The woman had left the scene, escaped into the perpetual night here in Valen. Iella was saddened she could not have done more but there is always time in the future to meet her again. She sensed through the force his presence along their force bond. Syn was coming for her and she was very happy for that. Iella started to walk in his direction, it would be a long walk to the city, but she had no transport and she could take time to reflex on things that now concerned her about the Jedi Order and it's direction. For her now, as time when on with the new Grand Master, that things had not changed .. the atmosphere within the Order still one of absolute, war and invasion. They are hell bent on eradication on the darkside through means so unjedi like it made her sick to the stomach. So she has a lot of thinking to do. For Iella, the Jedi of this Order are not Jedi, but puppets of the Republic and she thinks on them as Jedi Soldiers. Yet again they are marched into war, leading the way, it is the Republic Military that should be leading this, not the Jedi.
Iella considers the Council clouded in it's judgement, lust for Sith blood pumping in their veins with no thought to try ... at least try .. for redemption, firstly before entering into the kill. There is no thought to the long term implications of their actions. War, by is nature, will change the best of people. And it had changed her. She feels now that she had lost her way, and it might be time to find it again. Her hand now resting on her belly with their children. She is thinking of them now, and what it in the future for them, she can not have them raised in a culture of hate, which is what the Jedi are doing, they are now no better then the Sith they wish to kill. Iella walks on toward her new direction.
She hears his voice in her mind and for a moment she can not answer him. He has asked a question that she can not answer for the moment. Instead she replies to him, in a vague way.
I am fine. She knows he will detect her change, that is something that she can not or will not hide from him.
