The objects' history books (Psychometry, open to all)

[WelshPsych]

To simply burn the memory away, that was her answer. Kaden told to keep it, use it. Defeat the anger it brings. However, the sadness was the emotion that was overwhelming, the one that he struggled to keep in check. He was finding himself spiralling into a depressive darkness. Nothing seemed to be of importance and the image just kept replaying in his head. Over and over.

He closed his eyes, wishing away all his thoughts. Then they did, he found himself calming down. Controlling his emotions once more. His instinctive bottling technique leaped into action. He found his calm, as he raised his hand and touched a broken blaster. Another flash and he saw himself watching another scene unfold.

This time men running, rushing around. A lightsaber came twirling into action, slashing the blasters into useless junk and the people into corpses. It was swift but brutal. He couldn't tell who was on which side, such is war at times.

Fashionably late to the training session over psychometry, Arisa would only arrive after the class was well under underway. There was a noticeable taint to the ambiance of the room, dark auras and emotions. While no practitioner of psychometry, she had read about it enough from her studies to know that trawling through the past of some objects could lead to unearthing some uncomfortable events.

Yuroic was here, up to something at the front of the room. As she approached him, she gave a small nod of acknowledgment to Master Med-Beq. While keeping a respectable distance away, she could look around to his front to see his hand on a busted blaster.

Through the Force, she saw how his aura had begun to intertwine with the blaster in a manner she assumed was necessary for the psychometry process.

Quietly, she observed her apprentice by sight and Force as he worked.

"Grandmaster, here's the rundown: the objects' memories are stored inside Force-imprints on an object, with the memories being like an onion, with the most recent at the top. That's why you need to touch an object to be able to read their history books; important events in objects' lives, as well as their circumstances, will stick out like sore thumbs"

[member="Arisa Yune"] arrived well after [member="Yuroic Xeraic"] showed a grasp but at the same time struggling with the strong emotions that can sometimes be found on items, all of which are from battlefields on Dromund Kaas, or, in the lightsabers' cases, in orbit. So she was given a summarized version of the lesson, and Yuroic could fill Arisa in with more details afterward. The other three people were already coming up against the limitations of the technique...

"Sometimes intense emotions can be felt if the events in which the object took part were emotionally loaded to their users: your padawan is the expression of that fact"
