morgynleriI did manage to get words after finishing the bit of artwork.
More of Darra Thel-Tanis in As It All Burns:
"Your army, we doubt not." Master Yoda is looking at Dooku's hologram with a sad expression - maybe faintly disappointed, Darra thinks.
Dooku meets Yoda's gaze for a long moment before sighing. "I am not the Order's enemy, Master Yoda, and I never have been. Only a scholar beyond the bounds set by the Council." He looks away from Yoda, meeting Darra's eyes a moment. "Seeking methods by which I can better aid those who have need of it, including the Jedi Order, and I have met few who do not appreciate that aid."
"We're not ungrateful for your aid." Master Windu holds up a hand when Dooku frowns. "Maybe, in time, a facility beyond what already exists on Serenno can be built. At the moment, the Order simply does not have the means to justify the expense of building a Temple when we cannot be sure anywhere is safe. No matter how well-trained or supplied your military is."
"Master Yoda, Master Windu, Count Dooku." Valorum speaks for the first time since the meeting began, his voice steady despite the tension in the air. "As it is clear the Jedi Order do not feel they have the means to erect such an edifice, and currently the budget of the Confederacy does not have a surplus which can safely be dedicated to a monument, shall we table that discussion for another time?"
As well as that of Dooku's loyalties and beliefs, for which Darra is glad. She's not sure how they would view her, if ever her actions and thoughts since Radnor came up. Certainly she feels closer to Dooku than she does to the Order any longer, and her loyalties are firmly to Valorum and the Confederacy over even the Order. How would any Jedi trust her, when she had chosen to put a person over the Order, even before she'd been certain she couldn't return to the Order?
I also have some bits with clones in this AU, but I'm not confident enough of my characterization to post that snippet yet. I do have some thoughts on the importance of them to the AU, though, and to some of the other AUs.
