[The message arrives in Obi-wan's inbox in the early morning hours. Despite being here for some time, Din is still an early riser, and old habits die hard. Also the fact that it's kind of hard to stay asleep, when you suddenly got something big and hard under your mattress. Still, it's something he doesn't feel should be broadcast to the city at large.]
Obi-wan
Are you currently in Temba? [Might be an odd question, but with 2 cities now, you never know.]
[That's probably worse. At least Din had a mattress between him and object.]
No, Grogu is fine.
I got another 'gift' from the Agrii. But...I think they mistakenly gave it to me. As I think it's a lightsaber. Not a toy one. [Or at least it sort of looked like one.] You Jedi are the ones that use them. [So surely they're the ones it should belong with, right?? Mandalorians don't use them.]
[Obi-Wan is there waiting for him. Once he catches sight of Mando arriving, he motions for him to follow. Leading the Mandalorian into the Spire and sitting in one of the many cushions surrounding the healing crystals of fire upon the large pedestal. Motioning for him to do the same.]
[He nods to Obi-wan, following the Jedi through the Temple. Pausing for a moment, as he takes in the spire room. He remembers the healing crystals, from when Obi got them. There's a moment before he sits down on one of the cushions nearest Obi-wan.]
It's not round like yours. [Or at least from what he's seen they're all cylindrical.] But it's similar enough. [He hopes he's not wasting Obi's time with this. Still he'll reach under his cloak, and pull out a black handle, that Obi-wan knows all too well.] Woke up to this thing under my mattress.
[That does indeed look familiar and despite his composure, Obi-Wan draws in a breath. But was it actually the saber he thought it was? There was only one way to be certain.]
May I?
[The Jedi holds out his hand, clearly asking Din to let him hold the weapon.]
[Taking the hilt carefully, Obi-Wan paused and held it in his hands. Simply staring at it for several moments. Eventually though he takes it in one hand to hold it properly, and ignited the weapon.
What appeared was the signature, strange blade. Black with cracks of white light throughout. Giving off an eerie glow that seemed so unnatural compared to all the other lightsabers he had ever seen.
It was then that memories flashed through his mind. His eyes staring vacantly at the blade as he relived the moments he had last seen this weapon. Fingers tightening around the hilt until he finally deactivated it. A hand moving down his face with a sigh.]
[Din's quiet as he watches Obi-wan with the hilt. The igniting of the blade makes him lean back a little. It's certainly not like any of the lightsabers he's seen, specially in color. The sound of it is also so different. Yet there's a strange beauty to it, as well.
But he's also watching Obi-wan's reaction to it. The intake of breath wasn't lost on him.]
[Obi-Wan says this with another sigh as he holds the hilt in his hands again. Quietly pondering it and why the Agrii would give it to this Mandalorian who seemed to know nothing about it.]
It was used to kill someone I cared for deeply, as an act of revenge.
[Din's wondering that too. He'd never seen it, until it showed up here. ...and well, that answer isn't really helping his questioning any. What the hell, Agrii.]
...why the kriff did the Agrii give it to me. [He might also be feeling a tad guilty bringing it to Obi-wan.]

Mando? Yes, I’m here. Is something wrong? It’s not Grogu is it.
[Because why else would he send a message first thing in the morning?]
no subject
No, Grogu is fine.

What?
Bring it to the Temple. I’ll take a look at it.
no subject
Sure. Be there soon. [And true o his word, it doesn't take him long to get to the Temple grounds and look for Obi-wan..]
Action
Let’s see what you have.

I know this lightsaber.

[Really he doesn’t. Though he could take a few wild guesses.]
It likely has to do with you being a Mandalorian. Though you’re not from clan Vizsla or Kryze.
