 The Trials of a Jedi
: ‘
On the isolated, frozen world of RI
Var, young Vima Sunrider enters th
fortress in search of Ulic Qel-Droma. She
calls out, hoping to find him, hoping he
will teach her to be a Jedi. But when she
«+ finds the bitter, gui iden man, he sees a
vision of her mother, jis beloved Nomi
Sunrider. He refuses to train her, insists hé
no longer a Jedi Knight, and turns her out into
the snow. Vima wanders forlorn and lost through
a growing blizzard, unaware of her danger, until
Ulic rescues her. The two take shelter to wait out
the storm... and Ulic gradually warms to the
company, and tells Vima of his tragic days as a Jedi.
Hoggon, the down-on-hi Juck scavenger, has left Vima
on the frozen world with Uli astonished by his brush
with fame. Then Hoggon realizes that something unusual
is going on. He rushes to Exi ion to tell Nomi where
her daughter has gone. But the aught woman refuses
to hear him, and he is taken away.
Meanwhile, the Twi’lek Jedi Tott Doneeta travels with a bitter
and angry Sylvar to her Cathar homeworld, where she is received
as a returning hero. She seeks out her old mentor, who tries to
help her vanquish the ghosts in her mind. Sylvar decides to go
out on a blood hunt, a Cathar ritual to hunt down dangerous prey
and purge the inner iolence and fury. Sylvar and Tott head off to
a nest of destructiv. ectoid creatures, the Kiltik. Slipping inside,
they attack the creatures — but Sylvar is utterly filled with violence
and fury. She becomes a whirlwind of teeth, claws, and lightsaber.
Appalled by the magnitude of her unleashed violence, Tott leaves her
alone, telling Sylvar that she must find her own release, her own serenity.
By herself, Sylvar seeks to calm the storm in her heart... .
