Disclaimer: I do not own the Harry Potter universe or the ever expanding Star Wars universe nor do I make any money from them, but I wished I did. Also if I somehow use another author's material it was not intentional and I apologize for the mistake.

Author's Note: I like to thank you all for your kind reviews my first time out. I have decided to continue Exile but not in a traditional style I am going to write snapshots of life in the hopes someone who can write will take up the story and blow away all my expectations.

Chapter 2 Legends and Trials

It has been 10 years since Exile left his own world in shame and despite his choice of solitude had met many new and interesting life forms of all kinds. For a time Exile would find a peace and push his anger and shame to the deepest recesses of his mind; eventually though the shame and anger would return through terrible nightmares and Exile would move on in the hopes of out running the nightmares. It was during these travels that Exile would be approached by the ancient and mysterious Kwa saurian race and invited to their home world. At first Exile declined the invitation but eventually a series of dreams and prophetic nightmares lead him to the Kwa home world here in the Milky Way galaxy. The Kwa welcomed Exile with open arms and allowed to live in their main star temple a place of great history and profound knowledge. It was here at the temple that Exile would eventually finally find the peace he so desperately searched for. It was also here that Exile would learn to hone his body and make his magic truly his own.

As part of the many studies underwent at the temple scholars would weave stories and song of the ancient times of how the Kwa would travel distant worlds using the infinity gates and of even how they travel to another galaxy. The tales would speak of their many trials, of wars with 2 other species the Gree and the Rakata and how each species would eventually destroy or severely harm their people through arrogance or over reliance of dangerous technologies. Finally the tales would speak of the hidden danger of the infinity gates and how their great energies would slowly cause life forms to devolve to lesser forms; the final passages of the tales would describe how the gates were dismantled and how they feared for the lost tribes in the distant galaxy.

Exile's time with the Kwa was not all legends of the ancient past in matter of fact the first year Exile threw himself into lessons that the Kwa temple provided at a suicidal pace. Despite concerns of friends and teachers Exile continued even when his night was filled with devastating night terrors. It finally came to head and Exile decided to move on but before he left the temple; the head scholar convinced Exile to undertake one last trial.

Exile enter the cave at dawn as required entering with only 3 days rations and the clothes on his back. Despite having to enter the cave on his own Exile's friends stood a silent vigil outside. For three days only barely understandable noise left the cave. On the first day sounds of violence were heard leaving the cave the scholar guarding the cave was hard pressed to stop Exile's friends from entering. On the second morning sounds of arguing in a language that could not be understood was heard; in the afternoon hysterical laughter replaced the arguing. Finally on the third morning weeping could be barely heard. Finally at sunset of the third day an exhausted Exile walked out of the cave clutching a rather old and large book that he called his families legacy. After this trial Exile was a brand new being. His shoulders no longer slumped under some unbearable weight; he smiled real smiles and laughed real laughs and the most importantly the aura of barley contained agitation was replaced with a sense of quiet strength.

So finally after 10 years of study Exile was ready to set out again. This time he would be setting out not out of pain but in curiosity a series of dreams had been drawing him to retrace the flight path of his ancestor to a galaxy far, far away.
