The Meeting

Subject: The Meeting Tue Jul 21, 2009 7:41 pm

Master Widdimur sat on one of the Council Chairs... Amongst him were the other Jedi Councilors. Back when he was a Jedi Knight, and before his Exile, all these Council Chairs would have a Jedi fulfilling them, today, in this recovering time... The Jedi Order was crippled, and their Council down in size. The number of current Councilmen went from 12 to 5, thankfully... An older friend, Master Potu was still with him. He recognized all these Council Members. The one who started this particular meeting, was Jedi Master Widdimur, it was going to lead into a discussion about the Jedi Count, and different ways to aid the Jedi and Republic in recovering. Once everyone had situated themselves, Jedi Master Loff, a Berchestian Male spoke up. "Well, we are all gathered here today. What is it you have called us for Master Widdimur?" Asked the Berchestian with his soothing, intellectual tone. The tattoos on his forehead especially stuck out compared to the rest of them, but, it was a unique natural trait on all his people. Master Widdimur turned his head, his eyes appearing calm, his fur a tannish-white, and spoke. "I have called upon the Council based on the accord of the Jedi and their dwindling numbers... With all three Enclaves, considering the Temple to be one, it places only 50-110 Jedi on average in each. In the past, the numbers were much higher, ranging from 300-450. Even our dormitories are growing cold and empty..." Explained the Kushiban with his soft, wise tone. "With this in mind... I'd also like to mention the Republic, and our support being given... Perhaps we have also put too much Jedi in the Republic's stead?" Brought up a Twi'Lek Female... In addition to what Master Widdimur said. "I am concerned for that as well. We've already given the Republic 30-60 of our Jedi from each enclave, for their efforts in reconstructing the Republic after their own war efforts, meant to achieving their own goals. Perhaps we have gone too far with their aid... In the near future the Jedi may need to assisst the Republic, but, with the lack of Jedi to honorably send out, it could jeopardize the entire Order." Added Master Widdimur once more. "With all these problems... I've been seeking some assisstance with a solution by the Council, all of us." Finalized the Kushiban softly... He then waited to give everyone a chance to think, or speak up.

Master Potu had kindly waited for the council to allow him to speak, "Agree with you master widdimur, I must, on a few things, correct we grow low in numbers, you are, though slowly renewing the teachings of jedi on to others, we are, however a wise decision to setup a force to recruit new force sensitives and bring them to the temple if they are willing to do so would it be, lower our affairs with the republic, I also agree that we must, but this wisely, we must do, if the republic notice that we are playing our part it could cause a conflict bewtween our alliance and our reputation not", Master Potu explained. Master Widdimurs suggestions were wise and helped with many unresolved problems. "Master widdimur, to lead a group of jedi whom to recruit new force sensitives willing to serve for the greater good of the galaxy may I suggest you be the one, since the noble councilor to bring that wise idea upon us, you were, allow us to do less and recover more, the other councilors including myself will work on treaties with the republic that will, but still remain worthy allies, though rely on one anothers skills to deal with appropriate problems for our levels in the times to come, upon those treaties we must", Master Potu explained in hopes of agreement from the other councilors. "Something to say about this discussion to further progress, does anyone have, or is everyone on an agreement", Master Potu said as he awaited a response from the other Councilors.

After patiently listening to what the Jedi Grand Master had to say, Master Widdimur chose to speak up before the other Council Members were about to reply to Master Potu's conclusions. "Truthfully, I find lowering the Republic's aid from us to be a good decision. And I agree with doing it wisely. I think this is just, for the Jedi Order needs to focus on recovering itself, before recovering others... If we cannot manage ourselves, then we are not prepared to support the Republic, this being said in all honesty." Replied Master Widdimur, the second eldest of the Council. "While our aid with the Republic is lessened... We should start seeking out Jedi in the Outer Rim. Unfortunately, it is important I bring the Grand War back up. The Outer Rim suffered the most during the War, which is why it'd be wise for us to search for Jedi within it. Anyone damaged by the War effort could be drawing near to the Dark Side, if we can initiate Jedi before those temptations come, we will be successful in gaining allies, and lessening allies for any opposing factions of that nature." Explained Widdimur the Wise calmly. "And, Master Potu, I'd be honored to develop, and lead a force of Jedi to initiate those force sensitives and bring them to a sanctuary, to the Jedi Temple, and Enclaves." Widdimur smiled, Potu also had confidence in his ways, which is why they made good friends. Master Dulgra, an Iridonian Councilor spoke up. "Excuse me... But, how do we plan to maintain a close relationship with the Republic, if we are withdrawing Jedi from their aid? That seems to be the biggest problem, I feel..." Brought up the Iridonian, it was directed towards Master Potu, so, Master Widdimur chose not to speak up. He continued sitting down, the Councilors wouldn't agree to this decision, until Master Potu answered the Iridonian Jedi Councilor's question. However, although the rest of the Council weren't planning on agreeing yet, Master Widdimur was.

Master Potu had awaited for the other councilors to finish so he could answer their questions, "Be able to fully answer that question we will have to initiate many treaties so I will not, though I do know one of the treaties will state that the jedi order, afford sending too many jedi to aid, cannot, the most experienced jedi, however the jedi councilors will play a larger role since we are, equal three experienced jedi masters, one of us could, so by doing this we prevent sending too much jedi and maintain about five experienced jedi that, escorted by a jedi councilor, will be, they must also know that more serious about the problems they have will we be, only be able to send aid for important matters, will we", Master Potu said to the councilors but more specifically to Master Dulgra. "So, master widdimur I appreciate you accepting the responsibility to seek out force sensitives and recruit them to the jedi order if they permit us to do, trust no one greater than you for this responsibility, would I, as we all know, a way with words, you have which is a very valuable skill", Master Potu stated. Master Potu was willing to accept any final words from the councilors before he initiated the plan. Master Potu knew that this would take some time to be fully initiated however he was ready for Master Widdimur to inform him when he was ready to set out of Dantooine and recruit new Jedi.

Master Dulgra took in the Grand Master's strategy. "Ahh... So, we will instead of sending multiple Jedi Knights, and Padawan. We will send a fewer number of Jedi above the rank of Jedi Knight, and perhaps a Councilor from time to time. That certainly is a good idea. I'm sure the Republic would understand, and sign the treaty openly." After Master Dulgra had spoken, the Council Members thought for a moment. "I think we can all agree upon Master Potu's strategy for this matter... I have confidence in this plan as well." Claimed Master Widdimur softly, with a smile. "Well, since I had broughten up this meeting... I shall conclude it. Do we all agree upon this? And have we all clarified on the current, and dire situation at hand?" Asked Master Widdimur to the rest of the Council, realize Master Potu was already for this, he listened to the other Councilmen... They all raised their hands in agreement. It was rare that every Councilmen agreed upon one idea for a specific cause. But, perhaps it was due to their numbers... Although, Master Potu did compliment Master Widdimur's skills as a speaker.

When everyone reached the agreement, Master Widdimur hopped off of his Council Seat, and started walking calmly a bit forward, on his two back legs, using his front legs now, as arms. They were folded into one another behind the Kushiban Councilor, agaisnt his back. "Well, with this concluded as acceptable, I believe i'll set out and gather a small team of Jedi to aid me in gathering further initiates into the Order. First, I must obtain a Transport Ship here on Dantooine." Claimed the Jedi Councilor patiently. Master Widdimur stood in place on two legs... "Well, this session ends now. You may all get back to all actions prior to this meeting now. Thank you for hearing me out." Then, the Kushiban prepared to leave the Council Chambers, waiting for all the other Councilors to leave first, being polite. This would also give them a chance for final words before the Kushiban set out on his recruitment, and journey.

"Glad we all came to an agreement with no complaints I am", Master Potu said. "You go master widdimur before, ship that I feel may help indefinately on your journey to recruit new force sensitives to the order, their is, in the dantooine republic base, given to the jedi order a short time ago, a short distance from here their lies a strong ship that hasn't been used that was, when you arrive in the docking bay at the republic dantooine base, request the sacrarium, strong ship and manufactered by the republics best egineers, it is, which to the order graciously was given", Master Potu explained. Master Potu had ended this meeting and was to begin initiating the plans as soon as the council had left, After telling Master Widdimur to take care he sent a transmission to the supreme chancellor of the republic.

"To see you again supreme chancellor good, sent this messege on behalf of the jedi order and the council, I have, be sending as much jedi as usual I propose a treaty stating that the jedi order will not, as fact that the order needs to recover, it is, however to show our loyalty to our allies sending in further experienced jedi and on some occasions a jedi councilor may send their aid will we be, proposed I do, you have any problems or concerns with this treaty have", Master Potu explained. The Supreme Chancellor shook their head in agreement and accepted the treaty. "Your understanding supreme chancellor I appreciate, as of now I officially initiate this treaty, take care supreme chancellor", Master Potu said as he nodded. Master Potu had then turned off the holocron and left the council chamber.

Master Widdimur learned that there was a Transport Ship perfect for this sort of recruiting expedition. The Sacrarium it was called, Master Potu had informed the Kushiban that it was manufactured by the Republic, and given to the Council on order by the Supreme Chancellor, probably as a symbol of peace. "Well than, I shall departure. Farewell my fellow Councilors. And may the force be with you..." He said, as he began to walk on his hind-legs outside of the Council Chambers. After leaving, and while they were most likely taking care of the treaty, Master Widdimur headed to a Shipyard nearby the Jedi Academy, on it, was The Sacrarium. He was 'decent' at piloting, and wouldn't need instruction, since Transports were easier due to their familiarity. He had entered the Ship, in the center of it was a briefing area, with a platform, central control for the Ship's cameras, ect... Up North in the Ship was a trail that led to the cockpit... Next to it was an operation room, in it were radars, ect... As well as a Shielding Generator, a fulfilling one indeed. The small Jedi Councilor sat on the Seat of the Cockpit, levering it up so he'd have a better reach when using the central controls from the Cockpit. After getting used to, and touring the Ship, he had prepared to lift off... After a minor countdown, the Ship hovered in the air, and drifted away, away from Dantooine. Master Widdimur set course for Tatooine.
