“I sense something, a presence I've not felt since…”
― Darth Vader
SOMEWHERE IN THE JUNGLE ON AJAN KLOSS
Fiach sat alone – at least in the traditional sense. She was in a small clearing in the jungle, about a kilometre from the Jedi Temple, and was sitting cross-legged, with her eyes closed. She had been in that position for some time now. In many ways she found it taxing, to remain calm and serene and not to fall into a meditative state.
For she was here not to simply connect with the Force, but to continue her training.
As ever, she understood the theory. Those sensitive to the Force invariably relied on their ability to sense the world around them. A sense beyond the regular senses of sight, taste, hearing, touch, and smell. It was an ability that Fiach had been using for most of her life, but in an innate way. Now, she was learning how to use it proactively at worst and to understand when it was relevant at best.
Until now, she’d either acted instinctively to avoid danger, or sensed something was wrong, without appreciating the what. Which had proven somewhat frustrating.
And given her inability to understand, let alone register most emotion, she was hoping the Force could help her develop a form of empathy – to detect changes in a someone’s intentions, to determine lies from truths.
