Ka' el Darcverse

It had been a long time since the Padawan had relaxed. He had spent his entire childhood in the care of the Jedi Order; a group that had spent most of the last few years on the run, attempting to survive. This required everyone, including children to be ever vigilant and for the most part very serious, but things had changed.
The New Republic had driven a divided Empire from Coruscant causing the once powerfu Imperial Military maching to fracture into warring factions. The Sith Empire had crumbled beneath its own mass and the other Dark Side organizations had divided leadership and were unable to sustain a continued assault against the Jedi, who in the lull had become quite powerful.
Ka' el had spent his life training, studying and training more to become a Jedi, but he had not spent the time to understand his comrades and what made them special. It was time he remedied that problem. He chose to do this by visiting Yog's. It was just after dinner and people would soon begin to pour into the establishment to unwind after a long week and celebrate the coming of the weekend.
"Weapons Ka' el?"
"Not today Charley, I didn't bring my saber with me," Ka' el replied.
"You alright?"
"Yes I believe I am...Charley I got a question for you?"
"Shoot kid"
"What's a good alcoholic beverage?"
"I like Thyferran Lager, but some people swear by Corellian Ale."
"Thyferran Lager?"
"Yeah ask for a Lylin's Origional, best stuff in the galaxy."
"Thanks Charley."
Ka' el then made his way to the bar, it wasn't crowded yet and the tender seemed suprised to see the young man here at such an unusual time for him.
"Catching a late supper Ka' el? I'll have the cooks fix your usual and get you a glass of water."
"Not tonight, I'm just here to unwind, Charley said to try a Lylin's Origional."
"Did he now, how old are you know Ka' el?"
"Eighteen, why?"
"Well to drink alcohol on Coruscant you have to be eighteen so I just need to see your ID."
Ka' el produced his holo-card and confirmed he was indeed eighteen.
"Alright, you want that in a bottle or draft?"
"Umm what's the difference?"
The tender chuckled and shook his head.
"I'll get you a pint that should work."
" 'k thanks."
The tender nodded and grabbed a clear glass cup and went back to the taps. When he came back the glass was filled with an amber liquid with a bit of foam on the top.
"Here you go kid, two creds"
Ka' el handed him the money and took the glass. He then spotted an empty booth and walked over and sat down. He then took a gulp of the liquid the cold bitter liquid actually tasted good as he swallowed it.
Not too bad...
