Duros


JediRP Staff

Recommended Posts

Duro (also known as Duros) was the heavily polluted and depopulated homeworld of the Duros species. Located on the Corellian Trade Spine in the Core, the planet itself was mostly abandoned, mainly housing food processing plants. Most of the population lived in one of the twenty orbiting cities. Duro was also home to a large number of orbital shipyards.

  • Esterhazy changed the title to Duros

Kadi stepped aboard one of the many orbital stations around Duros, looking out at the planet through the observation deck. The planet suffered under the whims of absolute industry, the Duros shipyards and manufactories choking out most living beings. She couldn't imagine what would drive a species to do such a thing to their own home. It was a type of pollution utterly alien to what she was used to- More complex, more complicated. When she had to cleanse a world of the effects of the Dark Side, it was as simple as righting the natural order, and removing whatever was causing a disruption in the Force. To cleam a planet of the smog that covered Duros would take trillion of credits, and probably close to a hundred years. Even still, such a restoration could never be perfect. She wondered what species would never see the galaxy again, what plants were forever lost to industry. 

 

She was glad she didn't need to approach the planet itself. The hopeful she was to collect and assess was on one of the many orbital stations, the one that she had just boarded. She had left her lightspear aboard her shuttle, opting to bring an more traditional saber that had been gifted to her. She wore her traditional Jedi robes- she knew who she was here to find was a Duros, and expecting her, and hoped that without a way to contact him he would be able to spot her in the crowd. She closed her eyes, reaching out in the Force like a beacon, telling the Jedi hopeful her location.

     The Duros Monk heard the Force Beacon call out to him as he meditated inside of his room. There was no mistaking the Beacon's meaning, which was that his calls to the Jedi Order had not gone unanswered, and that meant that he needed to move out immediately. He then grabbed his Durasteel Quarterstaff and began to walk towards the intended meeting location, and as he walked he thought about what his new life would be like in the Jedi Order. He understood that it would be somewhat familiar due to his monk background. He then turned the corner and found himself inside the room of the meeting location. The room was crowded and it even had an interesting smell. He then looked around the crowd and singled out the woman that he was supposed to meet with.

 

     Roozemom Ramzenssor walked down to the woman named Kadi Silan and then he bowed his head in honor. He continued to think about his future within the Jedi Order as he waited to be addressed. While he understood that the situation would be somewhat familiar, he also knew that the Jedi Order was much different than most Monastic Orders were due to their specialization in the Force.

As the Duros man approached her with a bow, Kadi returned the gesture. She wasn't one who felt bowing to a Jedi was necessary, but she understood it was a sign of respect, not fear, and the least she could do was reciprocate the gesture. He was older than most hopefuls she'd met, but the Jedi order was still rebuilding after the Sith rule. They weren't exactly in a place to be picky about who they recruited. She gestured to her ship with a smile.

 

"Roozemom I presume? Please, come aboard. We have much to discuss regarding the Jedi Order."

 

She turned and walked towards the ship, feeling a pang of guilt. She had returned to Felucia, seen Eisa again, but their duties made those meeting incredibly rare. It was difficult keeping a close friendship and burgeoning relationship going in such conditions, and for the briefest of moments she felt resentment towards her position as a Jedi. What she would give to just settle down with Eisa on a planet like Kashyyyk and spend a few years uninterrupted by Sith attacks and hopeful recruits.

 

But she quashed those feelings as fast as they arrived. It would be a pale immitation of peace, knowing that they both had the knowledge and ability to help the galaxy heal, but had chosen to run away. In a way, it would be even more miserable for them both. It was wishful thinking to believe they could drop everything and hide from the world together. She looked back towards the Duros, addressing him again. "Why choose the Jedi Order now, after so long living as a monk with the Force?"
