Lighting streaks across the sky and the wind begins to howl. Storm clouds form above the battling force user. Droplets of water cascade against the blue and crimson plasma blade. Recca and the Sith lock blades as they stare one other down. The Sith pushes Recca back into a wall and slashes at Recca's head. He quickly deflect the strike into the wall next to him. He thrust kicks the Sith in the gut; then roundhouse him across the side of the head. The Sith stumbles back from the kick. He becomes enrage and force throw Recca across the alley through a window. Recca kips up off the ground. His vision slow turns a shade of dark red. Recca wraps the blood out of his eyes, but the blood continues flow. He tears his shirt and wraps it over the gash.

" COME OUT AND FIGHT ME YOU COWARDLY JEDI! "

The Sith walks towards the broken window as rain pour down. He swing his crimson lightsaber striking object as pas them. Recca switches to form II and drives out the window. He roll on the ground and in a crouch position. He force throws a large barrel towards the Sith. The Sith splits the barrel in two with his lightsaber. Recca's form II is a combination II and V forms. From a distances the looks like a beautiful dancing lights in the dark. He parries the Sith's strike and spin back with his lightsaber straight behind him. He is having a hard time see because the blood running into them. He closes his eyes and uses force sight. The Sith dashes at Recca and comes with a over head strike. Recca blocks the strike from the Sith. The Sith uses his free hand to launch force lighting at Recca.

Sorel was no great philosopher but she knew what she knew and certain things sparked her interest. Krass had just triggered one.

“I’ve often wondered what it would be like, to be a Jedi that visits a planet or a system that is isolated and never return. The bit that interests me in that scenario is to consider my behaviour and that of other Jedi. Would we remain true to the Order and unswerving. Or would we adapt over time?”

She looked at Krass in the eyes now. “And which would be right. To adhere to a Code, unchanged, for millennia or to evolve and adapt to change. It’s not like they went to specifically do their own thing, is it?”

Krass looked at her master while shew was going and had a small grin on her face with it. "Oh they if anything preserved the ways of the order, only really adopting as the jedi order is the only thing on the planets. No real governments, no real outside influences just the jedi order working together, developing, training and discovering everything that can come to them. THey hav developed specialized methods of work with the force in the different classes of the jedi and are loyal to each other and the order a lot more then others. In the case of non force users they have been given their own world and everything needed to be with their families but they developed more of a society that aids the order."

Tyluko could sense some unease coming from the newly arrived duo as they introduced themselves. He didn't know what to make of it all and wondered if they were hiding something or did not trust him and his fellow Jedi. However his thoughts would be interrupted by the arrival of yet another newcomer. Whoever he was he seemed to recognize [member="Akio Diachi"] and appeared to be on the same mission. The newcomer stated that he was looking for something but was unsure of what he was looking for. Tyluko looked to him ([member="Ostdern Mastogar"] ) and spoke "We are here searching for a shrine dedicated to Jedi who had fought here during the Clone Wars, would you like to join us? Oh and I am Tyluko who might you be? You seem familiar with [member="Akio Diachi"] " Tyluko spoke, giving the newcomer a friendly smile.

 

[Coci Heavenshield]

Eastern Continent - The Ferryman
Subterranean Room

(5)

------------------------------------


The boat rested on the floor of the cavern. The only light source was that of Coci's saber and the ferryman had vanished. Looking up, the ceiling enclosed taking with it her only way out at this point. Her senses on high alert found the presences of several beings yet they did not appear to be solid form and it was difficult to grasp their origin as they seemed to shift within the air. There was a sense of sorrow, heavy and almost suffocating some of which wallowed in self pity while others pointed the finger of blame. Coci had never been here on this planet before, had no history of any form and yet it was familiar or rather the souls within the walls were. Distant, faint but a connection none the less. Coci's mind raced trying to ascertain an understanding of who they might be, how they knew of her and why this sorrow was her's.

Was this to be some sort of trial, or reckoning?

Out of the darkness step hundreds of figures of all races, all baring the her face. Women, men and children, all staring at her with a countenance of sorrow and as Coci turned in circle they had surrounded her. Then one by one their true faces revealed some of which she knew had joined the force, others she did not know. "It is because of you we are here". A child spoke without moving lips or natural voice. Coci did not know the child and yet the connection was tired to her like a thread issuing from the being to her through the force. A soft white light became visible from each one of them, thin like string and entwined around her.

Coci felt a press on her mind, something or someone was tapping her, using images to conjure the apparitions of people of her past. "All for the greater good", the child continued. "We are dead". Was this real? Real enough but it had to come from somewhere, there is something stronger using a guiding hand to create the scene.

Perhaps it was a personality flaw for Sorel to consider – but for as much as the experience was positive, the Jedi spotted something that she was not entirely pleased about. Given her more recently developed ability to hold her tongue and opinion when things were not as she hoped – she was unsure if she should share what she thought. But finally she decided that to withhold was as bad as to be too bold with any assertions.

So she spoke plainly and honestly but with a degree of guardedness. “The Order and their affairs sound secure and it’s good they are progressing. My only area for reservation – and it is probably a lack of understanding more than anything – is the concept of a society that aids the Order. It sounds a little like they serve the Order, when in my head it would be the other way around. But as I say, that may just be my poor understanding.”

Krass was listening to her master and she thought about it for a time and she might not have been explaining it well but it was kind of different. "They are part of the order, the order is in the entire system. They are just not able to feel the force but these aren't people who were brought in and told what to do. They were born to the jedi, they have families but without the force you can't do much in a temple so go to a normal school and place where you can learn other practical things. It wouldn't do well for a child with no hands to be in a class where the whole purpose is to snap." She hope that made sense to explain it and they were all getting a chance to work on more of it. Krass looked around when the scent in the air changed and it smelled more like they were in a stable with animals before parts of the vault were opened and the small woman could see down on a lower level one of the things moving. The gleam of white horn and the swishing of the tail.

The Jedi saw the Sith block the attack. He then pivoted to the right side,Velus then decided to strike his at the right side of the kidneys. The Sith was able to move towards him, and with it, they continued to fight.

As he did this, the Sith tapped more into the dark-side of the force. It was here that Velus felt a calling, a calling to the dark-side. It wasn't in the best of moments, as he was trying to resist it while fighting. The Ephicanthix moved back into a defensive Shii-Choo stance.

The urge to embrace the dark-side was strong. He was however did not know that the dark-side was calling him; he only knew this: that there was a power that had always been attracted to Velus for some odd reason.

Resist he mentally told himself, as he nearly was striked by the Sith. Velus was in real trouble, and he would have to get out it in a quickly, or he may suffer fatal injuries,

The Avogwi took the newcomers in eyeing them with fierce yellow eyes. Finding them not terribly threatening she turned to look at the surroundings. The water lapped gently on the lake's shore and the Avogwi had to admit that the scenery was fairly relaxing. While there was fellow Jedi here it wouldn't do to completely relax. The two new comers had already come to close without her detecting them and that was concerning.

Yawning and stretching her wings, Vitha looked at the blue and red eyed man and Tyluko. "I'm going to scout the area and see about catching some food. Do you two want me to look out for anything or bring back some prey?"

Unsure of what they could contribute to the group's quest that was still a mystery to the pair, Lux softly tapped Aster on the shoulder. "Let's go. It seems like we're intruding on something," she whispered into the teenager's ear.

Anxiety still bubbling inside her, Aster delicately nodded and the pair slipped away in silence.

"I saw you were uncomfortable around the Chiss," Lux finally said breaking the silence, her tone tinged with concern. "When the time comes for us to return to Csilla, you cannot behave like that around the Chiss," she frowned.

"I understand," the teenager replied weakly and stopped at the bank of a lake. Something about the calm body of water put her at ease. "I'm tired, let's rest a little," she said and sat down, her legs stretched before her. The gentle caress of the wind blowing strands of hair onto her face relaxed her. It felt lovely.

Paying little attention to Lux who had taken a seat beside her, Aster fell back into the grass and looked up at the blue sky. For the first time in a while, she was at peace.

As she moved on she continued to eliminate enemy droids and mercs. But as more came into the chamber she began to have to block more than fight. She noted the grenades and detonators they had focusing some she managed to pull many of them off and in a swirling mass activated each. As she did she flung them in all directions. The blasts demolished the room and sent bodies all over. As the sith that remained came for her she felt herself seem almost barely awake? She sensed every movement however, every thought as they all moved in she swung swiping ones body then ducked the next ones attack before leaping up and and taking his arm and then stabbing into his chest. As the soldiers they had and jedi moved deeper they began to hear the shouts of sith falling as acolytes desperately came to take her on. She could read every move as she moved in slashing another and grappling the next before snapping his neck. But all the while she was calm, not frantic or frenzied just peaceful. Everything seemed to move slowly as she struck one saber aside then ducked another. Now the battle it seemed became wider, she could feel the other sith, jedi even the mercs and the droids battling in a giant flow. This was going to be interesting.

The serene scenery before Aster had lulled her into a short slumber without her realising it until her eyes fluttered open. Revitalized from her nap, the blonde removed her heels, setting them to the side and walked towards the edge of the lake.

Carefully, the young Baelor knelt down and scooped up some water with her cupped hands and brought it to her face. The cold water that caressed the contours of her face refreshed her.

“Aster,” Lux called as she watched her charge with eagle eyes. “Shall we continue exploring or do you wish to stay for a little while?” she asked.

“Let’s stay,” Aster replied without turning back to look at her companion. It was rare for her to be able to relax like this.

Revy was looking at Honoko and the others who were all around with them. Sticking up, sticking around here in the mines it would be dangerous as they were waiting for more people to arrive and come to help them. She was out there looking at the people when some of the medical teams that were prepared and arriving. The jedi padawan wanted to work on many more things when she looked up. THey might manage to have a couple other people join them or some of the healers so you never really knew. With a look on herf ace though the woman wasn't certain putting the stunner in her holster where the two rods worked and were looking proper. With the duraplast rods and crystal rings they would be able to keep testing them on any of the proble cases that were trying to attack them or keep the status quo a danger against everyone here. They wanted the mines to be dangerous and harmful to the other people.

Sorel nodded as Krass explained. There was an old Jedi saying that, ‘Many of the truths that we cling to depend on our point of view.’ Sorel had been guilty of allowing her prejudices cloud her understanding of the situation and she was both relieved at Krass’ further clarification and a little cross with her own foolishness at jumping into a perception without fully understanding the situation.

“It sounds like a wonderful symbiotic system,” Sorel said finally, “Now I have taken the time to understand it better.”

Sorel noted the change in the smell and her focus shifted to their immediate surroundings. She narrowed her eyes, by way of ensuring her attention remained on the task in hand and looked around, her vision caught by the movement below.

“What do we have here,” she asked her Padawan quietly.

Enthralled by the pristine waters, Aster slowly slipped her feet into the crisp, cold water. The cool water felt nice against her skin. It had been too long since she had last been able to feel so close to nature and enjoy its humble offerings. Carefully, she pulled up her skirt a little and submerged her legs deeper into the water, causing a ripple effect on its surface as she did so.

"This is nice," she muttered half to herself. "I almost don't want to return to Csilla now," she joked. Even if the thought of returning caused her much anxiety, she had no choice, Csilla was where her home and family were and the Chiss were her people. It was her duty to do what little she was able to for them.

"When the time comes and I must return, I think I might ask my uncle permission to have an indoor garden built somewhere on my residence on Csilla. It would be nice to have some plants around," Aster said as she watched the ripples on the water's surface.

"I wonder if I might still be able to live in my little house or if I will have to move into the House Palace," she mused, absorbed in her thoughts. There was something about nature that relaxed her.

Krass was silent and letting her eyes follow the creature as it was going through the caves now. It was one of the hu, those massive minotaur like beings that she would need to likely avoid... hopefully. There was some danger there when you fought them. They were large beasts who didn't like people. "That is one fo the creatures, we have or should be careful. Sometimes they care and sometimes they don't if people are around. One of the temples on Voss had a pair and they didn't care about the jedi being there as long as they stayed out of the area's they had made their home." She wasn't certain about it though while walking to have her saber in one hand and a glow rod in the other hand just in case they needed it to make a pathway to see.

Ostdern faced the odd amphibian Jedi. "I'm Ostdern, I completed basic training under Master Diachi. Though other than that, I've got adept skill with a saber pike. Here it is." The pike was flung out as Ostdern assumed his battle stance. It was odd given that he used reverse Shien with a saber pike. A long orange blade protruded from the hilt. "As for the crystal, it's a pretty cool one. Found on the black market prior to my training. Fastened to the emulator and voila, saber pike." Pulses hit him again once more. "I still feel that pulse hitting me hard. And yes, I except your offer to join your little 'crew' here. Happy to be working with all of you." His orange blade retreated back into the hilt as he rested the pike on his shoulder. It was going to be a long trip, but he was ready. "Do any of you have any preferences? By that I mean, is there anything I could do to offend you? I want to keep a clean work environment."

The cool water tempted Aster, inviting her to wade into its depths to which the teenager willingly complied. Carefully the blonde stood up in the knee high water on the bank of the lake, the skirt of her dress hitched up to prevent it getting wet.

"Aster," Lux called out to the girl with a tone of concern. "We should get going now," she frowned, her voice forceful.

"But..." Aster started without hiding her disappointment.

"No," Lux cut her off. "The sun looks like it may set soon, we should go."

"Fine," the blonde muttered in response and made her way out of the water and back on land. Though Aster had wanted to stay a little longer, she had been under strict orders to obey the members of the Wolfsglaive that had been sent to Silver Jedi with her. Such was a condition of her trip to study among the Jedi.

Sorel nodded. Many creatures were fearsome but would not attack just for the sake of it. Unless you were food or a threat, they would leave you alone. And avoiding them was typically the right way to go about avoiding being set upon by them.

Sorel kept her voice low. “I never saw the ones on Voss, and I agree with you. Let’s not bother them and I hope that means they won’t bother us.”

She followed Krass, her senses attuned to the surroundings and keeping her Padawan safe paramount in her thoughts. They moved as quickly and as quietly as they could and soon left the minotaur behind.
