Entry Two - Blasters and Eyes

The recorder came to life. The same red-skinned, scarred and black-robed clad alien appeared. A pensive look upon his face as he peered beyond the device itself, both lekku curled around his neck while his hands were held together behind his back.

"I spoke with an Acolyte. It has been a while since I have actually done something of the sort. To be quiet is a thing... but I've been a mute for too long, too submissive. I hold power, would be a shame to let it go to waste. So I put this Acolyte to use for me and my Master, Lord Sanguinis. But I have learnt from my mistakes as well. This time around it will be all much smoother, all more functional, safe. He is eager to learn and has always struck me as one of the best admist the current fresh batch of Acolytes. I will pass onto him my knowledge if he will prove himself up to my expectations."

A quiet hum followed alongside a wide, toothy grin.

[i]"Moving on, I kept on training. Harder. Again with Apprentice Nova- worked on Force Barrier and Force Shock. Then a brief pause. Regained some energy, had some water- and then sparred with Apprentice Vax. We exchanged blows as he assumed his Makashi form while I resorted to my Shii Cho, playing at a disadvantage. While my aggressiveness paid off at the beginning, he quickly found the upper-hand by jabbing and shimming through my wide arcs... so it developed from saber combat to Force Shocks, Pulls, Barriers and whatnot. It was a stalemate of sorts as we tired each other in the process of trying to land one heavy blow. He's good, which is helpful to back up someone as cocky as he is.

Today instead it was the time to train Shien, against the Droids. It went well enough. I can still feel the pain, useful to remind me of where and when I failed to deflect the bolts. But it wasn't enough... the Droids lack passion- I cannot feel the intensity I require to properly train. Hence why I have approached Corporal Tiberius. He has been authorized to join me in a training session, though I'd prefer to see more of those take place, so we'll have to see how the situation develops. The idea of training with an Imperial however is quite intriguing, and I am sure it will be productive, engaging and fruitful."

A brief pause, before he spoke the last words.

"Spineless no more. End recording."

And with that, the recording came to an end- again with Orgkez's brown eyes staring right into the device. [/i]
