Star Wars Rebels: The Final Frontier

Chapter 13: A World Between Worlds

Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is...

What is this place?

A conduit through which the entire Force of the universe flows.

Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter.

Just when you think you understand the Force, you find out how little you actually know.

Train yourself to let go of everything you fear losing.

What you need, you already have. Unfortunately, you seem to be letting it all go.

I won't let them lose their way, not as I did.

The portal before the pathway ripples as a young Jedi disguised as a trooper falls through, smacking onto the pathway.

He pants, laying there for a moment as he slowly props himself up, taking a moment to collect himself and stand back to his feet.

The portal closes behind him and he looks at where he landed.

It was...

Stars, an endless void of stars. The path he stood upon was connected by multiple other paths, with doorways spread out across the

Voices were speaking out, old voices from the distant past as the young Jedi was in awe of what he was seeing.

The Force is what gives his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together.

Ezra just stood in awe as he looks at the endless paths that were laid out before him. But he immediately remembers and looks behind him. "Mako?" he calls out, searching as he saw no shade of red behind or next to him.

"Mako," he calls out again, his voice echoing through the vast void of the middle world. He takes a step forward, seeing no trace "Mako!!"

Hydan stood in his office, a pot of tea in one hand and in the other, three cups. He turns, seeing the two Mandalorians forced to walk into his office.

Sabine shoves back at them as Leo growls, trying to pull the arm away. "Please sit," Hydan asks them. But the two were shoved against the table, chairs pulled out and they were forced to sit down.

The trooper walks over and handed the data pad to Hydan. "Ah. Of course. Sabine Wren and Leo Toluk." he spoke, looking at the data pad in his hand, then sat down him. "It's no wonder you both took such an interest in the painting in the temple," he states, placing the cups out before him.

Leo crosses his arms, sitting straight as he eyes the cups before him. "The Grand Admiral has spoken highly of your talents. You know he's acquired a small collection of your work, Ms. Wren." he informs her.

Sabine just scoffs as she crosses her arms, "I'm flattered." she spoke, leaning back in her chair. "And he speaks highly of your ability to lead, Mr. Toluk. How your parents one respect the arts of the old ways," he informs the Mandalorian chief.

Leo arches his brow at him, "Par veman? vaabir gar mirdir flattering mhi cuyir going at borarir?" he questions. Sabine narrows her eyes at Hydan and shrugs. "He might think so," she answers.

Leo hums as he raised his chin momentarily. Hydan just chuckles, "Yes, yes, yes. I would never consider myself an artist, but more a... a critic, perhaps." he informs, placing the two cups before them.
