Chosen Sisters 12/2/2021
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
Tesara has gone to a small café area on the ORA ship after being picked up outside the massive destroyed ship. It’s obvious to Astra as they sit that Tesara is not herself. She looks a bit haunted. She orders a strong coffee and looks at Astra. “Thank you for trusting me to get Ryan out of there. I think Durro didn’t realize how far away he still was and if we waited , we’d have lost him.” She says quietly.
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
Astra Drawing using her data pad simply waghtinng for Tesara to speak. She wanted to give Her sister time to collect her thoughts. She looked up setting the data pad aside when Tesara spoke. Giving her favorite Big sister her full attention. " Tesara I always trust you, I just was not sure you had thought that plan through," she said with a smile. She watched Tesara worry growing. She know sumthing was wrong it was not hard to tell. " Tesara what is bothering you " she asked.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara sighs. She knows she’s making Astra worry. She’s worried about Astra as well. She gathers her thoughts and then begins to speak. “I used the injector. I saw terrible things.” She whispers. “So much…it happened so fast.” She is shaking again. “When I used the Force today, I understood finally. They can see me.” She closes he eyes and tries to. Breathe the way she was taught to calm herself.

(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" there was a reason I suggested against using my blood for that" she said reaching out and taking one of Tesara's hands in her own. She understand what Tesara was fealing struggling with. Her own visions had been terrifying enough. " Tesara we are together and alive and we can get through the coming storm together." She said gently trying to help Tesara calm down. She waghted a few moments.
" The professor told us some of your vision wail you were out cold. It sounded like a horrible experience, one im not at all surprised by. But it's ok im here for you. Everything is going to be ok. When you panicked earlier it was because you know those Bugs we're on the ship wasn't it" She said gently.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
She looks surprised for a moment. “I should have realized he would explain what happened.” She takes a long sip of the black coffee, feeling a little bit better. “And as for the bugs, yes and no.” She frowns, trying to figure out a way to explain. “They’re everywhere. But they’re not able to access this side of the…the veil? The barrier between world, dimensions. They were…I mean….I revealed myself to them in the dream.” She frowns again. “It wasn’t a dream, it was a vision. It was as if I had shone a light into the dark and they turned to look at me because I WAS the light. And now they can see me all the time. They know me.” She swallowed.
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" you may not be the only one they see. If what you are saying is true then there is a possibility they can see any of the seers" Astra said remembering there previous vision of the storm. " that could prove problematic" Astra said quietly.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
“No, I don’t think so. I may have used your blood but that doesn’t make me a seer.” She looked thoughtful for a moment. “It was me. I revealed myself to them and it’s me they can see. When you used the force today to assist in the rescue, you didn’t feel as if there were a million eyes on you, hunger so encompassing that it made you want to be sick. That is what upset me today.” She looked intensely at Astra. “They eat the Force, and whatever they consume doubles their own power.”
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" I see that makes much more sense. Do you feal this every time you reach out to the force." Astra asked. She still could not shake the fealing that when seers used there ability they were temporarily visible again she remembered the vision she hand Tesara had together.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara nods. She looks afraid. “Astra I have come to depend on the Force so much. Not to be able to use my gifts without my light drawing them is going to be so hard. Look at how Durro ignored my warning not to use the Force against the bug! If I hadn’t remembered my bow with the Doonium arrows he might be dead. We all might have died! We need more arrows but…”. She shudders. “It’s like I can feel Him….the keeper….like he’s watching me right now even though I’m not using the Force.” She closes her eyes. “He is utterly terrifying.”
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" the keeper?" Astra asked she tilted her head sideways. The weals turning she had sumthing she was thinking about. " what if Anetta's message was not just a request but also a working. I wander if other seers have experienced anything similar to what your describing? As for not using the force Tesara it's part of who you are. Now im not saying use it recklessly and draw attention to yourself but you can't be afraid to use it. Particularly when you need to reclame your arrows. We need some more weapons like your bow to. " she said. She tilted her head to the other side. Her free hand moved to play with her braclet on her right wrist.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
"The bow is special to me but it's the arrows that are precious and rare. Even if we had a hundred archers with a hundred bows it wouldn't be enough. There are millions of them, Astra." She sighed. "I understand now what Aneta meant by 'take my sight'. Imagine for a moment that you could see all of the unseen things around us. Spirits, both human and other races. The deva of the land, that sort of thing. And now you can see THEM too. They are everywhere, Astra. The ones on this side of the veil are able to be seen physically by everyone, but I can see the ones who aren't actually on this side yet." She says, sounding miserable. "I'd avoid doing any kind of farseeing of your own free will for a while. I know they come on you unbidden though. Just...please be careful."
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" I understand but more weapons like your bow that can hurt them that what I meant" Astra said gently. She stood up walked over to teasaras side of the table and pulled her into another hug. " It's ok your sister is here to help. As for Farseeing my uncle kind of forbid it. Something about fracturing my mind further and some kind of mental disorder. I don't understand it but I do know I want to get better be so I can protect you and Roza. Be the jedi I always wanted to be to you know" She said with a half smile. She wished she know how to help Tesara now how to protect her.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara was grateful for the hug. It warmed her like nothing else had today. She hugged her back and then looked evenly at her chosen sister. "How have you been doing with Ashanti and the others?"
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" umm... Ashanti and I got into a fight after I found out that..." She trailed off for a moment. Shut her eyes and reached out to the force to help her stay calm. The familiar swirls and currents were always comforting. She opened her eyes. " Quinn is dead Syria told me I ran into her wail we were on that plant. I wanted so badly to kill her so I chose to run away. And will Ashanti do not like that? It led to a long talk with the professor about them and apparently, we may have some kind of brainwashing to deal with as well. Which I kinda learned from naked cleaning man" She said with a frown.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara blinked in confusion. "Hold on...slow down...what?? Sinya? You saw Sinya? She said Quinn is dead? Let's unpack that before we address the brainwashing." She frowned. "Sinya is hard and bitter. She has fallen to the dark side, but I still respect her, even if she'd punch me square in the face for saying it" Tesara looked sad. "The awful thing is that I like her and I understand why she fell to the dark side. Her life has been extremely hard. But...Astra just because Sinya said Quinn was dead doesn't mean she was telling the truth. She hates Jedi, Astra. She wants them to hurt the way she has been hurt. She would say and do anything to cause pain for any Jedi. So please...don't give up on Quinn yet. I know he wouldn't give up on you if the roles were reversed here." She said gently.
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
((my advice is to respond to this then we can address the brainwashing))
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
((Astra was being Astra and trying to give all the information quickly lol))
" she said she made sure there were no survivors, I it seemed that she was telling the truth. Ether way I want her dead which does scare me" she said quietly.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara reached out and took Astra's arm, but did not squeeze. "Astra look at me." ((when she is sure you are, she speaks)) "I would not allow you to fall to the dark side for anger and revenge. And I would also not allow you to kill someone who likely lied to you just to see your pain. Sinya saved my life once. I cannot let you murder her."
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" I did not say I was going to act on my fealings, if she was lying she is a great deal of very bad words and I hope I never cross paths with her again. " She said gently. " Besides as Ashanti so gleefully pointed out im no figter. I was always getting my but handed to me and having to be rescued when Sol was alive" She said.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara looked thoughtful. "All right, back to what the professor said. And then I want to talk about the fighting thing." She smiled, starting to feel more like herself than she had in what felt like days (when in fact it had only been one)
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
(I think Tesaras mind broke)
Astra nodded. " the mental issues or the brain washing" She asked.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
"Tell me everything you think and/or the professor said about brainwashing."
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" well, you remember that mission our Master sent me on to west side?" She asked pusing for a moment so Tesara could answer.
" We'll during that mission I went onboard a ship that had these monsters on it. The one's I met as a child the look human but are droid underneath. I was trying to hide and think I hit my head. The next thing I remember is waaaking up in the room I had hidden in and leaving the ship. I went back to the room Durro and I had been allowed to use after a few hours I think I felt sumthing was variably wrong and then sol showed up. Next day I saw Master more like one of those monsters and killed him thought I was protected by a group of younglings." She said pouring once again to get the story in order.
" waile you were recovering professor Kanobi spoke to Durro and I of the mental health issue, and what he believes I have. After Durro left he prescribed some medication which I was hesitant to take. I ended up exsplaing that I am freaked out an afraid of medical anything. In particular because of having woken up in a backta tank after being attacked by one of those droid things and there was the surgery that happened after the booming I was hit with a peace for dabree from the cathedral I think. That's when naked cleaning man had spoken up about them being silenced during my attack in master mores as well and as claiming there was another bacta tank incident I was not remembering and some nonsense about a mirror at that point he became a sobbing mess on the floor and I could not understand him. I tried to explain what he was saying to the professor but it did not seam helpful at the time. " she looked at the table hoping Tesata did not think she was crazy.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
((Can you clarify this? "as well and a bacta tank and a mear")))
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" Later after the incident with synia professor asked for more about what they had been talking about and more detailed of the story. He came to the conclusion I had been brainwashed as I fell unconches and was able to wake up an leave with no issues. He also says one of my as he puts it imaginary friends may not be imaginary. He did some terrifying medical scans of my brain and decided he should pull my medical records from the serenno academy I think. But he is convinced sumthing was done to me wail I was out cold on that ship" She said hoping the story made sense.
@Tesara Anerin (I think I fixed it now)
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
(((Yes the above edit helps to clear things up))
Tesara listened intently, trying to make sure she got everything Astra was saying. "So naked cleaning man said there was a bacta tank incident YOU don't remember and something about a mirror. You tried explaining to the professor who prescribed medication? And...have you taken the medication? Has it changed anything?"
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" That was after he prescribed the medication I did take the medication but they are still here he said it takes time for the medication to work. That medication has to do with the supposed mental issue. It was my fear of taking the medication and admitting it to the professor and why was what triggered Naakad cleaning man to speak up" she said.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
"Mental issue." Tesara frowned. "What does he mean? My mother said there are many diseases of the mind that leave the body perfectly fine but the person cannot think or act clearly. Can you tell me a little more what he meant?"
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" umm... I'm not sure what he called it just that it's why I am seeing the " Imaginary friends" and they have something to do with different aspects of my personality. This is so confusing he could probably. Explain it to you far better then I could" She said.
((OOC: I have no clue if Astra was told the actual name or not and we lost that recording so yah)
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara frowns. "Aspects of your personality." She say to herself, then glances at Astra. "Have you done much.....thinking? about this and what it means for those people you communicate with?"
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" that im crazy? And that they are part of me" she said quietly. She had not really had much time to think about it. " All I know is if that's true then Ashinti scares the hell out of me. She is so angry and has not self-control. " said quietly.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara hugs Astra. It had helped her and she hoped it would do the same for her. When she leaned back, she gave Astra a smile. “We’ll, if Ashanti is a part of you then that means there’s a part of you that is really really really angry. Do you know why?”
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
Astra smiles and hugs Tesara. " Oh i don't know cold not be the Jedi for what they did to my mother or how they made me fight just to become a Padawan, the fact that the only ones to take me surely was Lord serrano and Sol, or I don't know synia for attaching the Jedi ship. and killing inosinate people" Astra said kind of sarcastically. She smiled shaking her head. She was not and angry person. and well she had plenty of reason to be angry she was not. Not entirely anyway she was definitely Angry with Synia. " I have plenty of reason to be angry but I'm not I'm not and angry pension" She said.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
“We’ll that was a lot of things to be angry about.” She pondered. “ if you pushed all of that anger down inside of you and pretended that it wasn’t there or that you weren’t ‘an angry person’ then it must have leaked out sideways in the form of Ashanti. I don’t understand how she knew what she knew though.”
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" Yah that's the question or how naked cleaning man claimed to know about an event I have no memory of." She said shaking her head." I just don't understand this any of it" She said clear frustration with the situation. " I just want them gone or to be quiet" she said.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara glances around to see if anybody is listening. When she can see that no one is in listening range, she speaks. “I think you need to find someone to speak to who is aware of this mental problem that can help you address each of them.”
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" im not going to Starlight!" Astra said firmly. She shock her head. " there more appt to seal me in carbonate then actually help the producer seams to know a great deal about this though" She added much quieter.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara looked surprised. “I didn’t say anything about sending you to starlight! I would never do that.” She looks a little hurt. “The professor might have the knowledge but he’s also in the middle of a lifetime long chase of the swarm or what he calls ‘The purge’.
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" Durro sigested it, im sorry I may still be a little bothered by that" she said dropping her head. She had not meant to hurt Tesara. " I would say are an investigation into the storm is more important for now I can feal the force calling me to the unknown region along with Durro. " she said.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
“it’s all right. if he had suggested taking you to starlight while I was around I would have argued that. Starlight cannot be the only place in the galaxy with specialists on this kind of thing!” She sighs and sits back. “Why would he say that?” She’s obviously confused.
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" My mother is being treated at a hospital there. He thought there were more qualified people there. But again I don't think they would actually treat me other then to lock me in a cage perminitly, freeze me in carbinite, or worse they can't be trusted" Astra said.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
She sighs. “So many people with petty disagreements and long lived wars. If they knew what was coming they’d band together to fight the swarm!” She blinks, remembering that was exactly what Jevious had asked her to do on Lanus. And what has she done but sent the man that she could envision spending the rest of her life with into danger instead. She bit her lip. “Ava told me that Jack is safe and recovering on Baklid. I wish I could see him, but I think it may be a very long time before I do.”
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
Astra smiled " Thats great news. Tesara the only why they will come together is if they know what is coming in order to get that information we need to head to the unknown regions there's answers there I know it" Astra said.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara nods. “I suppose we should return. I bet everyone is going to be asking that woman we rescued a bunch of questions. I want to avoid overwhelming her.” She says, standing.
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" I guess be we need to do sumthing fun together later. And omg can you believe Durro tried to negotiate with one of those Bugs. " She said with a slight giggle as she picked up her data pad.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara groans loudly. “what was he thinking?? You can sometimes negotiate with aggressive people when you first meet them but this isn’t something that can communicate. And its sole purpose is to eat force users! I don’t understand why he did that.”
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" Because he is the master of crazy" Astra said bursting into a fit of giggles. " Seriously and he calls me impulsive. I not the one that does not lision when people worn me about stuff. Hay master let's not stay in this system, full of people who want to kill us. What does he do? stays in said system. Don't use the force on the bug." Astra said giggling like crazy. They were away from danger they could giggle about it now.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara does giggle too, and it feels a little too shrill. Laughter after everything she has just been through feels good but almost guilty as well.
They head for the professor’s ship to check in about what is happening next
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" See a good laugh and some fun is always good we need to break up the stress" She said with a smile as they walked.
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
Tesara nods. “Hey, if I freak out again, just do the same thing that you did today and give me a hug? It helped. I’ll do the same for you.”
@(Princess) Astra Korraay
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
" of course," she said with a smile. She pulled up a drawing on her datapad. " Here look we are sisters Tesara. I'll always come to help you. Together there's nothing we can't handle" She said smiling.
@Tesara Anerin
Tesara Anerin — 12/02/2021
//ending here
//returning to Professor’s ship
(Princess) Astra Korraay — 12/02/2021
// sounds good
