Jhordaan hummed in encouragement, slightly perplexed how such an insecure child could ever hope to master the way of the Jedi. Camlan was young still, but the basic principles of the Jedi, as Jhordaan understood them, were of rigid self-control and emotional detachment. Camlan didn't seem to be off to a very good start, and Jhordaan wondered why he cared.
Empathy could be a real drag, sometimes.
He turned his thoughts rather forcibly to the Force and the question he'd been asked, "I've seen it; I've been working on reading auras in a more practical environment. And you?"
Over the course of the last several weeks Jhordaan had spent almost every free moment he had prowling the halls, practicing with his sight on passerby. He could sense things more clearly because of it, but he still couldn't see. Occasionally he's glimpse a faint, gossamer thread of something that seemed to surround a person, but that was the extent of it.
It was probably the most frustrating thing he'd ever attempted, but he just had to keep practicing.

Jhordaan hesitated. Failure or success, Jhordaan was a private person--what he had shared with Camlan was more than he did with most--and the prospect of opening up his own mind, willingly, to another person was rather repugnant. His species was naturally empathetic, and he'd learned early to shut out the constant bombardment of emotions; he wasn't in the habit of lowering those shields under any circumstances.
He closed his eyes and reached for the place deep inside himself that connected to the Force, struggling with the link as he tried to reshape the barriers in his mind. He thought of it like a one-way sieve, letting his thoughts, the will he would impress on the Force, through and keeping everything else out. Sweat prickled on his skin, itching its way down the line of his spine.
It clicked into place.
Concentrating on his breathing, Jhordaan calmed his racing heart, exploring the new boundaries he had set and finding himself rather pleased with the result. Feeling more confident, Jhordaan reached out into the void between Camlan and himself.
