"Eh, what else is new with Nomad?"
Cannon jokes, then turning more serious he adds.
"I heard you wanted to learn about the Mandalorians. Any particular reason?"
English
-
"Honestly? Seeing how hard they pushed to get you back.... I think it made me realize I dont have anyone like that. My parents have passed on, and I don't know where my sister is. My mentor has left, and I don't form friendships easily. I just want to feel as though, to someone, I matter. You know? "
-
Cannon nods in understanding. "You want a clan, in other words." He says.
-
"Yeah. And also because you guys are pretty awesome fighters." [b]He tried changing the subject after, well after that[/b]
-
[spoiler]NOOOO!! NATHANIEL!!![/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]What [/spoiler]

[spoiler]Nothing[/spoiler]

Cannon laughs. "Yeah, the armor is just too hard to pass up, isn't it?"
-
"Actually, I wanted to show a sketch. If I get to choose my own armour that is... Or do you guys have uniform?"
-
"The only tjing uniform is the T visor. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. The clans only let Mandos join, so unless you plan on joining the culture, I won't be able to help you. Are you willing to do that?"
-
"Tell me what I need to do...."
-
"Alright. It's actually pretty simple. There are six official rules, we call them the resol'nare, the six actions. You follow those, you're a Mando." He says.
-
"Six rules? So like the ten commandments from The Jewish? Or was that Hindu? I'm bad with earth history."
-
"Something like that. Basically you have to wear a suite of armor, which dosent have to be 24/7, be willing to defend the clan, support the clan in some way, raise any kids you have as Mandos, learn Mando'a, and be willing to answer the Mand'alores call should he summon the clans."
-
"Mando'a? That will be the most difficult part for me."
-
"Shouldn't be too hard. It's a pretty simple language. My job will be teaching and preparing you ro join the clan." He tells him.
-
"So what's the first step in your teachings, teacher? Master? Sensei! No that's already used..."
-
"No need for titles, vod. I don't outrank you. We're all equals in the clan." Cannon tells him.
-
"Got it. So what's the first step?"
-
"Well, I usually start with a brief history of the Mando'ade, that means Mandalorians." Cannon tells him.
-
"Mando'ade. Got it. I have a basic idea of what's going now. The Mando'ade are in war with the empire, and are mostly winning.
-
"That's just the past twenty years or so. I meant the whole history." Cannon tells him.
-
"Well than. Should I sit down?"
-
"Probably a good idea." Cannon gestures to the fallen tree he's sitting on.
-
[b]Nathaniel sat down beside him, listening intently to Cannon's coming words [/b]
-
"Alright. So, originally, the Mandalorians were all one species, called the Taung. Ugly, gray skinned guys with fangs and yellow eyes. They came from Coruscant, back before it was a city. The oldest records of them we have is from a war between them and the original humans on Coruscant, which they lost due to sheer numbers. The Taung were driven off Coruscant and eventually ended up on a planet called Roon."
