It had been a decade since he'd been on a more formal mission like this. Regardless, his faith in himself and those he'd be accompanied with was high and unyielding. This could both be good and bad, and he knew this very well. Still, he sat in a small chamber to meditate lightly while thinking of what they would be doing on the toxic planet of Haruun Kal. He knew about the Second Summertime War and that it was even more brutal than the one before almost a millenia ago. Knowing, also, about the bombing from the Galactic Empire had whipped out many of the Korunnai, this would indicate that they had survived and grew stronger against the flourishing Balawai.
But this was of little concern if the group couldn't handle descending the mountains enough to be any kind of effective in their investigations. This was why he was meeting with a Padawan in particular, a Roy R'yland who used to be a bounty hunter. He wanted to make sure the man was truly past his past and that he'd be effective in the group. He also wished to test his survival skills and wilderness training, since that is where they would be for the next few months. The planet was full of destructive fungi and fast-growing flora. The fauna were large and vicious, but also seemed just as trainable. However, whether they'd behave for these Jedi like they do the Korunnai would be something to be discovered.
The cube was dimly lit. Only Sebastian's silhouette could be seen. The light appeared to come from himself, if one could twist their mind to think in such a way. It could prove how attuned the Jedi was to the Light. It still could have been a trick of the eye, but it would be more fun for the observer to believe one capable of producing light himself. If this was true, it wouldn't, necessarily, be a sign of inner strength or peace. The Old Order was known for their stubbornness and resilience to make crucial decisions if it meant harm to any party involved. Sebastian did not lack either of these traits, but he was also finding some kind of balance between this ideal and the reality the galaxy was in at the present moment.
Peace flowed through the room. One might be compelled to collapse into awe if they were unprepared to experience such an emotion. However, his presence stretched far and any who approached the area from afar would easily become accustomed to the feeling of debilitating serenity. It seemed unlikely that someone as experienced as Sebastian would choose to take time to meditate on the future and prepare oneself so entirely. However, this same experience required this practice to be fully effective during the minior mission. The Unifying Force touched everything at any time, and tapping into this realm of knowledge was difficult and something Sebastian could not accomplish.
