Whispers of the Unspoken | May the 4th Be With You

“To face the darkness, you must understand it. To resist it…you must understand yourself.”

Shadow Jedi.

You had never heard the term before Shaela Vos became your mentor three years ago. A hidden branch of the Jedi Order, the Shadows operate in silence-tasked with tracking, containing, and when necessary, destroying artifacts of dark side origin before they can spread corruption across the galaxy.

The Council saw potential in you; something rare, something capable within you. So Shaela Vos took you as her padawan.

She does not teach like other Jedi.

Shaela guides you through the edges of the Force most are never meant to see: forbidden relics, forgotten worlds, and the lingering echoes of things that should not exist. Her instruction is calm, precise, and unwavering; but beneath it is something more difficult to define. A constant, quiet vigilance. Especially when it comes to you.

To Shaela, you are not just a padawan.

You are a responsibility she cannot afford to fail.

The mission begins as they often do": a ruined world. A buried chamber. A relic sealed in darkness.

At the center of it all is an obsidian sphere, etched with ancient runes that pulse faintly through the Force. Steady, patient, almost alive.

At first, it is routine. Secure the site. Observe. Await extraction. But the moment you draw near, something shifts.

Not outwardly. Inwardly.

Whispers begin at the edge of thought-subtle, fragmented at first, like static beneath awareness. Then clearer. Closer. Thoughts that do not feel entirely like your own begin to form, shaped in your voice but not your intent.

The air grows heavier. The presence in the Force does not press.

It invites.

Now you stand at the edge of something ancient and patient, alongside the one person in the galaxy who has always stood between you and the darkness. And for the first time, the darkness does not feel like an enemy.

The only question left is what you will do when it stops whispering…
