[quote][b]“NO!”[/b][/quote]
Talija’s ears twitched upon the sound of the short burst of terror that echoed throughout the prison complex— a voice she recognized. Despite being only an hour out of her own experience with her own nightmares she knew it well, though the fact the tone and timbre of the voice was familiar to the Sephi girl. Her mind went back to her Sith “greeter” and the videos she had shown her in some way to inspire a reaction; anger, despair, fear— the machinations of the Sith were clear to her in that moment. Talija took a light breath as she looked at the direction of the voice as one name rung out in her mind: [i]Xid?[/i] 

If her mind was not deceiving her and the Force was clear then it was as she thought. But it had been so long… to meet again in chains was something that felt out of place to her despite it logically making much sense given what she had seen and what situation both Padawans had been in. This was [i]war[/i] after all. Still Talija did as she did, reacting with the Force itself as her feet moved her past the central chamber and into the other room. The Force spoke out to her to do such. She remained quiet as she stepped through the doorway, her narrow eyes widening as she looked through the darkness of the Sith dungeon. 

She couldn’t think of words, she couldn’t express them. She felt a hollow uncomfortable feeling— not fear, not rage, not sadness; just absence of reaction. Perhaps she felt that this situation was a product of what was expected or maybe it was simply that she was still shocked by all of it being true— for the Sith to have gotten victory over this many Jedi with this simple prison ship… she hated the way her mind worked sometimes. She wished she could’ve had abundant emotions that they would overflow her logic and faith. She felt like a droid in situations like this.

She finally took a light breath as she took another step as a reassured smile poised her lips for a second. 

“Xid.” She paused, for a second. “I thought I felt your presence through the force.”
