 After walking days on end, you come across a large temple. Only the front is visible and the temple seems to be breaking away like sand but yet it doesn't move. You approach the large door and notice a control switch on the right. As you turn the switch the doors slide open.
You proceed down a long, sandstone staircase until you reach an opening. And you are confused. The open is filled with trees, still ponds, and is laden in grass. You look upwords and notice the that walls are made of sandstone and lead up to an opening that reveals the sky and the wind whipping sand around.
You then proceed to walk towards to what seems to be a villa of little wooden houses, until you come to one that seems to be going into one of the walls. A man comes walking out to greet you."Hello and welcome to the Mirage Temple. I am Darth Vicious, and I assume you come here for training in the arts of the Force. You are welcome to stay as long as you like."

Reason for Establishment:
This temple was established for Younglings and Kights alike.
You can come here to strengthen your ability and knowlege of the Force.
Thought some of you have more experience than others, everyone is treated equally here. But that doesn't mean that the training wil be easy.
This place was also established to help students realize their true potential and their places in the force.

He watches as the Youngling comes trudging down the steps, thinking to himself: "I admire his spirit. Comming here without an escort."
Vicious proceeds to the middle of the temple grounds to greet his newly attained student.
"Welcome, Reo. I assume your journey was a long one."
He looks over Reo's sand covered body.
"I admire your bravery of comming here on foot without an escort..."
Vicious quickly has a scornful look on his face.
"But bravery can only carry you so far."
He then motions his hand towards a little villa.
"Go and get yourself cleaned up, and put on a new pair robes. All necessities can be found in your dorm."

He approaches Reo.
Well, before you start your training, tell me. What do you feel growing inside you. The power of Control, or of Sense?
[[You start out with five points you must distribute between Control and Sense. Each must at least have one point to it for now.
Example: Control: 2 Sense: 3]]

"Alright then, lets gets started shall we. Follow me.
Vicious walks towards the ponds, and stops by a mechanized alter.
He waits for Reo and motions for him to walk up to the edge of one of the ponds.
He then presses a button on the alter, and almost immediatly a mechanical arm rises from the middle fo the pond holding an orbs no bigger than an orange.
"Do you know what that is"
Reo shakes his head.
"That is a modified Fyrs'c Resonance orb. A powerful element used to send low frequecy wave signals through deep waters. Normal if anyone were to stand within a parsec of one, there organs would turn into mush, but luckly I was able to obtain a faulty one."
He goes and stands next to Reo.
"These make great Force catalysts. As every child of the Force know, the force is like a large pond. Everythig inside it has an effect on it. Every move we make, every decision we decide, all affects the Force and send a wave affect that effects everything else within it."
He heads back to the alter and presses the same button again to lower the orbs back into the pond.
"And of course we cannot hear these waves, but we can feel them. And with this orb, submerged within water, it can create an amplified feeling of this."
He looks at Reo, then back at the pond.
"What I want you to do is sit in the pond, with the water up to your stomach, meditate, focus all of your thoughts on the orb, and visualize it in your mind usuaing the waves that it gives of as a guide."
"I will return tomorrow to check on your progress."
((Sry, I gtg. I have to get up early tomorrow))

*as he sits in the pond with his eyes closed, he begins to think of the instructions he was given, Reo tries to stop thinking, but the more he tries the harder it was, frustrated he takes another breath and tries again*

*Reo with eyes closed slowly manages to clear his mind in short bursts, his breathing becomes slow, his heart rate begins to slow also, he begins to see a flash of disturbing images....His eyes open and once again realizes that he has failed, but in a bitter mental game with himself he forces himself to shut his eyes immediately, and so he does*

*As he close his eyes, his mind has once again been clouded with wonders of previous incidences, Reo concentrates on his breathing and slowly these clouded thoughts begin to dissipate as once again he begins to try and meditate
