Scipio's Log: Entry 21.223 - Moving forward

"I am not necessarily as bright as I seem. In my desire to see the boy prepared for battle, I have neglected one of the most valuable parts of his training: intelligence. In order for him to fight he needs to know who he is to fight. This error has entirely been on my part. His annoyance at being recalled from Ryloth is truly justifiable.

"As his continued use by the Separatist Council grows ever frequent, I need to ensure that we are both equipped with knowledge for the battles to come. To a degree I have readied him with information, but mostly about Clones. If he is to fight Jedi then he needs to know about the Jedi.

"Having compiled a few data readouts on select Jedi who have gained much notoriety, I plan to share these with him first. Kenobi, Windu, Koon, Fisto... and Skywalker, shall be his first lessons. He learns as he fights, that much he has proven with battling the late Ima-Gun Di. But some are so unpredictable he cannot possibly learn them on the fly, Skywalker being the best example of this.

"Ryloth taught us both a great deal. I learned how truly adept he is at fighting and at carrying out orders. And I certainly hoped he learned that not all battles need to be won for the war to be won. And that is the end goal: to see him bathed in the blood of his enemies, hoisting the bodies of Jedi and the Chancellor high as the CIS conquers Coruscant. That is my dream for him. That is a dream that cannot be recognized unless we are fully prepared!"
