You've been seen by a coolly efficient (what you hope is a) medical professional - after all they did give you a shot of something. Then you were handed a slew of things you're still trying to process - communication devices, a ring (which is also a key?), a piece of transparent film that's flashing information. And clothing, that was a thoughtful gesture. And then there was the explanation - You've been taken (isn't that a nice way of saying 'kidnapped') by that floating orb of light, you can't leave, but while you're here you get room and board. Is that really a fair trade? Oh, and to top everything off, you have a set of gem like stones set into your chest, that you can't remove. Before you know it, you've moved with the crowd towards the shuttle and now that you are sitting down, it's now suddenly sinking in. You are so very far from home. [NOTE: Please note that the actual arrival process is different from the above scenario - please see the New Arrivals Page for a detailed explanation of the actual arrival process.] ~ ☼ ~ [Cafeteria] You’re hungry, and though the smells coming from the cafeteria are strange, they are alluring. The grumble in your belly tells you it’s worth chancing. ~ ☼ ~ [Multipurpose Common Area] You’re bored but haven’t quite worked up the courage to venture out into the greater parts of the station. The common area of the residential community seems like it might provide some distractions. And the view out the large windows lining one wall is simply stunning. ~ ☼ ~ [The Center Station Central Gardens] In an environment where spatial expansion is finite, it seems extravagant to house a garden this big. What looks like giant trees at first glance, turn outo be the wire structures that rise up six stores before fanning out actually house various breeds of creeping vines. There are two levels of raised walkways that wind around the vine structures. The ground level also wraps lazily through various plots of vegetation. There is enough variety of plants here to keep anyone interested for hours. ~ ☼ ~ [Cemetery Ring] If you’re in more for a somber atmosphere, the Cemetery Ring is open to everyone. The first sign posted outside the door reads "We are the lights that shines brightest against the night." The sign below it simply says "All are welcome." This wide corridor, that traverses the whole very top of the Inner Rings, is dimly lit, but pinpoints of light twinkle all over the wall. The wall juts out in an effort to create more surface area for memorials to those Owmi who have passed on to the next life since the Owmi started their nomadic journey. The peacefulness of the room is inviting. ~ ☼ ~

Concerned!Mom is concerned even if she doesn't know it yet. :D

Padmé's thoughts are broken away by the sound of the young voice. Her fingers still hang on to the necklace as her gaze fixes on the young girl. She smiles recalling with Anakin had given it to her. He might have been around her age.

"Hello there. Thank you, it was a gift from a good friend." A good friend who happened to be her husband now. It was something that the young Senator would never have counted on. One of life's little surprises. But as much as she missed Anakin and worried about him being away due to the war, that wasn't here and now. She could think of that later.

She looked around for a moment trying to spot an adult, or the young girl's parents.

"May I ask what are you doing here all alone?" she said turning to fully face the young girl. "Where are your mommy and daddy?"

Leia smiled right back, nodding. Her mommy had told her about the necklace, and why it was special. That was the main reason she wore it most all the time, along with the hologram necklace her daddy Anakin had made for her; a special thing from each of her birth parents.

"Both my daddies are at work, and I just got out of school," Leia explained. "That's why none of us could go meet my mommy right away when she arrived at the Sacred Keep. But I came looking for her as soon as I could, and I'm sure they will too."

[nabooangel]

It surprised Padme to hear that she had two daddies but she smiled nonetheless wondering what grade the little girl was in and what her daddies did. In a way she almost reminded her of her niece Ryoo. She envied her sister at times getting to have a family and husband without having to hide it.

"Did you eventually find her?" Padme asked not knowing the truth.

[princess_weia]

Leia smiled. There was more than a hint of mischief to it, as if she knew a secret. Not that she planned on keeping it for long. "Yep," Leia said. "I just did." And now to wait for it to click.
