Ideon Taldrel does not remember his life prior to Vero Shif's intervention.
From what he's been told, he was found aboard a mostly destroyed starship in the middle of the Outer Rim by the Je'daii Ranger around the age of 8. Nobody else on the ship was alive, and in fact Vero had believed him to be dead also at first. It wasn't until he'd finished doing an assessment of the vessel and its passengers that the boy finally moved and showed signs of life.
He had no name back then, that was given to him by Vero. He had no home, Vero gave him that too. No memories... And yet despite his lack of memories, the boy seemed to be angry. Very angry. All the time. Perhaps it was amplified by his inability to remember why he was frustrated, but that first year was one of great strife for the trio of Je'daii. Vero did not wish to give up on the boy, and yet with each passing day he grew closer to succumbing to darkness.
Then Rhia took over for a time. The boy up until this point had barely said a word, and though he'd continue to remain near-mute even afterward with the girl's patient care he began to let go of that anger. From there his training truly began. He learned from both Vero and Rhia, but for very different things. Vero taught him how to be a Je'daii, how to harness the Force, and fight with a blade, while Rhia taught him how to center himself, how to control his wild emotions.
And with time he moved past it. He forgot that he'd ever forgotten anything at all. He traveled with the pair, seeing so many different worlds in the process, and began to show an affinity toward the various fauna found therein. Small frogs he'd try and smuggle aboard their ship, much to Varo's disapproval - frogs belong in the wild, Ideon, not on in space - or seemingly feral felines who softened around him.
Though he wasn't particularly good at communicating with people, through these creatures he truly began to shine.
Varo was something of a stickler for tradition, and though he taught them how to wield firearms, it was most definitely the blade he pushed them to learn the most, not lightsabers but true blades. He did not push them toward the creation of an imbued blade, believing that to be best saved for their eventual trials, but in its stead he gave them mundane blades, and vibroblades, something which held the same weight and form to prepare them for their futures.
Ideon threw himself into the more physical aspects of his training; he was agile and balanced, quick on his feet with the elegance of a dancer. Melee came naturally to him, where it hadn't Rhia, and soon enough he was surpassing even her when it came time for them to spar. It proved to be a very good outlet for any residual emotional control issues he had, and his time in the sparring ring proved more beneficial to him than meditation alone previously had.
Even so, Varo monitored his progress carefully. He would ensure that the boy did not use it too much as a crutch, and would pull him from his spars if he showed signs of taking it too far. No child of his would fall to the allure of Bogan, and he firmly regarded both of his students as his own by this point. He'd raised them, he'd taught them, he'd kept them safe from the Galaxy and all that lay within it.
Then, one day, Rhia decided it was time for them all to leave their bubble; until now they'd been hiding away in the Outer Rim, moving between random and uninhabited planets where they could remain safe, where they could freely grow and train. But they couldn't progress much further by themselves. They needed to seek out the rest of their Order.
So they left their slice of heaven, in search of the Je'daii, and the events which took place next sent him spiraling back into a state of rage. |
