how he was. Since he left her on Onderon, she hadn't heard any word from him. A fight was about to start on Coruscant and she knew he would go. Perspiration filled her brow as she finally came to the top and let out the breath she was holding and hoisted herself up the rest of the way. Standing to her full height, she looked up at the moon and began to pull off her cloak to cool her body. Folding it up and putting it down on the ground, she brushed her hair out of her face. It was then she saw a figure at the entrance to a nearby cave. She blinked a couple of times not sure if her mind was playing tricks with her or not. The moonlight upon his face was unmistakable though. It was Damien.*

*His gaze at the moon didnt last long before he glanced back down to the surface of the planet to view once again Nem'Vaars surface in search of Arael, or what he thought was her, though it was a harsh reminder that he was no longer a few rooms down from her, that he could no longer simply step around a corner to see her face and take her into his arms, he looked anyway, there was nothing there now, the ground lay peacefully and undisturbed as if nothing had traversed across it for as long as it existed.
This sight of emptiness reminded him of just how alone he was in these times, he dearly missed simply speaking her name and hearing her reply
"Arael..."

*Her footsteps were slow at first as she made her way towards the cave unwilling for her heart to be disappointed if it wasn't him. Yet, as she took each step, she found her strides getting longer and her pace quickening. The wind rushes across the mountaintop stinging her eyes with it's cool air causing them to fill with tears as she made her way towards him. Her eyes didnt falter or move off of him. She needed to feel his arms around her. Speaking out but finding her breath catching in her throat, she calls his name.*
"Damien?"

*Damien heart skipped a beat upon hearing her voice, He despratley wanted to turn to face her, to take her into his arms and hold her like he once did too long agoo. Though the pain of it all if the force yet again decided to tease him with her presence. Though if he turned and she was there, passing up another second was would be unbareable, so with that he turned his head to gaze upon her.
"Arael!"
His heart raced as he dashed the few feet that was between them to embrace her tightly, and place a passionate kiss upon her lips*

*She wrapped her arms about him holding onto him as if they hadn't seen each other in ages. Days had passed since they last spoke and seen each other. With all that had happened to Kyra and the meeting with the Jedi Council, she was worn out. Her tears met his cheeks as they kissed for a long time. When she pulled away looking into his eyes, she smiled at him as the tears were still streaming down. Leaning in and resting her head against his chest again, she spoke finally.*
"I've missed you so much, Damien. I never thought I would find you here. The Force is smiling upon us today."

"And its pearly white."

*She chuckled at his comment and moved one hand from around him to wipe her eyes. Arael pulls back to look into his eyes kissing him quickly again before pulling away.*
"Things on Onderon have been so horrible. I had to get away. All the while I kept wishing you were there. You might be angry with me...."

"Not at all...Whats been happening?"
*He saw the concern and stress in her eyes from all of the recent events, which would make it harder to tell her of what was about to happen*

*She takes a deep breath and breaks his gaze to look down at his tunic while her hands play with the fabric*
"I sent her into exile....Kyra that is. She was too much of a threat for Onderon and the Republic. Selae having control over her at times...it was the only way I knew how to protect her from herself and protect everyone else. In time, perhaps she can find herself again and we can bring her back."
*She looks up at his face.*
"I didn't know what else to do. She's in the Ankus system."

"I investigated that SOS on Telos...things arent always waht they seem it appeares"

*She furrowed her eyebrows at his words.*
"What happened there? I had thought you were coming back after you finished there."

"I went to Telos, Laili was there, so was Ussej she was in a bad condidtion and with my presence there it didnt make Ussej too uncomfortable. We swaped words and a fight broke out, he was defeated, yet i let him live. Laili needs him."
*There was a breif pause as if he only used it to catch his breath before speaking again*
"I thought it best if you didnt know, but i didnt return on shedule because ive been here, ive spent a lot of time here recently, training, like ive never trained before..."
