          quinlan woke up with a sore neck, he sat up and felt a few bones crack, “what on chyron belt just happened?” he said shaking the grogginess that was currently preventing him from fully connecting with the force. because that’s why he couldn’t feel any of the others, right? he tried to concentrate, placing his palms firmly on the ground, trying to sense where he might be. and that was one of the worst ideas he had, the emotions were overwhelming, making him for the first time in many years, yelp in surprise. quinlan had used his psychometry for some gruesome cases, but what he was picking up from these woods, it was beyond anything he had felt.

         he stood up, shook his limbs a little bit, and sat down crossed legged, i am one with the force, he started with a whisper, and the force is with me, quinlan was determined to find someone, or at least figure out where he was, finally he was able to pick something nearby. “thank the stars” he said before picking up the trail, he almost forgot to check for her lightsaber, but there it was safely pinned to his side. quinlan reached his objective faster than he thought, and that was considering whatever it was that had made every part of him ache.  

          “skywalker!” he called out with a smile on his face walking towards the figure, “hey anakin, is that uptight master of yours around as well?” quinlan loved obi-wan but by the stars he needed to lighten up a bit.

    in the short time he had been on batuu, quinlan had learned that it had been decades since the last memories he held. and that he had died and came back to life. whether it was after his troops betrayed him -that had been a shocker- or from old age, it was anyone’s guess. quinlan was mad that he didn’t know whether he survived the great purge, but even more so that if he did survive he had not helped the rebellion. so either way life sucked. but here he was, seemingly getting a second chance, at what exactly? again, anyone’s guess.

    he kept trying to find others. it was impossible to believe that the jedi had been hunted down, eradicated. but if he had come back, surely there would be others. he had gone over and over again through each particular force aura, the results had been zero to none. still he kept trying. quinlan was not one to give up easily. 

    “finally” quinlan said picking a familiar aura, he hurried up to reach them, the memories seemed like a lifetime away, he wondered what would he find, an old woman? he could only hope. “oh kriff” quinlan said looking at the very young alyrisa, “please tell me you didn’t die too?”

     there were so many things quinlan still didn’t have an answer for, he had not been long on -welll now he knew it was batuu- this place and while had bumped into a few people and the interactions had only left him with even more questions. he was struggling to accept that the jedi order was gone, that they had been hunted, eradicated. no wonder he couldn’t connect to the force. sure he had noticed signatures, several on this planet, which was strange, even in times where force sensitive children were a cause for joy. he could only imagine what it must have been like during the purge, and now, he wasn’t sure what force sensitive people did these days.

     quinlan gave it another shot at those he knew, he was eventually going to visit kenobi, he just wasn’t ready yet. no sign of aayla or luminara, but there it was anakin again. skywalker. quinlan left his spot of meditation and ventured to follow the force signature. and to his surprise, he was wrong again. because now he was staring at a woman. he tried to leave before being noticed, but he was so taken aback that he stepped on a branch. he used to be so stealthy, if anything he was sure that was why the order kept him around, what happened to him? “i am sorry ma’am” he apologized, “i mistook you for someone else”
