Ezra did his part to look surprised when the ‘boulder’ was hurling their way. In case his fellow judge didn’t do the same, he made sure to nudge her as well. They had to sell this for it to be impactful. The initiate’s approach, however, was a bit unexpected. Instead of using the least amount of stamina in an attempt to bat the boulder away, she chose a far more draining approach of slowing it down and tugging in the opposite force of the trajectory.
Ezra said nothing, but he did note a few things down on his datapad. Vani was officially completely depleted of her Force reserves as a culmination of all her prior Force uses and overexerting herself for the boulder. She would not have any Force to apply for any other trials left and would have to get creative on approach.
This was a very critical lesson to learn - it was one Ezra learned the hard way on the field. Learning it as an initiative during a trial was a luxury he was pleased to see offered to others.
