Shertanwen - Under The Willow

“I suggest running at first opportunity.” “Where to?” Qui-Gon asks, heart sinking. They are alone, they are surrounded, and while his concentration and awareness are returning, he isn’t quite there yet. Then the beasts are led in. “You are fucking kidding me,“ Tannisen says in disbelief. "I refuse to be eaten by a nexu,” Qui-Gon says. He likes the large predators, but this one radiates hate and pain into the Force, and is already half-mad. “This is the stupidest execution ever,” Tannisen mutters as the acklay is set free. “That won’t keep it from being effective.”

I promised triptych, but it somehow grew bigger )))) Ok, so the AU is that Anakin didn’t turn to the Dark side, but fought Sidious and won. But he was seriously wounded and soon died (after all, the whole point of his life was to fulfill the Prophecy). Padme gave birth to the twins, but she also did not live long afterwards. Jedi council, being the jerks they are, decided that since Anakin broke the Code, he shouldn’t be given the proper jedi funeral. So Anakin was buried with Padme. Obi-wan raised the twins, and when he himself died, he reunited with Padme and Anakin. *_*

 And yes, in the last picture he is holding Anakin’s snippet and padawan braid.

it’s also a part of my flower meaning series: the flowers here are-

Camellia - The camellia flower speaks to the heart and expresses positive feelings. It’s most common meanings are: desire or passion refinement, perfection & excellence, faithfulness & longevity

Gladiolus -The gladiolus flower symbolizes honor and remembrance, but it has other meanings too. It can also symbolize the following: Strength of character, faithfulness, sincerity and integrity, infatuation, never giving up

they both share those flowers.

The Sith Academy

By Imperial Law any and all beings, whether Sith or slave, found with any degree of Force sensitivity be taken to the Sith Academy or the Sith Preparatory School.

Beings from age 5-15 go to the Sith Preparatory School which is located on Korriban. The younglings are taught within classes of their own age groups, under several different teachers. The teachers cover the basics of math, science, writing, literature, programming, history, music, art, basic combat, and use of the Force.

Math is fairly straight forward.

Science can be branched out into specialties, but they do more of this at the Academy.

The reading, writing, and literature are all covered in Basic as well as some rudimentary (common) Sith.

Programming should cover all the basics with dealing with computers, droids, datapads, and etc.

History is focused on the Sith Empire (obviously).

Music is mostly revolved around the use of musical instruments since learning to play one at a young age helps develop other skills.

Art is usually in the form of the visual medias.

Younglings are not given a lightsaber at the Prep School (for obvious reasons), but they are taught the basics of forms and some unarmed combat techniques.

At this stage, the younglings are taught basic control over their range of emotions and how best to discern and feel them. This then will lead to better utilization of the Force.

After age 15, beings are sent to the Sith Academy, also located on Korriban. At the Academy, the initiates and acolytes are no longer grouped by age. Rather, they are grouped by skill, and later on, specialties. The courses are more specific and diverse. While there are teachers and instructors at the academy, the students are grouped (by skill) under an overseer. The overseers personally keeps track of the students’ progress and grades. Eventually leading them into a specialty.

The different “classes” further in specialization, but not all are mandatory. In fact, the only ‘mandatory’ courses are Combat and Force Techniques (usually for the slaves or latecomers). But many at the Academy choose to further their education, especially ones that come from established Sith family lines.

Brief Overview of the Courses:

Literature

Classic Sith literature

Also language classes regarding common, formal, and classic Sith dialects

Writing

Writing can be focused on poetry and prose

Or also in the documentation, for the purpose of writing historical and scientific articles

Math

Advanced arithmetic courses. Like all of them, idk (I don’t like math lol)

History

Ancient History of the Sith, pre arrivals of Exiles

Post exile arrival history

History of the greater galaxy, including the Jedi and Republic

Programming

Also deals with slicing

Coding hardware and software

Art

Drawing, painting, sculpting, metal-working, etc.

Music

Continuation of one’s musical instruments

Also added are:

Sith Opera classes

Dances, formal or otherwise (think ballroom)

Science

Sith alchemy

Xenobiology

Basic medical programs

Biotic sciences

Genetic engineering

Beast taming

Combat

Lightsaber forms

Hand-to-hand combat

Use of other (improvised) weapons

Force Techniques

Sith sorcery

Lightening is a favorite

Mind tricks, or how to protect one’s mind from said tricks

Telekinetic abilities

From time to time, Lords and Darths will go through the Academy and talk to the overseers when looking for a new apprentice. Overseers are usually good at advising/guiding a Sith toward a path that is suited to their strengths. (Doesn’t mean they have to be nice about it *coughHARKUNcough*) The “graduation” can occur at any age, so long as an overseer approves that a Sith has adequate training AND a Lord/Darth chooses them. Sometimes, groups of Sith may be chosen to rise to the rank of Apprentice at a similar time. Then the Academy may throw a small congratulatory ceremony for them.

Deaths occur at the Academy. It’s just a thing that happens from time to time, though at the Prep School, the goal is to NOT get the younglings killed.

The Academy provides lodging for its students, like “on campus dorms”. If the student has family residing on Korriban, they may live “off campus”. (Korriban, has a planet wide public transportation system)
