Bethany Kismet
A Light In the Dark
A T R I S I A
The war was over.
At least, the obvious parts. The parts that historians would identify. But then, they would be missing something still to come.
Bethany picked over the ashes, her movements slow and careful. The fires had died down, the Force Storm that had brought her here existed as nothing more than hot winds and an oppressive sensation at the back of her skull. It would be weeks before the dead could be fully tallied, even longer before a true rebuilding could occur. In this time between, before destruction could turn into growth, there was a tense hush that settled upon the planet. Business unfinished, left to swing carelessly despite the sharp, broken edges of it.
Something waited. Damaged. Dangerous. She could feel the knife's edge against the Force, slicing in both directions, dark and light. It frayed and tore and wept.
The events just past weighed heavily on the landscape and on the Jedi Master as she passed through it. The planet and the Force Storm had called her here. And while she knew that in some ways, part of her duty was finished....
There was still something waiting for her in the ashes.
