Bringing herself back to the present, Maila could no longer keep her focus away from the center of the room: Aslain himself. Her longtime friend looked much older than she remembered seeing him, even though itād only been a handful of months since their last meeting. His once gleaming fur now looked dull, his eyes were sunken in, and if she didnāt know the monarch so well she would have believed he was well and truly ill. The thought alone sent a chill down her spine. He was sat in a makeshift chair, but he looked like he was about ready to fall asleep.
Of course, he had run himself ragged in the time since Skiraās destruction; it was just like him to put his peopleās needs above his own. There had been no Maila around to keep his sleep or drinking schedules intact, after all. Despite how exhausted the king looked, though, the budding glee on his features as he registered her presence was unmistakable.
āMaila,ā Aslain elected to greet her in Basic rather than Skir, his rough, guttural accent like music to the Jediās ears. Jumping off of his chair with a forced ease, Copper tensed as the king approached, but Maila waved him down with a paw. She immediately closed the distance between them, barely holding in a laugh as she felt her commanderās surprise, each of their heads resting atop the otherās shoulders as they met in a familiar embrace. āI canāt begin to describe how good it is to see you well.ā
āAnd I you, my dearest friend,ā Maila mewed softly. Her Basic was less accented than his, for obvious reasons, but centuries on Coruscant had been unable to completely scrub her Skiran accent away. The two friends parted hesitantly, with Maila turning to face Copper. āMy companion here is Commander Copper, of the 296th Legion of the Galactic Armed Regiment.ā
āYour Highness.ā Removing his bucket, Copper gave an awkward bow. Neither of them missed the sudden intakes of breath from both Aslain and Hyenae. The left side of Copperās face was covered with scarring, leaving part of his lip as well as a good portion of his curly red hair missing, but his gruesome features didn't stop him from being the kind-hearted Commander that Maila had grown to know over the past couple of years. He was one of Mailaās dearest friends, alongside the King.
