Andonian Mountain range

Loch-Moy

Nestled below the majestic Andonian mountain range is the small village of Moy. My ancestral home is located just north of the village and sits in the highlands between the snowy forests and the fields of heather in the valleys nearby. Loch-Moy as pictured above, is approximately three kilometres south of Whildary, my estate.

Whildary

My home at WHILDARY

Whildary, the Bendu estate has been in my family for generations. Ando Prime is the home of the Bendu monks, followers of my ancestors, the Jedi Bendu. It was the Jedi Bendu who first discovered the Force.
The monks honor my family with their great wisdom and vast knowledge of our universe.

The language of Ando Prime is more or less the Basic language with a twist. A wee bit o' brogue thrown in here and there just to keep your attention. To hear an Andonian speak in the dialect of the village of Moy you would say it might be another language all together so I've written out a few translations to help you along.
I'm fairly well understood for the most part myself, but when I've had a wee nip o' the brandy I'm afraid I do tend to get a bit hard to understand.

For example, I might say something like: The auld wumman fell doon the stairs. Whit aboot it?
