Fallen Knight
Training Grounds
Silver Rest
Kashyyyk
Cas had been training non-stop since his last two encounters with Insatious. Since the Jedi Knight decided he would kill the Dark Lord. He was too dangerous to be left alive, too dangerous to those he cared about. The Dark Lord's skills within the Force overshadowed Cas' greatly, surviving all of his encounters was pure luck or worse, because Insatious had deemed it so. He needed to get better, stronger, much stronger so that their next encounter can be their last. The Kiffar was aware of the risks, that he may not make it back or worse... he'd fall completely over to the Dark side - but he was willing to take those chances. If it meant keeping those he loved safe: his parents, Ciara, Sakadi, Yen, Mathieu... everyone.Silver Rest
Kashyyyk
The fifth hour of Cas' time in the training yard passed, sweat dripped from his face and drenched his clothes. But he refused to stop. Several training droids, programmed on their highest setting converged on Cas - attacking him with precision and aggression. The sound of lightsabers humming and clashing echoed across the yard, as well as the occasional grunt or breath Cas took. Ducking and evading two attacks converging where his head was, the Jedi Knight quickly hopped back before handspringing backward on one hand while blocking an attack with his lightsaber hand. When his boots touched the ground, Cas positioned himself in a crouched position and performed a 360 spin, severing two of the training droid's legs that tried to rush him.
More came, he blocked their attacks before returning strikes of his own. In quick succession, Cas bent low and struck at a droid's torso and proceeded to leap into the air transitioning into a forward flip and decapitating the droid mid-air before landing. The final droid charged at Cas but he simply held it in place with the Force before extending his arm and making a fist, advancing to crush it internally with the Force. When he was done, he dropped its remains to the floor as sparks periodically flew from its exposed plating.
Exhaling, Cas figured that was enough training for today. Proceeding to make his way to his dorm, the Kiffar felt a coldness rush over him but it wasn't a familiar one. The hair's on his arm rose and he felt a sense of dread knot up in his stomach... there was a disturbance in the Force.
