Star Wars Legends Untold Force - Chapter 5
Chapter 5: Gray
Gailen feels the death of the Mandalorians and must fear for Saber. Ready to quit training to find her, he jumps off the floor and wants to go to Concorde when Mace stops him abruptly. -What you wanna do? You mourn and revenge when she is dead? Or protect and then leave her when she lives? – Gailen can not deny the whiteness of his Master’s words, so he remains silent. -No, you do not do anything like that. You stay here and accept both ways to get the vaapad.- ” What will I be then? ” Ask Gailen. – The result of the prophecy. The balance between Jedi and Sith. A grand master of horror. But every grandmaster needs a weapon. “Mace answers and points to the boulder that was previously damaged by Gailen, which is criss-crossed by cracks. Using power, Gailen breaks the rock and finds inside a contoured Viridian Kaibur crystal, which calls him like a siren to him. -An impossible crystal … – Comment on the mind of Mace as Gailen releases the crystal from the rock. -The contour pin color makes it bicolored, a red and a blue blade is possible, depending on your current trend. Finding a viridian crystal is extremely difficult for Sith and Jedi. Your connection to the Force is strengthened by the fact that this is a Kaibur Crystal. – Listen to Gailen’s explanations of his Master, but he is distracted by the almost fist-sized crystal in his hands. Some months have passed since Cody became the elite of resistance that Fett Klan took over and wiped out. To Codys and Grand Moff Randd’s biggest displeasure this seems to have not broken the resistance but only strengthened. In addition, the sightings of a survivor fat in green armor before the resistance supply camp attacks are becoming more common. So Cody stands in front of a projector, expecting new orders from Randd. ” General Cody you disappoint me too deeply. I thought an officer of your rank would quickly and decisively end this uprising. ” ‘Sir. It seems that the information from the Imperial Intelligence Service is flawed. There’s another unlisted fat or someone who pretends to be such. “Cody explains his setbacks. “I do not want to hear excuses. A secret weapon of the Empire is on its way to them. First, strip all Imperial personnel from Concorde Dawn, quarantine them, and release I71B on the planet. Neither Imperiale nor the Rebellion will be able to obtain supplies from Concorde Dawn. ” Orders Randd Cody, staring at the Grand Moff in shock. “To release Sir Greywing on an imperial supply planet seems a bit extreme given the prevailing resistance, which can not be proven to be a link to rebellion.” No excuses General. They have their orders. “After Randd finishes the transmission, Cody asks himself for the first time whether his decision to keep the inhibitor chip was correct. Would he have joined the rebellion without the chip like Rex? Cody pushes that thought aside and complies with his task. But he can not bring himself to leave Concorde Dawn. For months, she had not heard anything from Gailen except for a brief transmission in which he spoke of a way to change his condition. Now in the Scimitar driving around Concorde Dawn and planning further attacks with the Resistance of the local farmers, she has no choice but to wait for Gailen’s next transmission. She’s working on her old Mandalorian armor, recovered from Fat’s estate, when Fred points out an incoming holon message. Well, but in the hope that it’s a message from Gailen, play the message. In front of her is Lando Calrissian, smuggler, flirt, steward and long time General of the Rebel Alliance. ” Hey my dear Saber. I’ve heard that you have some of the Emperor’s secret records and that Chanath Cha wanted to rip you off. I’m sorry for Cha, but the New Republic would like to buy this data. It offers information, credits or ranks for exchange. Get in touch with me if you’re interested in the deal or me. “Recall Saber Lando and the mischievous face of the general appears before her. ‘Saber, nice to see you again.’ ” ‘Not the same. I did not expect the matter on Corusant I do not want to hear from you again. ” Saber means to him and crosses her arms, with dislike to her chest. ” But, but my love, we do not let us keep stories from the deal of our lives because of old. Or? “Lando thoughtfully distracted herself from Saber’s breasts, which are still lifted by her arms. No, you’re right. But this information is very valuable for the Rebellion or the New Republic. I do not know if I can part with them so easily. “Lando smiles. ” Then let me convince you that it is in your best interest to leave this data to me and the Republic. ” Since Gailen started his training months ago, he is frustrated for the first time. Again and again he had tried in his meditation to put his crystal into a lightsaber grip and failed again. -The creation of a lightsaber requires concentration and dedication.- Mace tells him too often. In a fit of rage, he smashes all the lightsabers in his possession, which had just been hovering around him shortly before. “How do you want to teach me the way of the grays, if you yourself were just a Jedi?” So you accept the limitation of your Master’s point of view. From a Jedi’s point of view, I have only partially explored the path of horror. You have to go further. Unite the teachings of Jedi and Sith.- Commands Mace as he becomes transparent for the first time since their first meeting. Gailen’s anger is immediately triggered by despair in the cold. – Accept both sides in you.- Are Mace’s last words before he has completely disappeared. And he is gone. Gailen thinks and meditates anew. Again, the lightsaber parts begin to float around him and the Cortosis ruff, torn off his helmet, begins to join. Deeper and deeper into his meditation, he begins to have visions of death, panic, fear and saber. He accepts the visions as a possibility of the future and forks deeper and deeper into the vaapad. The parts of the lightsabers first begin to glow red, then finally to glow white and begin to collide, partially shatter, forming new parts and shapes. Finally, Gailen feels like he has reached the lowest point of the Vaapad. For him, Jedi and Sith forces are no longer opposites, but an understanding of power, perfect and inexhaustible possibilities unfold before him. In visions he learns how the Order of the Grays of Jedi and Sith was smashed because of its neutrality and obliterated from the history of the galaxy, as the Last Grand Master of Gray pronounced the prophecy of the Chosen One as revenge on Jedi and Sith. Gailen awakens this and more from his meditation, his lightsaber floating in front of him. With an extreme-long grip, a rising Cortosis Parry Rod, opened by a small button on the handle, a blue blade shoots out of both sides of the Parrier Rod and a 1 meter long blade from the handle. With a total length of just over 1.4m, the longest lightsaber Gailen has ever seen. With one hand grasping the black grip, he immediately senses the power which starts from this weapon. His communicator beeps and Saber’s message is played back. ‘Dear Gailen. I hope you reached this message in time. I tried Concorde Dawn without leaving you. But I was not able to set a course for you … “
