"There's always hope." Jor said quietly, as if remembering something. He shook his head slightly and stared into the fire. "There's hope for everyone. But as a Jedi the most important person you need to look out for is yourself. That sounds selfish but when i say it i'm thinking of all those who you can save."
"If and when the Jedi come face to face with the Emperor, we'll do everything in our power to save him, but not at the risk of ourselves. Cain's been saved before. He's turned back and forth a few times, at the cost of many Jedi's lives." Jor said.

"I wonder if Cain ever was truly 'saved'," Kyo thought out loud, "I wonder what would cause a man who had so much... to pursue a life of darkness so relentlessly," Kyo's thoughts brought him back to Hatori. What had caused this boy to turn like he did? What lies led him down this path, so far away from the innocent bliss of the boy in the holocron? There was much that Kyo might have learned from Hatori, as they had both lived lives struggling for identity and a sense of belonging. That which drove Kyo's determination to do all the good he has done... the fact that this same feeling could be used to twist one into darkness, it seemed inconceivable.

"I understand why to be kumori is to be alone for most people will condemn themselves and that path only leads to the darkside, but perhaps if I overcome that then you may become my friend." said Zilfer to Yuki before the take off down to the planet.
Zilfer had remained silent through most of the ceremony, of the burning of Hatori's body, it was beinging to die down as his visor finally turned to Kyo when he had asked a simple question.
"He was saved by love, a man name Jack had twisted him so far however even he was not enough to keep her out of his life..... What would save Alex, would also be what made him come full circle. He was obessed with prolonging her life, that he began to dwelve into the darkness once again. Anything to save her.... but we all have seen what can happen when one cannot find their way out of the dark." said Zilfer wondering if that's anything of what Kyo had expected to hear.

The Pellaeon class star destroyer Hyperion dropped out of hyperspace in the Ilum system and formed up with the Saucy Mare. While the Saucy Mare finished loading all the supplies she could into Dragoons in a constant convoy of ships going to the surface, she commenced docking with the Hyperion and started transferring her all over her crew over to the newer ship. The Mare's replacement had arrived. ____________________________________________
Behind everyone at Hatori's burning, no one seemed to notice at first the break in the snow. the crater which the Mare had made was starting to fill in again as if something from under ground was pushing through the ice and filling the gap. The ground started to rumble as a single crystal pylon started jutting up from the ice.
Jor turned to look and held his hand to his forehead to help block out the sun. The first Pylon was joined by a second and then soon by a third. Crystal Pylons were jutting from the surface of Ilum like crazy, extending skyward, growing from their base which extended deep into the crystal caves. He really wished he had his helmet, he'd have been able to magnify the event but as it was he'd just have to watch the structure grow from a distance.
He looked behind him at the burning corpse then back at the crystals growing in the distance. "And behold in the shadow of death. New life." Jor said more to himself then anyone.

Tycen stepped off one of the first dragoons to land, The cold was something he wasn't used too, And has never liked. Feeling the color run from his face and his finger tips start to go numb, Dressed in four layers of all black clothing he stuck out like a sore thumb in contract with the white snow, And gray sky. Again choosing to remain out of conversation, Or any sociable environment in general.
As armed solders moved supplies and equipment from the dragoons to locations designated by the unit commander, Or captain, However Jor was doing it. Tycen stood Off to the side of the dragoon he land on, Datapad barely in hand, Sending a message to his sister who remained with the Memento Mori, In the core system. Afterward he closed the datapad and returned it to the inside pocket of his lavish almost dinning like jacket, One which he has kept with him since the union.
Tycen, came to stand a few feet away from Jor when he said out of nowhere. "And behold in the shadow of death. New life." He thought about the statement watching as the crystals began to form.

Yuki looked and turned to Zilfer. "You said that you had no friends and that Alex was closest to you and that's why it was so easy for him to persuade you to join him in the darkside. Then you said that it wasn't the light that saves someone from the darkness, it is friends and companions. Well I am trying to be your friend, I was trying before and I'm trying now." Yuki sighed. "Why was Cain more of a friend in your mind then anyone else you knew, including me?" Yuki was then silent for the rest of the trip.
OOC: The Fortress of Solitude is growing! But who threw the Kryptonian crystal in the ground? lol IC: Yuki stood close to Zilfer, although she was hurt by his words she could not distance herself from him. It seemed useless but she found she loved this man. As she watched the fire burn Hatori and die down she mumbled to herself. "Death comes to all... everyone but me..." She said melancholy, remembering how she was supposed to be dead, killed by other members of a council she was on. The Mitsukai Elder Council of Tishi. Yuki also remembered that the man she was in love with at the time, didn't stick up for her. Yuki leaned on Zilfer, now saddened by these memories. 'Maybe it's better to forget...' Yuki thought to herself.

In his own cryptic manner Zilfer had communicated something very profound in his statement about Cain. That being anything powerful enough to save was also capable of condemning. That monster... he was a man once. A husband and a father... and just from the way Zilfer spoke of him, Kyo could tell he was a good friend. Somewhere along the way he lost himself. Kyo would not forget the lesson Hatori's death had taught him here today.
He was silent for a while, thinking over all the things that had been said when suddenly the new temple began to rise up from the ground, the crystals forming together in the distance. Kyo watched with an awed look on his face, the new temple was truly quite beautiful, "Quite fitting..." Kyo said simply.

"The bond between Teacher and student can be strong, I'll not risk Cain getting another hold over me." said Zilfer to Yuki who began to lean on him, he frowned. Looking up to the jedi temple, he wondered if this place would ever be defiled like that of the Jedi temple on Coruscant. A smirk then crawled across his face. "Now all it needs is bathrooms."

Jor's smile instantly turned to a frown when he had heard Zilfer's comment about bathrooms. "dammit." he mumbled to himself. he'd gotten the reports of the Hyperion's arrival and the crew transfer. supplies were being shipped to the surface by the shuttle load. but in all his planning and Six's design he had left out the god damn bathrooms.
Continuing to grumble to himself he said "I'm a Jedi, not an Architect." He started walking towards the new temple carrying the longsword he had made from Hatori's hand. "Alright everyone, lets go pick out our rooms."

Elisa walked in awe as the new Jedi Temple grew from the ground. It was a wondrous sight which made her wonder what the Jedi of old would have said. The design was not normal but its natural feeling and the way the temple interacted with the light and snow she would consider it a wonder of the galaxy.
As she walked inside she continued to marvel at the temple. She walked around looking up into the crystal as she walked down the main hall. She noticed several large rooms off to either side which seemed to be designed for the Library, Training Rooms and all the other tasks. As she continued she finally came to the rooms. She looked into the door of one on the right. It was a small room with just enough space for a bed, meditation mat and dresser. She was hoping to find one with more space so she could set up a small workshop. She continued down the hull and walked into a room on the left. She looked at it; like the last it was not much space, but off to the right was another doorway which led to another room. It was perfect place to set up shop once they got settled in. Elisa laid down on the crystal bed which would need a mattress and pulled out a communicator. "Jor, I found a room. Is there anything I can do to help out?" Elisa said as she waited for a response. She just looked up at the ceiling and watched how the light interacted. It was mesmerizing and she felt at home.

Jor walked with Elisa into the Temple. It was strange to say the least. He'd never seen a structure composed completely of crystal before and it was impressive, as well as a little frightening that Six had uncovered this technology after having only scratched the surface of what Kosh left behind on Epsilon III.
When Elisa came to the first room that was small without a whole lot of space Jor figured it would be as good a place as any. He let his amphistaff uncoil into his hand and he stabbed the creature into the ground at the center of the room. It's pointed tail penetrated the crystal and the staff remained ridged, standing in the rooms center. he pointed at it the creatures head. "Stay, i'll be right back." he said. He threw his small satchel containing his lightsaber parts onto the floor next to the amphistaff.
He moved through the temple some more until he reached a hall near what he supposed was the temples center. There was a simple crystal podium at one side and a very round, dead flat floor of a nearly glass like crystal. This room was perfect. He moved to the podium and laid the longsword down flat on it.
Once that was finished he moved to the rooms center and placed his holocron down in the center of the round hall. He pushed the button on it's base and the green cube started to glow. The holoprojector sprang to life and Keiran Halcyon appeared before him.
"Hi grandpa." Jor said.
The hologram looked around and raised an eyebrow. "New temple."
Jor smiled. "Yeah, what do you think?"
Keiran's face remained ambiguous. "i suppose it will have to do. What about your lightsaber?"
Jor snorted and gave a short laugh. "It'll get it done grandpa stop worrying about it. Just turn your recorder on, i'm about to make some history."
Keiran's face lit up. "Really? I love history. I was built for history."

Tycen moved into the temple after Jor and the others, This crystals temple was truly a wondrous thing, He watched his own reflecting in the walls has he moved, A large dark figure resembling something of a sith. After a good look around he found Jor once again, This time speaking with someone over a holo-cam. Though Tycen hated to interrupt he felt he needed to do this. Moving over to him, Tycen gripped the lightsaber that was strapped around his belt with his left hand.
"Jor, I would like you to keep this," He raised it upward putting it in clear sight. "I think i'll wait to make myself a real one as a Jedi, then keep one i stole from a merc." He told him waiting for the object to be taken.

Awakening from his trail Ravenous eyes opened slowly to reveil that one of the irises had changed color slowly but surely. Noticing the new structure before him...that and that everyone was walking into the new jedi temple he assumed. Jumping off the ledge he was once on his body becoming more adjusted to the world's setting walked in with awe and wonder in his mind.
Glancing along the crystal surface he took every last detail he could before his mind told him to do as Jor had said earlier 'Where shall I place my room...'. Strolling along the hallways and varying rooms finding this temple to be rather similar to his father's castle. Finding a room near the back of the crystal castle he made his comfort and home for the time being.

As everyone started to head into the newly grown Jedi temple, Zilfer went in after everyone had already entered. Everyone seemed to be picking rooms, however Zilfer decided to explore the temple, half with the force and half with his physical body. It was an interesting structure to say the least, but it wasn't the oddest thing he had seen. Finally he found a gradual path heading upwards, towards the top of the structure, and he wondered how far it went. Soon he was getting further away from the main group, and even though most of the structure was crystal, it distorted shapes making it hard to tell if there was something on the other side, and some parts of the hallways appeared to be mirrors. Zilfer found a rather thin part of a wall near the top where he could see through and saw he was quite a ways up already. There was a circular room nearby that looked spacious enough for a meditating chamber, he figured he'd set up here, for now. Unless someone came by and wanted this room. Zilfer had brought nothing with him, for all that he owned was mostly upon his person.

Jor raised an eyebrow at Tycen. He wondered why he was giving away his lightsaber but mostly he wondered how the man talked in all green text like that. "What in the world would make you think i want your lightsaber?" He asked without accepting the weapon. "i mean if you want to make one yourself thats good for you but i don't want your old one. You can rip it apart to use for parts for your new one if you like."
Jor shrugged and moved back over to the podium where he closed his eyes and expanded his sphere of influence over the entire temple. He quickly found Kyo's fairly unique mind and focused in on it. Yo, kiddo. Come find me. I'm somewhere in the middle of this damn place.
