L O S T
Nothing compares to the loss of a son or a daughter. The thought that you have outlived the product of your love to another, the most simplest and innocent of forms. It can haunt a parent to the ends of the Galaxy, drive them to do unimaginable things, but it is worse yet when that parent can touch the Force. When that parent can feel their child's presence dwindle into the Force like a lost soul until it becomes nothing, yet at once everything.
She had been sleeping when she felt the sharp tug of the Force, a sensation which was reminiscent of a rope snapping suddenly. Startled, Asha was moved from her bed in an instant and was sent staggering across the tiny room of her ships sleeping quarters. Tears streamed down her cheeks, yet all the same she was not aware that she was actually crying. Instead she gasped for air, and found that there was none left in the Galaxy to be had. It left her feeling suffocated, isolated, desperate.
Falling to her knees, the former Jedi shook as she felt the Force quake with her loss. Unsecured items flew across the room, her control over the Force slipping despite her so-called Mastery over it. Finally a sob escaped her also, and she gave into the bittersweet embrace of discomforted tears. Cassus, her child, she had mourned for him each and every day. She saw him whenever she looked upon Kobe, his unresembling twin, believing that one day the brothers would be united.
But it was not to be.
The continued tremors in the Force, caused by the shortening of a life, seemed to goad the Epicanthix into action. She did not know where she would be led, but she knew that in following it she would meet the source of her despair.
And Force condemn her if she did not find from it her vengeance.
For restless days the woman travelled, not sleeping, never leaving the cockpit of her vessel, as she made her way to Panatha. And as they neared the destination, Asha felt certain she knew who she was being guided towards.
