[b][color=salmon]”We have been together long enough for me to trust your judgement on such things.”[/color][/b] Hirani said simply as she joined him at the console, her voice having regained most of it’s normal function. She could pilot her fighter and smaller vehicles well enough, but a vessel of the [i]Corellian Dawn[/i] was beyond her skill. [b][color=salmon]”So long as we don’t crash and burn along with the ship, I’ll be happy.” [/color][/b]

The healer worked to make herself as neutral as possible and that task had significantly increased in difficulty since she became bonded with Bocri. Jedi are taught not to be ruled by their emotions and to improve themselves with knowledge and training, amongst an overall theme of being a guardian of peace. How one went about fulfilling that role was based on an individual’s skill and affinity with the force. The twi’lek peaked at the monitor as it showed some functions she was familiar with and a lot more that she was not. 

[b][color=salmon]”Is there… anything you need me to do?”[/color][/b] she asked meekly, weary of the answer she would receive. She often found herself willing to put herself outside of her comfort zone for Bocri and the only other individual she had bonded with to this degree was her former master, a door which she shut tight deep within herself to keep the pain of their loss from resurfacing. Later, when they have found a safe place to rest is when she'll allow herself to mourn and process the emotions that she could not help to feel but suppressed in the face of the threat in front of them.

Hirani had a creeping feeling that the trial set before them would test them to their very core. Would they still be able to uphold the Jedi Code or will they loose themselves to the dark side and the suffering that accompanied it?
