From the moment I spoke with Duchess of Arabanth as a youth, I knew I wanted to change the world for the better. I had known tragedy, I had know pain, and I had know anger and hatred. But that was the past. Now I strived to overcome all those adversities in my life. Though the scars on my body and my face, once a reminder of the revenge I wanted so desperatly to seek, are now mute reminders of how fate can change. I no longer feel anger and hatred the way I once did. I am learning to control it rather than it control me.
I began to turn the tragedies in my life into something special. Rather than looking it as a tragedy, I now take it as a lesson of life, leanred and conquered. Though I do suffer from pride, hence the mask covering my face. I wear it more as to hide myself from the galaxy than hide the scars that haunt my face. I know pride can lead to a down fall and to the path of the dark side, but don't we all suffer from pride at some pointe in our lives?
Now the time had come for me to begin my training in the Imperial Knights. Two things at this pointe have eluded me. The Imperial Knight Philosphy and lightsaber combat. The latter is why I am here today. How can I protect the galaxy from the Sith and thier evil cohorts if I can't even protect myself. So after asking around, I found another who was willing to assist me in learning the basics of lightsaber combat. I studied up on the forms and found Soresu calling to me. But to read about it, understand it, and how to truly utilize it our three seperate concepts. One must learn to walk before they can run.
So I stood with my hands clasped behind my back, lightsaber hilt dangling at my side, eyes closed, and my mind empty of all thoughts and emotions. Best to go into this training session without doubts in my own abilities or distractions. So now I wait for the other to show up and setme on the course of a master swordsmen.
