			<description><![CDATA[ Watching the container teeter, Tobias leaned back slightly as he focused on both his pupil and the container. He stood as it was thrown by his pupil. He had
potential, and was a very promising student. Yet, there was still much to learn. Even though he was still young to the Jedi life, he was learning quickly.
<br>
<br>
He stepped over to the container and then turned toward his Padawan. He licked his lower lip slightly, then stepped back a few paces as his eyes met his blind
Padawan. He had... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Kazuya nodded and focused his mind around the area his master had instructed.  He could feel the object, but just barely.  The first thing Kazuya had noticed
about his force perception is that inanimate objects were harder see than living ones.  Living organisms stood out in the force, as if their connection to it
was stronger.  It took a little concentration, but after a moment he was able to sense the container clearly.

Kazuya reached out his hand instictively as if to try to... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Tobias smirked as the Padawan prepared himself to face this test. He had given him a truly impossible time to muster, yet that did not stop him. The Padawan
exploded from the starting line just as Tobias had hoped. He had the drive, and that was all he needed. As he held the rock aloft, the Padawan quickly snatched
it and Tobias dropped his hand as he released his hold on it. Yet, he glanced at his watch as he passed him.

			<description><![CDATA[ <span style="font-style: italic;">15 Seconds?</span>
<br>
<br>
Fifteen seconds was fast for a pod racer, and Kazuya would only be using his legs and starting from a dead stop.  He would have to fight inertia just to get up
to a sprint, and that alone could consume several seconds of the time limit.
<br>
<br>
<span style="font-style: italic;">He wasn&#39;t kidding when he said fast.</span>
<br>
<br>
Kazuya did as his master told him.  He reached inwards and tried to get a handle on the force... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ &quot;It is indeed, my pupil. The Force flows through all things, and as a Jedi, you can call upon the Force to augment what you feel can be a weakness to be
exploited. In truth, losing your sight is quite useful, as they can be deceived. The Force on the other hand, cannot. Through your loss, you have an ability to
be near immune to illusion, as the Force can show you what is real, and what is not.&quot;

			<description><![CDATA[ Kazuya was able to perceive his environment relatively well without the force guiding him, but now that he had it he felt almost like he could see again.  It
was very different, but also familiar to Kazuya.  Because he had no sight to distract him, Kazuya found concentrating on his surroundings through the force to
be somewhat easy.
<br>
<br>
Kazuya stood up and wiped the grass from his leggings as well.  It was not something he would normally think of since appearences meant next to nothing... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Shaking his head at his Padawan, Tobias cleared his throat and then spoke again to his pupil.
<br>
<br>
&quot;No apology needed, my pupil. Through mistakes, you learn. We are only human, after all. We learn from our mistakes, and move on to the next obstacle. By
learning the basics of meditating, you have opened your mind to the Force. Such is the first step in the path of a Jedi.&quot;

Tobias rose to his feet slightly, and then brushed off the grass from the seat of his pants as he... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Kazuya was still reeling a bit with his sudden awakening.  His own sensitivity to it was surprising and the experience had been more potent than he had
expected, but after a moment he was able to calmly turn his concentration inwards and focus on the source.  Kazuya carefully culled the louder noises his
senses were picking up and turned them aside so that they would not burden him.  After a moment the background noise had been reduced to a still loud, but more
manageable level.

			<description><![CDATA[ Tobias brought his hands before him and interlocked his fingers as he propped his elbows up on his knees as he looked at his new Padawan. He had opened his
mind...and now it was time to learn the second lesson.
<br>
<br>
&quot;Good...now you must do the reverse of opening your mind. You must reach inside and close the valve, so to speak. Allow the Force to decide what warrants
your attention. You must forgive me, my Padawan. Perhaps I began you too swiftly. To silence the Force within, just... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Kazuya nodded to his master, then took another deep breath and allowed his surface thoughts to settle, then disappear.  After his mind was clear it seemed as
though his hearing had gotten even sharper.  He could hear the tiniest things from the sound of an insect pollinating a flower over five meters away to the
leaves falling off of the trees and settling gently on the ground.  After a moment Kazuya gasped as everything came to him at once.
<br>
<br>
His senses opened and he could feel it... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Tobias sat down before his Padawan and crossed his own legs. His difficulty was to be expected, and they would work through it.
<br>
<br>
&quot;That is perfectly fine. There is no flaw in admitting trouble with such things, Padawan. Perhaps we will try another approach...first I want you to clear
your mind. Now focus it on what you hear around you...allow it to roll through you mind. Focus on the sound of the birds, the wind blowing, the water as it
makes waves against the coast...the flap of... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Kazuya obeyed and sat with his legs folded in front of him, but he found the request to close his eyes a bit odd, seeing as how they did not actually work
anymore.  Kazuya almost found the task difficult, since his eyelids were rarely used anymore, but he managed and began to concentrate on his breathing.
<br>
<br>
Kazuya reached out with his feelings and tried to percieve the world around him.  Kazuya knew some of the force and could use it to sense some of his
environment, but it was clumsy... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Slowly turning, Tobias took a deep breath. It was finally time...his Padawan had arrived, and as Tobias glanced at the time, he was early. As his eyes met the
atrophied ones of his Padawan, Tobias swallowed hard as he had to focus on the first challenge...
<br>
<br>
&quot;Welcome Kusanagi.&quot;
<br>
<br>
He folded his arms across his chest, and then he spoke once more.

			<description><![CDATA[ Kazuya had slept like a baby the night before, something that was uncommon with him. He normally slept lightly in fear of danger, but he had been so exhausted
from the day before that he had practically passed out as soon as he felt the softness of the bed mattress.
<br>
<br>
Kazuya entered the gardens somewhat refreshed compared to his previous state. He had one of the temple utility droids guide him to the sanctuary, then entered
by following the sound of his master&#39;s breathing. Kazuya... ]]></description>
