Eventually Marcus' soft laughed fell away. "Well, I am. I suppose I connected here better than Coruscant, or Tython."

"Heena hom nuht boo?"
[But you still run away on mission?]

"I do not run away. I serve the council." Marcus insisted whilst playfully pointing a finger at the holoimage.

"Sheena neb boodu, heem-a-neeht. Hjoon em bedda woomba?" The alien talked slowly.
[You obviously don't impress them, still being a Knight. When are you returning home?]

A smile crossed Marcus' face, as he awaited the finish to the question, before answering. "Obviously not. But, this academy needs me. I will have Hyneris Vau's reliquary sent to Tython as soon as I can commission a shuttle and a student to carry it."

There was a faint, nodding gesture from the Ithorian. "Woomba moon bet."
[The family misses you.]

Marcus gave a nod back to the alien friend and reached to the controls. Cutting off the holotransmission whilst standing,
the Knight was awkwardly flexing his prosthetic hand. Looking over it, he said to himself: "I miss them too."
