Katarn pocketed her datapad and began to dance, lighting extending from her fingers in a cascade of beauty around her. She ended the dance by firing a blast of the stuff in the opposite direction of Albedo. "Its quite simple really. Simple charge the area around your hands with the force, then picture it igniting."
Albedo continued practicing. He also continued using the blindfold, which puzzled several other acolytes since he was still able to read. After a few days, he returned to Katarn to show his improvement.
"Force choke," answered Albedo. "Whenever I've tried it, I'm either too weak and they break free or it's too strong and I break the person's neck. I'd like to master it to the degree that I can inflict pain but without killing them if necessary."
"Well there is no real trick to it." Katarn shook her head. "After all its really just telekinesis used on the neck. Each neck is different, so its not rare that one would use too much or too little."
"True. Though I find Force Choke good in inflicting pain, I find it not very good when ending a person's life. Instead, I've been trying on using the Force to grab the target's heart and squeeze. A little will produce massive pain and a little more effort can allow for me to stop the heart from beating. Though there are a few species with more than one heart but that's generally not much of an issue."
"Personally I prefer to strengthen their heart, speeding up their heart rate until they go into shock and die." Katarn smiled. "Gives it the natural appearance of a heart attack."
