Kad kicked the ball around under the watchful eye of Kom’rk. It was more like running at the ball, colliding with it, and then chasing it, but he was giggling happily. Ny was relieved to see him behaving like a normal toddler. Sometimes he seemed so serious and grim that she wondered if a carefree infancy had passed him by somehow, and that all Force-users were doomed to be plugged directly into the awful reality of existence from birth whether they wanted to be or not. She could see it in Jusik and Scout sometimes. Their eyes could make them look older than time. She couldn’t define it. No doubt Kina Ha’s gaze gave away her Force-user status too, but Ny had no idea what a normal Kaminoan’s eyes looked like, and anyway—Kina Ha was ancient.
