Jekin had thought a lot about what Merryn had said by the time Kailen had spoken to him.  He only spoke Basic and Rodese.  Most of the Rodians he had met spoke basic but preferred their native tongue, and he could understand that.  They were being put with an 'Alien Volunteer Corps'?  That sounded quite a lot like a throwaway position, where they send the non-humans to die in waves.  If it was not under the command of General Yusanis and Master Kae, he would have thought himself utterly lost.  He had enough experience with Master Kelluka to know that the Republic had a long way to come on alien equality in fact, if not in law.<br/><br/>General Yusanis did not seem like the kind of man to spend the lives of sentients casually, but he could easily turn into that kind of person if he lost his cool in battle.  He hoped that that would not be how things ended for him.<br/><br/>"There are untold millions of people just in the districts we've been through while we were here.  If we dress the part, no one could tell us apart from anyone else." He gives a soft smile and nods.  "And I happen to know a few...not quite high class but safe enough places for us to spend some time before we head off with the rest of Group Tremendous.  Depends on what you want to do.  Dance?  Dinner?  Catch a sports exhibition?  Hit a club?  Normal people would probably go to a cantina and raise a few shots so they're nice, sleepy, and hungover on the flight out, but that's up to you guys."<br/><br/>For all of his misgivings with the 'Alien Volunteer Corps', he rather liked the 'Group Tremendous' part.  It made him feel like they would be making a difference just by showing up to the fight.  A wiser man would know that Groups were rarely named 'Pathetic' or 'Minuscule', but a wiser man would have stayed in the Jedi Temple to contemplate rather than head off to war.
