Corden's Storyline - A New Hope

Operative Nyx Reporting


My cyar'ika (Mandalorian word for "sweetheart") and welcomed the newest addition to Clan Maximus, our little girl Tifa (@Tifa_Maximus).  She is completely beautiful, and the resemblance to us both is uncanny.  She is the first born for both my husband, Corden (@Corden_Maximus), and myself.  I have to say, a newborn is a lot of work, more so than I had expected.  She doesn't sleep throughout the night so I am constantly waking up to tend to her.  I am completely exhausted for the most part.  Corden has offered to help watch her, but sometimes I don't think even that is enough.  Regardless, she is my child and I love her dearly.  Already I can tell she is a curious little thing, always looking around and watching everything around her.  I programmed a droid to help in her daily care, but it still isn't enough.  The little princess requires quite a bit of my time and even more so of my energy.

Corden, on the other hand, has been busy tending to the needs of the ship.  I hardly see him in between his work and my tending to the baby.  I hope this doesn't put a strain on our marriage. Maybe this is something I should talk to him about, maybe even making a date night.  We haven't had one of those in months and I am starting to miss him dearly.

And so much rides on the little shoulders of Tifa.  Her father expects her to be raised in the traditional Mandalorian ways where she will be tough, and yet I want her to be a little flower of a girl, just like I was.  I want to give her the upbringing I had, full of priviledge and a life of only the best.  I expect her father and I to clash on these differing parenting styles, of course.  Regardless, he has hopes for her to be of high regard in the Maximus clan, even possibly taking over responsibilities of Mand'alor someday.  I have hopes that she will someday fulfill my mission that I was unable to do, see the galaxy at peace and the Sith vanquished.

She is... our new hope.
