Days later:

"Now Albedo," Katarn asked, while hitting several buttons on her datapad. "What can I teach you today?"

"I've been interested in Force lightning as of late," said Albedo.

"Ah," Katarn smiled. "Lightning."

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 did so, producing some sparks but managed to shock himself.

"You have to be careful of the feed back." Katarn explained. "Try aiming at that wall. Picture the bolt flying towards the wall uninterrupted."

Albedo concentrated and tried again. This time he managed to get the lightning to work without rebounding but it was no where as powerful as Katarn's.

"Good," Katarn smiled. "Remember even a small spark like that can stop a man's heart."

"True, but for it's full use if you don't want to kill someone, I'll need control if I only want to cause pain or unconsciousness."

"All you need is practice. Keep trying every day until you have it down pat." Katarn explained, smiling.

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.

"Good," Katarn nodded. "Now what would you like to learn next?"

"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."

"True, you have a point there," said Albedo, impressed.

((she is an assassin, so naturally she would want to kill someone without them knowing.))

"Now," Katarn smiled. "Is there something else you wanted to learn?"

"I've read that there's a technique that can extract information from a person's mind," said Albedo. "Do you know how to do that?"

"I'm afraid I do not." Katarn frowned. "Unless you mean force persuasion?"

"No, I was thinking of another technique, though I would be interested in learning Force Persuasion."
