Image ID: Watercolour and gouache painting. A vibrant sunrise in oranges, pinks, purples and blues fills the sky. Small, distant clouds float high above. In the foreground is a field of growing crops and two figure displayed in silhouette shadows. The figures are Obi-Wan and Cody standing side-by-side, looking away. The viewer can see their silhouettes from the back at about knee up, standing amongst the silhouetted stalks of the crops. Cody's face is turning slightly towards Obi-Wan to hear what he has to say and Obi-Wan's hair is blowing slightly in the wind. The title of the fic "in a dream you saw a way to survive (and you were full of joy) " is written in dark letters that fade into the colour of the sunrise, the title is echoed in faint white, handwritten letters.

The shadows were still long when Cody caught the shuttle out to the Temple, unable to sit and wait a moment longer. The trip itself wasn't too long, just up into the mountains a bit. It was a scenic ride, the shuttle humming along over the neatly terraced mountainside. Already the crops the Jedi Agricorps had put in were beginning to grow, the fast-growing cereals standing tall in their fields with other foodstuffs interplanted with them. Occasionally, a Jedi could be seen walking among the rows, tending and watching the plants.
With a quiet hitch of the engines, the shuttle slid to a stop. Cody climbed out, the only passenger. The Temple rose above him, carved into the mountainside, and he could see the row of Temple Guards in their white and gold armour at the top of the steps. He breathed in deeply, and climbed up. Before Cody reached the halfway point, he heard a familiar clatter of boots on stone, and there was Obi-Wan coming down to meet him, a broad smile on his face. Cody couldn't help his own smile, the last of his nerves vanishing. Obi-Wan wrapped him in a firm hug, and Cody hugged back readily.
Image ID: Conte Pastel drawing. Cody sits at a dark dinner table, he is visible from about mid-torso up. He is leaning forward on his right elbow, in towards the viewer. His left arm is crossed in front of him on the table top. He is wearing a tunic, that has a button and ribbon design that starts mid-chest up to the collar. The design is green and pink, set on a mid-to-dark blue tunic, with seams along the sides that meet under the breastbone in a tailored fit. His expression is open and interested in the person sitting across from him that we cannot see. The background behind him is a yellow-gold, similar to the colour of the 212th Battalion.

Cody nodded, a smile creeping across his face as Obi-Wan went off on a long tangent about the architectural influences of both temples, and how they fit into the history of the Jedi Order. He's always loved listening to his Jedi ramble, and so Cody propped his chin in his hand and picked at his meal as Obi-Wan rattled along, his monologue on architecture detouring into a discussion of coloured glazing and the importance and significance of light in Jedi theology.
