The Training of Koth Melan ( Koth/Aden )

[Koth Melan]

On board the Krasnoyar, Koth's personal starfighter, he contemplated his decision to seek out a master to train him in the arcane arts of the Force. Long accustomed to the silence of his own meditations, only time would eventually tell if Koth would stand being subservient to another being, even if only in a training environment.

His ship exited hyperspace above a deeply verdant world, seemingly teeming with trees, and all manner of forest life, animal and plant alike. He had a hard time trying to get the navicomputer to select a landing sight, and eventually preferring to select one himself. He landed the Krasnoyar, secured the fighter and headed out into the jungle.

He was seeking out an accomplished master of the force,one Aden For'hil. A reply to his message regarding an apprenticeship said that he was to meet Aiden at a grove near a lake on the eastern continent, so Koth made his way there.

 

[Inferno]

Aden came from behind him silently and using the force to dusguise himself. He was draped in his cloak in the blistering weather as he eyed this new fellow. He stayed behind him for s couple seconds until he broke the silence.

"Interisting that you came...what is it that you seek on this quiet planet of mine?"

He remained in the shadow of his cloak not revealing his face. He did though stay unusually cool from such an exhausting heat. The one thing, if anything at all, that could possibly be felt by such a cold greeting was that he remained smiling and friendly, much like a religious person of inner peace would have.

 

[Koth Melan]

Startled by the approach and introduction of the new man, Koth jumped as he spoke. Relaxing himself, he turned to face Aden.

" I have come to learn the mysteries of the Force. I have had some initial experience with the Force, but I have come to request training on a more advanced level. " he finished.

 

[Inferno]

Aden not known for being normal be any measure. Smiling and lifted his head slightly to show the bottom of his face revealing his friendly smile and his bright pearly white teeth. It was like he didn't even he the man as he started to circle him in a strange way.

"If a man with a weapon were to approach... you in great distress and request your help in a battle... to retrieve a lost and precious item from a band of men... what would you do?"

Aden stopped behind him as he remained a little too close to him as he awaited his reply.

 

[Koth Melan]

"Simple, I would aid the men and then slay them to take the tiem for myself in the end. I would seek out their trust, and then once my own goals were accomplished and they were of no use to me, then I would simply dispose of them." Koth said.

He continued to face the man in front of him, keeping eye contact.

 

[Inferno]

Aden kept his smile on even though he frowned on the inside of the answer. This one would be violent and selfish in the end and probably would defect to serve himself instead of the greater good now matter how deluted his mind is. Aden nodded and started to walk away as he accidently revealed his lightsaber in passing and tried to hide it quickly. He waved and wished him luck on finding this person on such a unpopulated planet.

 

[Koth Melan]

Realizing that he too had his father's lightsaber, he was not afraid to take off after the man deep into the jungle. This man would train him. Or he would die, and Koth would find another that would.

 

[Inferno]

Aden could feel through the force that was being followed and very detrmined as well. He stopped by behind a tree a waited for him to pass by. As he went by Aden reached out through the force as trapped him and bounded him with the force. He levitated him in the air as a dust of wind pushed back his hood and revealed a sturn face.

"Now tell me why you would dispose of people you do not know nor have made enemies with, just to get at a material item."

Aden calmed himself and focus himself through the force.

 

[Koth Melan]

Struggling fruitlessly, Koth could not phsyically break the force bond encompassing him. He was forced to answer the question.


" If the object was of great worth, I would use it for my own ends, whatever they might be. If they could not take the object by themselves, then they would be too weak to deserve the object that I helped them achieve. " He finished.

Now, while the man was listening, Koth had gathered his rage and frustration at being captured, and the disdain he felt for the man, having refused to train him thus far, and released it in a fury of hatred and malice, hoping to break the bond holding him.

 

[Inferno]

If he could have focused his energy he could have broken free but he was relying completely on his emotions. His emotions were controling him and not the other way around.

"I'm afraid if you were to join this order you would quickly leanr that such things other then knowledge are nothing more then a burden or the lust of the baser sort. There are only a few items in the galaxy worth fighting for and most them already start wars over."

Aden dropped him to the ground and quickly removed his cloak and threw it to the tree. It revealed this lean body and muscular body even with the fine linen shirt on top. Not even a drop of sweat could be seen through it, which should that he was quite calm and incontrol of himself.

 

[Koth Melan]

Steeling himself for possible combat, Koth got up, and grounded himself and drew the force to him, to throw up a basic barrier to protect himself from force attacks. It was crude, but fairly efficient. With more training he could have done better.

" I have played enough of these games. I am ready for my training. You have already tried to confound me with riddles, and I have little patience for dogmatism or platitudes. If you will not train me, I will kill you where you stand. " Koth said, as he drew his lightsaber.

 

[Inferno]

Aden laughed at the foolishness of the yound man as had is barrier up long ago. He didn't need to reach for his saber because h knew he wouldn't need it. He smirked and composed himself.

"To put it simply a life in the ways of this order is not about fortune or fame even though you find that you can acquire such things. A life in this order is about knowledge and control of the force and yourself...except i have a feeling that your more subborn then that and you have to much anger in your soul to understand this yet... i fear you'll have to be broken through pain"

 

[Koth Melan]

"You will find that it is anger that drives me!" hKoth shouted, and he ignited his saber and leapt at the man, aiming to cleave him diagonally from left to right.

 

[Inferno]

Aden didn't change expressions as he pushed him with the force and easily ripped through his barrier. He kept his ground as he watch the man fly through the air.

"You need to control yourself in order to complete your task whatever it may be"

 

[Koth Melan]

OOC: You will need to learn to accept my character's anger, and also, I am not here to join a faction. Merely for training.

IC:

Landing on a backflip, Koth cursed. The man before him was far more adept at the force than him. He had to yield in this particular instance. Perhaps he was of some use to Koth yet. Deactivating his blade, he walked forward, trying to.."calm" himself, or that is, bury his emotions, bottling them up for later, and came up to the man.

"I have but one question. Are you going to train me or not?"

 

[Inferno]

"What are your purposes for learning the ways of the force"

Aden smirked he might actually find some ammusement here.

 

[Koth Melan]

OOC: We're done here.

IC:

Koth had had enough. The man would live for now, but one day he would meet his match. Koth head back to his vessel, climbed onboard and started the prestart sequences. The fighter roared to life, and lifted off into the sky.
