Recs and Reviews
This story is wonderful. saraid invented a training exercise which has been used lovingly by several other authors. All about trust and the consequences of secrets and hidden emotions...[1]
Ah, so here is where Saraid has been hiding. I’ve always loved her Sentinel stories, and her TPM stuff is just as awe-inspiring. Something goes incredibly wrong as Obi-Wan and Qui Gon perform a very difficult lightsaber exercise. But sometimes the best rewards come with the price of great pain. As Raonaid pointed out to me, the ‘Grand Dance’ technique that Saraid created here is so beautiful and poignant, it has almost become canon to other TPM writers. 70k[2]
