So Niman was to be her calling then, eh? In this matter, she would trust her matter implicitly - he knew far more of Lightsaber combat than she did, and would likely be able to tell what was best given what she'd shown. The idea of not needing to memorize several different stances and parries...
Telarii's blade went far to the side, easily swatted away by the far more experienced Knight's weapon. Not too shocking really, her attack probably wasn't accurate enough to hit anything, though once she had finally recovered, she brought her own weapon back in front of her, trying to mimic her...
She hadn't known that bit of disturbing history about the temple. It didn't even seem possible; how could some group sack a Jedi temple? Where dozens, even hundreds of Jedi lived and trained? It would require an immense amount of troops, or at least, so the young twi'lek thought. Jedi were...
The moment of initial surprise from being suddenly attacked passed, and with it so did her momentary anger. Still, she wasn't at all impressed by Owyn's method of teaching this lesson, even if she understood the importance of it. She knew that one couldn't always choose when and where a fight...
Owyn was indeed correct in his assumptions of Telarii's defenselessness at this point in time; her focus was directed inward, at the self, not outward. It took all of her meager concentration to maintain her breath control practice, she had none to spare on the world around her. Just as her...
OOC: No problem. ^_^ I hope you had fun!
IC: So, the small amount of time she'd actually been able to sustain herself without breathing was actually impressive for a first time? That made her feel a little better. Still, it was not an exercise she was eager to repeat...though Owyn did give an...
Again, a compliment on her progress and again, the young twi'lek beamed with pride in her ability to grasp the basic techniques that were being taught to her. While the powers she was learning to use were nothing amazing to most Jedi, to Telarii, the mere fact that she was learning to make use...
The twi'lek listened attentively to her master, quite eager to learn the secrets to the Control group of force powers - beyond what she already knew, that was. The first part, Owyn led her to believe, was complete and total knowledge of one's self. That didn't seem too surprising too her, and...
Telarii had never heard of many of those applications of the Force. Were such things really possible? Healing, as Owyn had mentioned, she'd heard of before and wished to learn at some point... But a Jedi could truly place themselves in suspended animation? Such self control that must require...
The twi'lek felt as if she would nearly burst at the seams if she swelled from any more pride - but how could she help it? She was a quick study, it was true, and basics were easy to grasp.. But simply getting compliment on her quick study was doing great things for the padawan's self esteem...
(OOC: No problem, I figured that was the case. I just didn't want to overload your PM box. :P)
Despite the early hour of the day, the temple was bustling with activity, hopefuls wandering the halls between lessons, masters and padawans speaking quietly side by side, others taking care of the...
