Good Graces

[Dax Perl]

Dax nodded and took the vile thing in hand. He could feel the Dark side energies radiating off the damned thing. He was surprised it hadn't driven the man insane yet. Taking a deep breath Dax sat crosslegged on the floor, cradling the prism in his palms. Focusing his energy partially through meditation and sheer force of will he set to work. The pyramid began to glow a crimson red, much like the blades of those it belinged to.

Enduri watched and his thoughts of what could it hold multiplicated, he was just a few moments from knowing what the prism held inside.

The pyramid began to float above Dax's hands, the grey capstone removeing itself from the remainder of the holocron, smoke suddenly pooring out from it, illuminated by the pyramid's mysterious glow. As this happened Dax's face distorted as he put more effort into breaking through the holocron's defenses, the guardian spectre obstructing his access.

Enduri's eyes opened wide open as he saw the Holocron almost open, Come on... he thought to himself. He was both happy and frustated that it was so close but still very away from him, but he could already feel the knowledge entering him and sort of empowering him.

 

[Dax Perl]

Dax finally opened the holocron, the smoke suddenly turning into phantasms, playing it scenes, memories of someone long dead. The crimson glow now came from within the phantasms, all of which beated as if they had their own hearts.

The prince scared by the ghosts takes a step back, then two steps forwards and touches the Holocron, making the phantoms surround him, whispering to him words about ancient Sith techniques. "Force shadow...", one said then another one came "See your enemies....", two very masculine voices. A third and forth one followed, more feminine voices spoke "Force Lighting..." "Shock your enemies...". The phantoms then separated in two groups of two, Enduri presumed to teach him the things they kept secret. Could he have both, or did he have to make a choice?

Dax stood as the shadows began to congregate. The words, although unheard, floated through the air, as calling silently. "Be careful Prince. The phantoms are not brought to life by technology. They're manifestations of the Force. If something happens I may not be able to help."

 

[Enduri Jaii]

The Prince without hearing the man's word, went towards the two feminine phantoms. "Please, teach me.", he said as he kneeled down like he was being lured in by power. The ability to shock others...The Sith seemed to knew some techniques that seemed unnatural. The phantoms responded simultaneously "This is your choice then. You may learn the other powers but at that point, a sacrifice must be made". The spirits then started swirling around the prince almost as making a vortex. Each at a time, would teach and give the power to use Force Lighting at his desire.

While that happened the other two phantoms who knew Force Shadow looked at the man, as they waited for him to pickup the Holocron that Enduri had dropped and to talk with them.

Dax watched as the phantoms swirled around the Prince. He drew closer to the Sith atrifact till it stood at his feet. Slowly, hesitantly he picked it up. The shadows nearest him begand to swirl around him, the glow now coming from dax himself. Whispers and secrets surrounding him.

[Enduri Jaii]

The man saw visions, someone shooting Lighting out of his hands. He didn't see his face, the person adorned a robe and the hood covered his face. So much power was that man emiting. The vision showed him, smithing other civilians, draining their souls with lighting. The vision then came back, like the Prince was pushed out of it and into reality again. He looked around himself, the phantoms had dissapeared, except those around [member="Dax Fyre"] . After checking on himself, he looked towards the visitor.

 

[Dax Perl]

Dax saw through the eyes of another man. And then through the eyes of the man's shadow. He could see al things, secret politcal fdeals, assassinations, he learned all the dark secrets of his enemies. Soon the vision faded and the phantoms withdrew into the holocron. Letting out a deep breath the young man looked at the Prince. "What did you see?"

@Enduri jaii

 

[Enduri Jaii]

"Someone... shocking other people? And you?", the man hadn't even realized, but his hands emmited some electrical powers, not enough to reach to his feet, but made strange sounds. He then questioned himself about the sacrifice, what kind would it be? What did that even mean?

[member="Dax Fyre"]

 

[Dax Perl]

"Sith Lightning. That's what you saw." Dax said, "I saw...I'm not sure. I could go anywhere. Pass through objects. I was a spectre unseen."

@Enduri Jaii

 

[Enduri Jaii]

"Seems interesting. Anyway, your ship should be fixed by tomorrow, so I'll be here if you need me.", he said as he took the Holocron from the man's hands and if he did, he stored it in a shelf.

[member="Dax Fyre"]

 

[Dax Perl]

"Remember, speak of thus to no one." Dax said in earnest as he handed the holocron to the man.

@EnduriJaii

 

[Enduri Jaii]

"It'll be our little secret.", the Prince kind of wanted the man to go now so he could stay and practice his new learned ability, but if he wanted to get a quick tour of the city, he pleasently would.

[Dax Perl]

Dax nodded. "I'll leave you be for now. If you don't mind I'll be outside, meditating." Dax left and closed the door behind him. He made hus way outside towards rhe gardens.

@Enduri Jaii

 

[Enduri Jaii]

As the man left, he closed the door and sat on the door thinking about what he'd learned. As he looked at his hands, he noticed small sparks coming out of his fingers. He knew not how to cease them, but he recalled to how the man in his visions did it.
The Prince started trying to calm himself down, and the sparks, even if they hadn't dissapeared were now almost unoticible.

Dax found a quiet place, near a fountain wear he sat. He sat on soft grass and crossed his legs. Taking a deep breath, he began, not to meditate, but to project his being outward. It felt...natural...slowly, things came into focus, despite closed eyes.

@Enduri Jaii

 

[Enduri Jaii]

Now, he got some papers and put them into the floor isolated from everything else. He felt power come and flow trought his body then into his fingers and hands. With a short burst of Force, Lighting came out of his hands and zapped the papers turning them into ashes on the spot. He was impressed by such power and he wanted to learn more.
