A mechanical voice sounded. As Kia looks over the readout screen for the results, she sees what she has been anticipating for nearly a day.*Diagnostic of Repulsorlift systems completed.* *Repairs successful.* *Systems fully operational.* *Awaiting command.* ***Miera nodded at Jorran.  "Thus do you see the truth behind it all.  You and I both were taught that the Force is divided into the Light and Dark sides, but that is not the reality of it.  There is no Light Side or Dark Side to the Force, it just is.  Light and Dark, Good and Evil, they are just words. Ideas created in antiquity by frightened peoples to rationalize the unknown, to encompass it in what they were already familiar with: morality.But the Jedi caught on to one truth.  The Force it not simply a power of nature, it is something much more.  The Force really is, is the soul of the universe.  Everything in existance is part of it.  Life is able to exist because of the Force, and whenever life ends, the tiny portion of the Force that fueled that life returns to the Force.When a creature is born, a soul is created from the Force just as the body is created from the matter of the universe.  Those we refer to as Force Sensitive are a different matter altogether.  We are something more than simple life forms, in that our souls are incomplete.  When we are born, we are left with a tangible connection to the Force which is unnatural and unintended.  While most souls are limited to their bodies, we are directly connected to the entirity of the universe.  Thus do we have the power that we do.Although we live and die just like any other life form, we are living wounds upon the Force.  Wounds that the Force is continually trying to heal.  The more we concentrate on our connection to the Force, the larger the wound becomes.  As a Force Sensitive grows in power, so does the temptation of the so-called Dark Side.  The Dark Side is nothing more than a manifestation of the Force's attempts to destroy the Force Sensitive.  The stronger one becomes in the 'Dark Side', the more dessicated and corrupt they become, as the Force attempts to cause them decay and draw them into recklessness and hate that would end their lives and end the wound.The 'Light Side' is simply a conscious path to avoid the 'Dark Side', and has no extraordinary intrinsic value."</blockquote>
