Talak knew that she was set on this path now, and it was his fault. He had introduced her to the darkness, and she wouldn't turn back from it. He considered saying something as she said she had to explore the darkness, but somehow he knew that she knew what she was doing. She had made her decision, and he couldn't stop that.
He let out a sigh and stood up as she reached for the lightsaber.
No, that one will do, he said as she asked about making her own. He held out his hand, and assuming she didn't stop him, he would float it toward his hand. It hovered in the air and began to break apart into its smaller elements until eventually the crystal at the center floated between them. The other pieces of electronics floated to the ground beside them and only the crystal floated in the center.
This is a kyber crystal. It's what helps fuel the blade, and this is what I was telling you is alive. It was attuned to the person who owned it before you, but they were a lightsider... probably a Jedi. You'll need to break the crystal, he said before realizing that "breaking" the crystal probably wasn't very clear.
It's called "bleeding" it, he continued. The name gave an idea of how unpleasant the process could be. You have to meditate over the crystal and pour the darkness into it until you break its spirit, he said, floating the crystal back toward her. It would take time, and he wasn't sure she was ready to do it yet anyway, but at least she now knew for when the time came. @Dread
