Zerath Eblon had grown up quickly in the last month- he had lost his lightsaber on Lothal, taught his first class, dueled a Sith on Coruscant, and had taken on a Padawan learner. He'd spent much of the return trip to Yavin IV reflecting on the past month, noting that he'd changed almost as quickly as his life had. He'd had his fair share of growing pains, some with consequences that reached far beyond his own learning experience; he'd failed on Lothal, and now its peoples suffered under the boots of the Mandalorian Death Watch. The Sith he'd dueled on Coruscant was still at large. Most days, he felt like a poor teacher and mentor.
Yet, within those failures, he had found growth as well. Zerath was aware that he was tending to the Light of the Jedi Order in new ways; and now more than ever, he felt responsible for its direction and future. In the past month he'd been more intentional about interacting with initiates, Padawans, and Knights, doing his best to be present and approachable in the face of the ever-growing storms on the horizon; everyone needed a shoulder to lean on now and then.
That realization led him towards Grandmaster Voran's room not long after he'd landed, hoping that he'd arrived at an opportune time. Since taking on a larger role in the Jedi Order he'd noticed how much of a burden fell on the few leaders that were left, and he could only imagine the strain that the Grandmaster was under. She was the public face of the Jedi Order; its bastion, its defender, its figurehead, and guide. How long had it been since someone checked in on her?
