Ansil's attention wanders as all youths do. Even as a padawan with a life of discipline, it doesn't change the nature of childish thoughts in young minds. Gazing at Windu's bald head, I wonder if he chooses to wear a bare scalp, he thinks of his own traditional padawan crop cut with two stringy tails. It's kind of... nice and glistening. Maybe I'll wear it that way when I pass my trails.

Suddenly feeling the gaze of the master, Ansil snaps back to attention and nods firmly at Windu. Turning on his heels in an almost stormtrooper mocking fashion, he grabs Blue 6 by the arms, "Come on, let's get you sorted out."

head out to Clone Training Facility

Are you prepared Padawan?

To take a droid to a center? Or for the training afterwards? This must be a trick question...But then again I almost got killed going to get Yoda's takeout at the noodle stand.

"YES", Ancil blasts, "To both."

At the already ghostly empty hall, "HOLY JEDI!", Ansil jumps at the specter that is Mace Windu coming out of the shadows. "Master Windu - where is everyone?"


Rank: 1, Defense: 43%, Protection: 135, Life: 13

Onto the Hall!

"What the bantha does that mean?!" Ansil exclaims and looks at Blue's equally blank face. After a few moments of contemplation, he says "Well I'm not going to figure that out standing around this locker. Come on Blue, let's get you to the Jedi Hall like your friend said."

-unless the holocron say anything else furthere?

Ansil looks at Blue, then leans into the holocron. Asking as if it was Yoda himself that stood before him, incredulously "What am I doing here, Master Yoda?"

"A lot of value!" Ansil grabs the holocron, "But what's it doing here in a noodle shop" He double checks the instructions, making sure he wasn't sent for the table.

"Master Yoda says he'll be on Kashyyyk for a while. Strange he wouldn't take this with him. And it's not art - see?" he puts it to Blue's face.

"The activation mechanism is sealed inside - it can only be turned on by one method"

”I can guess how it can be opened”, Ansil inspects the barrier and turns to Blue, ”But it's utte2rly silly. The master can toss this granite like a coin. I can barely throw an empty garbage can!”

Eventually, Ansil resigns into giving it a try.

-after eating this menu I'm sure, Ansil amuses but keeps his mouth shut as he sees a tentacle moving in the wok. When Ursa reveals the large room, "Whoa..."

"Well he's not exactly mine. I suppose a droid would want to be repaired" he looks at Blue "Right?"

As Ursa begins to leave, "Wait- what? I don't even know why Master Yoda sent me here. Leave me to what?! Hello...?" his shoulders sink, Poodoo

"He's kinda... just tagging along", Ansil omits the details about the firefight earlier. "So what am I doing here? Did Yoda put me up to some dish washing lesson?"

”This doesn't look like a warehouse”, Ansil double checks Yoda's directions, ”It's a food stand. But the name is right...”. Ansil takes the line, making sure Blue doesn't wander off. Once up, he orders a small dish and asks the cook, "I'm looking for Ursa Dogo, is she here?"

"BLU6, That's what I'll call you -Blue Six." Ansil chatters as he leads them to the warehouse.

"That's nonsense. You must a have a master, someone you belong to? Do you have a name?..." Ansil asks with reservation, not sure what answer he'll get in return. "My name is Ansil Harbright. I am a Jedi.", he says with more firmness of certainty than he expected, "Padawan."

"Strange talk for a droid..." Ansil says to Rogar, he looks curiously at U6. "Alright -come along. I'll take you to the Jedi Hall for holding until you are properly claimed." He nods the roguish man and set off.

Once out of view Rogar, he says to U6, "We just have a quick stop before the Hall, just stay close by, those thugs could come back looking for you. Who is your master anyways?" Instead, he heads to the warehouse Yodi addressed.

Ansil remains behind the personal transport even though the firefight seems over. He takes account of the situation for a second, then musters up enough curiosity to overcome shyness and says to the rouge and the droid, "Are you two injured? Section Security are on their way if you are."

Ansil can see a man and a droid under fire from a group who appears to be thugs. While he can't tell who anyone is, he is certain that the blast that just buzzed his head is as much danger to anyone in the area. It was at least his duty to prevent citizens.

Remaining behind cover, Ansil focuses on a nearby garbage bin and sends it crashing towards the human with the blaster.

What is the Jedi's view of the Mandalorian?

Ansil didn't have fantasies about being a knight of the Order. He hadn't earned the privilege of wearing the traditional brown Jedi robes of knighthood, nor did he want to embellish the attention and authority it provoked, even if he could mimic the appearance. Instead, he throws his modern traveling half-hooded cloak around his shoulders, grabs his pack from this quarters, then heads out to the warehouse near the Pleasure District.

An hour later, he finds himself in chaos as a nearby firefight sends screaming citizens rushing past him. Curiosity and something else, draws him towards the conflict.

”Any questions have you Ansil Harbright?”

”Yes, Master Yoda, I vow to preserve the Ways of the Jedi”, Ansil response casually. His words weighed more than expected, more than Ansil himself understood. He returns to look out at the sky traffic.

"What thoughts have you on the Clone Wars, my new Padawan? What insights have you?”

Ansil turns away from the city view to answer Yoda, "It's a curious thing Master. As far as I understand, it doesn't seem right...", he looks a bit nervous, pausing to consider whether to continue.

Then taking a short breath, he blurts out almost spitefully, "-that the Jedi Order are involved in taking sides in the whole thing."

There, I said it.

He waits to see if his comment might get him a scolding, then continues. "As Master Zao taught - the Jedi Knights are the guardians of peace and justice. Not guardians of the Republic." The last part he added himself. "Yes, we should be guardians peace and justice - AND MORE. I know the Jedi Text speaks of such moral things in vague terms but I believe that freedom and fear, justice and cruelty, have always been at war, and I believe that the Force is not neutral between them. There are absolutes in the universe - that it is divided between Good and Evil; that the Force is the absolute inerrant truth; that it is the will of the Force."

Ansil almost drops limp from whatever vocalized that out of him.

Training with Master Zao went by in an instant. At first Ansil thought the Veknoid was crazy, a thought which quickly turned to respect when the blind master took on a hunting pack of nexu with nothing but rocks. Zao wasn't lazy and had expected much of him in physical and mental training. Within two years on Graath, the uncoordinated playful kid had changed to a prepare young adult, just passed the threshold of boyhood.

His lack of external experience though was evident, as he answers with unpondered ernest and slight confusion, ”I feel fine, Master”, looking out curiously at the Coruscant sky traffic, This must be a trick question.

At fifteen years old, Ansil was slightly smaller than most human boys of his age. He stood firmly at 1.5 meters with a soft physique, slender with pliant potential. His boyish charm came through his mousy brown hair, beryl eyes and an inquisitive frown; however, the gentle features of his face, almost girl-like, made him look more pouty than rebellious. He still wears the simple two-piece mesh suit which he arrived in - having been surprised that the baggage his parents had packed for him didn't contain much, in fact, nothing at all.

Ansil pretended to be meditating.

The pungent smell of the strange ingredients cooking nearby was surprisingly pleasant, unlike anything he'd ever had in all the Houses of Harbright, which as far as he felt, tended to be traditional boring Coruscant cuisine. The more prominent thought in his mind was the repeated scene from a few days ago, when his parents and his aunt waved to him from the cruiser's window as it lifted away.

His aunt, Selnia, was virtually a celebrity from his perspective; young, adventurous and attracted lots of respect from the inter-families for whatever reasons. Although it was ultimately his choice, it was she who approached his parents and offered them guidance into manhood; one path continues his military school and one day, an officer in the Galactic Republic; the other, something different and more..."civilized". Ansil's answer was firmly, "Do I have to?".

When Zao nudges him back into his studies...
