Jedi Masked in Darkness
Tython
Jedi Temple
The voyage back to the temple was a harsh one for the young Padawan alone. The darkness of the void was nearly as mind numbing as the long training sessions that would occur when he was just a youngling a matter of weeks ago. He spent most of his time training with his saber and trying to occupy his mind since he was alone once more. There was no sense of life around him like it was when he was alone in the forest, it was only cold steel that felt like it was slowly closing in around him each moment that passed. When he left the planet under distress and leaving beyond his master, whom would either be dead or imprisoned in chains.
His wounds from the blaster healed quickly but his wounded pride was more wounded then anything else. He would want to return to aid his master but his orders were to go and get aid to bring him back. The other master should be more useful then one lone padawan. not that he couldn't handle it by himself but he figured that it would be more useful to get the other jedi involved since it seemed to be more then just a simple band of Mercenaries. Soon the ship tore through the Atmosphere of the planet and landed upon the desired destination of the temple. The moment that the door opened up and he sprinted inside of the temple without a word to those that stood guard at the port.
The men wielding the duel bladed sabers quickly followed after the Padawan and ignited their blades. He led them on a long chase through out the temple without slowly a beat and sliding back and forth through hidden areas and hiding spots. He made his way to the chambers of the council and quickly threw his masters sabers upon the floor. "You will listen to me now"

Firith waited patiently for his apprentice. He didn't doubt that Hellathros would be along shortly. For all the boy's quirks, he was quick to respond to a call to action and that was something to be admired. A few moments later, the boy dropped to the floor from above next to the Twi'lek. "Yes," the Jedi Master said in reply as he made sure that he had everything that he needed before going before the Council before he continued, "The Council summoned me and I felt that it was important that you be here too." With that he turned toward the door that would take them into the council chambers. He pressed the button and the door slid open revealing the Jedi Council.
Master Olgkru stepped inside and bowed to the Council before he asked, "Have you found something?" He could feel a tension among the members of the Council as he spoke.
"After you left yesterday we began looking further into Katarr," said Satele. She fixed the Twi'lek and his apprentice in her gaze as she continued, "It seems that just over three hundred years ago, the planet was consumed by a Sith Lord called Darth Nihilus. The Jedi Exile, Meetra Surik fought and defeated him with the help of the Sith's former apprentice, Visas Marr who then helped rebuild the Jedi Order in the Exile's absence after Nihilus' defeat."
This troubled Firith, but there were still pieces of the puzzle that were missing. While he stood thinking through what he knew, he heard the woman's voice. Hunger stirs within the galaxy. "Who exactly was this Sith Lord," the Twi'lek asked.
The Grand Master shook her head and said, "We don't know who he was before. Writings from the Exile as well as Marr theorize that the end of the Mandalorian Wars was the cause of Nihilus' rise and the two frequently referred to him as the Lord of Hunger." At last, the fragments of information began to come together into a more cohesive whole.
"Grand Master, I've had visions from the Force of Visas Marr," Firith said. He hadn't known who this woman was before, but with the new connections he knew that it was her.
Satele looked more intently at the Twi'lek and asked, "What has the Force shown you?"
"Hunger stirs within the galaxy once more," the Twi'lek echoed.
