Amalia sat looking out the window. She was in her room at the Jedi Academy, on some planet called Yavin IV.
Back on her home planet of Syrenia, they would be making dinner around this time. Her grandfather would be cleaning the fish and her grandmother would be gathering milk from the ghost moths. It had been Amalia's job to heat the water and boil the milk, separating the silk from the liquid. She wondered who would do that, now that she wasn't there.

Everything had changed the day that the man called Skywalker had come down from the sky to their planet, wanting to take Amalia with him. Despite his protests, her grandparents and all of the other Syrenians had been convinced that he was one of the gods, returning to take Amalia with him to become one of the higher beings. Since her father had disappeared everyone has assumed Amalia was the 'Star Child', sharing the blood of the gods. So of course when Skywalker appeared to take her away they practically forced her out the door. They hadn't even seemed sad to see her leave.

Amalia hadn't spoken much on the trip out. She mainly sat and observed, and she had learned that Master Skywalker was no god. None of the people she met were. They were just people. But Master Skywalker had a gift. A gift that made him one of a group called Jedi. A gift that Amalia also shared. He claimed it was how he had found her. He wanted to teach her how to use this gift, something that he called 'The Force', to make her stronger. For what reason she still didn't fully understand. All she knew was they she likely was never going to see Syrenia again.
Amalia wasn't sure how she felt about this. About all of it. It was confusing and upsetting, it was interesting and fascinating, it was unnerving and terrifying. Sometimes she felt such anger and sadness, but other times she felt happiness and curiosity. At this point she wasn't quite such what to think or feel anymore. She had already seen so many things, different species of creatures that she had never imagined existed. But Luke Skywalker had assured her that everything would come together and make sense for her in time. So she would just have to trust him.
For now...
