​​ Fernanda was in the meditation chamber along with Kat and a handful of other Jedi and padawans. She was in deep meditation. She was seeing things. Going through visions.

​"Fernanda." A ominous voice says.

​"Huh?" she asks and looks around.

​"Come, child." The voice says.

​"Who...who are you?" She asks.

​​She looks around the meditation room. Everything was hazy and seemed like time had frozen. She stands up and peers outside the room. She glanced around at the base.

​"Coooommmme" The voice says calling her.

​"Where?" She asks.

​"Follow my voice."

​​She glances around the base again and sees what looks like a little Utai staring at her.

​"Is that...you?" she asks as she starts walking toward it.

​​He takes off running in the opposite direction.

​"Hey! Wait!" She screams and takes off after him.

​​She was running through the empty streets of the town that the base was stationed at, following the little Utai. It was nearing a sloped path leading down to the lower levels of the planet and continued to run down it.

​"For a stubby little fella, you sure are fast!" Fernanda yells after him as she starts heading down the sloped path.

​​It curved around the sinkhole all the way to the bottom. After one long turn, they were right below the base. The Utai stops and stares at Fernanda. It walks to the edge of the path and steps off, falling toward the water at the bottom of the sinkhole. Fernanda watched in shock as the little Utai splashes into the water and disappears. He never resurfaced.

​"Come." The same ominous voice says calling Fernanda.

​"Who are you? Where are you?" She asks.

​"Join us." The voice says.

​​She stares down at the pool of water and sees a large face just below the surface staring back at her.

​"Jump." The voice says.

​​Fernanda takes a deep breath and steps onto the edge before stepping off and falling. She splashes into the water and everything goes dark. She didn't feel anything. After a few moments of silence and darkness, she saw a light at the end of a tunnel. She wasn't floating. She was now in knee high water in a cave. She was wading through to get a closer look at the light. She was nearing it. It was a bright blue light. She took three steps closer and the light turned to a dark purple with a blood red mix.

​"What?" she asks herself.

​​She steps around the corner and watches Bat in a fierce saber duel with his blue sabers in hand as he slashed back and forth with a dark figure wielding two purple bladed light sabers. The only person she knew who did that was...Ian. She lets out a gasp as she watches Bat get impaled by the two sabers and the light shines on the figure, showing his dark armor and his distinctive helmet.

​"No!" She screams and runs toward Bat.

​​Ian fades away, deeper into the cave along with Bat's corpse.

​"No! No! Come back!" she screams, running after them.

​​She heard a loud splash behind her and she slowly turns around to see a large native Nos Monster towering above her.
