Hope history will forget…

"He can park the freighter in orbit and a shuttle can go and fetch him," Corvus offered. The small hangar, carved into the side of the cliff was simply too small for a freighter to land. "Or you can borrow a small ship and collect him if you'd prefer?"

She smiled, she would do whatever it took to help the Twi'lek.

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

Hmmm hmmmm a shuttle to fetch him would be easier provides I go with"she said looking at the Jedi and shipping her tea lightly

[member="Corvus Raaf"]

 

[Corvus Raaf]

Corvus nodded her approval. "It is settled then. Is there anything else you need of me?" She sipped her own tea and checked the time - she had a lesson on Soresu to teach some Padawans shortly - but would not leave until stardust was fully satisfied.

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

She sat back and smiled"a yellow saber crystal....I need to change my red one out and I feel yellow will suit...however if you can't find any yellow one of your choice will suffice

[member="Corvus Raaf"]

 

[Corvus Raaf]

Corvus thought for a moment. "You may find what you're looking for on Ilum of course. Or even Rhen Var. But...I am aware of the story of Jaden Korr. He had a red crystal and meditated on the Force. This purified the crystal until it had a yellow blade. Given your situation, this might be a particularly apt alternative? What do you think?"

[member="stardust"]

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

She thought for a moment considering the three options, leaving the planet could put her at risk for the voice to grow and strike again, however meditating and fighting the voice would probably kill two in one go"if you can get me a quiet place to meditate I'll go with that option

[member="Corvus Raaf"]

 

[Corvus Raaf]

Corvus smiled. "There is a place here. The Meditation Pavillion. It's in the gardnes. It was Grand Master Skywalker's favourite spot. And mine too. Go there and once there is truth between your heart and the Force, I suspect you'll see a change in that crystal of yours."

[member="stardust"]

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

She nodded and smiled at her"can you lead me there please? Rather not go walking off not knowing where I am going
[member="Corvus Raaf"]

 

[Corvus Raaf]

Corvus nodded. "Of course."

She led stardust out of the Academy, through the stone corridors until they reached the front steps. From here they went into the gardens until, after a short walk they saw the Pavilion.

Corvus walked into it with satrdust. "Here you go. It's designed specifically for meditation, so I'll leave you here. I'm sure you'll find success...may the Force be with you."

[member="stardust"]

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

She got up and followed behind [member="Corvus Raaf"] looking at the stone corridor in awe and stepping down the steps until they reached the pavilion "thank you Corvus im sure I'll be successful.... Though I can sense a fight ahead of me.." She didn't know what type of fight but she could feel it, she went to the middle and took both sabers out setting down with them in front

She closed her eyes and felt the force surround her and pull her, the life force around her of the plants she could feel.

After a minute she could feel darkness coming and what looked like herself? No it wasn't her rather the manifestation of the evil of her"so you finally come out from the castle?"the evil spoke in a thin raspy voice

A queen can only stay inside and hear the war before needing to join"she herself said looking at her evil self as she remained calm

Hardly a queen but a prisoner in her own castle "it spit

I've grown tired" she stood up within her mind"I'm tired of having you in my head....time to leave

Leave? LEAVE! Hahahahhhaha sorry but I've grown a lot to this place "the evil one grinned evily at her

Then I have no choice then to force you out" she clenched her fist and assumed position a offensive position

You wish to fight"the evil one assumed the same position

It'll be hardly a fight"she charged at her and started throwing punches and kicks both was in a ball of kivks and punches before both landed a strike causing both to fly back and land before running at each other again before stardust finally landed a blow and started a fury of punches and kicks on the evil one before throwing it down panting"give up"she walked over and held a hand out"this could go on forever but I won't allow it"the evil one bowed her head and reached up and grabbed her hand, a blinding light quickly flashed before stardust opened her eyes panting and grabbing her head"ahhhhh pooodooo

 

[Corvus Raaf]

Meditation was invariably something personal and Corvus chose to ensure this was the case with stardust.

Once she was aware the aspiring Jedi was beginning to pull the Force to her, Corvus gave her privacy. In truth the meditation could last hours and Corvus was keen to ensure stardust was able to deal with whatever she needed to deal with without interruption.

Some time later, she heard the Knight call out and so Corvus moved closer. She remained quiet. If stardust wanted to talk, Corvus would gladly listen.

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

The entire process took about two and a half hours to finish, at the end she was hunched over with the headache the size of corusaunt

She felt [member="Corvus Raaf"] come near and held a hand up for a minute before lowering it and waving her over

She was drenched in sweat and looked like multiple bruises on her face*ugghhhh my head hurts

 

[Corvus Raaf]

Corvus moved swiftly but quietly over to stardust's side.

She genlty lay a hand on the Knight's head. Pulling the Force to her, she pushed it through her body. White light coalesced around her hand and then entered the Twilek's head. It was nothing more than Force Healing. A gentle push of the Light-side of the Force, aiming to alleviate the pain of the headache.

Of course there was the natural desire to ask questions, but Corvus held back. "This should help," she said, her voice low and calm. "At least the headache should subside."

[member="stardust"]

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

She sighed feeling the head ache subside and go away though the bruises still lightly hurt

Thank you Corvus, gods that was a long battle how long have I been meditating"she said looking up at [member="Corvus Raaf"]

 

[Corvus Raaf]

"Two, maybe three hours? A such times, you're best left alone to deal with whatever it is that is troubling you. Sometimes the result is apparent after one meditation, other times it is possible to need a few sessions. Only time will tell...when you turn your saber on."

[member="stardust"]

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

She picked her saber up and looked at it unsure if it actually worked"well here's to hoping

She turned hr saber on to be greeted with a bright yellow flash and then the hum of a saber"well I'll be a bantha it actually worked

[member="Corvus Raaf"]

 

[Corvus Raaf]

Corvus smiled. "There was never a guarantee, so I'm glad it worked for you. Whatever you went through in that meditation was, I guess, worth it. And it's a strong indicator you're turning to the Light Side."

[member="stardust"]

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

She twirled the blade and nodded shutting it off "well worth it but I know this is only the beginning of it all*she said to [member="Corvus Raaf"] with a smile
