The doctor watched with some surprise, but approval as Galahad placed the sturdy Brylark staff next to the pedestal. Of course, the former Temple Guard would find some other means to support his weak leg — but he was correct that it would be impossible to use it and remain inconspicuous from...
As Austin began the long and tedious process of imbuing his knowledge and information into the memory crystals, he was vaguely aware of his fellow Master taking the lightsaber parts and kyber crystals from the crates, placing them in their homes along the archive walls. Turning his thoughts back...
It was not long before Galahad reached the top of the stairs behind Austin, and the doctor looked upon his friend apologetically. Truth be told, the former Temple Guard handled living with his injury so well that more often than not Austin completely forgot about it. Now was one of these times...
Quite enjoying the temperate world of Ifrane despite the fierce predators they previously faced, Austin was incredibly pleased to be returning to the planet and helping members of the Order settle into their new homes and lives. As they entered the atmosphere and soared in the Azarael towards...
Nodding in agreement with Galahad, the doctor managed to tear his eyes away from the magnificent sight of the central chamber to continue through one of the passageways leading deeper into Felwinter Peak. Austin knew his friend well, and upon sensing the hint of sadness that Galahad felt he...
As Galahad turned to look back down at the Azarael landed upon the mountainside, Austin did the same. It was strange to see the medical craft, essentially an empty vessel now that the equipment had all been moved inside the sanctuary that the two Jedi Masters were about to enter. There were a...
At first, with his eyes closed shut, he could feel naught but the life force of the other Jedi around him. Then, Lucian began drawing upon their strength, calling forth power that no single Jedi could ever hope to wield singlehandedly. Expertly crafting two detailed statues that looked inward...
The doctor nodded solemnly in accordance to Galahad's words. In all his years, Austin had never heard of a Jedi surrendering to the Sith Empire — they always fought to the death against those corrupted users of the Force. Against such insurmountable odds though, Wyck was wise in decreeing that...
Continuing onward, the two Jedi Masters stayed silent as they beheld the beauty of the caves and searched for more Kyber crystals suitable for lightsabers. Turning a corner in the cave network not too far ahead, the wondrous glow being reflected off of the fully intact crystals met Austin's...
It must have been the presence of the chittering swarms of Orbalisks near the entrance and perhaps the Zakkeg taking up residence nearby that deterred anything else from entering the cave. While the jungles outside were quite clearly infested with all manner of dangerous predators, this was a...
They had tread through the predator-filled jungles of Dxun and had arrived unscathed — only now, as Austin viewed the dark entrance to the cave before the Jedi, he realized that perhaps the worst of their journey did not lie behind. Looking deep into the cave, revulsion washed over the Jedi...
Out of the corner of his eye, Austin noted that Galahad marked the path they had taken in the fork of the caves. It occurred to the doctor that doing so was an incredibly wise thing to do — he had heard many stories in his time on Jedha of younglings getting lost and only finding their way out...
A chuckle escaped the mouth of the doctor at Galahad's comment. "Not we, perhaps. I hope others do," he replied, moving forward to help lift the crates of lightsaber parts. However, Austin's assistance was unnecessary as his fellow Jedi Master was more than capable of moving the full, heavy...
Having swiftly dealt with the devourer that assaulted him, Austin whirled around to survey the others. He turned in time to watch the Arkanian Dragon's ferocious display of savagery against the green creature that dared threaten its "parent". Visibly impressed, the doctor gave Galahad a smile...

Though having a ship this time upon returning to the little settlement on Chalacta, unfortunately the Jedi's journey to their destination was not made any easier. The village was nestled in the middle of a mountain pass, making aerial travel to it dangerous if not impossible. Masters...

The view was nothing short of beautiful.
It had been years since Masters Austin and Galahad visited this small village on Dantooine, though the sunsets certainly had not changed in the least. With the last light of the sun escaping over the hills of the settlement, the sky turned fiery...
Looking down at the tome strapped to his side, Austin smiled as he unlatched it and flipped through the pages nostalgically. He had indeed finished it, but its blank pages were not completely filled. "I did finish what he wished to teach, but there is still more that could be written for others...
Having finished glancing briefly over their plans, Austin shut off the datapad and decided to leave it behind on the ship. He had no need of it in the temple-station of Brighthome. "They are indeed," he replied solemnly to Galahad. "Though we find ourselves in need of both." Following the former...
Upon arriving at the Holy City, a wave of nostalgia rushed through Austin as he beheld the dusty red landscape of rocks and plateaus. He had not returned here for many years — not since the temple was destroyed and the doctor had tended to the survivors with Master Halan on Vrogas Vas. While...
A smile broke onto Austin's face at Lucian's comment to Galahad. At least they were able to have some humour instead of being all doom and gloom in such a dangerous situation. Although Ralaa voiced her hopes, it seemed they were for naught as several monstrous green beasts with strange sharp...
