even on dantooine, news of recent events travelled - and as bastila traveled closer to the core planets, she gained access to more detailed information. from this, she had learnt some of the goings on of this era. she had learnt of the empire, of the late emperor, of darth vader. similar, in some respects, to the time she hailed from, but... not the same.
feeling such a presence, she’s quick to put a name to it, and quick to feel fear. she is not prepared for a confrontation with someone so strong in the dark side. she knows the cost of such confrontations, remembering well as her fellow jedi fell before darth revan’s strength. she knew that alone, she would not be the one to triumph in a battle.
but perhaps it wouldn’t have to come to that. there were many pains in her situation, many facts that she prefered not to think of, but there was one shining advantage. no one knew who she was. no one understood the significance of her gift. if she could keep that secret, there was no need for her to become someone of note - not yet.
“i am just passing through.” she said, hating the passivity of her words, but believing in their necessity. “i don’t want trouble.”
