Slow and steadfast like some vast, distended creature, The Will of the Force passed over the orbit of Tython.
There were lights under the hull. Green, grey, cold white and amber, globes of alien design, tracing the undersides of the great starship.
Stars prickled on a suspended distance. It came not only from the thousand bonds of illumination of the ship itself, but from corridors of horizon starlight that angled and contracted across the Deep Core.
From below, the ship was a massed silhouette against the slumbering globe of Tython. It was uniform, and sprawling, and hugely complex.
The Jedi Order's centre for battlemastery and combat.
Sorran Ven-Olar had been on the colossal ship for only a few days, and had only just begun to acclimatise to the microenvironment of the ship. Space had always been cold. He somewhat missed his surface dwelling on Tython, he missed the lingering sunlight of the summer season that had bloomed on the planet below. But his mandate had called for him to relocate to the The Will of the Force for an uncertain period of time, so that he could educate the ever expanding numbers of apprentices that had pledged their lives to the Jedi Order. Sorran's faculty was battle and combat. The sacred arts of the lightsaber. The Art of Movement, and even the unarmed and non-Force reliant battle crafts.
With the growing demands from the Jedi Council to improve and update resources in each and every speciality area, the Jedi Knight had been summoned to the great training ship to aid in the copious lectures that were to be given over the coming weeks. Sorran had also decided to take on a personal student, a Padawan whom he would mentor directly and privately when he was not giving lectures and combat training classes to the others.
The Jedi Knight opened his eyes after a moment of meditation in one of the ship's numerous sparring atriums and rose from the floor. He was expecting the arrival of his new Padawan at any time now, and had sent for him to meet him here. Life was going to be very busy in the coming weeks, but Sorran enjoyed the challenge.
