Galactic Field Trips, Monday

"Hello, everybody." Lana smiled. "Today we can step through the portal before I do our introduction." She waved them through, where they came out in front of a stately home in a cool climate (which they had been alerted to dress for).

"Welcome to Alderaan. It's somewhat less cosmopolitan than either of the capitals. The inhabited area is largely forests and mountains. The cities are smaller and largely centered around noble houses - House Thul and House Organa are two of the major houses locally. We won't be visiting either of them, though; politics are very important here, and which house is aligned with which government can be a touchy subject. The Alliance's staunchest allies here are the indigenous species, the killiks."

She nodded to a man standing a little way off, and he came over and bowed. "Good afternoon. We are Vector Hyllus, the Dawn Herald of the Oroboro nest. We will be your guide through the nest today, where you will encounter some of our art and technology. Most killiks cannot speak Basic, but joiners like us can and will. Please let us know if you have any questions."

Lana nodded to Vector. "There is also an aerial tour of the planet, which I highly recommend because the thrantas are SO EFFING COOL OMG, but which is entirely optional if you have difficulties with heights."

“Wednesday it is,” Watts said in agreement. “I look forward to it.”

Watts glanced upwards, where one of said thrantas was currently circling nearby.

"Ah," he said. "No. Probably not. That is- a bit too high off the ground for my liking."

And yet he still wanted to experience travel by airplane someday. He was nothing if not a man of occasional contradictions.
