    ((sorry for the delay)) Hmmm.... Arclight thought as his brow furrowed. "I agree... I will do my best to do as you ask" said Arclight as he let his footsteps trail back into the cold Nabooian rain. The footfalls beneath him echoed with a muddy slush and although his mind seemed focused on its task, a small chuckle braced his lips as the sound reached his ears. However, when the sounds were finished, Arclight found himself within the icy rain, pushing his senses far and wide as he'd done before to illuminate the force energies hidden by mortal limitations. The only question now was how to channel it; before Arclight stood two different ways to use the energy he now had at the level of his perception, but both served as practical applications. So, seeing it within the limits of his curiosity, Arclight experimented with both channeling methods simultaneously. A powerful cloud of thought and emotion ensued, bringing the construction of concrete logic and focus, mixed with the chaotic swells of Arclight's emotions. At first the streams of energy gained were well enough to perform the action, but Arclight sadly underestimated the potency of using both forms. Instead of embracing the force, Arclight let the force embrace him and instead of choosing one side he chose both, which formed a rather explosive consequence. Like filling a dammed lake to its brim and not halting the water flow; the inevitability of destruction was drawn from this and Arclight's movements were a testament to this rather harsh realization. It did not immediately surface however and as Arclight tried to focus the energy he'd collected to perform the indicated task, the area around Arclight exploded with a large kinetic force that spread outward, knocking Arclight to the ground and flinging millions of raindrops in different directions... Arclight remained conscious, but was laying down in the mud as the fruits of his labor came to bite him in the butt. "I suppose I let off with a little too much power huh?" Arclight stated as if the event had not just happened.

    ((sorry it took me so long to post)) Arclight shivered a little, eying the shimmering night sky that poked its starry baubles into a beautiful nocturnal canvas. The knight sighed deeply and looked down at Tiana who had been standing with him as the others left. He saw her matted hair and black eyes and gazed deeply into her, hoping to gather her attention. His intentions weren't of intimacy, but as cold little drops of impatience began rubbing against Arclight's hair repeatedly, he supposed it was time to find shelter. He could see his master as she no doubt struggled internally to maintain what little consciousness of herself she held to and felt empathetic to her plight. His thoughts went with her in support and although he was merely her pupil, he hoped that she would not be the only one educating... Looking around with another rain induced cringe, the knight found a large rock over hang nearby. The distance wasn't great, but with his lumbering now asleep feet, he began the trek towards it in a broad interval. His heart was beating normally and his chest rising as it should be, but something about sitting for a long period of time made Arclight's legs feel numb. The grass about him was wet and filled with squishy mud that bulged out from the sides of his boot prints and although Fuh seemed determined on his course towards the rock, he was caught in the moment of downpour. The rain pushed its odor upon the breeze - an odor that Arclight had no equivalent to in Tatooine - and the rain massaged his sore muscles. He could feel each cold drop as it fell in parties of 3 or 4, pounding upon his back, shoulders and chest with grace. Yes, his temperature was falling rapidly and the frigidity of his body began to intensify, but he enjoyed, for a moment, the beauty of the storm. There was still distance yet between him and the overhang, but Arclight was taking his time as he sent a slightly difficult communication to Tiana through the force... It seems to be a little wet out here. I found a rock overhang nearby if you'd like to join me before we continue on to Theed?

    Arclight seemed to lighten up with the scholar's words now that Alastor stopped sniping every comment he made. Arclight was not intimidating by any means, but he could see that a man of his stature could prove somewhat threatening given slight aggressive stares. The figure of Arclight sighed as he thumbed through his greasy black hair and fell to the ground, landing on his rump rather soundly. A long sigh gutturally flowed through Arclight as he yawned simultaneously at the setting Nabooian Sun or suns. Arclight wasn't as focused on the number as much as the sheer beauty of the sight. "Thank you for understanding even slightly Alastor." Arclight let out as he fished around the basket for a hint of something else, but it appeared the entirety of the basket had been combed. There were no tasty morsels left for the knight, but he wasn't famished and would live with the hunger for what it was worth. "I don't even understand the direction I want to go right now, but I never really believed in extremes. I used to be considered a might good boy back in my hometown, but since then I've seen some crazy things, experienced some crazy things and been imprisoned. Life can't be all good... However, I've also experienced love, heartache and rage, but I don't want them to dominate every fiber of my being. It's a tough burden to bear, but I think if I can't embrace a certain amount of both philosophies then I might just not learn about them at all and leave it at that." Arclight stood up and paced a bit with hands nestled in his pockets ignoring the idle swaying of his sheathed swords. The movement of the wind blew gently across his face and body, showing that confusion may have been the least of his worries...

    Fuh looked at Alastor in mild irritation and palmed his face as if to say the message was not gleaned clearly enough. Fuh knew the man behind Alastor, the one pulling the strings, was apparently a well known Sith master. The thoughts of everyone here seemed to echo that regard, but Fuh could swear he was off track. The crazy glow had Fuh transfixed, but the words that doomed his whole concepts for the future, echoed as the words of his tormentor years ago; the words of his slave master that still echoed in his head today, trying to show Fuh that he would amount to nothing. "I did not say that the Jedi were more powerful than the Sith or vice versa, just that theoretically they hold the same power in different ways. You say that the dark side is more tempting than the light side and that is because the darker side of human nature is more tempting then complete altruism. For instance... Five minutes ago I was thinking about skewering you on the end of my Two-Handed vibro claymore, but I managed to resist the impulse, which is another element of human nature." Arclight passed off as he walked a little closer to the scholar discarding the remains of his latest sandwich towards a wandering squall. "According to a rather influential birdie in my life I have come to learn that the force, being what it is, is a plane not a line... The force, as I have come to realize" continued Fuh as he casually and subtly winked towards Tiana, "Is something a being can walk and is manipulated merely by choice. Sure there might in existence be a sure force path of light and dark, but there are many more to take. I am willing to bet you there is a Jedi who has taken on some Sithly aspects and a Sith who has taken to some more peaceful techniques." finished Fuh as he started to pace around the blanket taking care not to bump anyone. "I think even if there is no sure neutral ground to be had for the founding of an order, the Sith can learn a great deal from the Jedi and vice versa and the only reason they are spread so far apart is the sheer nature of polar opposites. People who are so opposite that when together push each other further apart, like magnets. So naturally the people who find themselves so far on either end cannot possibly comprehend the nature of the other. Sure you may think that the Jedi are but a fading candle, but in all reality they will just come back no matter what resistance you muster hence the continuing of the war. So I see where you were going with that, but what I don't understand is why you close yourself off to the power of the light side and instead only embrace corruption and hatred. A human being possesses all of these traits and as such a true force disciple would naturally hold both powers... Or so I think." Arclight coughed a little as the cold of the night started to chill him a little, but remembering Hoth he just shook it off. "Again though, this is my opinion; you have your opinions and although they may be 'wrong' (he says emphasizing the word with visible parenthesis) it is not up to me to tell you. I'm not an evangelist from another church, I'm not an acolyte of a cult trying to lure you. I'm merely who I am... Now, you asked me for my opinion and I gave it. Now you tell me something. How did you find yourself walking toward a picnic in the middle of nowhere?"

    Fuh's anger was still a force that lingered, but somehow he controlled his aggressive tendencies. His impulses seemed to fade into the beating winds of Naboo as time flew by. The knight's face fell directed upon Tiana for a small time. who seemed slightly uncomfortable, but seeing as how the "scholar" directed yet another question towards him, Fuh felt it impolite not to respond. Fuh turned his head to gaze once again at Alastor and hesitated a moment before walking over even closer to the center of the picnic, his stomach grumbling loudly... Man I have a beastly metabolism he thought to himself idly as he reached for another sandwich, squatting to put his hand once more in the finely woven basket. He didn't take his focus from the scholar though as he chewed heavily upon his food. Taking moments between the chewing though, Fuh got a few words in here and there. "It's not so much that I disagree with your think, but think that it is about as one sided as the Jedi... The Jedi close themselves to a great deal of experiences, pains, pleasures and other things the world has to offer in order to glean a purer connection with the force. However the Sith feed off of everything else; the purity of the feeling, the passion, the hunger... At least, that's what I've come to understand. Both orders lay at the extremes of the force when I desire a more middle ground." Fuh took another small break to finish his sandwich that disappeared fairly quickly and after swallowing continued, "In all my years as a living person I've only gathered few lessons from morality and my parents along with other friends have given me a basic knowledge of the word's dichotomy... I hate politics; it drives me up the wall, but seeing political debates shows me in a way exactly how the Sith and Jedi could've came to be. Each were beings specially attuned with the force and each chose a path based off of their own natures. Their paths were of a highly personal and human endeavour and from there they did little but form two individual rival cults. Following the same path I could make an order of my own if I follow my own path and choose my own ways..." Fuh took a moment and wiped of his cheek sighing contently... "I guess what I'm trying to say is that, I don't necessarily disagree with everything you are saying, but instead see that a medium is there to be reached and just sticking on one end, hypocritically yelling at the other is rather counterproductive." finished Fuh as he pushed himself to his feet and wiped the excess crumbs from his fingers...

    Fuh took a deep breath as the visions from before began to sink into his head. The grass around him seemed to touch lightly the hem of his heavy pants and pastel colors drove the light from the Nabooian scene into darkness. Fuh knew the day was crossing over to points of masked visibility and the picnic, if indeed the travelers remained, would need to become a campfire if they were to stay entertained. Not that Fuh was really all that motivated to do so... Emily, after taking a small break from the speaking limelight offered a few words to lighten the mood and change the subject, but Fuh shook his head. Fuh moved his hand from its position on the rock to his head in efforts to muster a suitable memory, but none of this 'Bekka' seemed to surface. "Sorry, Emily... I haven't heard anything about a 'Bekka' around here. This 'Corelli' character, if he's so knowledgeable, would be able to help you out a bit better than I can." Fuh went silent though as it seemed he hadn't the slightest bit to contribute to the conversation. Then as the scholar once again drew attention to himself, Fuh noticed the intense blue glow in his eyes. The idle threat glanced off of Fuh, his steam worn out. Attention seemed to draw Fuh toward the eerie blue and a surging power of uncertainty grew within him. The knight simply stared at at the fiend's sapphire eyes and began to piece together that something horrid gripped the scholar's consciousness. This stuff about his master seemed to lend itself to an unhealthy worship and as such drew Fuh into further suspect of possession. To simply lend a reply as to not be rude, Fuh simply stood where he was and continued staring deeply into the scholar's foreign spectral blue orbs. "No, I have nothing to say to Faust at this time. Are you taking messages?"

    Arclight stood still as the words between him spread about the plains. His eyes remained fairly unchanged as he breathed evenly, ignoring the clearly adamant acolyte before him. It wasn't as if Arclight hadn't heard of this type of people before, but he hadn't ever heard of them from a Sith's perspective, much less a Sith's perspective in general aside from Tiana's. The conversation built to a growing uncertainty in the Knight though as he leaned upon the rather large rock he found earlier that lay only a few feet from the blanket. He wasn't about to grasp what the clearly close minded fool was rambling about, but something seemed to give Fuh more understanding as to where he stood. It wasn't really much, but it seemed substantial enough. Residing in his own head, a series of thoughts spewed forth in a random stream, seemingly leading him further to where he should go next”¦ Two rather large figures of opaque shape resembling different parts of Fuh appeared casually and started conversation with themselves. ”œWell this seems to be a big waste of time,”

    ((It wasn't necessarily meant to be hostile... Lol... It was meant to show that he was annoyed. Lol... Oh well)) Arclight finished his small irritated spasm and quickly retreated back into his previous silence, playing pensive to the whole lot while still stewing in his own mind. It wasn't enough that he was having trouble coming up with his own mindset; now he had to sit through Sith babble, which really only made Arclight more confused. His eyes, in sparse intervals, took time to analyze the noble as he stood noting the scholar who approached. There was something to be said about the pretentiousness of an aristocracy when they paid attention to their lower subjects, but what exactly had this man to gain by spending his time out here amongst actual people? Arclight thought, wouldn't he feel more comfortable with servants and lives bending to his will? However, Fuh was in no place to really judge the man. Not too long ago he too stumbled rather haphazardly onto the picnic and was greeted with warm hospitality, why shouldn't he? One feeling burnt Fuh to his core though as he looked down toward the nobleman standing only a few feet away. A burning desire for revenge pierced Fuh's consciousness, pushing the limits of his mind until his face showed visible discomfort. The knight broiled underneath the skin, but didn't lash out at anyone; memories of his past as a slave haunted him, poking him with ethereal sticks and aggravating him until his own murderous temptations seemed overwhelming. Arclight's mind and consciousness could sate the desire from within, but the feelings were tremendous enough to give the knight pause. As a whole though, Fuh never moved. His head was down, for the most part, and other than an occasional small twitch, he was visibly fine. After a few minutes of calming his inner demons, Fuh sighed and returned his arms to their crossed position about his chest.

    At first Arclight's gaze remained stoic, his eyes pushing further to regions beyond their small picnic, but he thought to himself, with such charm this newcomer has introduced himself into our rather humble picnic... He must've thought his comment biting. Fuh, as he was known to friends, stood up, hands off of his swords and looked straight into the man's eyes with not so much as a sneer or grimace. His hands left his sides and Arclight stood there staring at the man until he resolved it was ok to move. Then, Arclight shifted his feet to a rather large rock nearby and leaned upon it, his arms crossed over his chest. "No, but it is customary to be suspicious of any random person who just happens to stumble upon a picnic... I am sorry if I showed you any disrespect your majesty, but you don't feel right to me and as long as I have any reason to disbelieve your peaceful bullshit, I believe I have the right to prepare myself for a battle. No matter how foolhardy it might be." Arclight remained still, his swords within arms reach, should he need them, but seeing as how the newcomer hadn't actually threatened them, it would be asinine to just go full force into a mad rage with no thought as to the reason. Fuh, aside from his watchful glance now and again, didn't really look all that upset, his eyes shifted back toward the picnic toward Tiana and Emily, when yet another interruption launched itself into their little corner of Naboo. Fuh rolled his eyes, making it obvious, as he seemed put off now; his hair was roughed, splayed in different directions; his eyes were shifting rapidly about, annoyed, by the currently massed unknowns and his posture slowly became interrupted as his arms were no longer crossed at his chest. What is it with this picnic spot that draws so many people, much less Sith... thought Fuh as he kicked a pebble across the ground.

    ((sorry it took me so long to post - got really busy )) Arclight, a man seeming to be of severe internal though, was not lost on the newcomer as he approached the picnic. Instead, he paid the man no attention aside from an idle nod as the breeze settled uneasily around him. There did seem to be an air of anxiousness though in the atmosphere about Fuh and judging as to its sudden appearance, he could only assume it had something to do with the man's presence. The stoic knight upon the floor looked upon the newcomer who seemed to be offering hospitable pleasantries of his own. He offered beverages and things to welcome himself to the picnic, but something about the man seemed off. Sure, his friendly demeanor was enough to fool even the common minded individual, but his façade wasn't that hard to pick apart for Fuh who sat there analyzing the man's every move. Fuh kept his hands near his sword sheaths should he need them and refused the beverages he was offered. Instead, Arclight took a small sandwich and started munching on it as Tiana and the newcomer talked. After a few moments of conversation it became clear as to the man's affiliation with darker powers, which did nothing to comfort Arclight's nerves. The man seemed simple and harmless enough, but something about him pushed Fuh's hand consistently toward his swords.

    Arclight watched, quietly munching a sandwich, as the two conferred in front of him. Although most of the conversation seemed to be linear in its path toward a repeatedly expounded upon theme, Arclight was interested in what Tiana had to say as well. It seemed his master was thoroughly drenched within the force's energy and it claimed her as a victim. She plunged into the waters of its bountiful energies only to find herself drowning upon its true nature. Arclight could only hope that this was not evident of everyone who hoped to embrace the true nature of the force. It tugged at his mind as he sat there, but something about the whole ordeal just seemed mind blowing. Fuh couldn't think of another way to go aside from this one. The side of darkness was overwhelming and claimed his righteous soul while the "clearly defined path" of light denied a part of himself that he couldn't hide. Vengeance, rage and incurable hatred burned deep within Arclight as he sat, but he also embraced the lofty ideals of compassion and mercy. He was not a killer he was not a priest... Where did that leave him though? Some place between the two where the dividing lines cross? The inter dimensional moral purgatory that lay there for any Jedi or Sith that denied their true identity? Arclight was thoroughly confused, but he chose to sit amongst the two ladies as they talked and to soak in what they had to say. It was intriguing to say the least, but it would seem that Arclight himself was starting to deny his own predetermined path. On the harsh winterlands of Hoth he was so determined to bring justice to anyone who needed it whether they liked it or not, but he looked at that past now with a wry and bemused smile. How naive I was... He thought as he sat there, but Fuh couldn't come up with a convincing reason aside from the anger that he felt toward his slave master for him to leave the prison. if that was the case, why didn't I search for him? Why did I go halfway across the galaxy to a place of snow and ice to find Tiana when that wasn't what I'd originally intended? Questions he couldn't answer right now and questions that would surely need to be answered before Arclight could even grasp any strain of the force's true entity. His motivation skewed and his purpose seemingly bent, but not corrupted, Arclight sat watching as the Nabooian plains brushed about under the planet's majestic winds. He noticed though, between bites, that the conversation was coming to a close. Fuh could only wonder why the woman, even after having so much in common with Tiana's sayings and thoughts, would consider leaving. However, it was her decision to do so and he would say bye to her as she left as any good ethical stranger would. ((Btw Tiana... The guy in my sig is the guy from this pic http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t224/pinckz/hellgate_london_001.jpg))

    "Well that's just it Emily... I wasn't. Oh and you can call me Fuh if you want, Arclight is a nickname and Fuh is closer to what my real name is anyway." Arclight looked at the ground for a moment, feeling the warm breeze brush across his face as he ate a bit of his sandwich. It had been a while since he actually thought about his escape and he wondered where his cellmates ended up. They weren't the favored times of his life, but he figured recollection brought more understanding sometimes; it was better to remember your past and move on then to shield it from your mind. "I was imprisoned far before my slave master even thought of releasing me and I broke out of that prison about 2 or so years ago. Tiana and I've been together ever since... Crazily enough I found her on Hoth, but I've been attached to her ever since. Not physically obviously, but you know" said Fuh as he looked over toward Emily and Tiana with a smile. "Oh and don't be sorry, it couldn't be helped. As long as there are wealthy people in the world who seek to injustice weaker few with work to fuel their economic beast, then there will inevitably be slavery. I'm just lucky I managed to escape the prison I was sent to, instead of staying at the village and watching as everything I grew up with died at my feet." Arclight said as the vision from earlier replayed in his head as if teasing him with the butchering of his childhood. "It makes me angry to know that I wasn't there to protect them, but I was imprisoned by the very man that did it so I really couldn't have done anything in that state." Arclight felt helpless as the feeling of loss surged within him, but he'd only recently realized this phenomena. Without the vision implemented by Tiana's odd exercise, Arclight would've never seen his village die... So it wasn't entirely his fault... It wasn't Tiana's fault either. Wherever this man was, he was going to pay dearly.

    Arclight was thoroughly soaked by the conversation as it passed. He listened contently, munching idly on the sandwich that was offered him, but offered nothing as the two seemed hooked on each other's words. He didn't really have too much to say because he felt that their words mirrored his own evolving beliefs. Deep in his mind as he lay preoccupied, only idly hearing the voice of his master as months seemingly passed by, Fuh had a crude but beneficial out of body experience. There he stood, between what seemed to be two great powers within himself. The plane upon which he stood seemed to mock the ground that he laid on, but something different struck him as he began getting up. He didn't see his dormant body nor Tiana during the entire trip. For a moment, it took Fuh by surprise to see her gone, but after a while it became true to him that the entire thing was a dream. It had some reality to it, but as Fuh continued to look around it was apparent that this was either a dream or Tiana was messing with his head again. On one side of the plane you had a seemingly innocent meadow filled with joy and harmony. It represented everything that seemed to be good in the world, while the other half was the polar opposite. Sins beyond sins were committed like nobody's business as raping, pillaging, and murdering seemed to be the norm. The plains lit aflame and the creatures of the grass seemed to grow in size and become vicious monsters. It seemed of little choice of where Fuh favored to go, but something drew him to the other half as well. Each step he took towards the meadow however made him as an avatar darker and conversely as he stepped the other direction. It seemed the darker a path he walked the lighter he became as if to balance the two phenomena. Just when Fuh seemed effectively puzzled the two energies collided into one and the field existed as if it always was. The green grass shone in the bright sunlight but amongst its beautiful caress even the foulest of crimes were committed. Everything existed in balance he thought to himself as his body lay in a rather strong coma. Every step you make towards the darkness a coexistent effort is pushing in the opposite direction. The force and or morality didn't work as a mere path, but as a galaxy within itself. There are many places you can be within it, but no matter what, it is balanced. If the force is unbalanced it will bring balance to itself through the use of morals and vice versa. It was a great deal to take in and, even if it was misleading, Fuh felt strongly in the visions he saw and believed that it was a message letting him know more about the power he strove so hard to learn. Fuh sat mulling the instance over as he ate a sandwich in peace, keeping an eye on the two before him. After their stories of their parents was shared though, he felt it only just to share his. So, in between bites, Fuh explained in a rather calm voice, "If what I think is true, my parents were killed by my former slave master on Tatooine".

    Naboo

    Fuh smiled widely as his master's full craziness was brought to the conversation. He thought she was really one of the only dependable people in the galaxy. You can pretty much always depend on Tiana being crazy, you can't do that as much with other people. With other people int he galaxy there always seems to be this overhanging facade that dwarfs any truths that they may expose. Sure Tiana had other parts to herself that seemed a little more driven in certain areas, but each of us has a good side and a bad side. A Jedi that claims to be infallible and pure is most certainly hiding skeletons in his closet and a Sith that claims to be utterly mad and destructive just might keep a teddy bear by his pillow. Arclight looked about the plains though before seeing Tiana's hand brushing his attention further to the picnic before him. He was scoping around because for some reason he thought they were being followed and e was a little duty driven. He was a bit interested in moving off of Naboo, but it really isn't everyday that you run into someone having a picnic in the middle of a meadow; much less an accommodating person that is willing to share it with you. So, un-equipping the swords at his hips, Arclight set them aside and joined the two ladies as they ate and talked. "Thank you Emily" Arclight said as he reached for what looked to be another sandwich. His large hands seemed to dwarf its small packaging, but it was refreshing having something to eat after all that time.

    Fuh's gaze, as he and Tiana continued their walk, was slightly interrupted by something in the road. At first Fuh was tempted to ignore the rather small disturbance on the road, but upon further inspection it was actually a woman preparing a picnic in the middle of the meadow. She wasn't a large obstacle and easy to walk around, but Fuh's curiosity was tested. The air around him whipped at his bare ears and something told him approaching the woman wouldn't be a bad idea. Judging how Tiana and Fuh's course brought them right through the middle of her picnic, Fuh steered himself before breaking what looked to be a fairly nice basket and what would assuredly have been a nice picnic. Trying to remain at least somewhat polite, Fuh stopped a few feet from the picnic blanket and stared into the woman's mixed eyes with his own blue as she seemed to stare right back. "Hello" Fuh said in a very curt response, his natural voice resonating in a rather low, but cool tone, "my name is Arclight. I will let my master introduce herself if the need pleases her, but I am curious as to who you are." Fuh looked away for a moment, but noticed that she was watching him closely, "as it seems you are of me." Fuh's three swords gleamed in the sunlight as he was sure they would, but he hoped that his armaments wouldn't set the woman on edge.

    Naboo

    Fuh's dreams were translucent but conflicted as it seemed months drifted by. He could see his friends and family killed before him, but then why weren't their bodies left in the town? Was the Slave master trying to cover it up or was it a memory conjured by his mind due to the harshness of the previous environment he suffered? The haze did lift though and as Fuh regained his strength it seemed that the chaotic zone had worked itself out. Fuh could now see his master as she was; she seemed a little chipper and given how creepy she felt earlier Fuh was a little shaky about that, but something about her seemed brighter. The large figure of Fuh pushed himself further from the ground to find that his leg had fallen asleep after all that time, but he listened as his master talked to him about choices; paths that would inevitably take Fuh into what might be a brighter future. Her little statement about mechanics seemed to push a smile on Fuh's face even though it appeared she was serious when she said it, but something tugged at the back of his mind. Something, barely even recognizable as a human voice, whispered into his mind, "kill her". Fuh looked for a moment at Tiana in all her crazy glory and although she had inflicted horror upon him it was all to learn what she had to teach. Clearly the Sith embraced dark paths that, even though Fuh could handle them, scared the living hell out of him. Yet that was the point wasn't it? Fear... A powerful tool, but what would Fuh have to gain by killing Tiana senselessly? She was cute, she was funny, she was crazy and a little psycho at times, but that was no reason for her to die. So, like the darkness he experienced before, Fuh suppressed the rather annoyingly evil whisper in his heart and walked at a fairly even pace behind Tiana, brushing the dirt off of his clothes and occasionally scratching at his beard. It was a while before he spoke to her, but after a bit of awkward silence he poked in slight input as to her previous question. His answer carried with it a great deal of thought and he felt as if it was the right thing for him to do right now. He had somewhat of a difficult time saying it, but he managed to let it out slowly as they walked. "I suppose I would like to explore both sides. I mean, I tend to hold on to relatively peaceful acts, but I will let people know if they are in my way through any means necessary. The Sith seem to draw too much from darkness and the Jedi too much from the light. I figure if I was to learn more about each side and figured a way to take advantage of both I may have a better time of finding something for me. Instead of one who thinks lawfully or one that thinks chaotically, I really feel like I want to remain somewhere in the middle." Arclight took a rather long pause as he looked around the beautiful scenery before him, letting his blue eyes continue their stroll about the area and keeping an eye out for cities, but he continued his speech at a fairly moderate tone, "I figure you can't really understand everything about the force until you approach both angles. Granted I'd rather not be like the Jedi that resulted in the death of one of my relatives, but I'd like to be a peacekeeper or the person that brings to light bad things in the world whether the law has anything to do with it or not. While I wouldn't want to embrace death, emotion and darkness, becoming one of the Sith. I would like to know that I can bring an end to those who need to die. To be a hero, but not be glorified by the amount of people I kill or the people I bring mercy to, but by the amount of 'right' that is done; justice that doesn't necessarily stem from a law book." Fuh's feelings were mixed on the issue and he was still thinking it through, but he really liked where the speech was going. "You can't have one order without the other and to understand both would be valuable to anyone who hopes to use the force. I guess though", Fuh said as he paused again, "if I had to start with something. I think I would rather start with Jedi first. I think the Sith trials will take a great deal out of me and I just want take a break after that. About the whole mechanics thing though, I am sure we will find someone in the next city that will know a thing or two"
  17. Arclight's Character Sheet Identity [!ident] Real Name: Fuh'drakuhn A.K.A: Fuh/Arclight Homeworld: Tatooine Species: Human Physical Description [!dscrp] Age: 25 Height: 6' Weight: 245lbs (most of it muscle: build: bulky) Hair: Dark Brown Eyes: Dark Blue Gender: Male Facial Hair: He has a rather thick Vandyke beard/mustache that shines the same color as the hair on his head. Birthmarks/Skin deformities: He has a cross birthmark on his right hand and he bears many lash like scars on his back. Equipment [!equip] Clothing or Armor: Casual wear: a roughed up Ubese jacket showing having heavy scars, heavy cargo pants sporting a few oil stains and Military grade boots relatively clean - a white wife beater, dog tags and a slick big buckle belt. Combat wear: Family heirloom: Father: A hand- me- down set of what would appear to be old reinforced composite armor. The metal of the armor is silver in sheen and heavy to bear and once united generates a faint but withering plasma shield that can block some blaster bolts before the impact actually reaches the armor itself. (This is the reason that the armor's eyelets and under layer glows blue when connected) Also joined, the armor was meant to be used by people of the force. When the armor is worn as a whole it can help focus Force powers as would a kasha crystal to a Cerean. Weapon: Vibroblades - Ole Reliable and Sputnik - Are swords that go back to the days when Arclight was with his parents. Arclight's parents could never really spare too much time, due to the slave labor inflicted upon them, but time and time again they would try and teach Fuh the art of the sword. One day, while Arclight (known as Fuh back in the old days) was out playing around, he noticed a ruckus coming from a few yards away and saw that the daughter of his owner was being hurt. Although Fuh saw nothing to gain from this at the get go, Fuh had always been a nice kid, so using a stick nearby he managed to scare the thugs away saving the girl from a great deal of pain. Needless to say the timid yet strangely attractive young woman was very grateful and told her father. Seeing this act of redemption in one of his slaves drew upon the slave master's vague yet fleeting Eye. However that was all the evil beast would spare. The little girl Fuh saved however, managed to smuggle a few swords from her father's trophy room. The swords she had taken, although proving a bit dangerous to sneak away, were eventually given to Fuh and his family to keep as a reward for saving her life. This is also when Fuh began to discover a sudden mutual attraction to the Slave Master's daughter. Justicar ”“ is a two handed vibro claymore given to him by a good friend before Fuh was sent away for punishment. (In jail his weapons were taken away anyway) This weapon held the envy of Fuh for a great deal of time, because after his parents started teaching him how to wield any blade aside from a lightsabre, he had long kept eyes on his friend Iril's Two Handed Vibro-Claymore. Although he couldn't carry the sword, due to his clear like of size and muscle at the time, he didn't really care. He heard that Iril's dad had gone through the trouble to enforce the blade to the point that it was impossible to penetrate with a lightsabre and Iril often gloated that he would kill a jedi with it. Why Iril's father would bother giving his son a tool of destruction so early in his life Fuh never knew, but he figured it was for the same reason that his parents had taught him fighting skills. One day though, while Iril was out, Fuh was allowed to tool around with the sword and noticed that it was very ornate in design and how although it was very heavy, it had felt stable almost secure in his hands. It felt like he was meant to wield it and although Fuh didn't know it at the time, in a few years he would possess the Claymore. When Fuh was being taken to a detention camp for something that he had not done, Iril felt guilty that his friend was getting the blame for something he'd been responsible for. So, in return for not snitching on him, Iril gave Fuh the Claymore which would later be called Justicar. Common Inventory: - 2 Neck pieces: He wears dog tags at all times, showing proof of the time he served in a Tatooinian detention cell. He also wears a cross that symbolizes his family crest. (He bears the same mark on his right hand) - His Equipment: Armor (conditional: he doesn't carry his armor everywhere unless he's wearing it)/Weapons and scabbards/clothing, etc - The lighter of a prisoner: the lighter he found in his cell the first day he was thrown in. Over time he has engraved a subtle cross into its fading metal. - Harnesses for his swords (Back and hip Harnesses) - Canteen - A slave driver's whip - Fading Rations Faction Information [!factn] Force User/ Force Sensitive Alignment: True Neutral Current Faction Affiliation: On the line between Jedi and Sith Current Faction Rank: N/A History: [!hstry] Force Side: Wavering Trained by: Tiana Calthye Trained who: N/A Known Skills: Adept Sword fighting: due to his training with swords as a boy, Arclight is fairly adept with sword use, but his skills are no where near a master level in sword fighting, because not only is a large piece of his sword art from lightsabre forms, but he had to learn a decent amount on his own. Resourceful/tactically minded: This may not be considered much of a skill, but Arclight was really the brains behind the prison break and could see things as they played out. He wasn't a fortune teller, but he was pretty good at reading situations and knowing what he would need to do in order to succeed. Background: Childhood -0- As a simple slave boy of Tatooine, Fuh was well regarded among his village as the "do gooder", "the can't go wrong kid" however, the other kids weren't necessarily the same. The good deeds Fuh did around town earned him the somewhat snide recognition of his slave master and in time, a few gifts from people in the city. These gifts were mostly in the form of money for his family, but other baubles were also given to help them along. The sudden interest in Fuh did draw envy from the other kids, but being the bad eggs they were, they naturally would not be seen in the same light. His parents were veteran mercenaries from wars past and knew styles of the sword from Jedis that had taught them. Of course, Fuh's parents used Vibroblades in place of lightsabres due to the fact that they weren't Jedi themselves, but they made due just the same. They passed this knowledge on to their son for self-defense, and did not think that he would really need it, but their nerves were constantly on edge. The envy brought upon by Fuh's good deeds made Fuh a fairly unpopular person among the children of the small village, but he didn't really care. He had his own friends. Ciara, the daughter of his slave master, and Iril the son of a local weapnsmith, but aside from that he wasn't really highly regarded amongst the children... The Accident -1- Upon peaceful ground a little rain must fall”¦ Although Fuh's childhood was fairly blissful, something bad was bound to happen. The only downside was that it was something that would change Fuh's life forever. The day his owner's house exploded. One day Ciara, Iril and Fuh were all playing at Ciara's house and Iril, noticing a rather interesting thing on the ground was messing with it while they played. They were about 10 years old or so, so they were able to think for themselves, but they had not realized that what Iril was messing with would eventually trigger a gas fire within Ciara's house until it actually happened - and it only went down from there. When the fire started Ciara screamed, Iril sprinted away after falling back, and Fuh followed. The only thing that held Fuh back was that Iril got stuck in the coiling of what he was messing with and couldn't get away. Fuh, seeing his distress, fell back and helped his friend get loose and was unfortunately the last one out. He could see Ciara and Iril running from the site, but he could also see the immense fire that engulfed his owner's house and knew that someone had to take the blame”¦ For the good of his friend's safety and health, he took the blame. His owner saw the damage and let's just say infuriated didn't even begin to cover this man's emotion of pure crimson rage. He immediately dismissed everything good that Fuh had ever done, and sent Fuh away to the nearest detention camp. He was the only person around who had proof of the accident, the only one who came clean with ”œhis”

    ((My Armor has been off since we left the ship btw )) The momentary success relieved Fuh as his fatigue grew; Fuh's eyes blinked subtly as the sweat continued to dry upon his face under the cool breeze of the Nabooian air. His mind wasn't ready for the imperative focus required to use the force, because he had too many things on his mind; Fuh needed practice. Tiana seemed to be talking about something though; it seemed that she was praising him, but underneath her praise lurked a secondary if not creepy feeling. Her presence appeared closing towards him as he continued to kneel upon the ground and a strange sensation sparked him as her fingers touched his skin. An explosion of insecurity, loss... horror, fear and delusion clouded his mind as his vision was once again plunged into darkness, but this time it appeared that the rest of the world went with him. The entire world in his eyes had been plunged into a hellish freak nightmare of great proportion. The scene was so unreal that Fuh could barely believe what his eyes comprehended as Tiana's already darkened eyes burnt into her sockets and left merely coals. There they were though, their hiding place blown, Arclight could now see the mysterious benefactors behind her polar attitudes. They peered at Fuh with the same darkened eyes, but each carried their own aura. One appeared almost angelic; the only spit of light in this hellish shadow while the other stood there and bled. He could see their forms play upon his sight with waving uncertainty, as if they were blurs upon the edge of his vision. Fuh didn't feel it would help him, but he tentatively rose to his full height within the plume of shadow. From standing, his mind pushed toward inevitable denial as it tried to conceive of the raping, thieving and ultimately acts of pure darkness that began to trump any hope Fuh had at regaining his sense of reality. Had all of these things truly happened on Naboo? Something struck Fuh though, as he stood amongst the chaos, fully taken by the fury of the moment. His body became a shadow too within the new subtle reality he had been involuntarily drawn into, but something in his mind continued to flourish... One thought pierced through the dark cloud of his mind and became his driving force. He laid his eyes, for what it was worth, upon his now demon-like teacher, her eyes of coal piercing his faded blue irises into the very depths of his dark pupils. Her mouth moved, as it had before, telling him to replicate a pattern she made with rocks that she had thrown into the air. She pushed it further with a sort of time limit to her request, but for the time Fuh ignored it as he registered the shape and tried to pick it out within his consciousness. With crude indifference, Fuh tried as he might to conjure enough energy to pull the already floating gravel back into the same pattern, but the harshness of the air pushed against his senses and his thoughts. Once again though, a single thought flourished. It was small and weak, but it had been left for him to read within the confines of his consciousness. As an avatar of himself, he walked further toward a dim but brimming light within his mind; the cruelty of the world around him had been thoroughly exposed and the sorrow was weighing heavily upon the footfalls of his mental avatar, but once he reached the light he was sure all could be explained. What he found though wasn't as liberating at first glance as he had thought it would be. All that was set before him was a quote; it seemed his mind was full of them, but this quote seemed oddly familiar. "Pursue your own path; do what you have to, to get what you need; pursue what is right for you regardless of what others think. Embrace the good and the bad, taking what comes at you. In the end all you have is yourself... " It was an interesting thing to swallow for sure... Something he couldn't even remember saying, but was oddly floating through his mind at the time. It was a fairly selfish idea, but something seemed right about it to him; something about the quote hearkened back to his childhood and how when he was faithful to his friends and family all it got him was jail time. Sure he could help others in helping himself, but that didn't mean he had to. The quote offered something that seemed to have been relinquished from him in this world and that was freedom. He had been a prisoner of his mind, but no longer. looking at the stones mentally he strove to use the power of the dead just as he had the power of the living, ignoring yet embracing the harsh screams piercing the fading air; ignoring yet embracing the flecks of ash floating past his face and into his breathing; ignoring yet embracing the corruption that befell those around him and getting down to the task he had set before him. The ends justify the means Keeping his mind focused as he had attempted before, was slightly difficult, he noticed a slight difference. When the light of the world had been all around him it was almost too easy to absorb - almost to the point of explosion - but this energy seemed slower to gather and a bit more potent. The energies were analogous to each other however and served the same purpose, so it was a great deal easier, once he had the energy, to use it this time. The origins of the power felt murky along his long mental fingertips as he imitated the same actions he had before when moving the other rocks. He was surprised to find that the rocks actually maintained their shape in the air and he smiled with a satisfaction as he gazed upon his work. The cockiness that had appeared upon Fuh's face quickly vanished though, as he stood stock still staring down his master. He knew full well that this apparition may have been the real Tiana in this world, but that this apparition was merely a construct within reality. This simulation had taught him some lesson, but as of now it was merely that; a lesson that needed to be taught but had already been learned and as such proved no actual purpose. Through the anger and hate ridden atmosphere of the World that Fuh was trying with all his might to rupture, he became witness to a rip from his own mind that appeared as an angelic version of himself in full armor, wielding his large claymore valiantly. Something that surprised him though, was an apparition that had accompanied it... A creepy looking apparition with stark red eyes in black armor emerged from his body, wielding his dual swords. It was a part of himself he had never known, but something he had to admit within his mind. A trial of his own was set before him. All his life, Fuh had been considered a brave and valiant soul, so it seemed no challenge to accept the side of him that shone with a brilliant light, but something on the tip of his mind had grown his curiosity tenfold towards the ominous spirit. The foreboding apparition at his side, although similar, was once again something he had never even seen before or felt. With the slight nod of his head, the shadow plunged head first straight back into Fuh's body. The essence of the construct drew from Fuh a fury of which he had never felt before. His mind surged with memories that he had suppressed for years; memories that he forgot existed... and one memory that wasn't even his. It seemed that the same person, who had sent Fuh to jail, profited from his arrest, destroyed his family as well as the rest of the village patrons and fled planet. He saw it as if it was from.... Her eyes... From the depths of his body came an utter growl that gradually rose from his body. The essence of his fury rose from the very ground itself and surged through every vein, through every limb, and exploded through his mouth as a loud yell echoing through the spacious yet vacant alternate dimension. The veins in his throat pulsated and power surged through his body; his arm shot out and the rocks that had fallen to the ground scattered rapidly within the air... His yell surged through the air once more as it seemingly levitated within the air. The chaotic episode seemed like it was going to last longer than expected, but like an explosion the episode slowly petered out, taking the miserable ambiance with it. Then, as the depressing landscape once again turned to its green luster, Fuh feinted heavily to the ground....

    "Well the question is does anybody really understand themselves Tiana?" said Fuh as he let her speak. Fuh's eyes continued to scan the horizon grazing over each and every surface as he went. However, as he focused closer and harder upon each object he could "see" it a little better. Tentatively Fuh closed his eyes and tried looking again... Giving him much the same feeling he had before as he wriggled on the ground. Hmmm... The life seems apparent within each and everything here, the living force breathing within every pore of the planet itself. thought Arclight peacefully to himself as he listened to Tiana with an idol ear. Her self deprecation was calming as it seemed obvious she was back to her own dialogue; unaided by either hands... As he heard the sound of gravel moving though, Fuh moved his head toward the noise; rustling his brown hair slightly within the transit. It seemed that Tiana had moved the gravel into a rather odd shape on the ground, but just as soon as it had formed, it fell to the ground. Fuh looked slightly confused, retreating his blue eyes to Tiana's dark ones, but Tiana, as if she could read his mind, told him to put it back in that same shape. He could only guess that she wanted him to put it back in the same way she had. The odd image stuck within his eyes for a little and preyed upon his consciousness slightly as he looked toward the gravel time and time again. At first reaction however Fuh seemed to reject, bringing his strong muscled arm up as if to cast the request aside, but he remembered that she was his teacher. His eyes rested upon the rocks on the ground. His blue orbs plowing into the small gravel pieces trying to tell them through his thoughts the shape he wanted them to take, but it didn't seem to work. Fuh paused for a moment as he looked around. Then, as he had done before, he sat in no real determined position upon the cool grass and earth of Naboo, feeling the lush environment beneath him. Then, as the afternoon breeze blew, its majestic tendrils wafting Fuh's Hair about, Fuh closed his eyes gently. He felt the breeze filter through his body; he heard the sounds of nature around him as it all left. Fuh had cleared his mind before, but it had been a while and became increasingly difficult to remove some of his memories from his conscious thinking pattern. However, after a few minutes of sweating and trying upon the ground floor, Fuh's mind was completely cleared except for the image of the shape he had wanted the gravel to be, and the gravel itself as it set upon the white ground of Fuh's mind. Then, as if with proverbial fingers, Fuh tried to pick the rocks up with his mind as Tiana had, but as the vision came to life it seemed too far from his reach. He could not grasp what he saw within his mind and therefore failed. So, determined to succeed at least once, Fuh kept his seat and kept staring absently upon the gravel with closed eyes. What level of comprehension was required for this feat? Fuh thought to himself. Maybe... Fuh's mind drifted to his visions within the solace of only his own consciousness and what power had driven them. The force seemed a stealthy, but valued benefactor within his exploits, so maybe the same principles would apply here. As if it were some kind of mongrel dog, Fuh subconsciously prayed to his mind to obey him, but it did not recede its stubborn prevention of his attempts at mimicking Tiana. It seemed his mind could not be won and hope was inevitably lost, but words rang true within his mind that sang to him his tried and true proverb that had kept him going for years. "Keep faith and pride in yourself and help others do the same, for if freedom can't be won then we are all surely prisoners of ourselves". A saying passed to him by his mother when he was little and something he would never forget; words that meant much to him but only reminded him of his pain. He hadn't a thought as to where his family was and had lost them through the grasp of time and nature themselves. Arclight started to sob slightly to himself and as tears rolled from his face the emotional veracity within him seemed to excite an energy he had only played upon before. Fuh moved toward it slightly within his mind and tried to bring more in; to bring more of the light into the dark caverns of his mind. The force of his pull broke off too much though as Fuh's mind filled with the energy rapidly and chaotically. The streams of light only making it harder to concentrate and instead sending him into dire straits trying to fix the mess he caused. His head pounded and focus dwindled. It took five more minutes though before he could wrangle the energy down to a suitable magnitude and even then his head was sweating profusely. Seeing within his mind's eye, the bountiful energy he had just obtained, he touched it with his mental hands, unaware of the beauties that crossed or would cross his mind. At the moment where his fingers met the plasma like substance, Fuh could see the planet and its people; he could see their lives and fears, their jaunts and cheers; he could feel their presence and enjoyed the visions the power had given him for now. He was getting off task however and had yet to do what Tiana asked, so as quick as he could, taking time to let more energy in, he tried to imitate the pattern once more. Fuh focused as carefully as possible upon the gravel and manipulated his energy so as to move them with small force fingers; to nudge them with bright fingers that filled Fuh's every nerve and node”¦ By now, Fuh still had his eyes closed, but once he opened them he found the rocks were arranged in the pattern that Tiana had described. He was covered in sweat and panting heavily”¦

    Arclight's tension released with the re-retrieval of his sight, but his mind was still slightly inherently conflicted. The introduction of several avatars of one Tiana had messed with his brain, even if he couldn't see all three of them he could hear them quite clearly. Fuh questioned his sanity within the silence of his own thoughts, but was quite interested when Tiana said there were three of everyone. Fuh still remained in the spot where Tiana had poked him before, but his expression had changed from incriminatory to thoughtful. His eyes rested upon Tiana's form and he smiled thinking that at least she hadn't been taken away, but something in the back of his mind still bugged him. As Arclight looked toward Tiana and remembered the outlines he had seen earlier, something caught him. Do I have a light and Dark side? Fuh recalled moments of his history, mulling through each emotion he had suffered and could find no instance upon which his dark side was tempted. He was a fairly good kid that could do no wrong until he was accused for a crime he didn't commit - when in all actuality he offered himself up in his friend's stead. Then he was forced into a prison for slaves and isolated his mind from the rest of the world until he broke out. Now where in there had Fuh ever conjured any cursing and/or hateful notion. Arclight sighed deeply, realizing that this mysterious dark conundrum could be solved at a later date. "As to your comment, the Jedi I met years ago was a mindless dogmatic, so that is how I know of them and that is from where I draw my opinion." Arclight said solemnly still staring at what he though was Tiana. He slowly moved to join Tiana; his steps moving at an even rate with his arms to his side. His face looked into the far distance behind her wondering if she was see through, but aside from that, his thoughts had been focused on his previous quandry no matter how much he wanted to drop it. "you are my teacher as it were, so it is up to you I suppose", said Fuh with a stoic smile.

    Naboo

    Arclight's brow furrowed as he tried to conjure feelings that weren't there. He realized his parents were gone, but he had no idea what happened to them. Dead or alive... Sure the Jedi were mindless zealots who would stop at nothing to keep the peace, but was he any better? Were the Sith nothing but Rage mongers that did nothing but Blow up at the slightest moment? Or was there more? Is there a comfortable medium or must I choose a side... Arclight was deeply conflicted and as his eyes were stolen from him once more, he began to focus on the lack of senses... The lack of something, and then he began to realize that Tiana had changed. This wasn't the Tiana he had remembered... This wasn't the kooky girl Fuh met on Hoth... This was someone far more sinister and that so far had just continued to cause him much pain. He looked in the direction of Tiana as his mind caught up with him, but he still saw nothing aside from a deep darkness. He knew she was different”¦ He just knew it. Arclight sat down in a lotus position as his master maliciously murdered a vine, and focused all he could in her direction. Sweat began to roll down his brow and he even considered giving up, but something faint was noticeable after a while. On the edge of his vision, or at least as much as he could see within his head, he noticed two faint outlines of differing color, but they were both in the shape of Tiana. There appeared to be a third but it was even fainter”¦ He was no longer blinded by her beauty and was forced to see that there was actually three Tiana's. He could not understand their nature, but only knew that one of them was the real Tiana; the real woman that he had adored ever since the frozen wastes of Hoth. "You have deceived me Tiana, I cannot show you true anger, for that is not my nature, but neither will I cower to the stupid and redundant dogma that composes the Jedi Order. I have lost things yes, and regardless of my fear I acknowledge that it will happen again in the future for such is the will of fate... I can try to defy fate all I wish, but until I accept it I will but move in circles..." Arclight shook his head silently, ”œHowever, if there is one thing I have learned standing here, dwelling within the caverns of my mind... It is that you are not the real Tiana... That the real Tiana; the one I met in Hoth is being hidden from me”¦" Arclight's face turned stoic and he sighed, ”œIt is but the will of this sith apparition and, was my own for a time that I become one who thrives off of feelings, but not anymore.”
  22. Arclight

    Naboo

    Arclight's shivering form was at the very least exasperated, but he was mad. He was infuriated that he should be made to look like such a fool on the ground; that his so called conscience was nothing but a wise cracking little gnome and to top it all off he was still in mud! His clothes were soaked and heavy as he rolled over onto all fours crawling his way about; his swords had been set aside before blindness so they weren't a bother, but his body still felt lumbering under the weight of the cold water. He didn't want to release his anger because there was something else preventing him from doing so. In the Darkness you feel and see nothing but raw emotions, you may hear the outside world, but it is a mere mockery of the senses you have lost; you may feel the ground, but you are as an apparition for the feeling blows through you with no true grasping effect. Yet through it all; through his aching muscles and anger filled misery there lingered a strong passion towards another. He couldn't let it die so it remained there for later. Tiana had wanted to see anger however as she had poked fun at him from the sidelines; so with what strength he could muster Fuh, in a push up position propelled himself to the ground, grabbed anything he could and pummeled the crap out of it. The object he had procured was a tree nearby and as his painful yet angry yells got louder he pushed on further into the tree leaving a great big hole in the center of it. His cries echoed throughout the swamps and he re-emerged from the opposite side with bleeding hands and bark dust covering his body... "yes I would be comfortable with my g*% d#^$ eyes back... " Arclight said with a grimace...
  23. looking for Beta reader for next chapter... Sure to be a doozy so whoever wants to read for a long time... Lol. I don't think it's that long... It was like 8 pages or so in word though...
  24. Arclight

    Naboo

    Arclight gave no effort to fight her touch and for the moment he could see nothing at all but the Nabooian countryside. A true beauty to behold, but one that would so quickly dissipate as he was cast asunder into a cloudy darkness... He had lost his sight he thought rather childishly and he rather crudely fought outwardly and inwardly to get it back, but all efforts proved futile. He was menaced as to his condition and struggled with himself on the ground for a few minutes. It looked like a prolonged seizure, but at the end he just lied their. He could still hear the vague sounds of Naboo... He could still feel the land around him... All his losses spilled forth and covered the length of his consciousness only sending him into more of an angry tirade like seizure for a decent time... All he could see though was darkness. Arclight, having no previous experience with the force had settled on not fighting whatever it was clouding his vision for their was no way to stop it. He didn't even think the force could do such a thing, but then again he was naive and had not learned its ways yet. However, laying there looking at darkness, it did give him time to think and time to feel and coalesce with the world around him... You haven't lost all your senses, merely that of sight. SO stop acting like a drowning puppy and straighten yourself up... Arclight shook his head in disbelief as a voice emerged from behind the dark visage... He could here it, but didn't know if Tiana could at this point. Nonetheless, he did as he was told and was now sitting in a lotus position, or as best he could not knowing he was now resting in a puddle of mud... First of all, a little late on that front, but Second of all Who are you? and why are you here? Just consider me your proverbial wingman of sorts. I can't really get you girls, but I can serve as your conscience in dire need situations. I can also be considered as your sens of Humor at some points... Yet let's not get carried away. You can call me Fluhnicht... Very well, well met Fuhnicht now could you kindly tell me what I am supposed to do next? Well... uhh thats not really my job. I am merely here to keep you out of trouble and if you had continued your seizure on the ground you would have: -drawn needless attention from any passers by -looked stupid -bothered yourself with needless gyrations -and overall look stupid... You said look stupid twice though? Yeah, yeah so what of it? I thought it looked really stupid, oh and if you had continued you would have fallen into a swamp and not seen where you were going... yatta yatta yatta... Drowning capische? Got it... wait needless gyra- He felt there was something he wasn't telling Arclight, but with the suddenness he had appeared with, the little conscious drone was gone and he had left behind nothing for Arclight to really think about except the planet, Tiana, and himself... He sat there, rather exasperated from the tiring gyrations he had finished moments before, but he tried his best to focus on anything but himself... He focused on the planet, the planets species, its people... and as soon as he had gone a full circle back to thinking of himself again he began to feel a strange spark of energy... He could feel it all over the planet fluctuating in different ways and areas... He could hear and feel the heartbeats of everyone on the planet... He felt one with the planet... a strange feeling indeed that was interrupted by one single heartbeat... Tiana's... Now for the life of him Tiana kept sprouting up in his mind and he just couldn't focus straight. He didn't want to tell her this because hey who wants to know someone was thinking of them if they aren't exactly in an intimate relationship... It's just weird to the recipient...
  25. Arclight

    Naboo

    Arclight didn't really care honestly. The only thing of the list that really gave him pause was his soul yet he could see no sarcasm in her eyes. He thought of the emptiness it would leave and the hole forever left behind. Yet he would have to learn to get over that. Did he care about dying as he broke from the prison. Did he care about dying when he braved the harsh winterlands that were Hoth? No, because ultimately he had a purpose... He had a goal and he would follow it despite the sacrifices, no matter how dire... He took a few moments before answering though, sitting there with a rather puzzled look and simply said, "yes, that is what I want..." I have seen the dark now show me what true darkness is... What have I to live or feel for when there is nothing much for me left in this universe except myself?
