A New Power

"The creatures are commonly known to exist, but only those on the Jedi Council and their most trusted commanders were ever aware of the vornskrs' acute ability to detect force sensitives." Miera said, thinking for moment before continuing.

"Vader would be Palpatine's apprentice, then? Then he must be a fallen Jedi...I wonder which one it was. This Luke Skywalker fellow...would he be the son of Anakin Skywalker? If so, and he is anything like his father, he is inept and lacks balance. I wouldn't recommend seeking training from him if he is." She paused again.

"So there are Jedi in the Galaxy again. Whether this is for good or ill is yet to be seen."

"I didn't agree with the Empire, or the Rebellion, not entirely because of what some claimed to do in its name, but Skywalker has done more then anyone to end the Empire's cruelty. He was the one that destroyed the first of the Emperor's Deathstars, and then on the Second Deathstar he defeated Darth Vader and the Emperor, I don't think you get to call a Jedi who defeated two Sith Lords incompetent. His actions against the Deathstar stopped the Empire from blowing up any planet besides Alderaan."

"You have to understand, the Skywalkers are some of the biggest celebrities in the Galaxy. Princess Liea was the youngest senator before the Emperor disolved the Senate, and she went on to lead the Rebellion, and her twin brother Luke Destroyed the Deathstar, and slew the Emperor and Vader. Both were instrumental in changing the Galaxy, and now Leia looks like she is on the short list to head up the entire government."
 

"Well, I have been stuck on a hostile uncharted planet on the fringe of the galaxy with no way whatsoever of recieving news of current events. I tend not to know these things." Miera laughed into the comm.

"Still, regardless of his achievements, this Luke may seek to teach the path of the Jedi. If it is training you seek, there are alternatives."
 

Aasan listens quietly, deciding that some of his more intimate knowledge of the Empire and its beginning were best left to private conversation. Some things should not be spoken to the young about. Especially the things he saw.

But upon hearing Miera speaking of 'alternatives' to training, he frowns underneathe his breath mask. Making sure to speak away from the comm, the Kel Dor says to Kia, "I have a bad feeling about this. These are speaches I have heard before, and they never prove to be good ideas. Do not jump into anything without knowledge of it, especially the Force..."
 

"I'm not planning on jumping into anything," Kia replies, answering both of their questions at once. "I don't know about any alternatives, the Hunters would have slain those others just as readily as the Jedi, and there were a lot more jedi. Look, I'm more worried about getting my ship up to working order and getting outsystem then learning some hokey religion, my abilities serve me just fine, If I need to learn to use the Force, I'm sure I will. If Skywalker is really building an Academy, then that sounds like a place that I should at least check out. I don't know anything about other Force Users, but I know that the Jedi are the good guys." she says with a cynical laugh, that betrayed a bit of discomfort in her current path.
 

Adrial Strogg : Female Human Sethi Consular 3

As was common for her after a day of excitement, the sethi padawan slept in. She had not learned to control her feelings like Master Pannar had taught. She was relatively good at it until something big happened. Then she would exhaust herself and the following morning would inevitably sleep in. As she awoke she noted that the morning was almost gone. She quickly rises and dresses in her padawan robes and moves toward the common meeting hall. As she enters she sees that Master Pannar is talking on a comlink. As she hurries to present herself before Master Pannar, she hears the end of someone else’s voice over the comlink. "... know that the Jedi are the good guys." She stops before her Master and awaits her acknowledgement of Adiral's presence. Adrial stands there patiently as she has been taught.

OOC:
Vader: Luke! I'm your father.
Luke: Ben! Why didn't you tell me?
Vader: But wait! There is something else. I know what you are getting for Christmas.
Luke: How could you know what I am getting for Christmas?
Vader: Because I felt your presents...
 

Miera nods to Adrial with a smile before speaking into the commlink. "If you say so, Kia. I must be going now, one of my students requires my attention."

She turned off the com and placed it to her side. "Did you have a good rest, Adrial?"

OOC - Tailspinner - :p
 

Adrial Strogg : Female Human Sethi Consular 3

She nods. "Forgive me Master Pannar. I know that I have been taught to control my emotions. But I allowed yesterday's excitement to get the best of me. I will strive to keep my emotions in better check rather then the reverse." She bows. "I am ready for today's training." But then her stomach growls very loudly and she gets very embarassed. "...of course after I have eaten breakfast..." But then she remembers the time of day. "...or lunch?" She stands, waiting for her Master's reply, thoroughly embarassed.
 

"Do not worry about it, Adrial. You should be able to control your emotions when necessary to keep them from blocking your judgement, but do not try to block them out entirely. If you were to do so, you would be forsaking that which makes you human." Miera said comfortingly.

"I'll wake up Arias, he should be starting Jorran's training today. Why don't you go give Kal a nudge, see if you can wake him up, then rouse Jorran and meet us by the cooking area. Orran and the children should have lunch ready soon. We can eat as we watch Arias test his abilities, that should be entertaining."

Miera got up an headed towards the other end of the hut to rouse Arias.
 

While pacing around the ship without anything better to do, Aasan begins to think back to his time with the Antarian Rangers. Memories of his old partner, the strange thrill of thwarting the Seperatists while escaping almost certain death, the fear he felt during the Purge, it all came flooding back. *WHAM* Aasan dripped over an exposed power coupling and fell flat on his face. After hurriedly checking his breath mask to make sure it wasn't dislodged, he grumbled his bad luck of late as he got back to his feet, and stared accusingly at the exposed coupling.

His accusing stare turned to one of confusion. The coupling was seperated just where he had tripped over it, but he hadn't felt anything crucial on the ship fail. Could it be...? Nah, not likely. Just in case, though, Aasan crouched down and joined the coupling back together, and suddenly found himself flat on his back as sudden jolt swept the ship.

At the cockpit, Kia was forced out of a daydream as a sudden boost of power found the engines.
