Chapter 3: Seeing Sith & The Jedi Covenant
It was early in the morning Failen and Jaden gone to meditate in the forest. Jedi often see visions of the future, but today was different there was a faint disturbance in the force. Failen was able to realize it he began to think deeply into the force and he saw in a first person vision.
He was staring into the wide space and the stars that filled it. Failen felt to have been in a space port. He heard the door open, a woman in dark robes said, "Master, the lightsaber" Failen didn't control what he was just simply seen to see what he appeared to be. He heard a voice said "His lightsaber," The women pulled out the lightsaber and did a saber throw, He caught the green lightsaber and turned off the ray. It appeared to be a black single bladed lightsaber with brown tape wrapped around. The woman said again, "Forgive me my lord… I have failed you the Jedi master escaped" Failen sensed fear in the woman. The lord strangled her, until she fainted. Unable to awaken the lord carried her body with the force and healed her. The woman said, "Why my lord have you spared me? That was the way you have taught me" It was an act of mercy. The lord said "It will do me no good if you are dead; I still need you to carry my acts. You have not failed me." The woman spoke again "But… why my lord?" He answered again "It is because you say that you have failed, with failure comes punishment and yet I punish you because you believe you have failed that is also not our way you could have lied." The woman bowing down said "yes my lord. I understand" The lord said again " I give you leave." She said again "yes my lord" The master closed his eyes to think –
Failen opened his eyes and was breathing heavily. Jaden said "Failen is anything wrong?" he responded "Yes master. I have seen a vision, a vision in the dark side" Jaden opened his eyes to Failen and said, " You must resist the temptation of the darkside, it would always seems to be the easier way but the Jedi resist them to make the galaxy live in peace. Failen nodded his head and said, "No master this is different I have seen their return." Jaden couldn't believe it he asked in confusion "Who's return?" He answered, "The Sith." Jaden seemed to be confused he thought to have banished the Sith when he destroyed Tavion. Jaden said again "Come, we will discuss this with the council."
The Jedi masters Luke Skywalker, Mara Jade Skywalker, Cilghal, Corran Horn, Kyp Durron, Ikrit, Kenth Hamner, Kyle Katarn, Tresina Lobi, Kam Solusar, Streen and Kota entered in the grand hall. Jaden and Failen waited for them and said "Luke my student seems to have sensed a disturbance in the force." Kyle said, "A disturbance? Are you sure it just isn't your stress from your training?" Failen seemed to be a bit angry "No master Katarn it is a disturbance." The Jedi masters came to a dispute about this vision they haven't seen, but a mere student has. Luke said "Please tell me what did you see." Failen answered, "Well I saw I was in a starship with an apprentice. It looked nothing like the Jedi temple and I the apprentice seem to have given me a black hilted lightsaber with a green ray." Kota looked at his lightsaber and said, "I believe him. I've seen my fate during meditation I will die." He looked down and showed the others his lightsaber. Luke said "Kota don't think so pessimistically fate might change for you." Kota said, "I guess your right." Luke questioned him further, "What made you think this was Sith?" Failen answered "The surrounding had taints of darkside and I felt cries of death, a treacherous master was called lord, His apprentice severely punished with death. "
Luke said, "I believe you and so does the council. We will establish the 2nd Jedi covenant on Dagobah along with many other elite Jedi knights. You are dismissed." Luke began to wonder what many of the other Jedi masters wondered how can he see the Sith rise without the Jedi masters knowing.
