Welcome to Gaia! ::

Madoon grimaced "You must be stronger than me... You must resist temptation, and besome greater than I am." He punched in the code, and it opened into a large room. It was decorated with many small alcoves. Within these alcoves were statues of all the greatest Sith, all the way back to Darth Vader. Some of the statues were on small rises, each with a lightsaber attached to a plaque, displaying their names. In the very middle of the room, was a rainbow colored holocrom. The walls were of white-washed marble, and green plants grew down the walls. A small brook ran in symbols on the floor, making a slight gurgling noise.

"This is the epitome of the Dark Side of the Force, a tribute to the Sith, and to true power." He lowered his head in reverence, and walked to every statue in turn. "Each statue is a medium for the Force. Do you notice something odd about the Sith?"

"They are from all different planets. Look!" He ,motioned to the plaques. "Coruscant, Naboo, Manaan, Calamari, even Endor Surprisingly! Listen well, my young apprentice, this will be your final lesson before you are a Sith Master." He continued walking, until the statue of a tall Sith, a Earthian, one most sinister looking, the first of the Earth Sith.

"There is never a background you must come from to be powerful in the Force. There is never a place where it wells up so that every creature born there will be touched by it, and able to wield the Force, in fact only one Sith has been able to breed more Force-wielders. you must bring multiple components, some of the Mitochondria from one world, with Genetics of that world, seed of a Jedi, body of a warrior." He raised his hands with each set of words, his voice rising into a crescendo of power. "And most of all, it takes the diligence only that training can bring." He lowered his hands. "You have all but one of these: Training." He turned, and set his hands on the plaque for the human Sith. "You must not learn only from one master, only from one point of view, but train in the ways of the galaxy, for what is the Force if it is not the galaxy?"

"Incorrect." He smiled softly, his expressions seemed to lighten. "Only the ancient Sith decided in black and white. What you need is training yes. From the Galaxy yes. What you truly need is the galaxy. You must become one with it." He put his arms on his shoulders. "To keep from becoming corrupt with the teachings of the Sith, you must use the galaxy and treat it as a member of your body, and it cannot be a subject of your rule." He reached his hands upwards. "We are the newest branch of the Force, and for it to truly become new, you must do this one task. Do you know what this task is?"

"It is really quite simple my student. You must find this answer by yourself. If I give you the answer you will not learn." He came to another Sith, one famous for his tyranny. "Look at him. He conquered many worlds. What must he have done to be so powerful?"

Once the masters filed out, Exore walked up to Arak Jedo " So? How did it go?"

" Oh! uh.... to travel the galaxy?" drakonis asked quickly.

" when I am a Jedi Master, I hope to relieve as much stress from others as possible" Exore said with a smile. " I've taken on a lot of stress over these years... " Exore looked up " But everytime I feel of the amount of stress that is building on my shoulders, is too heavy to bare.... I realize that there are others who need help with baring their stress, and subconciously....when you help others, your suddenly feel lifted..."
