Could we try force pushing the saber into the guy so he stabs himself?

>>944853
That's generally a tough move to pull off, especially on another Force Sensitive.

Would be a pretty high DC although it might get him to focus less on Retsma to deal with you.

Your practice saberstaff already in hand, you run quicker than you knew you could to Master Retsma, ready to defend him against the approaching beast.

“Form a perimeter around him!” you say, “If he attacks one of us, we all jump him.”

Your comrades quickly follow your orders while Eri’Ta begins to pick herself up, raising a blaster in her uninjured arm and mutter curses to herself.

The Flesh Raider paces as you and your friends position yourselves in a semicircle around him. Suddenly he lunges forward toward you in a charge his free hand moving the ground with his feet like a rancor.

In the periphery of your vision, you see your friends lit by the dull glows of their practice sabers looking at you, Nazz with worry, Ria with surprise, and Jac with that same fear he had when Retsma was knocked unconscious. You turn your attention back on your enemy as you charge into each other.

>Critical Success

As you and the Flesh Raider charge at each other, the Flesh Raider itself roaring in anticipation, a small smile finds its way onto your lips and an unbelievable sense of calm covers you. This thing can’t win. You have Master Retsma, Eri’ta, and the whole Twi’lek village to protect. You have your friends to protect. You won’t let them down.

The Flesh Raider strikes downward with all its strength, but you deflect with one side of your saberstaff and spin the blade to connect the other side to its head with a hard blow. You might not have a real lightsaber yet, but the electrical burn from the practice sabers along with the force of it has left the creature stunned. You deliver another quick blow to its side and then stab forward, forcing the creature to retreat, nearly falling onto its back as it does. You swing again and lock blades with the now wounded creature as it snarls at you.

What will you do?

As you stand there, blade locked with the Flesh Raider, its beastly strength begins to push you back bit by bit.

“A little help?” you say through your grimace to overpower the monster.

Nazz is the first to react with a strong hit to the creature’s side that gives you an opening to push it back. “That’s for Master Retsma!” Nazz says as she continues to circle the Flesh Raider looking for another opening. Ria follows by planting her foot on its chest to push it back and slicing at its hand, causing it to lose its lightsaber for a moment. The Flesh Raider retreats and uses the Force to pull the saber back to its hand where it starts to take a step forward only for Jac to slam into it from the side with his shoulder, knocking it off balance and letting you land another series of blows that the thing tries in vain to block against. Four opponents are simply too much to keep track of. With another flurry of attacks, the creature retreats to the bridge.

The Force flows through you like a calm wave that slowly builds until you push it out in what feels gentle and easy to you. You open your eyes to see the Flesh Raider fly backward nearly a quarter of the way across the long bridge. Taking a few steps back, you nod silently to Ria and Nazz. With a few easy swings, the ropes tying the bridge let loose. The Flesh Raider charges forward across the bridge only for his feet to find nothing but thin air. He plummets down into the valley between the hills, letting out a final, chilling roar that is lost as he enters the forest below with an audible /thud/ when he connects with the ground.

“Welp,” Nazz says falling directly onto her back, “I need a nap. And maybe some gizka greasers. And maybe some eggs to go with that. And maybe a roast galma. And--”

“We understand your hunger,” replies Ria curtly. “What is Master Retsma’s condition?”

You look back to find Jac and Eri’Ta standing over Retsma.

“Damnit, Retsma, this is what happens when you get all heroic,” Eri’Ta says as she injects a medpac into him.

“How’s he doing?,” says Nazz as she approaches with you and Ria.

“He’ll live,” Jac says rubbing his head, “But it would be nice to get him conscious. Eri’Ta says it’ll take about an hour for a transport to get here and give us a ride back to the settlement or the temple.”

“What? How long would it be to walk?” Nazz asks as she rubs her eyes.

“About an hour,” Ria answers.

“Shit, anyone else have a morning class tomorrow?” Nazz says as she sits back down.

Ria laughs, “I’m sure rescuing a Jedi Master is a good excuse for missing a class.”

“Anything I can do?” you say to Eri’Ta as you kneel to get a closer look at Master Retsma.

“Yeah,” Eri’Ta says as she goes takes a syringe out of her pack and begins to ready it to inject into Retsma. “Hold him still so that he doesn’t break my syringe when I inject him with this adrenaline.”

You do as she says and hold Retsma’s arm still, seeing that he is surprisingly well-built for an old guy. You notice that the bruise on Retsma’s head has swelled significantly. “Is that swelling bad?”

“I’m not a doctor, kid,” Eri’Ta responds, “But the medpac should bring that swelling down after a bit. The adrenaline will help it move through his bloodstream faster and it might wake him up if we’re lucky.”

Finding the vein, she injects the adrenaline into it. Master Retsma sits up suddenly, throwing you and Eri’ta off, causing his arm to start to bleed. “Oh, my head!” he says wincing as he touches it. You see him close his eyes and focus on the wound on his arm. After a few seconds, it stops bleeding.

“You owe me a medpac and an adrenaline stim,” Eri’Ta says as she dusts herself off. “Also.”

Eri’Ta punches Retsma in the gut, causing him to double over, “I’d slap you but I don’t want that head wound to get any worse. What in Force’s name were you thinking?”

“It’s easy to miss something you aren’t looking for,” he says, “And I wasn’t looking for a rock.”

“Are you sure you weren’t just testing us and faking it or something?” Jac asks.

“If I were, I would not have taken that rock to the head. Seems like you kids did a good job regardless.”

“Hey,” you say, scratching your horns, “Where is our backup? Shouldn’t they be here by now?”

As if hearing you, Ara emerges from the forest, holding an unconscious Nosho and followed by Lu and Yusa. She sets Nosho down and says through heavy breathing, “Where...is...Kay?”

“...she’s not with you?” Nazz asks.

“No!” Ara says, clearly annoyed, “She said she ‘sensed something’ and ran off which was immediately followed by an ambush from a single flesh raider that managed to knock out Nosho and I’ve been carrying his ass for the past fifteen minutes! So where is she? Where’s that big threat with you guys she sensed? Force, I am going to--”

Ara’s rant is cut off when a flesh raider emerges from the forest. You ready your practice saber only to see a green lightsaber go through it’s chest.

“Finally!” Kay says as she emerges from the brush and takes her lightsaber out of the creature that gurgles on the ground. “I thought I’d never find this guy! Once I killed his friends he took to running and it seems like he knows this forest a lot better than I do.” She looks at Master Retsma’s swelling head and starts to laugh, “Hehe what happened to you, Retsma? Did some Flesh Raiders play ‘Bantha pile on the Jedi Master’ or did you just piss off Eri’Ta?”

“A little of both, Kay. Thank you for joining us,” Retsma responds. “Apparently there was a flesh raider who was force sensitive and threw a rock at me when I wasn’t looking.”

“Oh no! A rock! A Jedi's only weakness!” Kay responds as she walks toward where the bridge was and starts feeling at the trees that surround it. “That’s pretty interesting, though. I suppose there was bound to be one eventually, though.”

“This one had a lightsaber, though,” Jac says, “And he could use it. He was using Form 1 a lot of the time and even deflected a blaster bolt back at Eri’Ta.”

“There it is!” says Kay as she stabs through a tree that turns out to be made of metal. “Now the air defense cannons hidden in the valley won’t start shooting up a transport that comes to pick us up.”

“Kay, be serious,” you say to her. “What if someone trained that thing?”

“Oh please! How many of you Initiates, after like a week of training, can deflect a blaster bolt back at a target?” she says, closing her lightsaber.

Yusa, Ria, and Ara raise their hands, Yusa shooting a surprised glance toward Ara.

“See? I bet some apprentice dropped their lightsaber and that thing picked it up and, after seeing a couple Jedi deflect blaster fire, practiced it up for a while. It’s nothing to worry about,” Kay responds. “If a couple Initiates could handle it, I doubt it got any real kind of training other than maybe spying on some Jedi while they trained.”

“I disagree, Kay,” Retsma says, sitting down on a nearby rock and ignoring the pouting face that Kay gives him in return. “I may be old and I may not have been looking for it, but if that thing hadn’t been trained to suppress its Force presence, it wouldn’t have gotten the drop on me. We also need to find that lightsaber to see who it belonged to.”

Kay seems strangely annoyed by this.

“Why did you separate from my brother and the others?” Ria asks. “You were instructed to watch the Initiates.”

“I sensed a couple stragglers moving through the forest,” Kay shrugs, “Just tying up loose ends. I figured it wasn’t worth bringing everyone for.”

“Master,” Yusa says, “Why don’t we go find the saber tonight?”

“Because, Yusa, it’s nearly midnight and I have a head injury. You can sense a lightsaber crystal easily enough. Either Kay or I will retrieve it tomorrow and, considering how reluctant Knight Kay is acting, it will probably be me.”

“You wait here, Master. I can sense for the saber right now,” you say, activating your practice saber and approaching the least steep side of the hill you can find.

“No, that’s...well, I suppose we’ve got a little less than an hour. It’s about a 10 minute descent into those forests and if you can sense it right away, go for it. Kay will go with you and whoever else wants to go,” Retsma says as he’s handed an ice pack by Eri’Ta who goes to check on an unconscious Nosho.

“And what if /I/ don’t want to go?” Kay replies.

“Well, Knight Kay, I would invoke my authority as a Master of the Order in charge of these Initiates and tell you I give you charge of any Initiate that leaves my sight, such as Paxious right now.”

Kay sighs and activates her lightsaber, putting on a slight smile, “Fine, old man. We’ll be quick. Don’t leave without us.”

“Jac, stay here and help Eri’Ta with treating Nosho,” Retsma says.

“I’ll stay behind too,” Ara says.

Nazz giggles and looks between Ara and Jac as Ara turns red, “Of course you will.”

“I will remain behind as well. I must rest,” Ria comments.

“So that makes it super-blonde boy, greeny, horny, and me? That’ll do. Let’s go, team,” Kay says hurrying off.

As you descend into the ravine, you reach out with the Force, looking for the lightsaber crystal. You aren’t exactly sure what you’re looking for. For a second you think you have it, but it slips away, not like something running away, more like something sinking.

“I cannot sense anything,” Yusa says with disappointment. “It appears for a second, then seems lost in these woods.”

“I wish I could be of more help,” Kay says, “But I pretty much exhausted myself running after those Flesh Raiders earlier. I’m running off of fumes at this point.”

“I dunno ‘pale-y’,” Nazz says to her, “I thought Jedi Knights were supposed to be tough. I didn’t know 15 minutes of running was a Jedi’s one weakness.”

“Try using the Force to propel yourself through the unfamiliar forest at super speed while keeping track of four flesh raiders running from you while keeping track of the traps they set while keeping track of your Initiates behind you with the Force to make sure they can handle themselves while using the Force to check on you guys since I sensed something off,” Kay says without looking back.

“Wait,” Nazz says suddenly, “I got it!”

“What?” Kay responds.

“I found it. It’s in the river. I bet if we hurry, we won’t even run into any flesh raiders,” Nazz says. “What, are you sad a Jedi Initiate showed you up?”

“No, I’m sad I have to trudge through a river at midnight while I’m exhausted. Well, let’s hope blondie over there can swim,” Kay says as she leads the way.

The four of you make your way to the river without incident.

“It’s down here, I think,” Nazz says.

“You /think/? If I get soaked and it’s not down there, you are walking back blindfolded to test your Force Sight,” Kay says.

You locate it, easily enough. The crystal feels almost alive and seems to call out to you in some ways. It’s in your hand before Kay finishes her sentence.

“Let’s go,” you say, turning around and starting to head back.

“Should we search for its body?” Yusa asks, “Make sure that it is slain?”

“Pax through the thing off a cliff, I think it’s dead,” Nazz replies.

Yusa seems to accept this and begins to follow you and Nazz as Kay stands still for a second, observing you with a raised eyebrow.

“The body. It’s back near the river lodged between the branches of two trees. Definitely dead. It looks like it choked on something, though. I can sense something in its throat which is odd considering it should have died from the fall,” you say, deep in thought.

Kay raises both her eyebrows this time. “You sensed a /dead/ body in the middle of a forest? You realize that to sense something like that, you have to tune out all the life of the actual forest, /then/ focus on the little tendrils of leftover life on that corpse and even then, you have to tune out all the dead animals and decaying plants that you might confuse it with and… My point is, you’re either very lucky or very good.”

“He tries,” Nazz says, pointing her chin up to Kay.

“No,” Yusa comments, “He doesn’t try. He just does.”

“Well, do you guys want to check the body? See if it has any “clues” on its possible “trainer” or whatever?” Kay asks.

“Nah, we’ve got the saber and that’ll probably tell us enough already. It’s not like Flesh Raiders have datapads or anything,” Nazz says.

“I believe any information is good information. We may be late to the transport, but what we learn of our enemy will be worth it,” Yusa chimes in.

“I’m the fastest here. If you want, I’ll go check the body for you and run to catch up,” Kay says.

What will you do?

> You confirmed the kill and got the saber. Go back to the transport
> Send Kay to check the corpse. She’s the fastest.
> Go back and check the corpse as a group. You’ll be late to the transport but it’s not like they’ll leave without you.

I can't believe you guys already figured out my endgame of Darth Ara's sister and her apprentice (you) destroying the Jedi Order and then making out on a pile of dead younglings.

The quest is ruined.

>>946523
To clarify, you can sense an object in its throat. You can't sense how it died or that it was Force Choked, only that there is an object in its throat which is unexpected for something that should have died from a fall.

>>946497
>Go back and check the corpse as a group. You’ll be late to the transport but it’s not like they’ll leave without you.
Don't let Kay "check up on" the body by herself. She will remove the mind control thing in its throat.

Well Regardless Flesh raider got the drop on a master, and something is in it's throat that should not be there. Something is up, and it's not safe to go alone.

So where is the part where we trip 10 the unaware seduction roll for Kay?

“Considering this thing knocked out a Jedi Master, let’s stick together,” you say, turning around and heading back to the river. “I’d rather not have to carry anyone back.”

“I’m agreeing to this only because you have thoroughly impressed my, Horns,” Kay says to you with a genuine smile.

“His name is Pax. Or Paxious. Or Paxy but I feel like he wouldn’t like to be called that because it’s super cutesy and he doesn’t seem like the type to… okay you get what I mean. Call him by his name,” Nazz says, her face steadily turning more red as she goes on.

Kay holds in a laugh at that but responds, “Alright, Pax. Let’s get moving.”
______________________________________________________________________________

Yusa climbs the tree and knocks down the body of the Flesh Raider which is somehow already starting to wreak despite not having been dead for even an hour.

“Okay, before we cut open the throat, we should check the body so we don’t get everything gross,” you say.

Everyone seems to agree with this.

You find a map of Flesh Raider camps hidden in a pouch. Looks like you did manage to get all the ones on your hill. It shows the camps on the next hill too. That might be useful to Master Retsma.

“Kay, you’re the only one with a lightsaber that cauterizes as it cuts and as a result, is a lot less messy. Will you do the honors?”

Kay opens her green lightsaber and makes one clear cut through the neck of the creature, beheading it. Nazz grabs a stick and digs through the head and pulls out something covered in gore. She accidentally clicks a button and...it’s a lightsaber!

“It had /two/ lightsabers? Huh. I wonder which one it fought us with,” Yusa comments.

“So it lived through the fall and then thought it needed to get rid of this lightsaber, so it swallowed it,” Kay comments. “Or maybe it just landed in its mouth during the fall somehow. Less likely, but possible.”

“Maybe he got hungry,” Nazz says giving you all a wide smile and a slight giggle when you look at her.

“We’d better hurry back. Transport should be there in about 10 minutes and it’s a 15 minute walk and climb back,” Kay comments, tucking the map into her back pocket as Yusa tucks the lightsaber into his.

>Cont.

“Bout time you lot got back,” Jac comments, “We were just about to take off and circle around to look for you.”

“Sorry, we were busy letting Pax over here dazzle us by finding the dead body using the Force AND sensing a lightsaber stuck in its throat,” Nazz comments proudly.

“He sure is something,” Kay comments, as she approaches Master Retsma. “Master, I apologize for my behavior before. I allowed my fatigue to manifest in disrespect toward you and toward the task of watching these Initiates. They have all proven themselves to be capable in my eyes.” She gives a deep bow before Retsma who merely nods. “Oh,” she says, after getting up from her bow, “Tell me once the Zabrak passes his trials. An apprentice like that would be /very/ nice.”

Well then.

You step onto the transport with everyone inside and get ready for the journey back to the temple. You need a nice long sleep after this whole ordeal.

Kay was originally just being nice to her sister's friends but was kinda annoyed by the whole ordeal of having to babysit Initiates, even older Initiates.

You made her decide it was worth it, though.

Yusa has decided you're actually pretty damn cool.

Ara admires the fact that you didn't take all of Kay's shit and is absolutely in awe of the idea that you impressed Kay.

You awake with a groan. Your mattress is inviting and comfortable. You’re reminded of your home system where after a late night of fending off a herd of Kath hounds looking to make a quick snack out of some of your crops, you’d wake up to your father’s stern words.

“Up, boy. We eat if we work, so we sleep when work’s done. I’ve got six harvester droids still busted up from last night that we’re going to fix.”

You sit up and rub your horns, noticing they’re slightly more unkempt than you’re used to them being. The dormitories are still dark and your first class of the day won’t start for a while. You could probably get another hour of sleep and still have time to get breakfast.

You wonder what Advanced Force Techniques will entail.

What will you do?

> Go meditate. It would be good preparation for the class.

You make a mental note to file your horns when you get the chance later today. You thank the Force you used the Fresher last night at least to get the scent of sweat, blood, and Flesh Raider out. Luckily the storage for your Jedi robes also washed them while you were asleep so that scent doesn’t remain.

You stretch and hop out of bed, deciding to make your way to the Initiate meditation room to get some use out of it. The temple is solitary in the morning and you travel through the winding hallways without encountering another Jedi. Finding the room, you enter and sit yourself in the center, legs crossed, eyes closed

You quickly find that your lack of sleep combined with the strain of last night has left you lacking in concentration. You get some nice meditation in but you feel you can do so much better. Normally, you’d ask Master Beril for advice but she’s still under arrest according to your knowledge.

Resigned, you get up and stretch, feeling ever so slightly more aware of your surroundings than before you started. The cafeteria must be open by now. You should--

As you walk through the hallway, a heavy hand falls on your shoulder from behind. You nearly jump out of your skin as the hand pulls you around to face its owner. You stare into the face of Master Hallar.

“Initiate Paxious. I am happy to have found you,” Hallar says in a tone that implies he has never nor will he ever feel happy. “I was briefed on your little excursion with Master Retsma and the other Initiates. You and a few of the others impressed quite a bit. If you don’t mind, though, I have some questions for you regarding it, if you are not doing something of higher value.”

What will you say?

> “Of course Master Hallar, I’d be willing to answer any questions you have.”
> “I’d rather not. I need to get a good breakfast in my stomach before class.”
> “Sure, Master, but only if you agree to have a sparring match with me later.”

“Of course, Master Hallar,” you say with a bright grin that he returns with a grimace that you assume is an attempt at returning your smile. “I’d be willing to answer any questions you have. Why don’t we get breakfast?”

You walk to the cafeteria with Master Hallar in silence, keeping up with his uncomfortably fast pace. Grabbing some eggs and toast, you sit down at the relatively empty cafeteria save for a knight and a master you don’t recognize laughing to each other about a recent adventure.

Hallar sits down across from you sipping on a glass of milk and holding some sort of fruit, “Firstly, Initiate, I’d like you to know that my investigation into Master Beril’s confinement is nearly finished and she will be released soon.”

You breath a sigh of relief at the thought of the old woman’s return to the library.

“One of the temple guards managed to recover security footage that shows someone, although I cannot be certain who, planting the evidence. While I could talk for an increasingly long period about my theories, this is neither the time nor the place.”

Haller sips his milk with a small slirp.

“I’m glad to hear Master Beril’s coming back, Master Hallar,” you say simply.

“And I as well. She was and is a dear friend of mine,” Hallar replies, “Now, regarding the actions of one Knight Kay last night, the counsel of Masters here spoke of it, and agreed that she acted lazily and without consideration, but not maliciously. However, I would like to clear up some details with you. Now, what to you seemed most curious about Knight Kay’s actions from the previous night?”

What do you say?

> She left the other Initiates alone

>>953571
>She seemed to want to go off on her own a lot

>>953571
>> She seemed very slow to try to recover anything from the Flesh Raider once we defeated it
She claimed fatigue and some frustration at having to watch over us Initiates. There were multiple times during the attempt to find the lightsaber, the dead body of the Flesh Raider, and subsequent investigation of the body that she pressed to leave the area in favor of safety and being on time for the transport.

I think that says it most completely and gives her reasoning neutrally enough.

>>953580
This.

>>953571
> She wasn’t there to back us up when we met the Force Sensitive Flesh Raider
> She seemed very slow to try to recover anything from the Flesh Raider once we defeated it
> She seemed to want to go off on her own a lot

It was ...... Odd. Mention the whole force sprinting , tracking the raiders she was after AND her initiates too. That seems..... far fetched honestly, but given I'm a student I can't honestly say she couldn't.

>>953571
>She seemed very slow to try to recover anything from the Flesh Raider once we defeated it
> She seemed to want to go off on her own a lot

Point in fact the only time she seemed excited to go get the body was when she volunteered to do it by herself

>>953607
>>953598
>>953588
These are all great points.

Writing some kind of weird amalgamation of all this.

>>953619
dis gon be gud

You spend a moment in silent thought, forming your words with great care.

“Well, Master,” you begin, “I suppose the first thing I found odd was that she said she was tired from tracking a few Flesh Raiders while using the Force to keep track of the other Initiates and us. Yet she didn’t seem to sense Master Retsma was unconscious or at least didn’t worry about it as much as I’d expect a Jedi Knight to.”

“We asked her this as well,” Hallar says, “She claimed that she was on her way to you when she sensed whatever you were fighting take a big hit from you. She was quick to praise you during our questioning of her. After then, she assumed you could handle it and went to chase down the remaining Flesh Raider you witnessed her kill. As for her fatigue, Knight Kay is known for her skill with the blade, not with the Force. Regardless, I find it odd that she felt the need to use the Force to keep an eye on both Initiate groups when simply using a communicator with Master Retsma and an Initiate in her group would have sufficed.”

You continue, “But that seemed like her main reason for not wanting to go after the Flesh Raider’s body. I figured a Jedi Knight would be a bit more dedicated, you know?”

“I would agree with that sentiment Paxious,” Hallar says, gritting his teeth.

“But, she did become enthusiastic about recovering the body when it gave her the chance to go off alone,” you point out.

“Interesting,” Master Hallar says, furrowing his brow.

“It seemed like she wanted to go off on her own an awful lot now that I think about it.”

“Well,” Master Hallar says as he stands up, “That’s enough for now. Thank you for your time, Paxious.”

“Master!” you say quickly, “any chance you could pay me back with a spar some time later?”

Hallar gives you the first genuine smile you have ever seen on him, “Well, I suppose I have some time this afternoon. Meet me in the garden after you have eaten lunch.”

What will you do?

You finish your breakfast quickly and start heading to class, hands scratching your horns in deep thought about what to make of Ara’s sister.

Oh Force, your horns are really getting out of hand. You feel the rough, jagged nature of an unfiled horn and wince at the memory of your father throwing you your first horn file with a laugh and teasing you, “You’ll poke your eye out if you keep letting those things grow like that, boy.”

As you’re walking to the classroom located a few rooms down from the library, Nazz falls in next to you.

“It’s the shark slayer himself! How you feeling, Pax?” she says with large bags under her eyes.

What do you say?

“I’m fine, why do I not look fine? I’m a little tired. My horns look okay, right? Not too rough?” you say to Nazz without looking at her as you rub your horns with a concerned look upward.

“Well they aren’t as big as the bags under my eyes at least,” Nazz says as she yawns.

“Yeah, I didn’t want to be rude or anything,” you tell her, “But did you sleep at all last night?”

“Oh, sure!” she says brightly before letting out another yawn. “I got a solid hour. Maybe even two!”

You stop dead in your tracks and stare at her. “But why? We got back quick enough for you to get like six hours if you went to bed early.”

“Well,” she says between a flurry of blinks, “I had stuff to do.”

“What stuff requires you only get an hour of sleep?” you say skeptically.

“Important stuff,” she says vaguely with a smile that seems to dare you to ask more about it.

“So,” you say as you approach the classroom, “You ready to lift some stuff with your mind?”

“Honestly, I can barely lift myself with my mind right now,” she says, accentuating this by gesturing wildly with her left arm at her right and flopping her right arm up and down weakly.

You both make your way into the classroom where you see Master Rava setting rocks or varying size all around the room. It seems that you and Nazz are the first to arrive.

What will you do?

You decide to drop it for now, partially to mess with Nazz just a bit for playing coy and partly because you’re more interested in what Master Rava is currently doing.

“Do you need some help, Master Rava?” you ask. The rocks don’t look particularly heavy, some are even the size of pebbles. But there are a lot of them.

Nazz at first gives an annoyed glance at you not continuing to question her but when she looks at what Master Rava is doing, seems more interested in that. “Yeah we can help you with your...rock arranging?”

Rava gives a laugh at Nazz’s comment, “Why thank you Initiates. Would you mind setting these rocks at the other end of the room? Arrange them any way you like, just give them enough space.”

Rava hands you and Nazz a bucket of rocks. You take it from her expecting it to be light by the way she was carrying it, but nearly drop it when you try to hold it up. Nazz lends a hand and you tow the box to the other side of the room.

“Idea,” Nazz says suddenly after you put the bucket down. Rather than taking each individual rock out, Nazz gives the bucket a kick, spilling the rocks onto the floor. “There. Now we just have to move them around on the floor.”

“How did that not kill your foot?” you say, remembering how heavy the bucket was.

“My foot is dead,” Nazz says with a smile. “It kicked the bucket.”

You try not to smile back as other students begin to file in. Jorraan of all people comes in first. After another minute Claitan enters, followed by Ria. There’s a total of five students in this class including yourself.

“Good morning, students,” Master Rava says, “It is good to see you! Welcome to Advanced Force Techniques, where we will begin to decipher the mystery of the Force and teach you to be a conduit for its will and power. Your first lesson will be in control.”

Master Rava takes off the outer coat of her robes and does a handstand, taking away one hand. The rocks throughout the room lift into the air and begin to rotate around the room like some type of solar system. This goes on for a minute before they land back on the ground.

“You may have noticed that the rocks landed in the exact same place they were put in to start. This is what I hope each of you will accomplish at the end of this day.”
