His honesty was a great blessing indeed. If a man can know his own heart he can become unstoppable.
"Then I would say that you are a Jedi already. For those are the words of a true Jedi Knight indeed."
She paused for a moment to consider. Letting the Force guide her to what to say next. Letting it teach her as she would teach him.
"Then it is time to prepare you for the Jedi Trials. A true test for a warrior's heart. But we must be ready. The unprepared face certain death."
She nodded. He was ready to begin.
"Come with me back to the landing pad. We shall begin your practice there."

The pair returned to the landing pad and Karen disappeared into one of the Flight Hangers. She soon appeared with a tall war droid in tow. Easily twice the size of Jyfo. Worse yet? It was made of pure Phrik. Not even a lightsaber could overcome that.
"This is Fear. A Mandalorian War Droid programmed to destroy Jedi. Fear is not always cooperative with me but today he has agreed to be your sparring partner. I do hope he decides to play nicely."
The tall silver droid made no comment nor reply. It's single red eye simple watching Jyfo. Examining him. Judging him. Ready to process his every move.
"All right Apprentice. Let's see those sword moves you've told me about. ...I'm going to give you only 60 seconds to spar with Fear here. See if you can damage him. After 60 seconds well take a break to see what you've learned thus far. Fear will be using a non-lethal stun blade. But do not show weakness. He can easily crush a man unprepared with his sheer brute force. You are not guaranteed to come away unscathed."
She held up a datapad and nodded to the massive droid. It did not flinch nor cease it's damnable staring. So Karen returned her gaze to Jyfo,
"Are you ready to face your Fear, Apprentice? You can always say no. ...Hmph. Otherwise! Take your opening stance. It's time to show your Master what you can do!"

*ooc: The goal of today's training is to prepare Jyfo for the Jedi Trails. To begin, we'll be mixing criteria. Your objective is to stay alive against Fear for only 60 secs. A, surprisingly, difficult task. Especially since it is currently impossible for Jyfo to win. Even using all of your character's Padawan skills at maximum. Fear possesses no Force Powers but his sheer metallic strength, and speed, is enough to flip a car and smash it back down to earth again. So... The test is not to see if you can win? But to see if you can stand back up again after you fail. A worthy test of sheer determination. Even when winning is almost certainly impossible.
Indeed. Fear will be your greatest opponent until you face a real Sith opponent in PvP. And when you overcome your Fear? You will be ready for anything. So take your opening stance and prepare yourself for a fight. I will be replying as the droid, as if I was your opponent. You may attack first or prepare your defenses. Either way? Good luck. Training begins now.
