[i]Sho canyon, 320 kilometers south of the Dojo Mountains.
Mandalorian alcove of Ked'ika.
1500 Hours[/i]
The Mandalorians were celebrating, and they have good reason.
Today, a new member is being adopted into their clan.
A transport containing Nathaniel and Cannon passes towards the village fortress in the canyon.
Nathaniel has just received his new armor, which he was allowed to help build.
He does not however yet have the helmet.
[spoiler]Open to Roy.[/spoiler]

"Speaking of ale, where can I get a drink eh?!" [i]Nate looked around the area [/i]
-
Comic leads him towards a bar, Shadow and Cannon in tow.
-
"How drunk should I get? Do i need to be sober at all tonight?"
-
"You should be sober for the ceremony, once it's over you can go ahead and drink yourself under the table." Shadoe says, ordering them all tankards of Mandalorian netra'gal, or black ale.
-
"Ceremony? What ceremony? Wait... I think Cannon taught me about it... Dammit I can't remember."
-
"Yeah, basically you'll step up on the stage, Shames will give you an oath to repeat, and you receive your helmet. Then we all party and drink ourselves under the table... Except for Cannon."
-
"Is it because of his kid? Or is there another reason?"
-
"I just prefer not getting drunk... And I'm pretty sure Iso would kill me if I did." He replies.
-
"Wooooow. Boring." [b]Nate laughed, patting Cannon's back [/b]
-
"Hey, unlike you lot I won't have a hangover." He points out.
-
"Your loss, Vod. I don't have any plans for tomorrow so..."
-
"So have fun passing out. Let's go get this ceremony done so you can do that then." Cannon pats his shoulder.
-
[spoiler]BTW, if you didnt know, Nate's like 6'6[/spoiler] [b]Nate laughed, nodding slightly. [/b] "Agreed!"
-
Cannon leads the group up to the top of a small stage. Shames is waiting for them. "You ready, lad?"
-
"I've been ready, Vod. " [b]Nate said, smiling at Shames[/b]
-
Shames smiles back, then signals for the crowd to quiet down. Nathan notes all their attention is on him. "Do you, Nathaniel, swear to follow the six actions of the Reslo'nare?"
-
"I swear on my life." [b]Nate said this in Mandalorian, near perfectly[/b]
-
"And do you swear to uphold the honor and integrity of this clan, and of all Mando'ade, to the death?"
-
"I swear it, to the death." [b]He continued speaking in Mandlorian, unable to switch back at this point[/b]
-
Shames nods solemnly, then offers Nathaniel his helmet. It sports the Jaig eyes. "Then I welcome you, ner vod, to the ranks of aliit Lok." [spoiler]translation: clan/family Lok[/spoiler]
-
[b]Nate took the helmet in his hands, looking out into the crowd and raising into the air[/b] "FAMILY IS MORE THAN BLOOD!' [b]He screamed, pounding his chest [/b]
-
"OYA MANDA!" Shouts the assembly of Mandos, before breaking into cheers. [spoiler]A Mandalorian motto, dosent translate well. Essentially means "Let's hunt for honor."[/spoiler]
-
[b]Nate turned to shames, smiling[/b] "Thank you for this!" [b]He said over the noise[/b]
-
"You're more than welcome, lad. Now go have some fun." Shames replies, smiling.
-
[spoiler]Should we do a time skip of this? Or just end it? [/spoiler] [b]Nate went into the crowd, getting drinks and enjoying himself [/b]
