Darkness
Quite a bit of time had passed since Unna perfumed the act that tainted her with darkness. She could not regret the act that had potentially saved her, Lady Baku, and the others. Gadeon helped her to understand why it was wrong, but she still was uncertain that she could atone when she could not regret it. Then she came face to face with Orchid, who was someone who killed for what she believed was right. Whether or not Orchid's acts were evil or Unna's acts were just, using the Force to kill for what the saw as right was what tainted them both with darkness. Orchid was just clearly further down that path with Unna, which revealed to Unna that it was a path she must turn back from. To Unna, Orchid appeared to be insane with darkness. The darkness starts somewhere, and for Unna it was on the day she killed two assailants by using the Force to hurl a speeder. Although using the Force to kill assailants to save another seems just, the darkness that can creep up will only end up resulting in the one with good intentions falling to the darkness and then becoming one of those insane assailants.
Exhibit A: Orchid, Exhibit B: Chun. Chun came back though. Auro, Gadeon, and Ashla had never been tainted by the darkness, so they wouldn't be able to relate, but Chun could. To speak with Chun, Unna had to walk through the Palace of Baku, which she could hardly bare to do. It was already changing. The Replublic was in the process of converting it into a military operation. The transition had just began, but what would come of the fountains? She supposed it wouldn't matter to the former Lady Baku, for she said she would always be able to see her fountains.
When Unna arrived to Chun's quarters, formerly The Lady's quarters, she saw that Chun was just wrapping up with Fa'lynn.
"Hello, Master Chun. I have a matter that weighs heavy on my heart and you are the only one I feel I can relate to. I would appreciate the opportunity to seek your council." Unna was timid due to the subject matter she was about to bring up. She could see that darkness that could not be purged was still upon Chun.
Before Fa'Lynn left, Unna looked to her pleasantly and said "Good to see you Master, I would be pleased if you could stay as well. Your perspective would be valuable to me as well, if you have the time." Unna was a little closer to Master Fa'lynn, because of the secret shared between the two of them and the fact that she had more experience interacting with her. Unna was a bit intimidated by Chun.
