Your trial begins

As you enter, the room is empty. There is only one person in the room in front of you. A temple guard. A masked deep toned man, whose sole purpose is to defend the Jedi temple throughout his life without having any connection to anybody.

Temple guard: Are you here to face the Trial of Knighthood?

Lana: Yes! What am I supposed to do now?

Temple guard: I will decide if you are worthy of the title or not.

Lana: How? Do I have to fight you?

Temple guard: A Jedi knight is not only chosen by their fighting skills.

Lana: So what should I do then? Do I have to answer questions?

Temple guard: No. You have one goal now in this room. Defeat me.

Lana: Ah, so it will be a fight after all! How original!

Temple guard: Ready yourself. I will not be holding back. If you feel you are not ready this is the last chance to walk back through that door.

Lana: Not going to happen!

Temple guard: Many have faced the trial. Most do not succeed. Some do not even survive. Will you too be one of them?

Lana: No!

Temple guard: Are you afraid?

Lana: No! I am a Jedi, I have no fear!

Temple guard: We shall see. You have had your chance to turn back.

He ignites his yellow dual lightsaber and you do the same with your single sabre. He just stands there for a few seconds, then you decide to attack first. You try to hit him, but he easily deflects all your attempts to reach him.

Temple guard: Is this all you have got? How could your master allow you to even think of ever passing this trial with this set of skills?

Lana: Just wait, I have barely begun!

You keep trying but the result is all the same. You are nowhere near as skilled with the lightsaber as he is...

Temple guard: You have had your chance to attack. Now it is my turn, padawan.

He strikes you a few times, each pushing you back one step at a time... The sheer strength he uses is something you can't match. You lose more and more ground every moment. Suddenly, he reaches out for you with his hand and lifts you in the air with the ****, making you unable to move.

Lana: Ah! Let go of me!

Temple guard: How unfortunate. Your master must have extremely overestimated your skills by sending you here.

Lana: He knows I can pass this! And I will not fail him...!

Temple guard: Brave words, yet words will not save you.

He steps to you and holds his lightsaber to your throat.

Temple guard: Are you afraid of me?

Lana: N... No!

Temple guard: I could end your life with a single swing of my sword. Does this not fill you with fear?

Lana: ...No...!

Temple guard: But I can sense your fear. You can not hide it. A Jedi must have no fear or they are doomed to fall to the dark side.

Lana: I am not afraid of you!

Temple guard: So you say.

He steps back and lets you go again.

Temple guard: Show me your resolve and fight harder or you will fail.

You try your best, all the tricks you know, even try to **** push him, to unbalance him... But all your efforts fail...

Temple guard: Dare to use the **** against me? At least you can say you tried. Let me show you what a real Jedi is capable of when using the ****.

He pushes you against the wall with the ****. He gets closer and grabs your lightsaber, but you don't let go of it... He swings his at your arm, when you reluctantly release your sabre from your hand, to avoid losing your arm... He then **** freezes you as you are.

Temple guard: A lightsaber is the life of a Jedi. You have lost your lightsaber. You have lost your life. The trial is over, you have failed.

Lana: No, I have not!

Temple guard: I decide when the trial is over. Accept your failure and you may yet live. Not all padawans are destined to become Jedi knights. You are one of them.

Lana: NO! I will defeat you!

Temple guard: And how do you intend to do that?

Lana: I... I will find a way...! I always do!

Temple guard: Are you afraid of me now? You have even lost your lightsaber.

Lana: No...!

Temple guard: You are filled with fear. If you do not admit it, it will consume you in time. If it consumes you, you will fall to the dark side and you must be eliminated. I should save some future work now.

He swings his sabre but doesn't hurt you... He just... cuts your Jedi robe to pieces!
