If she were to create an entire new department, Nanoha reasoned that they would need a place to meet, to gather, train and to work ... whatever it was that they would be working on. As the Science Department had their laboratories and the Medical Department their medical bay, the girl had been busy searching the ship and the City for a place that felt... spiritual. Nanoha supposed that she could have chosen anywhere and they would have been able to make do, but perhaps the other volunteers would need someplace more conductive to the study and working of magical and mystical arts.

The ziggurat off to the side of the City caught her eye as she soared past it, for it seemed oddly like something she'd seen in the Sensoriums, back when she'd met Luke Skywalker. As she neared it, Nanoha realized it felt the same, too - there was a little tingle in her spine that wasn't quite any magic she was aware of, but it... felt almost familiar, and warm.

She touched down, the wings fading from her heels as she walked toward the structure, a smile appearing on her face. This place... it felt almost perfect.

"Hello! Is anyone here?" She called out - if it were occupied, of course, she'd look somewhere else.

"Yes," Arha said, "like Luke Skywalker, though he is a grandmaster and I just beginning my studies." She paused herself for a moment, then grinned. "It is very peaceful. I am sure this would be an excellent spot for your Magical Department to meet."

"I can understand that - he seemed very wise when I met him." Nanoha smiled, but it was a bit sheepish. "I think so too. It's a very spiritual place... it feels like there's power here."

"But... I don't want to just take your meditation spot, you know."

"Such a thing does not belong to me," Arha said, "and if it did, I should be pleased to share it. There is little enough in the way of comfort in the situation we are all in. As to Luke, he is wiser perhaps than even he thinks he is."

"Thanks," Luke said as he walked up. He'd taken to spending more time here, in the real world, than in the Sensoriums. Peaceful and idyllic though those mental creations were, a Jedi had to be grounded in reality, and he rather like the feel of this place more. "Though a Jedi isn't supposed to be prideful, so make sure you don't compliment me too much or it'll go right to my head."

She turned at the sound of his voice, and her face brightened. "Oh, Luke! I didn't expect you here! ... though maybe I should have." Her voice took on a more teasing tone. "I'll have to remember that, though."

"I actually got the go-ahead from the command staff to collect a roster of people who could be on the team I'm creating, so I was... looking for a good spot that we could meet, you know? A home base sort of thing."

"I shall limit my compliments, then," Arha teased, "but you are welcome nonetheless as my observations are mostly true. And I think this would be a lovely spot for a meeting place of such a department."

"I do too," Luke said. "The Jedi Temple has been what most people would call a pretty mystical place for thousands of years. It makes sense that it'd be a good place for this group to meet now."

Nanoha's face was a smile from ear to ear as she looked around. "Well... I can't really disagree with any of that." She grinned at Luke. "Especially if you're giving the OK."

She walked over to one of the walls, looking at the stone curiously - it didn't seem to be anything she'd ever seen before - before turning back to Luke. "Was this the temple you trained in?"

Arha folded her hands behind her and was silent as she sat on the top step, her hands folded across her knees loosely. She had nearly been everywhere in the temple, but the center was her favorite part. And the steps where she could look out on the rest of the city, those, too, were a favorite part.

Luke seemed to have this in hand decently and she was content to sit, close enough for company and to listen and provide what she could when she could.

"I didn't train here, actually," he replied. "When I found out I was a Jedi, I was almost the last one left in the entire galaxy, I took training whenever and wherever I could, from whoever I could. I've trained some students at a Temple like this one though."

Nanoha's expression softened. "Oh - I'm sorry to hear that. But... I'm sure they were glad to have you as a teacher!" She continued to just explore the area, looking all over (and admiring the view from down the steps). "My own training course wasn't as serene as this place is."
