The Cave

Exile had not been as interesting as it could have been. Often times Yoda found himself alone with no one to think about. The first year on Dagobah was miserable, but there were things to do, such as to build some sort of shelter, which he had built out of an old escape pod and the vegetation of the surrounding forest. The Force had become so dark that it was almost unpleasant to connect with. Although Dagobah was powerful in the Force, specifically the darker Force, Palpatine's evil doings had caused the most pain. The Jedi purge had brought great sorrow to all remaining Jedi, and through the Force Yoda had seen many images of pure evil, such as Darth Vader destroying his first group of Jedi, titling the first Inquisitor, and the destruction of the found Jedi lightsabers, which were met with cheers, since Palpatine had convinced the rest of the galaxy that the Force, along with the Jedi, were a hoax, and the Jedi used their "supreme powers" to manipulate the galaxy. The Jedi were now hated, and if a new Jedi Order or new generation of Jedi were to rise, they wouldn't be met with the same enthusiasm as the Old Republic had given to the old Jedi Order. Time passed slowly, lagging on as if it intended to stretch out and make his exile longer and more painful. He now found himself seated on a log, pondering the Force, and he suddenly felt dark energy. Not out of the Force itself, but it was near, maybe twenty or so meters away. At first, Yoda was reluctant to rise from his perch, but as the strain became more difficult to resist, Yoda hopped off the log and began his journey through the forest.

Not much time had passed, and now Yoda found himself face to face with a large, dark cave, which he could feel the dark side pouring out of. Stepping a step closer, a sudden roar suddenly rained out, causing Yoda to take a step back, startled. The roar went on for several more seconds, and then ceased. Yoda once again neared the entrance of the cave, and this time it hissed. Yoda wasn't startled since he had been expecting this, so he took another small step closer to it, and the next thing that he heard was an artificial breathing, loud and clear, loud and thundering, echoing throughout the cave, soundwaves bouncing off of the walls, causing the echoes to grow louder, and not afraid, he walked casually into the cave. Sounds of pure evil boomed inside of the cave.
