FORM: Sending Crystal
SENDER: Obi-Wan Kenobi
RECIPIENT: Everyone
WHAT: An announcement, and a thought-experiment
WHEN: After having resolved the Leliana/Assassination plot
NOTES: n/a

This is Obi-Wan Kenobi. I apologize for the delay in doing so, but I'd like to make an announcement; I've been appointed as the liason for the Rifter population.

For this reason, if you have a concern about a particular Rifter which cannot be peacefully resolved on your own, or if any Rifter has need of information, or support, please don't hesitate to contact me. I know we may not seem like any kind of cohesive group, but you aren't alone. Please, try to remember that.

[He clears his throat, then and continues.]

As for the rest of you, I have a question. Nothing too serious, just a little... oh, call it a thought-exercise: I first heard this one as a child.

If your house was on fire, what's the first thing you'd take out of it?

Many talented children don't have families financially capable of supporting them. Many families consider it an honor to have a child receive an offer to go to the temple. More than once, young Jedi have been rescued out of slavery, before deciding to stay on as a trainee-- or are orphaned. Younglings can come from any species, any race, any people or situation, provided they're willing and able to embrace the Jedi teachings.

[Taking children away from their families? It doesn't quite sit right with Ariadne. And even if rescuing slaves is more than noble...

She's just not sure she yet understands the difference.

Best not to judge. Not until she learns a little more.]

I think I'd like to know more about Jedi teachings. Perhaps we could talk further over a drink or something?

[obi_wanmanshow]

Yes, I'd like that. I'm planning to spend this evening at the tavern already-- would you care to meet, there?

[demonicbeauty]

Yes. I think I would like that very much.

Thank you.
