The Jedi Temple on Ifrane stood as a testament to what the order meant. A monument set within a vast plain that stretched on for as far as the eye could see. It did not act as a means of dominating nature and all the land around it. But it was instead established in harmony with the land surrounding it, and in turn drew its connections as all did within the Force. In the early morning hours the light of Lewe was just stretching out over that vast plain. It's warmth came on the wind and cast the scenery in a brilliant hue.
In those early hours the young Echani padawan found himself outside in the plains to greet the dawn. The familiar tan robes and over tunic of most Jedi had been set aside, as was the curved hilt lightsaber he carried. This left Riyan only in his silver sleeveless under tunic and the loose fitting trousers for freedom of movement. The padawan's silver hair and alabaster skin almost seemed to hold a gentle sheen in the early morning light. Turning to face the rising sun Riyan let those silver hued eyes close, as his chest rose up with a deep breath. Centering himself the Echani youth's mind began to quell the idle thoughts that occupied him. Then opening his mouth he would release the held breath, and with it his body moved into the opening stance of the Echani Art. Another breath in and out passed as Riyan began to tap into the force that filled this planet so completely. In another breath the padawan began to move, his body falling into the rhythm that he had practiced all his life. These core motions making the foundation of the Echani martial art, and with each step, each movement Riyan would extend his senses beyond himself. In looking upon him it seemed almost a slow martial dance. The practiced steps, the steady breaths, carried Riyan's body in the early morning light. All the while his mind flowed through the force, touching on the connection of all within his radius. He could feel the wind sweep through the grasses towards him and adjusted his footing. The Echani moving to deliver and unhurried strike in the direction of the wind, and with it the force flowed from him in the opposite direction. Blades of grass rippling toward the gentle breeze, and in meeting the opposite push stilled.
"There is no emotion, there is peace" Riyan breathed out as he finished the gentle force push.
