Carry on my Wayward... (Iella)

Nico was reaching out now and sesned it, could feel it while she wondered what her master had planned. This.. this flow walking was a dangerous gambit. At least in most cases, seeing the past and the the chance as some sad being able to change it or just observe was a power the aing-tii closely guarded. Hell it was something she didn't even think would be taught to people because of its chances for abuse but right now as her minds eye opened to look t the spectre's she gave a nod. "What are.... Who are they master?"

That I can't answer Nico, who do you think they are?

Iella suspected they are beings from long ago, Voss Seers possibly but she too is full of uncertainty. The ghostly figures did not move, like statues they are, but only visible to them is the movement of their mouths as if canting. No sound is heard by Iella or Nico, only a strong sense of the force pulsing through the air. Even Iella was not clear if this energy came from them or this place.

We will not disturb them long Nico, and will move on.

They remained a short time more, before Iella rose off the ground and indicated for Nico to do the same. She proceeded to pass by the figures not even glancing as she did so. And began walked down the Old Path once more.

Nico continued to watch and focus on the energies around her, on her master and keeping her within the area while she rose up to follow. She kept watching the Voss mystics and taking in their unmoving bodies but the voiceless chanting was kind of creepy..... At least she had seen worse things at time but still creepy enough before moving forward and towards the old path with her master. Her hands going to her hair and pulling it back tightly but without the band to put it back itno a ponytail.

As Iella and Nico continued down the Old Path, twisting and winding along the track. The vegetation began to change, a more softer gently form of plant life and pleasing to the eye. She could smell the scent of budding flowers, strong and inviting to the native insect life, who buzzed happily from flower to flower.

"The past is a good things Nico, it informs us. We should be able to learn from history, those that have the cleverness to do so. A Jedi should look to the past in order to progress through to the future. And.... Change". There is a hint in Iella's final word and as she turned to look at Nico now she watched her for a moment. Taking in her every feature.

"Do you think the past should be hidden away? like something to be held back and kept within one soul?", she asked. Iella had suspected something of this girl for a little while now. In truth it did not matter to Iella, nor should it to anyone else, but Iella was concerned that this secret of Nico would consumed her or maybe fight against her one day. However if Nico did not wish to disclosure her secret Iella would respect it but keep a vigil eye on her Padawan.

Nico looked at her master now, the few things she kept to herself mainly about well her past was because not many people understood or some met it with outright dislike. Nico looked at her master and her hand came to the back of her neck as she rubbed it and chewed her lower lip nervously. "ahhh sometimes but the past isn't always something you want to dig up. Not many people like what they might be seeing."

Nico kept looking at her and motioned with her head to the side as she nervously smiled. "So you know my family a little but ever wonder why most are females? Because they are children of Emberlene where it is predominantly females in charge. Low birth rates and populations after incidents centuries long ago. So males are usually sent off world somewhere they won't be risked getting killed."

"One of those places they sent me was Dantooine and then the sith came. I was working as a small scale bounty hunter sending credits home and the sith found me, captured me and trained me in the darkside. I was miserable but mostly with myself and I turned to spice and other things. When Matsu found me on Nar Shadda she was a jedi master then and her family she wanted to make sure was safe... She took me home."

"Or the next best thing, the jedi were okay but not really a home. So much infighting and watching wars come, I offered my blades on Dac when I could while going through well this and we see the results. I am happier now at least and with your help I did find a home, a family even if only surrogate who don't judge because they didn't know who I used to be."
