Chapitre 203: V.3-C.1│Chaos I│
"I am leaving the Order." Qui-Gon stated to everyone within the Jedi High Council, after having discussed things with them about Anakin and his actions.
The events currently happening are prior to Anakin and the girls arriving on Mortis, which in turn means that this had already happened, even before Dooku, otherwise known as Tyranus from having nearly died.
"What do you mean, 'I am leaving the Order?' You cant possibly be..." Ki-Adi-Mundi stood up, just as others were surprised as well, since this had come out of no where.
"I am. I have seen things on the Empyrean, within its Order and I have come to a decision. It is final, and I wish to leave." Qui-Gon spoke to everyone within the room, with a calm voice that didn't have any hesitation at all.
No one knew what to say, for Qui-Gon had not really shown any signs, except the ones that would indicate that someone would want to leave. He stayed with them, even when his prodigious student had left, and even after that with the start of the Clone Wars, that weren't really Clone Wars anymore.
Qui-Gon was someone, while they didn't heavily rely on or depend on, had done many things for them and even had and would still have the opportunity to join the Council. However, he did not leave the Order, so too he didn't join the Council for reasons he himself is aware of.
In fact, the Jedi are also aware of Qui-Gon's reasoning, especially since it was Anakin that brought up many of their flaws to them.
"Wish to leave, you do?" Yoda contemplated just what this meant, especially since it would seem that Qui-Gon didn't just come here to announce his decision, something that Jedi just couldn't opt out of when they wanted.
The Jedi Order, and thus joining it is a large commitment, and in some cases would make one an unintentional indentured slave because the Jedi dont simply allow people to leave. Many Jedi, when Anakin left didn't just say they were leaving or wanted to leave, they escaped in a sense.
"I do." Qui-Gon was going to leave, with or without the Jedi High Council's permission, for he was now needed elsewhere.
All of a sudden, Master Yaddle stood up and followed Qui-Gon down to where he was. "Master Qui-Gon has made a point. I have seen things myself as well. I wish to renounce the Order myself as well." Yaddle spoke, surprising everyone again, that another of their masters, a Council member nonetheless was going to leave as well.
Yoda was conflicted here, for while the flaws of the Jedi had been pointed out to him and he had still not deemed it dangerous enough to change. He had grown old, and had seen many things.
Good things from Anakin Skywalker, the Empyrean Emperor and knew deep down that what Anakin was doing, wasn't wrong and is in fact in line with the idea of balance. He had heard and read the manuscripts that have recorded the Empyrean Orders code and it spoke of things that were both in line and against the Jedi.
It was like it was an amalgamation of things that were taught and it was something that had evolved from the Jedi, but not just the Jedi, for the dark side was included as well. He saw the teachings, he saw the students and most importantly above all else was the Force.
On Tatooine, the Force flowed like no other he had seen, and not even on Coruscant, where they had recently expelled the darkness that covered their vision from seeing anything was nothing in comparison.
Yoda saw that most of everyone within the room was reliant on him to make the final decision. He was after all the Jedi Grandmaster, so it would only make sense that he was the one to choose whether or not he could allow Qui-Gon and now Yaddle to go.
He wasn't exactly an evil person, but one couldn't call Yoda good as well, because while Yoda had done many good things, he also allowed and enabled the Jedi to become the way it is. One shouldn't put all the blame on Yoda however, as he inherited the Order as it was still dying inside and corrupt because of the things that had passed.
No matter what Yoda would or could do, wouldn't be able to fix things.
"Reason, you do have?" Yoda asked knowing full well the reasoning, but he wanted more, for he doesn't exactly want to continue letting people leave, even with the guilt he is now starting to feel.
No matter how small it is, Yoda started to imagine what it would be like to take someone away from their family. Separating parents and their children from each other was surely a traumatic experience, and with or without the Force, that is just setting up someone to live with negative emotions.
"I think I have made myself clear." Qui-Gon responded, not willing to go through the entire process of explaining, for it had been done many times before.
Just then, two other Jedi Masters made themselves known, coming from the doors and entering the Council room. These two being Luminara Unduli and Quinlan Vos. "We would both also like to leave the Order as well."
'This most definitely is going to be a fun time, isn't it.' Qui-Gon thought to himself as now he wasn't alone in his thoughts and instead, there were two others, no three others that wanted to come along and leave.
Luminara and Quinlan had their own reasons for wanting to go and leave, which would in turn have them both going towards the Empyrean along with Qui-Gon. It was like the Empyrean's Order was poaching from the Jedi and also recruiting from areas of the galaxy that the Jedi wouldn't go too.
An example being the Zabrak from Dathomir.
Maybe not with him to the Empyrean, as that is where he intended to go.
It seemed as if something changed in Yoda, something that wasn't negative but wasn't positive as well, for he only said three words that surprised everyone again. It really shouldn't either, as Yoda had let Anakin, the 'Chosen One,' leave as well. "You may leave."
"But Master Yoda-" Mundi still standing tried to protest but Yoda wasn't having any of it as it seemed like he had aged a little bit more than he looked as of this moment.
"No. May go, you can. Stop you all, I cannot." Yoda spoke, but had a little more to say. "Change I will, I see. Jedi... you all are no more, but..." Yoda sighed, before making a gesture and not saying any more and having everyone be dismissed.
There was much to talk about now, but things would be getting more and more hectic for both the Jedi and the Republic now that they have more people leaving.
Reactions from many would vary, and even Obi-Wan would question himself and the Jedi, for Qui-Gon was leaving to another place that was like the Jedi but not like the Jedi at the same time. For they didn't become peacekeepers of the galaxy in the Empyrean and they lived completely normal lives, aside from having to learn about the Force and then go on to do the things that they want.
Freedom.

Time was starting to move again, as Anakin and the girls had finally left Mortis, but there was something different about all of them, for they were not the same as they once were. In fact, the amount of time spent within the realm of Mortis was around two years, meaning that everyone was older now.
The strange thing however, was that Aayla had in fact not given birth because the time on this planet was entirely strange. While Ahsoka aged and everyone else aged as well, because of their immortality, they would not grow old, but the progress and development of the fetus had stopped.
Anakin connected this to two things, the first being Mortis itself, even after having lost its majesty because of him, there was still things here that would leave one wondering... Then there was also the fact that their child was also connected to the Force and had gone into stasis as such because he had both cut off but still allowed the Force to remain on Mortis.
This was scary and forced Anakin to start reevaluating what he should and should not do around Aayla, for he doesn't want his future child to be harmed. They also created something that would be able to store everything, meaning all of the Sand of Time within a specialized device to keep all of it contained until further notice.
Anakin most definitely wasn't about to leave and they had plenty more time before Mortis would be destroyed. He could sense it and so could the others as well, but unfortunately this training trip was coming to an end despite spending time within.
It would seem the time limit on Mortis' expiration date was two years.
The time spent on Mortis was like a blip and upon leaving they had all fallen asleep once again, only to awaken and see that Mortis, or the monolith of Mortis was not there anymore.
Some things had changed when it comes to relationships, especially when it came to Zannah, for she was starting to come around, and was now a full on lover of Anakin's. The only thing left to do was marry her to himself and then it was official.
The only two left then after that would be Ahsoka and the Daughter, whom everyone decided that she should have another name. Anakin suggested the name, Eve, but didn't elaborate on why this name was chosen and everyone just went along with it.
So did the Daughter, now having a name that is separate from how one would be called. She enjoyed the name, but that didn't mean anything for she was rather putt off by Anakin.
He had after all just killed her entire family, and that was definitely something to put a hamper on the way she feels about him, because this was not what she had envisioned. Neither had Anakin envisioned this as well, but stuff just happens.
More specifically, the Force just happens.
So, while two years had passed, Eve had not forgiven Anakin for what he had done, because who would? However, that bond, the Dyad bond still existed between the both of them, meaning that there was something to the two of them being together.
Hell, she had even grown shorter as a result of the Dyad and the gathering of both the dark side and light side within herself. If even the Force ships it, how could Eve go against it?
Then there was Ahsoka, whom was starting to develop more and more herself, coming into her adult form and she was quite tall as well, montrals included of course. Anakin hadn't really done anything with her as while she was now older, around seventeen years of age and fast approaching that eighteen mark, he didn't feel it was time for anything just yet.
Things would probably happen in the future to allow one to see the development of their relationship any further, but for now one only needs to know is that Anakin had grown closer to everyone.
Onto other things, included of which were the progress of the group in terms of capabilities, as with another person added to the Dyad, everyone benefited. Anakin received an increase to his and so too did the others as a result, especially with Eve being incredibly powerful herself.
Overall, everything was great, or at least somewhat great for Anakin now had to deal with a woman, whose family he had killed. It wasn't exactly something all that great, and would require some time but now she was forced to begrudgingly come along, for Anakin and the girls were heading back towards the Empyrean. There was no change in time within the galaxy even with the group having grown throughout two years. There was some things that Anakin had missed however, as he would come to discover and things still happening right this instance that would certainly be of interest.

The Senate was aflame with discussion as the people were preparing themselves for the chaos of the negotiations to come is a hot topic.
The galaxy as a whole was waiting in anticipation of the things that were happening as this would decide whether or not the conflict would continue, for no one wanted to live under the constant threat of danger.
That didn't mean that those higher up would listen, for war is profitable after all...
