“I am ready to face the Trials.”
― Obi-Wan Kenobi
The Jedi Trials were a process that Padawans of the Jedi Order took in order to achieve the rank of Jedi Knight. During the trials, Padawans must go through nine steps of assessment, namely: teamwork, isolation, fear, anger, betrayal, focus, instinct, forgiveness, and protection. Once completed to the satisfaction of the Jedi Council, the Padawan can be considered a Jedi and achieves the rank of Knight. The Jedi trials were an integral tradition within the Jedi Order since its conception. Should the apprentice be unsuccessful in completing the trials, they were permitted to take them again until they passed.
Fiach, as any Padawan, had strengths and weaknesses. Patience was definitely one of her virtues and so she was in no rush to progress to become a Knight. In fact, she saw the timing as beyond her control as her master and the Jedi Council would determine when she was ready to progress. In many ways she wondered how structured the trials would be. It would be convenient to undertake a test, but she was aware that practical application was far more valuable than a short assessment. But then, she mused, being told you were about to be tested for teamwork would negate the validity of the trial surely? So perhaps, she wondered, she’d already undertaken some trials? Or would you be told afterwards that you’d passed?
Deciding this was way too much conjecture, she dismissed the thoughts and decided to simply continue to be the best Padawan she could be and if the trials presented themselves, she would take them in her stride.
