The ambient on the mind of Quai was, at least, bizarre. Knowledge and strange things mixed on his mind into a sort of summary that deleted all the trails of his past. He could not believe the training that he received in such one month or two, and it was an special way of learning based on holocrons and datapads borrowed from the old Tython archives.

However he could not handle of all the things and he was very remote of the possibility of making a compendium. He felt sick, his mind was not clear, his spirit started to put away all the energy that he could take from the Jedi. And he didn't saw a solution, no an nearby one.

He raised his eyes, positioning his vision on a statue of the Temple. Around the statue was an important air, a feeling of perseverance, but Quai didn't felt anything on that moment for that statue. In every other time he was not able to take his sight away from the monument but now he didn't was Quai, he didn't was the little green bodied, he didn't was nothing.

He didn't had an identity. Where was his identity? He didn't knew. His cold hands extended, trying to give an touch to the floor.

Della had a special talent for accidentally offending alien species. She was still learning the customs and traditions of many races that looked nothing like humans, and she was struggling with the most important rule: Don't Stare.

She was doing that right now. There was a small green man in front of her and Della was not sure how to approach him. She hoped it spoke Basic, because she was going to dread the idea of learning a third language. Not to mention that Della was certain she never read about these small green men in her studies. She was going to have to greet him in complete ignorance of his language and culture.

"Um, Hello. How do you do?" Della recalled her very polite form of Basic from her early books.

Quai stared at the statue for a last time. It was time to take rid of his problems and face them as the Jedi that he was. He tried to stand up very slowly, trying to touch the ground with his legs. It was almost and titanic duty because his height was of less than a meter, contrasting with the more than one meter of the bench. But he heared one voice, a female one.

"Greetings, young girl." He spoke, looking to the girl. It was with difference a lot taller than Quai, but her eyes looked missing in an spiral of confusion, like if the little girl did not knew how to talk with others "Quai'El my name is, and a padawan of the Jedi I am." He said after some seconds thinking, with his weird type of conversation. Probably it was his most representative ability. "Curious, I am curious, your name what is? Hmmmmmm." He finished.

Della felt confused by the speech pattern. It seemed backwards, but that wasn't the best way to describe it. Della was able to understand most of the important biys. His name was Quai, he was a padawan and he was friendly. Della felt a little better about approaching the strange-looking creature.

"I am Della Frey. I am also a padawan. I haven't been here for very long. How about you?" she asked.

Her name was Della, and she looked inoffensive. She was now approaching to the old Jedi, but he didn't took care of that. In fact he liked how someone wanted to talk with him, with an old and unusual green little bodied man. He was curious about the life and who was Della, as he was interested in discovering new information about all the things that were around him. He could do a lore some day, who knew.

"A pleasure, meeting you is. New on this planet, certainly I am." He answered. "But learning fast I am. Heh heh heh." He did as a comment. His intensive training based on the lightsaber combat was a really good method of acquiring knowledge very fast. "Interested in learning something are you?" Quai finally asked. He could share data with the girl or he could just have an normal conversation. He only needed to continue socializing.

Della wasn't sure how to respond to Quai's question. Her situation was a complicated one. She did not always want to be here. It was purely by accident that she was even on Tython. She had to learn out of desperation to get home, now she was bound by responsibility to remain and learn of the Force.

"I suppose you could say that. There are many things you can say about me. I know my duty is to learn of Ashla, but I do not know what my greater purpose is. Why I have been selected out of so many to take on this burden." she sighed.

"and there is much that this strange Galaxy has already asked of me."

Della talked with her hearth, Quai felt that with only hearing the wise words of the young Jedi. However she also talked confused, and that was a way, an very important one, to fall to the Dark Side. He knew it, he knew it very good.

"To ask the Force the why of the things impossible is. Choose our destiny we can not do. The job of the Force is that." He talked, trying to clear the mind of Della. He had one hundred of years, he had a lot of knowledge, he was alone almost all those years trying to clear his mind from the imminent dark side that chased him. "Confused you are, yes, I can feel it. Help you, I can, just ask." He finalized.

"That is very generous of you. It seems to be the main idea about the Force. That it is a being of itself, and yet it is of us. It controls us and yet we use it to our will. It seems a bit contradictory." Della said.

Quai smiled. Della had a view of the Force that was special, to have a name for that.

"Not an self living being the Force is, the Force is all that is around us. In the air, in the ground, an energy field that creates all, it binds the Galaxy. It flows through us." Quai answered, taking a break to choose the best words to clear the mind of Della. "Controlling the Force is impossible, young Della. We can manifestate it, although. Our destiny the Force chooses. Through the best path it guides us, but if you have a view, a dark view, of the Force you will be trying to control the incontrolable. To that, never fall. Never." He finalized. He didn't knew if Della was able to understand, but it was his best effort.

"I am afraid I do not understand you. What mean energy field?" Della asked. She found it hard to understand what the green man was saying, but it wasn't because of the way he spoke. It was the way he seemed to contradict himself. He claimed that the Force was not a living being and yet it seemed to act in the way a sentient might. Perhaps some jargon needed to be cleared up.

Quai had a problem with the girl. Did she know about the Living Force or any other theory? Of course that she didn't, so he had to explain to the girl all those theorys, but first he needed to know about what the girl was interested in.

"Of course, I think what the problem is." He spoke "About the living force you know? Or the Unifying one? A lot of theorys and beliefs about the Force are, but first, what are you interested in?" He did wanted to help, but the knowledge of the girl was barely nothing.

"The way I have understood this Force business, it's been trial and error effort. I simply connect to it, and it acts through me. I suppose this is related to the way I grew up. Where I am from, it was called The Divine Luck and it granted us our ability to survive.But the Force isn't Luck. I understand that much. I also understand that there are those who hurt with the Force and those who heal. That is what I understand with certainty. Everything else seems...odd to me. I want to understand exactly what the Force is, but everyone seems to have different opinions." Della replied. She began to sense that she might be troubling Quai. It was not her intention, and she hoped that she could bring relief to the strange man.

"The living Force is my view of the Force. Now you will learn what have I learned through my century of life. In almost all the living things the Force flows, the theory says. It surrounds and penetrates them. Trust all the things to your instincts, focusing in the present. " Quai spoke "Mindful, you have to be to don't fall in Dark temptations. Live the moment, caring about the future not. The Living Force is that, only that." He finalized. He was a kinda of confused, but his purpose was the comprehension of Della.

"Ah, that makes a lot of sense. I suppose I am used to calling it by another name. Please excuse my ignorance, many of my habits from my people are hard to break." she flashed Quai a smile. It betrayed her self-awareness of her ignorance. She felt so stupid at times, especially around those more wise than her.
