Nexus nodded thoughtfully, as he held out the two gems, Nexus would lift a hand attempting to bring the crystals closer to his face to inspect them as Fireson bowed and explained. As he commanded, he had indeed found crystals. They were perhaps not abnormally strong or altered. But they would suffice. Nexus didn't need Fireson yet to create a weapon of absolute destruction, but he did need him to make one that would do what it was supposed to do. In Nexus's opinion, a lightsaber wasn't as important as many claimed it to be. And many of the old sith utilized swords, not lightsabers. They were simply a more modern weapon which Nexus had adapted to his existing type.
He'd then return the crystals to him, "Very good." He withdrew his masters lightsaber. Nexus's current weapon had undergone a different process, but his masters would be what Nexus would teach Fireson first. It was less complicated, and less difficult. He ignited the blade revealing it's red coloration and hearing the hum. He remembered the many years he spent learning, ah, the path to power.
"There are things you must do, to prove to me that you are a Sith. You will have tasks soon, that you must achieve." Nexus deactivated the weapon, "Come with me." he walked outside and a small pillar emerged from the ground as he forced it to do so, "Sit on it."
He turned around to face his apprentice, "You must learn how to make your crystal bleed. This is a form of meditation, get up there, take your crystals, and focus. Not with your intellect, with your passions. Think of every bit of pain, of rage, every sense of sadness and fear, every desire, every ounce of pride and humiliation you have, focus it. Like a beacon of power, focus on the crystal. I want you to forget about how long this will take you, because it should not be fast if you do it right. Dwell on every moment, on every detail, don't let any emotion you've ever had go forgotten in this meditation. Bring the power of the force to you just for this minute action and give all of those emotions, those memories, pains, and passions, and give them to the crystals. Let them feel what you have felt."
