He awoke, only to find himself alone, in a empty hut.. Confused, he stood up, examining the room, noticing that it's identical to his home. He proceeded to leave the room, as he was approaching the exit, he noticed that something kept pushing him backwards as he left. 'Strange..' He had thought. He continued to push on, but was always pushed back. He decided to stop as it was taking him nowhere. Once more, he examined the room, thinking that it might be a puzzle he had to solve. As he was looking around the room, he found his spear, however.. It didn't look as usual, it was missing parts, his beautiful, but slick black spear. He was irritated, not because he was stuck, but the fact that his spear was ruined.
Irritatingly he looked for the lost parts around the room, only missing one. The only missing piece would be a black, but smooth piece looking exactly like the others. However, the issue was that it was stuck above him, at the roof. How to grab it, he didn't know. He tried recalling for something he might've known. 'Ah… There it is!' He suddenly remembered how he'd tried to link his mind with the beast, what he was about to attempt would be something different, but similar. He was focused. He closed his eyes, in a way to gain peacefulness. As he was getting calmer and calmer, his mind.. Suddenly got warm, it wasn't painful, but it wasn't exactly feeling good either. He slowly opened his eyes, and noticed that everything in his room was floating in the air.
Astonished, he looked around, careful not to move as he wouldn't want everything to suddenly collapse on him. 'This.. This is what a far seeker does.. Huh.. I kindly declined, so why am I doing their work?' Still confused, but still astonished at himself, young A'Zaat decided to seek out the piece he was looking for, careful not to pick any other object. He was getting closer and closer to the object, it felt.. Exhilarating to say the least.
He caught the object, as exhilarating as it was, he didn't want to ruin it all now. So he reminded himself to not get too excited now. Back to the subject at hand. A'Zaat proceeded to move the object towards the spear, rotating it slowly to fit it's place perfectly. As he did that light flourished into the room, everything suddenly broke into smaller particles. By the spirits was he scared! Fear crept into him, the unknown getting closer and closer.. Until the light finally reached him. It slowly proceeded to absorb him, losing feeling in his legs. He panicked, trying to move away, but how would he move away if everything else was gone? Slowly, the light started surround him. Until it finally fully absorbed him. Just before it absorbed him completely, he noticed a child staring at him. A child, with grey short hair, and green eyes, reminding him of his ancestors ancient homes.. The child had dark skin.. It felt as if the child was staring into his very soul.. He was however not frightened, being near this being caused him to be happy. 'Strange.' He had thought..
And with that, he truly awoke, noticing the fact that his family was staring at him. He also noticed that an individual with white robes was staring at him. Annoyed by them all staring he'd ask, "What?"
He was greeted with silence. The silence stood, until the robed man decided to end the silence, "Congratulations.. You have passed the trial of the mind." The robed man would say.
"Trial of the mind?" A'Zaat would ask, and with that the man would be respond, answering the young Ghorfa's questions.
He found out that the man was a Jetii, he noticed that the man was of otherworlder descent. He asked no more, only staring at the man, and remaining careful. The man noticing the change would ask what's wrong? With A'Zaat slowly realising that the man knows Ghorfanees(Ghorfa language.) "How do you know of this language outsider?" He asked coldly..
His father responded instead of the man, "Is that a way to treat our guests A'Zaat?" He asked with his mask on, it seemed as if his eye brow was raised. "No father." He says sighing whilst responding. He proceeded to ignore the robed man completely, until he had said something strange. "This one has force sensitivity, his midochlorian level seems to be towards the higher levels. I'm gonna tell you this. By letting him come with us, you're allowing him the chance to get stronger than ever. Will you give him the chance?" The man asked with an exhilarated voice. His father thought for a while, but noticed the honesty in the man. Overall, the man was giving him a good feeling. Eventually his father although sad, relented, "Fine, you may take this one with you.. However, is there a chance of us contacting him? Will he ever return?" His father asked almost urgently. The man responded with, "Yes and no, only the force knows. If you don't mind, I'd like to hurry back to temple." The man says happily. His father sighs and gives the go ahead. Explaining a few things, and thus moving him on his away.
They now approached the exits. What laid outside was a speeder of the sorts. The man went to it, and started it. He motioned the young Ghorfa to get on. Although confused, he got on. the man levitated the speeder upwards, and then sped through the desert, arriving at anchorehead city rather quickly. Anchorehead quite the big settlement to say the least. Many times bigger than his village. With square like buildings built out of materials he didn't recognise.
A'Zaat followed the man through throughout the city, finally arriving at the space port, where ships were departing every tenth minute. The man put his hands into his pockets retrieving small rectangle like objects with strange writing on them, now that he looked closely, he noticed that it was identical to the ones he gained earlier yesterday.
Their ship arrived, landing rather smoothly. It was a rectangle looking ship, with a head similar to a krayt dragon. At the end of it, was an exit/gate. The gate opened, and inside were seats. As the gates opened, the robed man motioned A'Zaat to follow him inside. A'Zaat walked inside, taking a seat of his own, next to the robed man. After all the passengers entered, the ship took off. And with that A'Zaat chose to sleep for a bit. Drifting into his very own dream world..

As stated in the previous chapter all help will be welcomed! I would also like to know whether it flows well or not, what you'd want me to consider into changing, etc. Thanks!
