Tribulations

[Mr. Crunchy]

The Twi'lek nodded slowly, contemplating the task in her mind. Surely this would be the most challenging task of the day - and the most painful. Well, it seemed training would continue in this fashion for a while. She wondered briefly when lightsabers and using the force offensively would come into the mix - getting that out of the way would be preferable.

Clearing her mind utterly, she began to reach out with the Force in order to sense what was around her, but her 'vision' was clouded. She knew that pain lay in store, the question was how much.

Cath was waiting by the exit as she waited for a sound but didn't get anything. If hr padawan wanted to walk around she could it was interesting at least she wasn't panicking.. Slowly Cath tapped the rods and spoke. "Come now padawan if you take to long we will never get to the practical stuff. You'll just be stuck in an endless cycle of sleep deprivation, starvation, lashes and trying to remember large amounts of knowledge. Force and saber skills will be elusive to you until you show me you can handle the pain that will come from burning yourself with your blade because you were clumsy. Just like the other padawans who get brought to me."

Alari slowly sensed around with the Force, her clarity of mind beginning to pick up minute disturbances in the air around her. She could sense her master, certainly, but the bars were harder. Walking forward cautiously, she hissed as she prickled a finger along one. Reeling back, she almost hit another, but stopped herself just in time. The Twi'lek took a deep breath, continuing along her path, wrapped the sleeve of her robe around her hand so that when she did occasionally prickle against the bars, the pain was dulled and not so sharp.

Finally, she reached the end of her route. Her lekku had curled defensively up behind her head so as to not get hit and exact brain trauma, and her left hand was covered with a few burns, but other than that the Rutian was unmarred.

Cath looked int he soft light at her padawan as she smiled and spoke. "Very good very good indeed. You have done well. Now we can move on to the hard stuff. Tell me which saber form most interests you?"
