Taking advantage of her newfound time, Elora found her eyes wandering along the Mandalorian's torso, landing on a carefully crafted signet on his armored right shoulder piece. The image of a bullhorn lay ingrained on the shiny beskar and she pushed back the urge to feel the edges of the metal between her fingertips. The signet suited him but the metal on his left shoulder lay dormant and untouched. This made her mind wonder as he scrubbed at his dirtied rifle. What signet would he earn next? And would she still be beside him when he did?
Life had never seemed caring for Elora and her moments with the Mandalorian felt ever-changing.
She hoped this time, change would be in her favor.
