Raison D'être (Albedo's Training)

[Dmitri]

During the couple weeks that Albedo had been at the Dark Jedi Temple, Albedo had discovered numerous secret passageways. Most had been discovered but there had been one that showed no sign of discovery in a long time. He nicknamed the place the Room of Light, due to the rays of light that illuminated the room due to the usage of mirrors and glass from a hole in the wall that brought in light from the outside. The room was also distinct due to that everything inside was completely white.
Albedo arrived at the Room of Light. He took out a holocron and began working on his studies.

Katarn waited for nearly an hour in the hall for her apprentice to appear. Her first apprentice, and he was late. She began to look for him. She had yet to meet this apprentice, so she could not look for him in the force. She ran into several acolytes, and some crusaders she had to appologize for assuming they were acolytes, but finally in an old dank passage she had found behind a tapestry, she found a man sitting in a room with light flooding in from all directions.

"Are you Acolyte Albedo?" she asked the figure.

 

[Dmitri]

"You are correct," replied Albedo politely. "I am Albedo Apeiron. Would you mind introducing yourself? I am most intrigued that another person found this magnificient room, let alone know who I might be."

 

[Keinushi]

"I'm Crusader Cabaoth," Katarn brushed some cobwebs she'd walked through off her pants. "And you were not an easy one to find. I've been looking for you for the last couple of hours. Our appointment for your training was 4 hours ago in the main hall."

((Room of Light... sounds familiar xD))

"My apologies," apologized Albedo. "I lost track of time."

OCC: From where, Sheep?

 

[Keinushi]

Katarn shook her head Lost track of time, what a silly excuse. "Very well, can we proceed with your training in the room I scheduled for today?"

 

[Dmitri]

"Certainly," replied Albedo. "May I ask where we're going?"
Katarn gave him an angry look. "Are you really that incompetent? You were told-"
"The fools who told me that I'd be meeting an instructor today failed to specify where. When I inquired with them on the location, they had no clue."

 

[Keinushi]

((just so you know, on this site we don't allow others to control our characters without prior consent, I'll let it slip this time, because I would have said something similar, but next time, please don't take control of Katarn.))

"The training area is just off the main hallway." Katarn sighed and explained. She indicated he should follow then headed for the main hall.

 

[Dmitri]

Albedo followed Katarn to the training area.
"Now what?" asked Albedo.

OCC: my bad

 

[Keinushi]

(( its cool, we used to do it all the time, but you can get demerits for it on this site. the admins do moniter the forums sometimes.))

Katarn sat down at a table in the center of the room. "I want you to tell me your history. Not all of it, just the bullet points. I also need to know your knowledge of the force so I know where to begin in your training."

 

[Dmitri]

"Understandable," said Albedo, agreeing with Katarn's methods. He was beginning to respect this woman more than the others in the enclave. Unlike most of the Dark Jedi, she was not impulsive and stubborn. "My name is Albedo Apeiron. I originate from Alderaan. My parents died in the same accident that gave me this scar," he said, touching the left side of his face. "It was around that time that I was introduced to this order. Unlike many foolish force sensitive imbeciles, I made sure to learn before coming here. I spent two years researching the history of this order along with the Jedi Order, I crudely practiced lightsaber forms, though I perfectly admit that they are not on the level of many of the people here, especially you." Albedo paused, calculating to see if Katarn considered his last comment a compliment or a just a simple analysis. He continued, "Weakness is actually the greatest weapon a person can wield. If they can defend themself to put into consideration their weakness, they are less likely to be defeated. I know perfectly well that my greatest weakness is my physically weakness. Thus, I rely more on my Force abilities. However, I also know that too much usage will drain your stamina, which I already am low on, so I make sure to practice in the radius of my ysalimir's bubble. Is there anything else?" Albedo grinned. While he made it seem like he was professing everything about himself, he made his comments generic, clouding facts. He had made sure not to talk about the extent of his training, his knowledge, or his weaknesses, as to avoid extortion from Katarn later on.

 

[Keinushi]

"You paractice near a yasalamiri?" Katarn raised an eyebrow in question. "But it is imposable to perform force powers near a yasalamiri. How do you know what your practicing is correct?"

 

[Dmitri]

"My apologies, I wasn't specific enough," said Albedo. "In order to practice with no Force powers, since Force sensitives sometimes unconsciously use their abilities, I practice the use of my lightsabers in the ysalimir's bubble."

 

[Keinushi]

"Ah, I see." Katarn nodded. "That makes more sense. Now what lightsaber form are you most proficient in, and which do you want to master?"

((crap, I'm talking like koenma from yuyuhakisho. I guess that what I get for rewatching it again ^_^))

 

[Dmitri]

"Niman, the Way of the Rancor, the 'jack-of-all-trades," answered Albedo.

OCC: koenma?

 

[Keinushi]

((he's the manager of heaven in yuyu hakisho))

"Good," Katarn nodded. "I actually know that one fluently. Have you decided on her blade style?"

Katarn herself had a whip on her right hip and a lightsaber on her left. The blade swayed whenever she walked, but the whip remained immovable as it was wrapped around her right upper leg, held in place by a magnetic clamp in her suit.

 

[Dmitri]

"Who?" asked Albedo, confused in the she Katarn was talking about.

 

[Keinushi]

((I was describing Katarns current garb, she just asked you about what style you wanted to learn.))

"What?" Katarn asked, confused by his response.

 

[Dmitri]

"You misspoke," informed Albedo. "As for me, I prefer dual lightsabers but I am proficient in blasters as well. No need to limit one's self due to ancient traditions."
