Ask Tython The Rising

[Yvain]

Yvain continued to rub his chin as the Slussi explained some of what had transpired within his mind. It seemed that the young one already had a storied past one that the Jedi should have explored further before attempting to have him connect with The Force. The little Jedi contemplated for a moment before catching the untold story from the Padawan, it was perhaps the reasoning for his loss of control.

"Come now young one, do not hide anything from me. To hide is to admit fear and fear is a path to the Dark Side." It was probably a lot more difficult for the Slussi than just that but he needed to make it simple otherwise Sace may never fully control The Force.

[Sace Vsil]

Sace didnt know what to expect, though he knew he wasnt going to get off that easy.. He was dealing with a very wise and old Jedi, one that had heard every story one would come up with. In fact it was entirely possible that this very Jedi had known or come across Sace's distant relative and possibly even shed light on his history.

"Honessstly, I want to know more about my great uncle.. I want to know what he was and why he made my father resent him and the Order. I know it has sssomething to do with my grand father, but I want to know why." Sace thought about it more in depth. Why he had lost himself in his own mind and why he kept dwelling on his family, specifically his father.

"And in truth, the way I left off with my family couldnt be more unfit for my character. I left off being conssumed by the Force much like I had jussst now. And to be honesst...I dont know if I even left him alive. Only my mom was there to witnesss the incident and then me leaving off...I'm sssure she is worried about where I might be, but I was too concerned with finding answerss at the time than anything else." Sace didnt know if there was anything else to this. He never thought about how he left to become a Jedi until right now. Never thought of how his actions could have impacted more than just himself.

[Yvain]

Yvain rubbed his chin as the Slussi spoke, it was a troubling tale but not one uncommon within the young members of the New Jedi Order, many came from difficulty backgrounds, so Yvain would have to adept his training. "I understand, lack of insight can lead to frustration young Sace. But you must not let that frustration control you, there are always those around you who will listen and look to help. That is the Jedi way, if I am not there speak to one of the other Knights or Masters or even a fellow Padawan. To hold in this anger will only make it greater you must let go to become one with the Light."

Yvain put his hand down from his chin placing both on his crossed legs. "After we are done here we will head back to the Yavin and look to see if we can find anything about your Great Uncle. We will also contact your family to check in on both your father and mother and let them know you have become a Jedi. If he wishes to not speak to you do not resent him for it, we all have our on beliefs and opinions to understand that and to accept that another may not think like you, is another aspect of our Order you must embrace."

Taking a deep breath Yvain continued. "If you are happy with what I said we can go back to your training. But I want you to let go, do not think of anything apart from the here and now. You are a Jedi Sace Vsil, nothing more, nothing less."

[Sace Vsil]

Sace thought on Yvains words for a moment, the most worrisome being the act of calling his home. Though if this was the path to becoming a Jedi, than Sace would not let this get in the way. He must learn to let go of his past and focus on the future. More than obtaining knowledge of his ancestor, he wants to become a better Jedi and learn their ways to the fullest.

"Yesss...I underssstand. My passst I cannot change and I will focus on the future."

Sace spoke the words, but he did not know if he could truly abide by them. Though he understood that he had to try if he wanted to be the best Jedi he could be. He wanted to get back to his training, and in a way knew that this was just the beginning so that he may do just that. He had to become transparent, especially to his master, in order for his training to truly mean something.

[Yvain]

Though he felt trepidation in the young one, he did not press him. He had verbally agreed to move forward and that was all Yvain could ask for at this time. Nodding his head to signal the matter was done the Jedi Knight stood up and moved a little closer to the Slussi. "One more lesson for the day and I think we can call it done."

Turning to face the water's edge he looked down at a few small rocks ahead of him. Lifting his arm out he gripped it with The Force and pulled it up out of the sand. "Use what you learned whilst feeling The Force and reach for a stone, grasp it with The Force and lift. Once you can lift three at a time we can eat." It was a simple request though Sace may think otherwise, Yvain had seen first hand the power the Padawan had within him. He only needed to harness it correctly then this would be a breeze.

[Sace Vsil]

Yvain said the magic words just as Sace's stomach let our a quiet growl. Almost enough to silence his previous instruction...almost. Sace was tasked with lifting not one, but three stones at once using the Force. And especially after just losing consciousness to the Force entirely, the snake had his doubts. Though he would not give up. Returning to his meditative state on the grass, coiling his tail around his body and concentrating on the Force. This time his trance led his directly to the same feeling he had before...just before losing complete control.

Sace could see the strings flying all around every object and being that surrounded him. He felt as though he were a spectral being overseeing his physical form just overhead. He saw himself sitting still, facing the stones that were not far from him. Sace reached his hands out toward said stones. He felt as though he could reach out and touch the tendrils that rose, swaying in the nonexistent wind that the Force provided.

He chose a stone in particular and grabbed onto the tendril with the Force, his hand simultaneously making a fist. The stone wiggled slightly, though made no progression. Angst on the Sluissi's face grew as the stone flew into the air. Shock and excitement flew through Sace, though at that same time the stone dropped back down to the ground, clattering against the others.

Sace refocused. What felt like mere moments must have been an hour of training his mind onto the same stones. This time focusing on three stones in particular. His face motionless, aside form his forked tongue, his mind a clear slate. Nothing but the stones.

This time he felt out with both of his hands, his fists clenched as soon as his mind could see tendrils of each stone at once. Reaching out he grasped all three at once. All three stones rose about three feet in the air and slowly moved towards the pair of Jedi. If Sace could sweat, a bead would be irritating his skin. Fortunately enough the heat generated by his own anguish only made him feel more comfortable in the breeze of this planet. Once the stones got to him, they dropped hard to the ground, indenting the grass and unearthing the ground beneath, for these stones were larger than the ones he had planned on even attempting. And with the fallen stones came a large exhale as the Sluissi opened his eyes to reveal the size of the stones he had just moved on his own. Unable to even form words, the stones amassed about a meter each. Sace looked over to his master...

[Yvain]

Yvain watched with eager anticipation, his body was a tightly coiled spring of energy as he was not willing to allow his Padawan to disappear as far as he did last time. Instead he would step in much earlier to make sure that nothing undue would come to the Padawan, the last thing he needed was for him to loose all control and Yvain have to knock him out or worse to get him back to the Slussi he was.

Time seemed to slow as the Padawan began to grasp the stones around him, at first he struggled but after a few moments he seemed to get the gist of what he truly needed to do. The Force flowed around Sace like a gentle river lending its power to the Jedi has he tried to manipulate the world around him. Sace had well, picked up bigger stones than Yvain had expected, the task was to not show power but to show control, that is why he had deemed three stones instead of one.

He watched as they came to a rest before the Padawan before he to opened his eyes to see his feet, with excitement in his face he turned to face Yvain. "Well done young Sace. I believe that means its time for you to cook us some food." He said with a wide tooth grin before making his way back to his little shack.
