Lakay'la was right; something was off in the village. Zerath was used to being stared at because of his blindfold, and a trio of strangers in a small village were bound to attract plenty of attention, but there was no curiosity behind their glances; only intent. Frowning, Zerath wondered if the...

Zerath met Lakay'la's carefree laugh with a carefree smile; the Miralukan had to admit that perhaps the Order had done their homework, after all. He was certain that there would also be moments where he and the half-Twi'lek wouldn't see eye to eye, but the grace with which Lakay'la had adeptly...

After a mandatory debriefing at the behest of the Governor and her people, Zerath found that nearly an hour had passed by since the rescue of the captives; time that had allowed him to recoup some of his energy, as well as the ability to stand. The Miralukan still opted to sit, however, for his...

Zerath fully agreed that this was a problem worth investigating, but he also worried that this operation was far bigger than the small street gang that the two Jedi had stumbled upon. There were unquestionable risks involved with investigating further, and Zerath had to remind himself to have...

Zerath felt a strong sense of deja vu as he slowly regained consciousness and discovered his lightsaber missing, before remembering why. The Miralukan struggled to a seated position, feeling his connection to the Force flickering weakly as a result of his fatigue. He didn't even try to stand up...

A wan smile crossed Zerath's face, appreciating the humor in his Padawan's words despite the serious nature of their conversation; as well as her sentiment that he'd survived. "So am I" he responded after a moment. "I don't know if I believe in the saying, 'what doesn't kill you makes you...

Zerath let out a sigh of relief that he hadn't realized he'd been holding as the chems helped stabilize the two humans, at least for the moment. He carried a mix that was generally effective, but given the staggering number of individual spice strains in the galaxy, its success was no guarantee...

Feeling beads of sweat gathering under his blindfold, Zerath pressed on. He refused to allow fatigue to remind him how tired he was, because it didn't matter. Hailee simply had to win. One way or another, the contest would be decided in the next few seconds; Zerath even withdrew his focus from...

Too late, Zerath realized that his "wager" was being treated as literal and not the guess that it was. Whoops. The Miralukan quickly reminded himself that he'd have to be more careful with his words while he and Lakay'la build a rapport together, lest something he said offhand be taken at face...

The Jedi Knight couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration as Lakay'la spoke to Tepro. Rather than grow impatient with his reluctance, like some Padawans would, the half-Twi'lek showed great compassion, empathy, and wisdom. Zerath kept his face carefully neutral as he listened to Tepro speak...

Zerath was almost grateful for the distraction that the heat, humidity, and insects offered as he and Lakay'la trekked through the jungle towards the East. The Miralukan preferred any of those annoyances to the whirling storm of emotions clouding his mind, to the point that Lakay'la's question...

Zerath favored Lakay'la with a quick smile as she approached, grateful that she didn't seem to be seriously injured. A slight limp and a grimace here and there betrayed her pain, but nothing that couldn't be healed through the Force, which Zerath resolved to do as soon as possible. The young...

Lakay'la's gaze on him was even more uncomfortable than the oppressive humidity of Phindar. This was just their second mission together, if one even counted their get-to-know-you adventures on Ord Mantell- so they hadn't had much of a chance to talk about their respective pasts. Even if they...

Worry welled up in Zerath as he clocked Lakay'la running away from him with a Gungan hot on her head-tails Had he made a mistake in putting his new Padawan into such a dangerous situation? Zerath gathered the Force within him, preparing to reach out with the Force to impede the Gungan's pursuit...

The humid air of Phindar hit Zerath like a wave, and he could feel humidity gathering on his skin before he and Lakay'la had even reached the bottom of the shuttle's short ramp. The Jedi Knight tugged at the collar of his robes; glad that he'd opted for a more breathable fabric, but still...

Zerath Eblon tried to find comfort in the calming waves of the Force as the small transport he was on bucked and rattled its way through the turbulent atmosphere of Phindar; on its way to a small village that had requested Jedi help. There was a need to investigate whisperings of Joined in the...

As Hailee moved forward to engage the Weekway, Zerath tottered over to a nearby wall and slid down it; grunting slightly against the pain and making a mental note to focus on his abdominal section first next time since they were apparently used for a lot of motions. One of his wounds had...

The unmistakable hiss of a lightsaber and then a shoto igniting told Zerath that Lakay'la was traditionally armed, by Jedi standards. He'd worked with Jedi who wielded blasters or other weapons, but it appeared that his Padawan was most comfortable wielding two blades. Through his Force Sight...

A smile broke out on Zerath's face- his default setting, but no less genuine- as Lakay'la began exploring their busy surroundings through the Force. Her sense of perception was strong, and her joy was infectious. Not only that, but she was a fast learner; quickly adapting to the exercise that...

[Me too] Zerath shared Hailee's sentiment, pleasantly surprised that she'd agreed to let him accompany her on what he hoped to be the final stage of this mission. How many more guards were under payroll, and who had orchestrated the kidnappings... and why? One way or another, those questions...
