Ask Yavin IV The Journey Begins...

[Hailee Lightwood]

Yavin IV.
Hailee had already lost count of the days she had been away from Corellia. Her own home. Even though it had never felt like an actual home to her. This place however, the temple and all of its inhabitants, were already starting to feel more like an actual home to her. She had been welcomed rather warmly and most of the people here were actually quite friendly, just like Pêro said.

Over the past few days she had learned countless names, collected the first important pieces of information and she had met many people, fellow Padawan and other Knights both and time went by incredibly fast. She had learned a few things about the code of the Order, internalizing as many of their rules as possible already. She was eager to learn and even more motivated to get started for real.

Today was supposed to be her first day of training with her master. She had woken up early, even slightly before sunrise and instead of staying lazy, she had started her day with some physical training. Back on Corellia she had always ensured to keep up her workout routine to stay in shape, but here at the Order this was even more important than before. She had no idea what Pêro had planned for today but she felt somehow excited to find out about it soon.

She dressed herself with the light robes they had given here, regarding herself in the mirror for a few moments. It was impressive what clothes and a different mindset could achieve: She could barely even recognize the ambitious, genuinely happy official Padawam in front of the mirror. When she was all set, she sat back on the bed, patiently waiting for Pêro or rather forcing herself to remain patient. She had to admit that she would have rather just wandered off, continuing her exploration of the temple, but she knew that they had scheduled this first official training meeting and she didn't want to keep him waiting in any way.

[Pêro Erval]

Since he had joined the Order, Pêro had learned that waking up early in the morning was something good if you wanted to train. At this time of the day, there were few Jedi around the Temple, most were still sleeping, and the temperature was pleasant. There was nothing worse than training on a hot day, which was very common in a tropical moon like Yavin IV.

Due to that, Pêro chose this time of the day to train his Padawan, Hailee. After they arrived from Corellia some days ago, the G’weneen had asked the Council to officially become her Master. He had sympathized with her backstory and wanted to help her have a new life as part of the Jedi Order.

With their consent, the Knight had planned a training session with Hailee and the Temple Gardens. Pêro had arrived early, because he wanted to prepare some things before her arrival. Since they were probably going to miss breakfast, the G’weneen had stopped in the kitchens to grab something for them to eat.

While he waited for her arrival, Pêro decided to meditate. Next to him was a basket with food for their breakfast. The Knight could be with his eyes closed, but he was connected to the Force and was aware of what was happening around him.

 

[Hailee Lightwood]

When it was about time, she got up again and headed towards their agreed meeting point in the gardens. She felt excited, because she knew that she would experience something totally new. She would finally start her training and she could hardly await it with her natural rather impatient, fiery nature. She had held herself back over the past few days, knowing that the Jedi didn't fully tolerate exuberant, uncontrolled behavior, but right now she was literally so full of energy that she was walking quite fast.

She still wondered what Pêro, her now official master, had planned, but as soon as she set foot in the gardens, she tried to calm herself and soothe her impatience as much as possible, hoping that he would not have already sensed her unbound excitement. She knew her feelings seemed a bit immature and childish, but the thing was that back on Corellia, there had been literally nothing she had been looking forward to and so this kind of positive excitement was something she hadn't felt in an eternity.

She slowed down a bit, trying to relaxe and approach him rather respectfully. She knew that he had deliberately chosen to train her and she was still thankful for that. She was even more thankful that he had taken her off Corellia and she knew that she could never repay him in any way, so she tried to be the best version of an apprentice possible. "Good morning" she greeted him warmly, a soft smile on her lips as she stopped in front of him. Her gaze met his, but it soon shifted over to the food right next to him, before it wandered back to his dark, calm eyes.

@LouJoVi

 

[Pêro Erval]

Pêro felt Hailee's presence through the Force as soon as she arrived in the garden. The Knight opened his eyes and stared at her green ones. "Good morning, Padawan." he said, a small smile appearing on his lips. "I hope that you are prepared for your first day of training."

"However, before we start, we should have breakfast." he gestured for her to sit in front of him. Then, he would pick the basket and show what was inside it to Hailee. It was full of sandwiches made with fresh bread. "I baked it before coming here." he would pick one and wait for her to do the same. He took a bite and thought that even with him using her recipe, it never tasted like that of his mother.

“While I saw you use the Force in Corellia with some control, I decided that today we are going to start with an introduction to what it’s. Do you have any idea about what the Force is?” Pêro said, before eating some more of his sandwich. He would give some time for her to think about it and give an answer.

Then, he would continue talking. “The Force is an energy field created by all life and that connects everything in the Universe. Several cultures have different names for it.” he would explain, while making the sandwich on his hand float. “Some beings are born with the ability to use it, they are called Force sensitives. These beings, after proper training, can learn how to do wonderful things.” he saw a bush full of flower buds. Closing his eyes, the G’weneen stretched his hands toward it and focused the Force on them. All the buds would blossom, revealing several pink-colored flowers.

After doing it, he opened his eyes and turned back to his Padawan. “Before you are able to do it, I’m going to teach you about concentration. Meditation is a great ally of the Jedi to maintain dangerous feelings like hatred and fear under control. Tell me, have you ever meditated on your life?”

[Hailee Lightwood]

For Hailee, it was truly remarkable to see someone that calm, that balanced. Over the duration of her stay, she had already learned that for the Jedi, it was all about balance. The Knights she had already briefly met mostly seemed quite reserved and controlled. Something, she had yet to learn. "I am fully prepared" she replied still smiling, following his gesture and sitting down in front of him. It was true though. She was filled with positive excitement.

When he offered her the basket and explained that he had baked them, her eyes widened even further with excitement.
"You baked them yourself?" she asked hin disbelief, however more like a rhetorical question. He had told her about his mother and the bakery, so an affinity towards baking would not be unexpected, however, she valued the effort and the commitment behind getting up early and baking bread for breakfast. For the two of them.

The smell of fresh bread evoked a feeling she hadn't felt in a while. The more time she spent here, the more this place started to feel like home. The Jedi had a unique connection to one another, it actually felt as close to a family as she had ever experienced anything before. She gratefully took one of the sandwiches, before replying "Thank you" contently.

She took a bite while considering his question, trying to assemble each and every piece of information she had yet learned about the Force throughout her life. "I've always heard it is the energy revolving around everything, but this definition seems rather vague and broad" she admitted calmly. Then she listened to his precise, enlightening explanation, realizing that she had not actually met many so called 'Force sensitive' creatures before.

As he went on, he still listened attentively, following his outstretched hands with her gaze while he let a bunch of flowers blossom just like that. It was beautiful to see, almost magical, so that her body even reacted with slight goosebumps. This was truly wonderful and she felt this unexplainable vehement urge to learn stronger than before. She started to understand the potential behind all that. It was no wonder that Jedi were often viewed as heroes. With the Force, basically everything seemed possible then.

When he turned back to her, asking about her former experiences with mediation, she slightly shook her head. "To be honest: No, not at all. Back on Corellia I never even had the time nor the place to focus my concentration on myself. I always had to be on guard, fully aware of my surroundings. There was not much tranquility" she admitted thoughtfully, returning his gaze. Would she be even able to meditate? Normally, her inner feelings were usually quite aroused, a million thoughts spinning in her head. She was naturally agitated and alerted, because that was what her former life had requested from her.

@LouJoVi

 

[Pêro Erval]

Pêro remained in silence while Hailee answered his question. He was suspicious that, due to her backstory, his Padawan wouldn’t have much experience with meditation. However, he had made this question anyway. He had learned to never be certain of something and always search for the truth.

Now, with the confirmation of his suspicion, the Knight would help Hailee to learn about meditation and tranquility. “Now you are safe with the Jedi Order. You can lower your guard.” he said after she finished talking. “The first thing that you need to know is that the Order is our family. No one here will hurt you. We will come to your aid if you need.”

“For you to use the Force with your full potential, you’ll need to relax.” if she didn’t lower her guard, it would be more difficult for the Padawan to learn abilities with the Force. “Something that always helps me to relax is connecting with the Force that is around me.”

Then, in a demonstration to Hailee, Pêro closed his eyes and opened himself to it. The Knight felt the comforting presence of the Force in the live beings around him, including that of his Padawan. Each presence that he felt was different from each other. It was comforting to know that they were all connected by it.

After he finished it, the Knight opened his eyes. “Now I want you to do it. First, you close your eyes and take deep breaths. Then, you focus on the nature around us.” he gestured to the plants in the garden. “Every one of them is full of the Force. By doing this connection, you can abandon all what makes you afraid and nervous.”

@LadyRen

 

[Hailee Lightwood]

She listened to his explanations attentively, sensing the truth behind his statements. Yes, she knew she was safe here, but this did not mean that she wouldn't need some time to let her unconsciousness grasp that she had to leave all the painful memories of Corellia behind and that she could fully lower her guard and accept that here, there was no possible looming danger behind every corner. It would clearly take some time to change her complete mindset, but she was willing to adapt.

The word 'family' sent out a new wave of pleasant, yet a little unfamiliar warmth that flooded her body. She had already begun to realize that here on Yavin, everything was different. The people were different and so were the relationships between one another. She felt weirdly close to Pêro already. She trusted him blindly, even though she was misstrusting by nature and hadn't known the Knight for that long, but he just sent out this calm, trusting, even soothing attitude, that made her feel safe.

Hailee understood what he meant and she was aware of needing to learn how to meditate and relaxe. She knew that if there was one place to learn it, it was right here, right now. Everything was so calm, so peaceful, even harmonic. The majority was still asleep or at least in their rooms and she just had a feeling that basically everything was safe here.

She watched him closely, sensing that something inside the Force was somehow changing as he was starting to concentrate. It was as though everything grew more alive, a little more intense and yet even more peaceful. When he opened his eyes and promted her to try it herself, she immediately closed her eyes and breathed through several times. First, there was nothing but silence apart from some buzzing bugs somewhere near them and some faint bird noises in the distance. She tried to concentrate, trying to sense anything by trying to somehow reach out. It felt like an invisible flow was leading her towards their surroundings and suddenly she did feel something.

She couldn't grasp what it is or even how it felt, but there clearly were a few sensation around her, slightly overstraining her senses. She couldn't tell which senses they were even addressing, but she somehow felt it. And then she even felt something more obvious, something clearer to focus on. Something tiny. She felt it approaching her slowly, which was why she shifted her attention towards it. It came closer and closer and suddenly it felt like she was almost touching it. And then something actually did touch her, making her gasp. She opened her eyes in shock, directing her gaze downwards to her left hand, twitching uncontrollably. There was actually something. A bug. A tiny brown bug who had just crawled on top of the back of her hand and she felt just a little embarrassed by her intense reaction. "I did feel something. This little one was part of it" she explained, a grin playing on the corner of her lips as she was slightly blushing.

@LouJoVi

 

[Pêro Erval]

Pêro watched Hailee close her eyes and start to focus. Rather than giving her instructions, the Knight would remain silent. He wanted her to learn it without his interference. His philosophy as a Master was that he was only a guide, most of the learning she would do alone. He was only going to show the path that she could follow. The Knight believed that this form of learning would help her develop trust in herself and independence from him.

Slowly, he started to feel Hailee connecting with the Force around her. Pêro watched the brown beetle flying toward them and landing in the grass near her hand. When the small insect touched her skin, his Padawan opened her eyes and stared at the tiny creature.

“Good work. You did it.” he said,before giving her one of his small smiles. Since she became his Padawan, they were becoming more common. “What you felt was the living Force. As I said, every being in the Galaxy is connected through it. From the largest thing to the smallest one.” he pointed at the beetle that was on her hand.

“As Jedi, one of our missions is to protect all this life against those that threaten it.” he said, returning to his serious demeanor. “The Sith and many other groups are responsible for not only disturbing life, but also the peace of the Galaxy. This is why we are constantly in conflict with them.”

After this small speech about the mission of the Jedi, Pêro decided to return for their training session. “Now, I want you to do it again. This time, try to not focus on something specific. Only feel how different each living thing in this garden is different from each other in the Force. When you do it, try to make it come to you until you feel the Force covering your body.”

@LadyRen

 

[Hailee Lightwood]

Hailee did really appreciate his smile, as she knew that they were rather rare and carefully chosen by the knight. She did feel a little proud or at least happy that she could do it on her first try. It might have been truly advantageous that she already had at least some experience with the Force after all, but it also seemed as though his guidance was just right.

When he went on, explaining how the Force was related to all the living things and how the Sith always tried to disturb the peace, she listened attentively, signaling her understanding with a nod. Even on Corellia she had picked up countless stories of both, the Jedi and the Sith but they were all merely rumours and Pêro now seemed to enlighten her. It was of course a lot to take in, but it seemed somewhat...logical.

Once he urged her to try again, she eagerly closed her eyes, forcing herself to breathe through and concentrate again. At first, there was nothing again. But then, there was everything. She could literally feel herself surrounded by something unexplainable, something intense. It was hard for her to grasp it, but there clearly was something. Like he had instructed here, she tried to reach out to it, to pull it close even, until it felt like she was somehow wrapped in it. It felt intense and yet somehow familiar, if not even calming. Was that how it was supposed to feel? She felt herself overthinking it and by that it all seemed to fade again, so she tried to regain her focus fast.

@LouJoVi

 

[Pêro Erval]

Pêro watched his Padawan close her eyes and start to focus. Before Hailee could learn any of the Force abilities that he wanted to teach her, she needed to find a way to become calm and connect with the life that was around her. Nothing would be able to be done if it didn’t happen.

He felt Hailee open herself to the Force. Another of his small smiles appeared on his lips. She was being successful so far, now his Padawan only needed to establish a connection with it and maintain this for some time. She would soon feel the calming effects that it would bring to her.

However, Hailee soon started to lose her focus. Pêro could feel that her connection with the Force was disappearing. But before it could disappear totally, the G’weneen felt that she had recovered it. The Knight was proud of her for having done it rather than closing the connection totally.

When she finally decided to stop the connection, Pêro would continue with the lesson. “Good work. You were able to do it. Did you feel how peaceful the Force around you is?” he would ask, before proposing what she was going to do next. “Now, you will learn your first Force ability, Force healing.”

@LadyRen

 

[Hailee Lightwood]

When she had managed to regain her focus, it was getting a little exhausting and so she couldn't keep it up for long and so after a little while, she opened her eyes, taking a deep breath in and letting a deep breath out. She did feel a little drained, but somehow in a positive way and this gave her an odd feeling of satisfaction.

Hailee opened her bright green eyes again, her gaze immediately landing on her dark-eyed master sitting across from her. His slightly satisfied smile let a wave of warmth flood her body. Yes, she was actually not only proud for managing to reach out, but also that Pêro seemed satisfied with her performance for now. She owed him so much and for now, it felt good to be able to put his instructions into action.

Once he went on with praising her, she started to smile warmly to herself before nodding." I did indeed. It was...calming. Beautiful even" she explained softly, before he he told her what they would do next. Once the words had left his mouth, her eyes widened in positive excitement." I've heard of it before. A traveler once told me that a Jedi had healed an enormous wound on his chest. It is truly incredible that the Force can be used for that purpose. I can imagine that it must be exhausting to do it, as you might probably need to concentrate strongly, but I would be honored to learn it from you" she then replied, her voice still soft and filled with admiration.

@LouJoVi

 

[Pêro Erval]

While Hailee described what happened when she connected with the living Force, a smile appeared briefly at Pêro’s lips. “When you have dangerous feelings, these that could lead you to the Dark Side, I want you to do exactly what you did right now.” feeling the life around herself could be an excellent barrier. “This can help you block against these Dark influences. With time, I’ll teach you meditation techniques that will be more useful.”

“Yes, Force healing can be used to heal wounds.” he said, after his Padawan finished her story. “Making a large wound to heal takes a lot of energy. For someone that never did it before or that is starting with their training in the Force, like a Padawan, it’s very dangerous. They can even faint because of it.”

“This is why I’ll teach you the basic part of this ability.” Pêro explained to her. This was Hailee's first training session, she couldn’t expect that he would teach her something complex like full Force healing. “A Jedi can use this ability to also heal themselves and even to relieve their tiredness.”

“The ability to use the Force to relieve tiredness is one of the most important abilities that a Jedi can learn. This is what I’ll teach you today.” Hailee would need to learn it if she wanted to go on missions some day.

Suddenly, the G’weneen got up from where he was sitting and summoned the basket of sandwiches to his hand. “However, we will first do a small walk. Follow me.” he gestured for Hailee to come after him. He would guide the Padawan out of the Temple and toward the jungle.

@LadyRen

 

[Hailee Lightwood]

A soft smile was still resting on her lips while she could still sense this intense, peaceful feeling that the Force had left behind. She could hardly believe that all those years she has had no idea that she was able to connect with the Force like this. Even though she had no experience to compare it to, it just felt like Pêro's methods were working for her. He gave her clear instructions that were neither too harsh nor to lax and his soothing character was helping.

"Thank you. I will keep that in mind" she warmly smiled at him after he had explained the importance of those meditative techniques again. She was indeed very proud that she had managed to enter this meditative state, but she feared that it would take a certain amount of time before she would be able to do it alone. Right now, she still had his support and his calm aura which made it easy to relax, as she was feeling safe with him.

Once he went on, she signaled her understanding with a nod and as soon as he got up, she followed him. She wondered where he was taking her now, which made her feel a little excited again, but all the excitement was completely positive. "That sounds pretty helpful. I can very well imagine how this could come in handy" the woman replied as calm as possible, but there was a trace of zeal and joy in her voice. She really couldn't wait to go on as she was very willing to learn, but she knew that impatience was inappropriate so she still tried to cut back her fire.

@LouJoVi

 

[Pêro Erval]

"Yes, it really is. This ability is very useful during missions. Sometimes we need to walk for long distances, it allows us to have some relief without needing to rest for a long time." Pêro explained to her. "The same process allows you to heal yourself from wounds. Even then, you still should search for a proper doctor or healer. The constant use of this ability can cause more problems than good."

He would leave the Temple and guide his Padawan inside the jungle. Hailee would notice that when they got more distant from the building, the trees around them would become taller. Their large canopies would block the sun rays from penetrating and touching the lower parts of the forest. Due to that, the ground would become more humid.

The sounds of birds and insects would fill the environment around them. Pêro wondered if Hailee had ever stayed so close with nature like how she was right now. Corellia wasn’t exactly a planet where nature could grow so freely. This walk could be good for her to get used to other places. With the Galaxy being so vast, she would need to deal with different types of vegetation and weather.

When the trees started to have thick trunks and branches, Pêro would stop walking and turn to his Padawan. "Now our walk is going to be a bit different. I want you to connect with the Force around yourself and gather it to your body. Then, you redirect it to your legs. After that, you jump toward this branch." the G'weneen pointed to where he wanted her to jump.

"I'll show you." he said, before gathering the Force around his legs and jumped to one of the branches. "Now it's your time." he said to Hailee. Knowing that it was her first time doing it, Pêro would be careful for her not to get hurt. He wanted to teach her how to do it because het hoped that his Padawan would get tired to feel the effects of the Force healing.

@LadyRen

 

[Hailee Lightwood]

Hailee started to follow her master, wondering where he was taking her. Once she felt the excitement grew, she forced herself to keep calm because she knew that her emotions shouldn't be too stirred up, especially not if they were about the enter an unknown terrain.

"That sounds very interesting, but also difficult" she replied softly while following him into the thicket of the jungle as he went on explaining. It was her first time going deeper into the jungle and she could barely take her eyes of this strangely beautiful landscape. Everywhere she looked she could see little insects or even hear their buzzing and at the same time she could sense so much life inside the jungle through the Force.

They went on for quite some time until her master stopped for a moment. Eyes a little widened in excitement, she eyed the thick branch carefully before her gaze shifted back towards her dark eyed master. "That's quite a distance to cover. What happens if I fail?" she asked him with a hint of doubt in her voice, but looking back at the brunch she felt a new wave of confidence flooding her body. "You know what? Nevermind. I think I can do it" she suddenly added with a grin before she forced herself to breathe through. Remembering what Pêro had already told her, she closed her eyes and started to focus. Feeling the Force surrounding her, she slowly started pulling it towards her, until she was all wrapped up inside it again. She then started to push it down, just like Pêro suggested it, directing it all in her legs until she actually started to jump. She landed just where she wanted to, just slightly leaning towards the right to fully regain her balance. Expectantly she glanced at her master, the warm feeling of joy rushing over her. For now, she felt really relieved as this was all working rather well.

@LouJoVi

 

[Pêro Erval]

”It wasn’t so difficult. This is the first step for a Jedi that wants to learn Force healing.” Pêro explained to his Padawan. He didn’t want her to think that learning how to use the Force was something difficult. It could make her develop problems and fear of failure during the rest of the training.

From the branch that he had landed, the G’weneen watched Hailee be afraid of what would happen if she failed. ”If that happens, you will fall from the back on the ground. However, I’ll be there to help you. You will not get hurt, I promise.” Pêro smiled at her, trying to comfort her about what she was going to do.

Apparently it worked, because Hailee soon decided to do what he had asked. Pêro watched his Padawan close her eyes and gather the Force around herself. With a jump, she landed in a branch next to him. “Good work! As you can see, we can use the Force to enhance our physical abilities. With it, even a punch can become more powerful.”

Then, he turned to look at a branch of a nearby tree. Gathering the Force around himself and moving it to his legs, Pêro jumped toward it. He would land safely there. “Now, I want you to follow me through the trees. If we do it, soon we will reach the place that I want to show you. Here you will learn Force healing.”

@LadyRen

 

[Hailee Lightwood]

She hadn't only felt this joyful in a while and especially not that safe. Even though they were starting to jump on branches, thereby covering inhumane, incredible distances with their jumps, she felt fully safe and protected. Over the past few days she had realized that especially Pêro was there for her, and this feeling was truly comforting and she had rarely ever felt that way before.

She nodded eagerly when he mentioned that by using thus trick, every kind of movement could be enhanced. That was actually not just amazing, but also extremely helpful. She smiled warmly before nodding another time, shifting her gaze from the dark-eyed master towards the branches in front of them. "Thank you. Okay. I will follow you. I still can't wait to see where you are taking me" she then replied truthfully. Once again she cautioned herself not to become too overly excited, because she knew that this would lead to a loss of concentration and it seemed like focus was much needed right now.

She breathed through again and prepared to jump to the next branch, again just like he had instructed her and luckily, it worked again. Once she had reached the exact branch where he was standing now, she had to be careful to even find the place to land, as there was not much space to stand. Expectantly she glanced at her master, who stood literally right in front of her, hoping that he would go on. "Let's go" the words did escape her joyfully smiling lips, hoping that Pêro would not scold her for her excited urging. She did this to tease him a little, well aware of the fact that he was usually rather stern, but she had hoped that this time, he would just reply with humor as well.


@LouJoVi

 

[Pêro Erval]

While he watched Hailee’s efforts, Pêro noticed how her emotions had changed since they had begun the training. At first, the Knight felt how the Padawan was afraid and unsure of what was going to happen. However, after her successes, she had become happier and more confident.

The G’weneen felt proud of his Padawan. Opening up to others, at least for her Master, was something important that she would need to learn too. Given her backstory, he feared that she would have problems trusting him or with the training. So far he seemed to be wrong with these conclusions.

“I believe that you like it. It’s a place that will help you focus.” he gave her a brief smile, before turning to look at another branch. “Be careful with your jumps, you can do it with calm and patience. There is no rush.” Pêro looked at her one last time before he jumped toward another branch.

During the time that they moved jumping from branch to branch, Pêro would occasionally stop to look at how Hailee was. He was being careful that if she failed to reach one and fell, the G’weneen would be close enough to use the Force to hold her before she hit the ground.

After some time, they would finally reach the place that Pêro wanted to show her. Jumping down from the tree, the Knight would land in the grass of the board of an abyss that was close to several waterfalls. The water would fall from it and form a river that would run through a forested valley below.

“We arrive. Many Jedi visit this place when they want to connect with the living Force. This is calm and the sound of the water helps with the meditation.” Pêro explained, before sitting in the grass and placing the basket near him. Then, he gestured for Hailee to sit. The second part of her training would start now.

@LadyRen

 

[Hailee Lightwood]

As expected, he didn't actually started to joke around. Hailee should have known. He was too serious for that. He simply ignored her little teasing and went on, but he did caution her to remain calm and patient. When he turned away and started to jump, she couldn't help but to grin a little. It was truly amazing that their age gap wasn't big at all, but her master did behave like he was much more older most of the time. It didn't bother her, but sometimes this fact became rather obvious and this was one of this little moments. What she did however still appreciate was the increased amount of his rare smiles, but before she would get lost in thoughts, she started to focus again and followed him as fast and precise as she could.

As they went on, Hailee noticed that he was regularly checking on her, which was actually quite sweet of him. She had never met someone that considerate and caring and it just felt comfortable and safe to be around him. She tried her best to remain focused, but after some time she could really feel the exhaustion creeping up.

Breathlessly, she reached the last branch from where her master just jumped off and once she followed him down to the ground again, she was breathing slightly heavier than usual and she could really feel her body growing a little tired.
"Oh my...that is truly beautiful and peaceful" she answered, her green eyes wide in admiration. She quickly followed his gesture and sat down across from him, trying to catch her breath and to ignore the heaviness of her legs and the tiredness inside her brain. She had truly never seen such a beautiful place and so it was hard for her to take her eyes of this amazing scenery. She was, however, curious what they would do now but she felt like she could use some rest.

@LouJoVi

 

[Pêro Erval]

Even after Hailee talked, Pêro remained in silence, only staring at the sight in front of him. Indeed, it was beautiful and peaceful. In this place, the G’weneen felt closer to the living Force. The knowledge that he was part of it, together with all of the living things that were around him, was comforting. This made him not feel alone.

After some time contemplating the waterfalls and feeling the Force, the G’weneen turned to look at his Padawan. “Yes, it’s. In a place so full of life like this one, a Jedi can more easily connect with the Force. If you try to do what I taught you back in the Temple, you’ll see how your connection will be stronger.”

“I brought you here because in this place you will be able to use this connection to the Force to relieve the tiredness of your body. And because you needed to be tired for it to work.” Pêro said, before he turned away from Hailee and closed his eyes. Due to the effort that he made to come here, the G’weneen could feel the muscles of his body aching.

He focused and gathered the Force around himself. Then, he directed it toward the tiredness on his body. After some time, the G’weneen would no longer feel tired. If she paid attention to her Master, Hailee would be able to notice that something had changed on him.

Once he finished, the Knight would open his eyes and turn to look at his Padawan. “I used Force healing to end my tiredness, now you will do the same. First, you need to connect with the Force and gather it around your body. Then, you will direct it to the parts of your body that you feel more tired. After doing it, you need to think that they were healed.”
