"A few months. I came here with the first wave of arrivals - you're the fourth."
The verbalization, the words rolling out of his mouth, come with a strangeness to himself. He never has been grounded for a very long time, at least not intentionally so, and not since he was young. Settling down in one place has never been in his plans, but this island has forced his hand. For now, an opportunity to leave has not presented itself in a meaningful way.
Any next questions he thought to ask escape his mind quickly when he sees how the snow levitates. He knows the Jedi have these powers, but to see them in action will never cease to bewilder him. The child watches the levitation and, with a hesitation that can be felt between them alone, reaches his claws out to take the snow ball. He holds it in his hands, grumbling, then lets the ball roll off and fall to the ground with a hard plop.
