Galtea. Outer Rim Territories.
Caden Ansgar had spent a fortnight largely in the confines of his personal living space in the Hidden Forest on Galtea. He had used the time mostly to recover from his injuries; but he had also meditated often, something he could never have seen himself doing so frequently just a few months ago, but now engaged in more than ever. He found that he actually had time to reflect on his life thus far and even ponder what he'd been taught were universal truths - and decide for himself if they were. The war being waged across the stars was still at the forefront of his mind. He wanted nothing more than to be aiding in the effort against the Imperium, and he was beginning to become impatient. The more time he spent doing nothing at all is time that could be spent helping save the galaxy before there was nothing left to save. It was more than just a young man craving battle, or thrills, it was what he believed in. He also was beginning to feel the need to become stronger again; but only so he could help those who couldn't help themselves. Growing in power would only be act of selflessness, as the Jedi taught. He'd promised himself that. But despite this, he couldn't help but to become rather accustomed and even begin to enjoy his rather idyllic life on Galtea. It was relatively calm and had allowed for him to become more deeply attuned to the Force. Master Gwenelda's people never bothered him anymore either, having ceased stopping by once he had fully recovered. So he'd been left to his own devices, and he liked it.
Caden was currently sitting in the center of his small room with his legs crossed and his eyes closed. But his meditation session was coming to a close. There was a presence nearby. An unwanted presence. Caden stirred from his trance; slightly confused. But then his eyes snapped open and he unknowingly clenched his fists as he stood. Dusting off his Jedi robes as he rose to his full height, Caden glanced at his lightsaber, which lie on his sleeping mat, to ensure that it was nearby. He wasn't taking any chances this time around. He hadn't seen Nakoma or Fang in a while, nor any of the other Padawans. But there was one Padawan Caden had made a note of to never interact with again. Kai. He had attacked Caden and attempted to kill him just two weeks ago. He'd nearly succeeded. And now Caden could sense his presence drawing nearer and nearer. He didn't know what to expect, but he was prepared for the worst. He coughed to clear his throat and stepped forward and out of his tent; folding his arms as he did so. He looked about, seeing no sign of the other Padawan, but didn't step back in. He closed his eyes for just a moment and inhaled deeply to center himself. He wouldn't do anything rash or act out of anger. Or spite. If Kai was in fact near, he'd wait for him to reveal himself before he made a move of his own. Then he'd deal with the situation from there.
