âSo Iâm going to make that,â you glanced at Calâs glowing green lightsaber with a furtive point of your hand, âfrom this?â
The small Kyber crystal felt pathetic and pointless in your hand as you looked between it and the lightsaber. It seemed like surely the one couldnât truly come from the other. How was the dinky little crystal going to power up such an advanced weapon?
âOf course,â Cere offered you a kind smile and a warm hand on your back as she ushered you over to the workbench at the back of the Mantis, her ragtag crewâs ship, âall the materials and items you need to craft your own saber are right there.

âOkay,â you whispered to yourself as you put the crystal in the center of the bench, âletâs give this a go then.â
