"All in all," he said at last, leaning back in the booth, "I believe you. You've always done right by the Underground, and I can't fault you for a moment of weakness. Force knows there's been a few Jedi Grandmasters I wanted to slug upside the head too. Whether you did right by stealing the datacrons before the Sith could...well, that's not my place to judge. Now, here's the issue, and it's a big one. Because your Underground affiliation isn't known, so far as I'm aware -- though we do have a Council member in our ranks, Kian Karr -- there's not a lot I can do about the bounty they'll certainly put on you. If you're telling me the full truth, and I think you are, there's two suggestions, strong ones, that I have for you."
He tapped one of the datacrons. "Number one? Study these. I don't like the Dark Side, and I don't like what it does to the emotions and thoughts of people I need to be able to count on. I especially don't like that you slipped to the Dark Side and took a swing at the Jedi Grandmaster. You and I've both seen Darksiders turn into rabid dogs. So study these, recognize where you went wrong, and fix it. I don't care what path you set for yourself, but whatever it is, your story tells me you know you need self-control to make that path something that strengthens you and makes you more reliable. When you're done with these, then give'em to me and I'll get them back into the Jedi system without making too many waves."
With finality, he pushed the datacrons back toward her.
"As Master of First Knowledge, entrusted with the holocrons of the Jedi Order by Grandmaster Kiskla Grayson, I'm giving these materials into your care for as long as you need them to grow as an adult. And the second strong suggestion I have for you is this. Go underground. Change your name, wear a mask. The Republic's Jedi don't forgive, and I think we have to be realistic about the consequences if you showed up at Raaf's door to try and explain yourself. I'm not judging your actions -- except for smacking the Grandmaster around; that was a doorknob move and we both know it -- but the fact of the matter is, assault and burglary are crimes in Republic space, regardless of your intentions. I'd steer well clear of that crowd and the Jedi Academies too, just in case. We've got enough Jedi in the Underground that we can find someone to quietly help you get a handle on yourself, at least until you're satisfied with where you're at. Fact of the matter is, I can't spare you, and I'm not enough of a hypocrite to turn you over anyway. But feth it, Raxis, you do need to get a handle on this. Fair?"
