Izel stopped at the mouth of the caves. She didn't want to interfere with the Padawans' trial. Reaching out with her Force sense it was easy enough to identify all three of them, and should she feel any kind of danger it would be no issue coming to their aid. Even though Max's words about joining the Sith were clearly not meant to be taken seriously the Vratix couldn't help but cringe a little, thinking back to her own failures to control her darker impulses in the past.
"You shouldn't joke about such things..." She said quietly while looking at the ground. Unbeknownst to the Jedi Knight the darkness brought about by her own memories would mesh with the energy Max had created, further strengthening the insidious atmosphere within the caves. The Force would tug stronger at Isen, calling him into the tunnel he had previously pointed out. Not only that, but all three of them would feel their worst traits being amplified by the dark energy in the caves.
Meanwhile Izel continued her conversation now in private with Max, trying to steer their talk in a different direction. "But I wanted to thank you for accompanying us anyway," She said gratefully. "I'm still trying to get the hang of all this. Training Isen on his own is nerve racking enough. I nearly had a heart attack when they asked me to oversee this ceremony." Despite what she believed was good progress in her apprentice she still couldn't help but feel like she could be doing better as his master. She would never express such personal doubts in front of Isen of course, she always made an effort to appear as confident as possible around him, but she still had those doubts nonetheless. She was sure every teacher held them, and was eager for a chance to discuss how to overcome them.
