"If you choose this path Initiate then know this; you will forever be a Healer first and a Jedi second. Your allegiance will be to life, the will of the living force, and those who come to you, those who will depend on you in their times of greatest need. And your task? To mend the broken, replenish the weak, and cure the sick. To be a Healer is to boldly strive into a maelstrom, from which all but you would retreat, and have the nerve to lay down your weapon and tend to the fallen instead of standing and fighting.
But we must not follow this mandate blindly. Death is not your enemy, to be fought manically and against all odds. Death will forever be your unwilling companion in this journey and must be accepted; there is no death, there is the force.
So what will it be Initiate? It will not be an easy task, you will see many terrible things and rarely will you be heralded as a hero even amongst your pears. But you could never ask for a more fulfilling calling.
Now come along Padawan. There is much to do, and very little time to do it in…"
