Force Training room (open Rp)

[Aintaru]

Bare footsteps were carefully taken upon the marble stone floors of the temple. Even though she had only been at the temple for a couple of weeks, it was surprising how much she could read and learn in single nights. She had refused for the longest time to take any Force training classes, mostly because of what she was and what she knew. But such wouldn’t keep her too far away when another sensitive wished to seek a deeper connection with the Force.

Alinara quietly walked among the corridors in admiration and curiosity, but with a task at hand as the cold marble chilled her skin. Following the path she was told, she carefully listened to any whispers the Force brought her way. With calm and ease, she looked upon the doors to the training room and knocked once with the back of her right hand. Waiting for a response that didn’t come, she cracked the door open to ‘see’ what she already knew. From what she could tell, two of the vital signs in the room were familiar.

“I have come for Zeke,” Alinara announced her disruption, bowing her head courteously to those in the room. Lifting her head slowly, she faced the direction that he was found and preceded two steps further into the room in order to let the door close behind her. She waited patiently at that spot, whether he decided to come and talk to her in hushed tones or whether she announced it to the whole class was up to him.

“Malice has told me of your talents… and your wishes have been brought to me through the Force. I am no master, nor do I have the title. But, I can teach what I know with the advantages I possess.”

'Looking' back to the rest of the class, Alinara's voice was welcoming and soft. "I am also here for Hoshi, if you wish to come." Smiling gently, she took a small pause. "Malice had requested of me to ask if you would like some of my guidance as well. He has spoken highly of the both of you and does not wish me to take much of your time from Kurosaki. I would only be a tutor for the time being but a foundation for Zeke."  

[Master Ariana Lucinus]

Ariana strode down the corridors, marveling at what Ryke had found. The temple here must have been lost for unknown eons, and yet the foundation and everything else had not decayed at all. As she walked toward the Force Training Hall, carrying her few possessions in a duffel bag in her left hand, she allowed the fingers of her right hand to brush the wall. The contact sent a jolt through her awareness, realization hit her then, the entire temple had been constructed with the Force. Conflicting spots of dark and light danced in each of the stones in perfect balance. Whoever had constructed this ancient academy long ago had understood Ryke's philosophy to the letter. Thinking on this as the door slid open, she was taken aback by what she saw. There were very few padawans here, a room that should, on most occasions, be filled with students and raucous noise. She had come here expecting to find a score of individuals practicing to levitate objects, block blaster fire while blindfolded, or even calm the minds of angry animals, but not this. The room was quiet, the few students inside, subdued, and Ariana felt a pang of sorrow pass through her heart. Catching the last bit of what the women before her was saying, Ariana smiled, pleased she would not be alone in the daunting task that Ryke had set for her. She wondered after what had happened to the Jedi Master that had formerly taught these students, but decided that it would not do for her to be so impolite. Sensing that the woman before her knew of her arrival, Ariana stepped forward, bowing as the woman turned. Noticing the mask that hid her eyes, Ariana smiled again, curiosity sprang into her mind but she discarded it in favor of tact. "Salutations, My name is Ariana Lucinus...I don't mean to intrude, but I was made to understand that I would be taking over courses in Force Training due to the absence of a certain Master Kurosaki. I wasn't aware I would be receiving assistance in these matters, but I must admit, I appreciate it. It definitely makes the idea less daunting." Ariana paused, assessing the woman, her Echani heritage and training picking up on the subtle factors of the woman's stance, bearing, and position. The female Miraluka could fight, and well, but Ariana could tell that her true skill lay in less physical arts. If this was to be the person assisting her in becoming acclimatized to teaching a class the ways of the Force, Ariana could not be more pleased. Miraluka were rare, the fact that the Force had crossed the paths of this woman and Ryke was fortunate indeed. "May I ask your name? I'm new to the temple and only just arrived. I had to take 3 passenger ships and 4 private shuttles to make it here, Ryke hadn't told me it was so far beyond the outer rim. It took me a fair bit of time to convince a pilot to travel out this way, even with a Jedi onboard. We had to detour around the Hoth system too...I heard plenty of whispers about how there had been an orbital confrontation between republic and separatist forces, though I am not sure it was as simple as that...I felt the echoes from the deaths of many force sensitives there."

"No, it is a pleasure to meet you Ariana..." Alinara bowed her head politely. "I am Alinara. But if the new installation has arrived, then I take my leave and all teachings to you. I was not told that a new rank would arrive. And I'm sure the hatchlings would like a 'master' for their teaching." Nodding again to everyone in the class, she turned to face Zeke and Hoshi once more. "If you have further questions afterward, or are still loking for your foundation in the force," she directed the last part to Zeke. "Ask and I shall answer." She Turned and smiled once more to Ariana. "I will be in the gardens if needed. I myself am new to this temple, but I must find it's will to teach me first." With her final words, she bid farewell and left the room as she had come.

Feeling better that the class had a new intructor, she did not regret coming to 'try' and help the others.
