“I assume I would be correct in addressing Padawan Aronoke,” said a voice, interrupting Aronoke’s stream of thought and making him jump. Poor Master Caaldor had gone through a great deal of both danger and bureaucracy on his difficult padawan’s behalf, but it was the bureaucracy that seemed to irk him most. Aronoke had to smile, thinking of the sour expression on his Master’s face as he told Aronoke to go ahead without him. Master Caaldor would be along later, having been detained by last minute discussions with the Jedi Council. The Triphonese Griffon was awaiting the departure of the expedition to Zynaboon, and Aronoke was on his way to board it. Only the most important vessels, ships on missions of extreme importance to and from the Temple, docked up there. Master Caaldor had overseen his attunement to the previous weapon, and he was certain he would have no difficulties with this one.Īronoke reached the elevator banks that led up to the landing bays maintained especially for the Jedi Temple’s use and thumbed the controls. Within himself he was confident – this was the second lightsaber he would wield that was not of his own creation. Tochar would not wish you to suffer a mishap due to your unfamiliarity with his lightsaber.”Īronoke nodded and assured the quartermaster that he would take due care. Be certain that you take time to meditate on the crystal before you use it – it is important to establish a strong connection through the Force. “He would not have wanted it to remain unused and forgotten in the vaults of the Temple. “Tochar would be pleased that you chose his weapon, Padawan,” Master Gondramon had said. It had belonged to a hapless padawan who had fallen to his death in an elevator shaft. The quartermaster who had assigned the weapon had also told Aronoke its history. Any Jedi might be called upon to act in any capacity. These were only guidelines, Aronoke knew. Yellow lightsabers, like the one he carried now, were typically the weapons of Jedi who were highly trained in combat and tactics. Jedi whose roles were scholarly or diplomatic, like Master An-ku and Master Insa-tolsa, had green lightsabers. Jedi like Master Altus and Master Caaldor, who were active agents in the field, wielded blue blades. The colour bore a relation to a Jedi’s skills and his role within the order. Blue like Master Altus’s he hoped, but he knew that the choice was not merely aesthetic, nor entirely left to chance. Aronoke wondered what colour the blade of his own lightsaber would be, if he ever finally travelled to Ilum to craft it. He had taken care to choose a weapon similar to the one he had lost, but it was more slender and a paler shade of yellow. Aronoke strode along the hallways of the Jedi Temple, his bag slung over one shoulder and his new lightsaber clipped at his side.
