Private Paper and Fire

Ahch-To was always a beautiful place and the temple itself had been largely restored thanks to works with the caretakers. They had been working on a lot more as well as they had amanaged to find the repository... a location the caretakers didn't show visitors easily and stored everything that they found from visitors so it looked like no one showed up here... a passing thought that when and if they left their presence would be wiped away might come to pass was on her mind but... that would take a lot of work and all of them were well dedicated here. Ahch-To was for the most part thriving.. the temple dedicated to the jedi artisans and engineers. Those who worked with their hands and with the force... those who didn't just fight but sought alternative solutions through understanding of the world around them. They even had the startings of the diplomatic jedi that were around them.

Though here in the repository she was trying to go through the massive collection... pristine hoarders would still spend several lifetimes as the first inklings came to her that she had been in here for four days... with food and sleep. There was just so much and she had barely managed to get back a thousand years by now as the different pieces needed to be looked at an investigated. The black and deeper vaults where other things... darker secrets were brought and kept that were from darksiders... things the jedi protected and had been lost in a sea of resin meant to nullify its presence being felt. She had a small cot set up that she could lay on and sleep while making it through the pile and move it when she needed it. The food being given to her and brought in while one of the porgs had managed to get in from the outside and looked at her.

"Well what are you doing here?" She said it as one of the messengers came to join them and near was one of the shadex... a more lupine designed one they had developed as a sort of force golem.... it was meant to test and adapt their skills with the force to show artistry and engineering... as well as imagination. "Master Matsu, the new shuttle just passed he alert network. They are arriving and Nico said you would want to be informed of their arrival." She bowed looking at the girl with a smile on her face. Yes she liked to greet what new padawans they got out here personally to see how they held up. The petite jedi master didn't look very imposing... five foot and while she had muscles and looked tiny compared to many of the others. They she was nearing seventy well that only went so far since the force could keep one alive for a long time.

She was leaving the repository though and the reports were being sent to her wrist chevron datapad... the hardlight illuminating the shadow of the long hallway as she came outside and stood there looking down the large staircase that had been remade... and reworked. The loose stones could be good but not for a lot of use so new hijarna stone steps that were polished and glow lamps that would illuminate in the dark. Containment shielding for the weather as it could create a tunnel from the rain waters. The thala sirens were down by the ocean and one of the landing pads.. they had set up an orbital station to handle overflows of personal ships but the shuttle service was fast and prepared. Something easy enough as the jedi master walked down the steps to approach the shuttle coming in to land.

Her skin was pale but then it always looked such, just barely above snow like in color with ebony black hair and eyes that usually stood unblinking. A small tight lipped smirk of amusement and good nature that presented her more friendly towards the ones who bowed in respect to the jed master who had brought them here and given all of them a place. The sounds of water splashing from binky... her daughter pet who was kept in one of the coves of the island with its own little docking area that had been largely restricted for safety. The padawans and others could go there but they needed to be careful of the massive creature that protected the island and the temples on it. The sound of crystal bells chimed as she walked, dozens strewn through her hair that even folded and tied into three large braids and wrapped went to her ankles.. one of the benefits of being short.

Her robes were a modified jedi kimono, the synthmesh silks smooth and form fitted to her body but while looking simple were highly protective as the force enhanced wintrium got stronger and more resistant to damage with age. The white colors of the robes inner contrasting to the outer robe that was a sky blue coloring with aurabesh script from the jedi temple. her wrist forearm chevron wich connected to the jedi library AI and database obscured as was the kirano interface for her eyes disguised as earrings. The sound of geta sandals made from arkannes wood a gift from Jorus that was enhanced and able to augment the force itself... then there was her saber. The single design of the ilts as the v shaped blades were perfected for reverse grip stanced and could interlock into a cross guard saber and throwing disc like the zeizon shal used.

She stood there with her hands clasped and carefully, skillfully her tattoos from years of undercover and her scars from battles were masterfully covered by the robes so she looked a prestine master compared to many. Even her age barely showed as she looked while slightly older no more then when she had become a master nearly fifty years earlier. "Welcome padawans to Ahch-To one of the first sites that the jedi built their temple." She said it with a smile on her face and radiated warmth while also presenting herself at the bottom of the steps leading up so she was on equal footing regardless of whether it would let some of the others tower over her like most did. She just happened to radiate a confidence and aura of calm and serenity that was always there.. she knew much more then majority of her peers and there were deeper mysteries here.

Slightly nervous, Mariana sat on a seat in the shuttle, that transported all the Padawans to the temple of Ahch-To. It was a huge step for her, the decision to become a Jedi. And from the crowded shuttle, she wasn't the only one, who decided to become a Jedi. A "Peacekeeper", the term, many people would use for Jedi. People from everywhere, from every culture, even the deepest and most lost planets, gathered here, all with the same goal. Although she was happy to be here, the crowd made her a little nervous, she didn't really like crowded places, too much noise, and conversations for one to focus. To forget about the people in the shuttle, Marian looked out the window of the shuttle and took a few deep breaths. When she saw the Temple and nature for the first time, outside the shuttle, her eyes opened wider than usual. A beautiful place, something, she has never seen before. So far she has only seen the nature of Dantooine, but this was different, not only did everything impress but also the Temple, was a beauty itself. She felt, that this place was special. She couldn't' wait to get out the shuffle.

"It is beautiful isn't it?" an old and deep voice ripped her of her thoughts. It was the pilot of the shuttle, who couldn't help but notice Mariana's impressed face. She turned her head towards the man, who wore a helmet, that only covered his head, but not his face. From his looks, he was about 40 years old. Some dark brown facial hair with a few grey hairs mixed was to see on his face, as well as some dark brown, almost black eyes. He smiled at her for a short moment and returned to his usual position, as he was about to land.

"Yea, it is breath taking" she replied with her soft female voice. Suddenly she wasn't nervous anymore, but excited. Her hands, that touched the glass, left a Print on it, for a few moments, as he removed her hand, to turn to the door, that separated now the world from her. Now it was time to make the first step, no going back now. As the door opened, the first thing, everybody would notice and hear was Matsu, the Jedi Master, that greeted all the people from the shuttle. Her smile and calm presence would attract all attention from people to her, and therefore also Mariana's attention. While most people rushed down the ramp, Mariana took her time, to inhale the air and to look around the beautiful scenery here. She couldn't help herself to smile brightly and walk down the ramp of the shuttle slowly while listening to Matsu. //This was the right decision// She thought to herself, as she made her first step onto nature, finally away from the metallic ground from the shuttle, standing right next to the Jedi Master. To show her respect, Mariana bowed before the Master, while her dark brown eyes, were looking at Matsu. Her long curly and dark brown hair, fell to her face, as she bowed, but swiftly, she removed the hair from her face with her hand.

The shuttle opening and letting all of them out. Each one was different but they were also sharing similar qualities... one likely curiosity as well as interest as the greens of the grass mixed with the stonework. She motioned them towards the stairs. "It is good to see you all made it here in good health. I know some of the turbulence from the stormclouds can be a little jarring in a shuttlecraft." A smile remaining on her face as she walked among each of them and nodded her head. Some were older, some were children but all wanted to learn and there was a chance. "If you came here then you have made the first step in what will be a journey of a lifetime or several in some cases...the force has at times a mind of its own and a will but we can get into that more later for now a tour."

She said it and was walking leading the way as she held a hand out for them to follow her. "These are the main docks that are used to come and go from the planet. There is the Yamatai station in orbit that handles other visitors and requisitions." She walked and led them towards the stairs but pointed towards the one pathway. "That leads to a restricted dock, you can go there but it is ill advised. My daughters pet and the islands protector Binky are there. he doesn't like visitors and really only listens to her so be warned and careful when you get to the gates." She bowed her head and was heading up the temple steps. She was leading the way around the island as it went to some fo the platforms and there was a cave. "This leads to the crystal caves under the island... well part of it there is a honeycomb of tunnels down there and it is easy to get lost."

She said it but pointed to a small holo display. "We have set up terminals down there though to try and help lead you out." The jedi master continued after a moment giving them a chance to each look and take things in as well as the surrounding sea, the cliffs and going into an area of the temple they were cooking food for the temple. "This is the general food court of the temple, they have just about anythign you could want and it is always open. The classrooms and study areas are along the various pathways leading along the side of the island here." She indicated it while pointing up the stairs. "Those lead to the main body of the temple and where workshops are located for equipment, from belts and supplies to clothing but there is also anything the artisans can make for you. Sometimes saber hilts for special padawans."

She said it and there was no real answer, sometimes the artisans could see a padawan preforming an action and be inspired to craft them a hilt of some rare material or equipment to help them. She was also showing them up the stairs and there were workshops for learning abilities, for physical training and mental exercises but there was also crystal shaping for artisans and even more things that they were working on here. She led them up and up the mountain towars the top of the temple and the main chamber high above that looked voer everything and had the sigil of the prime jedi. One of the first and his more unique design made sense from the stand point of the precept temple. She was checking over at some fo the things now here... she stood there in the entrance for them. "This is where my office is mainly, the prime jedi's chambers and offices." She stayed there clasping her hands behind her back. "Are there any questions?"

Like all the other People, Mariana followed the Jedi Master in her Tour to show everyone the Temple. It was hard to see her, due to her size, many others in the group were simply much taller and blocked the view, since everyone walked in a group, nobody paid attention to that, so the small people like Marian herself, who walked pretty much at the back of the group, had to follow the calming voice of Matsu.

The first thing Matsu showed were the docks, one public, and one restricted one, of course with an explanation of why it was restricted. Of course, to hear about a big Animal protecting this docks, shocked many of the group, Mariana as well, even though she loved animals, she also respected them, so the docks were a no go for her. She didn't want to upset the animal in any way or cause any trouble whatsoever. The next place was the crystal caves. Although the name already said the purpose of this place, Mariana still wanted to know, if that's the place, Jedi would gather their crystal, for a lightsaber, but she kept the question for herself, for now.

The tour continued, now to the temple itself and it's rooms. As the group walked through the rooms, while Matsu explained, Mariana quietly looked around. The halls were huge. She had never thought that the temple would be so huge. As the group entered the door to the entrance of the office of Matsu and she akes if somebody got questions, Mariana raised his hand, first hesitant, but then she raised her arm to be noticed.

She spoke whenever Matsu paid attention to her and allowed her to ask "Do the Jedi gather their crystals for their lightsaber int the crystal caves ?" For some maybe a stupid question, but Mariana just wanted to be sure. After all, she barely knew something about Jedi, other than the obvious facts.

The jedi mastered listened to different questions.. some were different then she had expected. One getting her attention. "Yes." her voice came out softly but it could be heard as she used the force to make it carry around. "Master I thought the jedi were not allowed to have children." She looked at the young girl and moved tapping her chin. "Now where would you have heard that?" A smirk on her face as she walked around and rose upp using the force to adjust her height so she could be seen by all and look at the other students. "Now in times past the jedi discouraged emotions and family... it was a refinement of their doctrine. During the early years of the order there were some growing pains."

SHe looked out among them. "THe early jedi had families and banded together, the loved and they lived but that brought dangers.. so many force users having children with each other created dynasties, created vergences in the force with some who were powerful and if they turned to the darkside they could wreck havoc on the galaxy. So over time it was changed and discouraged until eventually all emotions were seen as not important. Then most people in the galaxy came to see the jedi as monastic... as something that was detached from the galaxy." She clasped herhands behind her back for a moment when she finished. "But times have changed and there are vastly more types of jedi roaming around the galaxy now."

She finished it and held out a hand looking at Mariana with a nod of her head as the girl spoke about the cave. "Yes, the crystal caves is where you will more the likely go... some other materials can be used for crystals and there is always a chance you will earn the favor of an artisan who knows how to create crystals." She looked over at them and clapped her hands together. There were not a lot of questions but... \"Now you are likely in need of time after your trip. There is food, bunks for all of you and plenty you can explore around if you wish to." She said it with a smile on her face though and was walking. "Enjoy yourself here and be safe. The morning will see your classes start so you can learn the basics."

She listened to the questions, some had and carefully listened to the answers, given by Master Matsu. The question about children was indeed good, but there was more to it. It more or less seemed like Jedi gave up their feelings to become like the perfect "Peacekeeper" but at the cost of feelings? Wasn't that, what made us "human", wasn't fighting for love or anything similar considered good? So far, it only seemed to cause trouble. But would it be worth it losing all kinds of feelings, like a droid, to become a Jedi? But luckily it seemed, that those times have passed. But what made the Jedi change? A question, she would keep to herself to aks in the right moment, maybe when she was alone with a Jedi Master, because she still felt uncomfortable around the group, surrounding her.

The tour ended and Mariana left the group. She went straight outside the Temple, unlike the others. Some went to eat, others went to check the Workshops. But Mariana wasn't interested in that....yet. She cared more about nature, that's where she was headed, to feel the nature around her. She would probably sit there, thinking, eventually go grab something to eat quickly and then go to her assigned Chamber to rest until next morning, to join the class and study the basics. She couldn't wait to see what someone was capable of using the force. So far she knew about Jedis being able to make Objects float, as well as meditate and receive visions, about the future, present, and even past. It all sounded so exciting.

The tour was finished and the group able to disperse.. the jedi master bowed to them and saw them out of the area of the temple before she was going back to her office to over look things. They had the information from her days in the repository and she was able to look over the information from the other teams who were archiving and trying to make a record of everything. Further research from her drones in the Temple of the Precept was being shown and she used hardlight projectors to bring the temple into view of the room as she explored parts of it that they had been scanning. She could see the murals and there was a sound from the fabricator as she was checking it out.

They had recreated the armor or what they could... no real information aside from the look in the pictures so they had to guess but if the script was correct the jedi master was observing force beings that controlled and played force users against each other in the beginnings. Someone had managed to cut their strings though because while she had found creatures like this they were sealed behind barriers, in pocket dimensions and banished to places far flung compared to what there could be. She was looking at some fo the other things they had found there and wanting to try and recreate what they had with what the codex Rave had given to her.

"So this should be...." She said it while going outside and they were working on it as the hologram expanded and from the upper balcony she was able to project it as an image of the galactic disc and then it zoomed out until they were pinpricks and swirled with other things around them. A great barrier of energy if they went by it that rebounded and was formed from the bones and energy of those fallen... questionable but she knew where to place a few other things like pocket that gave some of the other artisans approval and one spoke while looking up near the students. "She is at it again, trying to figure out the mysteries of that temple."

The light, that shone through the little gapes of the curtain and enlightened Mariana's room. Slowly but surely that light creeped up its way up to Mariana and woke her up out of her slumber. Tired and yawning, she lifted her upper body and stretched her body, ahs she looked in the direction of the window. It was early morning. Funny that she woke up so early, on her home planet she developed a time, where she would eventually automatically wake up. She hated getting forced to wake up so she made her body used to a specific time to get up. And here on this planet, it worked too, even though the days were longer.

Slowly, she stood up and stretched her body again, this time more in a yoga fashioned way. That way her daily routine, not only to hone her body, but also to relax, stay acrobatic and flexible, and most importantly, it was also to clear the mind. Even though she may be on her way to become a Jedi, which included some changes in lifestyle, some things should never change. She made sure of that. It was already like a reflex, to do some things. Some people needed their morning coffee, Mariana definitely needed this yoga practice in the morning. Therefore she also made her body wake up very early. She wanted to use this extra time always to go after her routine, and then start her day already fit, where others would finally get up.

A few minutes passed and Mariana finished her yoga. Her next thing on the list was showering. Therefore she went under the shower of her bathroom. She liked it hot, cold was never her thing, and after showering, she got out and dried her hair, that she puted into a bun.

She then went to the closet, which was in her room, where she looked at the clothes, that were kindly put in there before she arrived. Before Mariana went to bed yesterday she went to ask if she could get some special robes for her. Not to stand out of course but more to just feel comfortable while looking like a Jedi. She tended to wear tight bodysuits or training suits covered by robes. The bodysuit would be out of breathable material and would feel like a second skin, the robe would provide comfort, which smooth material, that could keep someone warm. That was her usual style, but she also asked for some other robes. Today she chose to put on a robe with short sleeves. The primary colors would be a darker brown tone with black. She put on the robes, quickly looked at herself in the mirror, and was now ready to start her day.

Like every other being, Mariana also needed to eat something, after all, it was necessary. So her first destination for the day was the room to get some food. She went through all the food, presented there, and slowly filled her plate with all kinds of fruits and some other stuff. She usually ate light food in the morning. She didn't want to start her day with a completely full stomach and more importantly, she wanted to watch her health. While some people would eat meat already in the morning or drinks with sugar, She kept it simple and healthy. Like waking her body up step by step. When she was done, she got up and put her plate away.

Now it was finally time to learn. With her hands behind her back and a bright smile, she went to the assigned room to learn about the basics. Now it was finally time, her first lesson was about to begin.

The night had been mostly uneventful... she had managed to get a few things but largely aside from the projection she had found herself drifting to sleep when she was able to. Laying there and she stretched out for a moment as the sound of the waves crashing came.. the sea air and scent of salt was there when she finally awoke in the morning with a stretch. The jedi master walked and went to the balcony that looked out. The moring light stretching across the ocean for a moment before she rolled her shoulders and walked down the small pathway leading to the mess area. She could see the open area and the mists were rising as the heat evaporated the water for a moment.

She stopped there and looked at the droids who were maintaining things but there were a few jedi who were working to cook. There were a few getting the early morning food before lessons when she ate with them. The milk they had was there but she was looking one at some of the first lessons which was more physical training to get everyone awake and ready for the day. The jedi master remained where she was sitting and looked at the few how were up this early seeing one of the students who had come in the ship the day before when she rose up to follow and spoke towards her. "Morning padawan. ou arrived yesterday yes?"

"Good Morning, Maam" Mariana replied and bowed before her, to show her deepest respect for Matsu. She knew bowing was a sign of respect here, therefore she tried to do it always. "Yes, I arrived yesterday here. It is really beautiful here I must admit" she added to her gesture. She smiled slightly and looked at Matsu. Her dark brown eyes inspecting her from bottom to top. "I can't wait to see what we are going to learn from you and the others" Even though it may have sounded like she couldn't wait to learn something as it was a game, she knew how serious someone has to take all this. Being a Jedi could be fun, but there were also a lot of responsibilities. Something Mariana already had, since she had a sister, and took care of her, but being a Jedi was more than just watching over siblings. And that, she hasn't had before. Such responsibility.

She grinned to that with a look on her face though when she took a moment. To look around. "Oh there is a lot on the table, learning the early skills of a jedi is mostly about meditation and focus. Learning to clear your mind and then you can touch the force." She said it and had a look of humor on her face. "But there is also a chance that you have learned a few things and if you are up for it I could use an assistant in the under temple." She said it and stood there with a look on her face. "I can give you much the same lessons as you would be learning but there is a chance to learn something more about the caves here." She said it with a grin while she started walking and clasped her hands behind her back. Fingers going around her wrist but she breathed in and then out the scent of the salt in the islands air. Heading towards one of the buildings where a droid had her satchel and equipment.

"I would love to" she replied and followed Matsu every step she took. "What exactly do you need me for in the under temple?" she asked and looked around while following the Master. It surprised her, that a Master came up to her and asked for assistance. After all, it was her first-day real day here, but this all the more made her more interested in Master Matsu. Maybe she saw something in her? who knows. But she gladly accepted this offer, who would not?

"Well it is always good to have a research assistant that can look at things with fresh eyes. Even the seasoned jedi masters can not notice some things." She said it and walked into the one building that was used as housing for the elevator going down. Crystals that were in the walls gleamed with the force and were in different colors. The lift going down as the jedi master looked at her. "When we came her well when I came here at first. There was not much and we discovered much more. The under temple is much older from when the planet was likely in an ice age and we have found exterior buildings on the mountain and parts of the island. In many cases it was just covered when the waters came back and the ice melted."

She said it and was looking at the padawan but remained there. "It was what I was searchign for when I came here.. the first jedi temple is important but there are ancient things... Ancient beings who can show you questionable things." She said it and thought about the dangerous Tilotny who was powerful and dangerous but well she also had no concept of some things that they did. Small things and the jedi master had learned a lot in terms of expanding her mind outwards and seeing things on a far greater scale then others might be able to. "The temple being here just happened to be a good circumstance which we can look at now."

She stayed there for a moment as the lift came to a stop and deeper into the mountain it opened to reveal a chamber of almost pure kyber that gleamed white and pure. Sculpted statues of jedi watching towards the center where a massive eye was made of the prismatic crystal and the jedi master stood there. "This is the temple of the precepts... I haven't been able to figure out if the ones observing or being observed are supposed to be them but." She pointed up towards the mural that depicted two humanoids fighting with blade while creatures observed them. "We know the extinction event involved the prime jedi and his students to gt these things out of the galaxy. Force gods for lack of a better term."

"Well I don't know if I could be of any help, after all those Jedi are trained to see in many ways, how can I see more than them?" Mariana really wanted to help, but she wasn't quite sure she could be of help, after all, she didn't really know a lot yet about the Force and the Jedi. For her, all this was new, so how could she see some things, when a lot, the Jedi see is not seen by the eyes. At least that's what people used to say a lot about the Jedi. She followed the Jedi Master to the elevator. Quickly stepping into it. The Crystals, that enlightened the elevator were fascinating. Beautiful and even giving some sort of ancient feeling, like an old ancient way of enlightening a room. "So all this was trapped in ice? Unbelievable" She couldn't believe the words of Master Ike as she continued to explain.

While the elevator kept going down, Mariana still listened to Matsu carefully. She understood her words, but she did not understand what she meant by showing questionable things. Was she referring to visions? It all confused her but in some way she felt like all her doubts, questions and her confused mind would understand later on. Even though she was confused she was very interested, what would come now.

The elevator stopped and the doors opened, revealing the under temple. For a moment the beauty of this place took Mariana's breath away. She stepped outside the elevator and slowly turned in circles to inspect every corner. The beautiful crystals, that enlightened the cave paired with the statues were just breathtaking. Something one could not imagine in their head if you would describe it. She walked further into the cave with Matsu as she kept explaining about the cave and the purpose she thinks it had.

Her focus was now in the middle of the under temple. Her eyes going into the direction, in which the Jedi Master pointed at, revealing the murals that seemed to show the past. "Force.....gods?" she quietly whispered to herself. It was the first time she ever heard about force gods. What were they about? So far she heard, that the force was a living thing, that was in everybody and everything. Something that was flowing through us. But force gods was another thing.

"But....Why get them out of the galaxy? Did they harm anybody? Maybe they were in danger?...." She asked Matsu while still inspecting the mural. Would a fresh pair of eyes really help here? She felt like she was pretty uneducated for this. But maybe this would teach her a bit about the force.

 

[Matsu Ike]

Mariana Aaban

Ah... the jedi master looked at her and raised an eyebrow for a moment. "They were in danger?" She said it with something like amusement but also serious thought... she had never thought about it from that and spoke. "A fresh perspective, one who might not know about it can see things one like myself could have missed. or had a different way." She said it with a smile on her face though while walking and she held a hand out. "Lesson the first though when feeling the force and being a jedi is to look at a situation from as many angles as you can. A new place, a new challenge... here you have a chance to learn yes things that others might not but you also have a chance to learn one on one without the classroom which can be beneficial to some. So if you have any questions do not hesitate to ask while I teach you the lessons you would have been learning."

She looked around and inspected everything, her eyes could see.

"I have many questions, to be honest"

she replied to the master with a soft voice. She turned around and looked at Matsu.

"What exactly is the force? I thought the force is something that surrounds everything and everyone, but now, that I know, that there is something like a force god, I don't quite understand. Are they physical beings? Or a manifestation of the force? Or are those, the ones that hold the force, and give us the abilities ?"

She seemed rather confused but who could blame her, everybody would probably be confused in her place since she just recently found out about force gods and didn't even know anything about the force in particular. But through her confusion was also determination. She was interested to learn more and therefore looked at Matsu with one eyebrow lifted, to wait for an answer to her question.

"I mean, God is not equal to being immortal or invincible, right? Gods can die too...I guess" The last part of her sentence, sounded desperate. "So I guess, them being in danger could be possible. If I would be someone, who would like to know everything, I would also talk to the Gods. But maybe, someone came up to them and wanted to seek answers, but the gods did not answer him or her. Therefore, this person may be wanted to kill him."

She shook her head quickly and smiled. "Or maybe I am just going to far with this thought"

 

[Matsu Ike]

Mariana Aaban

The jedi master listened to her and raised an eyebrow but she was getting to hear something interesting perspective wise. A smile forming on her lips before she was walking around and stood next to her holding a hand out. "God does not mean invincible or immortal... you can live a long life much longer then others depending on how you use and are connected to the force." She looked at her though... "But the force is in everything, the air we breathe and the food we eat... it is divided into two forms. The living and the cosmic force. The living force is us... what is alive, what exists and is able to think, to breathe, to love and to hate. THe cosmic force is what the living force comes from and goes back into borrowing energy for a time for our lives and then when we return to it we bring everything that we are back into it and enrich it."

She said it and was using her hands to create images with the white current... illusions that could be seen to try and explain it. She was working to do and show what she had learned from the force priestesses. She was trying to explain it as well when that was something that she had learned... it was also something to explain that beings like this did die but not in ways some really thought. They sort of become part of the universe... the bedlam had shown her much but they were colored by being aspects of another being.. of their father as it were who made them from his emotions. "These things though are par of the cosmic force and that doesn't emasure time or space the same way we perceive it." She smirked though. "With the cosmic aspects of the force one could spread their thoughts and expand their conscious mind to see and feel across the galaxy."
