The slow decent was intentional. A collection of 30 odd stones of various sizes was floating around the heavily armored woman. Hair bright red, nearing neon but shining brightly with the force letting it almost appear like a fire. Thick grey streaks showed that the person was getting on in age while the power that flowed through her was clearly making her full of life. Thick scarring was clear on her skin, her neck and left side of her face having many a scar and a particular one running across the dimmed and clearly blind left eye. Soft green energy flowed in the emerald eyes of the woman who breathed out with a soft determined focus. The rocks landed, each arranged neatly in a circle around her as the heavy metal armor she wore made a soft clinking noise when her breath finally escaped her.

There was a scala of different tools around her. Weapons she trained with, weights she lifted. Even a patch of frozen grass where she had meditated on one of her specialties, Cryomancy. The woman was well aware of the many people who felt that her training was too 'barbaric'. Working out in extremely heavy armor. Wielding a lightsaber that was many grams heavier then it needed to be. Fighting with hand to hand combat if she could instead of using blasters, and even settling for the use of force powers that were considered to be dark side of the force by some. She never believed in that, there was no such thing in her mind as inherit good or evil. Only intent and results. If you fought for what was right then there were things that needed to be done. Her master had taught her that, and she would never forget it. To many she was considered an oddity, but to herself they often were considered unprepared.

The eyes now slowly dimmed, as the natural emerald colored eye of the lady, next to the dimmed blind left one, started to gaze around her. Sweaty she stepped through the courtyard that was the place to train for those wishing to hone their skills in the Medjai. 7 Years of isolated training had done the woman little favors in terms of social skills perhaps, but her abilities had rose exponentially. She moved her body, as a soft whirring sound erupted from her prosthetic left leg and arm. A gentle step after gentle step took her to a bench just off to the side where a small bundle of food was waiting for her. A rare treat to herself, she had baked soft buns with sweet cream the evening before and was now excited to get to eat them with the feeling of fulfillment they would bring. A delight that was both sweet smelling and a delicacy she would never show others to be a guilty pleasure of hers. It was somehow a thing she felt most at home keeping to herself. Though those who knew her were already well aware of her oddities, a sizable collection of them there were.

As her steps finally reached the bench she decided to take the time to sit in peace. The metal bench under an exotic tree offering shade and a somewhat secluded respite from the busy courtyard. She had placed her bag against the cold stone of the resting place, a thick leathery thing that was function over form. She looked around and sighed, the amazonian build woman slowly raised her hands, taking off piece after piece of the heavy gear until she had taken off most of the upper body's armor. Resting in a tank-top that she had felt most comfortable with under her clothing. The black thing hiding her chest, but betraying her thick muscled form and the many scars that riddled her body. The metal arm clearly a design of her own as its connecting piece was of a rather primitive design. She sighed as the weight was finally off her shoulders, a good few more then an average Jedi's outfit's weight was now finally resting on the floor instead of her shoulders. She sat down, and opened the package of food, small decorated buns with a sweet smell appeared as the woman let the force go from her mind for a second, which returned her hair to the slightly less bright red and her face to betray once more that a few wrinkles had set in. Oddly making her amazonian build still feel almost motherly.

"I missed training with others around... but I have to admit bun's, you were missed more..."

Softly speaking to her food, unaware of the world around her. The woman seemed to almost unaware of how it would look to those around her.

Strike. Block. Parry. Counter-strike. Strike. Strike. Parry. Dodge. Magick. Strike. Force. Move. Block.

Dreidi kept going through the motions, keeping agile as she took the lessons she had from her Master and sister, Asaraa. Ensuring that she understood the Form, and making sure that Dreidi could switch fluidly between the Force and Magick. That was the priority for Dreidi since she was not going to be any good if she had to only focus on one style during a fight. She needed to demonstrate skills in both if she was ever going to survive fights. Dreidi had continued to train and practice several hours after Asaraa called the lesson. She was refusing to surrender now that she was on a roll. No, she needed to pushed herself to the limit and prove herself. Dreidi hadn't made any steps to improve her standing in the Ascendancy but at the moment, she felt she was still too weak to be noticed or taken seriously. Dreidi was desperate to get to the point where her skills were of value to her home and people she came to trust.

After a few more drills, she wiped the sweat from her forehead with a towel. Looking for her water bottle, Dreidi sighed, she was definitely gaining an athletic build from the hard training but she wasn't sure that she was building any muscles. Dreidi was still super skinny, she had been told that her father at her age was very skinny too but that was due to malnutrition and the harshness of being a slave, Dreidi just couldn't seem to really build muscle to have the imposing muscular figure that she had seen so many have. There were times that Asaraa worried that Dreidi was too thin, but she ate plenty, possibly too much for her size.

Shaking her water bottle, it was empty. Dreidi sighed, she needed to stay hydrated if she was going to continue training. Leaving her training room, she headed over to a water fountain to refill her bottle. There were plenty of people practising, training and some spars going on. Dreidi watched them idly as she refilled her bottle. It was good to see how others fought and trained, would help with inspirations or even assess strengths and weaknesses for when she needed to fight people using a similar style or mindset. Dreidi chewed on her bottom lip in deep thought, wondering what she could do to stand out more in the faction. She wasn't aiming to be raised up as the most promising Padawan the Ascendancy had, hells, she wasn't even trying to appear as the best Jedi in the faction. But she wanted people to recognise her, take an interest in her role in the Ascendancy. Desperate for approval, her therapist said it was unhealthy and stemmed from her parents not providing it, either due to her father dying or due to her mother vanishing from a young age. However, Dreidi couldn't help but want the approval and to know she was valued here.

Stopping on the way back to her room, she spotted a face she had not seen around the training rooms before and looked in. The appearance, it was familiar but Dreidi wasn't sure where. Then it hit her, Kristyl's master! Kristyl had been going on about her master for ages, her niece was so excited to be training and being active that there were a lot of days that Dreidi would hear full monologues of what Kristyl had gotten up to. Curious to see how this woman was in person, Dreidi stepped into the room and coughed slightly to alert the older woman to her presence.

"Hi, I am Dreidi Xeraic. Urm, you are the Master to my niece, Kristyl? Thought I would say hi." Dreidi offered a small wave, feeling a slight pang of awkwardness.
