While learning, Corimae grew more fond of her new master, admiring his guidance and understanding. In turn, Corimae's abilities inadvertently began to affect Renn, who grew more attached to her as time progressed. In response, Renn purposely shut out these feelings from Corimae, hoping to avoid encouraging a violation of the Order's principle against forming attachments. This resulted in a rift between Corimae and her master, whom she came to regard as aloof and unappreciative of her potential.

Fugitive
Corimae's training came to an abrupt halt after the Jedi were  by,  of the newly-established. With all members of the Order being for, Corimae and her master were forced to go into hiding. To survive the, Corimae traveled with Renn into the of , away from the bulk of the Empire's power base.

Though she was initially shaken by this sudden parting, she nonetheless continued traveling until finally taking on, a.

To hide her Jedi heritage, Corimae altered her identity by cutting her hair and adopting an alias, "Lith". As an extra precaution, she also destroyed her, deciding that the risk of it being discovered was too great. No longer under her master's supervision, Corimae began using her power to control emotions with less restraint. Though initially reluctant to do so, she soon decided that it was necessary to ensure her own survival. Using her manipulative abilities, Corimae acquired a low profile job as a. Despite being a fugitive, Corimae found some pleasure in this new role, mainly because she no longer felt beholden to the rules of the Jedi Order. Unknown to Corimae at the time, by using her powers to exploit and manipulate others as a means of suiting her needs, she had taken her first step onto the path of the.

Captured
Following her incapacitation, Corimae was taken away to the of the, an Imperial organization of s. After being stripped of her possessions, she eventually awoke to find herself locked in a  cell with no visible doors, s or distinctive features of any kind. While Corimae initially feared that she would be interrogated and d relentlessly, to her surprise, she was instead left completely alone. During this period of isolation, Corimae spent most of her time, calling upon the teachings of the Jedi in an attempt to remain calm. Unknown to Corimae, she was being observed by an Inquisitor known simply as "the Voice".

While Corimae was meditating, the Voice  her thoughts, giving him a direct impression of her memories. She soon began to hear the Voice communicating through her mind, goading her with comments about her personal history. In particular, the Voice attempted to convince Corimae that she no longer owed the Jedi Order any loyalty. While Corimae resisted at first, the Voice grew more persistent over the course of several days, depriving her of food, water and sleep. In an effort to use Corimae's innermost doubts against her, the Voice reasoned that she had already begun to renounce her role as Jedi out of necessity, noting her experiences on Axxila. When the Voice finally mentioned Corimae's master, remarking that she had been abandoned by Renn due to his lack of faith in her, she eventually relented to his reasoning.

Inquisitor
Shortly after her submission, Corimae was released from her cell and eventually confronted in person by the Voice himself. The Voice then offered Corimae an ultimatum: either face execution for her ties to the Jedi, or join the Inquisitorius as a servant of the Galactic Empire. Becoming an Inquisitor, she learned, would not only require her to renounce the ways of the Jedi, but to also use her abilities to aid the Empire in hunting down her former allies. While she initially hesitated, Corimae soon concluded that she had no other choice, since her refusal would result in her execution. As such, Corimae chose survival over loyalty and agreed to abandon the Jedi Order in exchange for her life.

With the Voice as her new master, Corimae was subjected to a training regime that was intended to wipe away any parts of the Jedi's teachings that remained within her. As a part of this process, the Voice instructed her to relinquish her birth-name, after which she chose to adopt her alias, Lith, as a new identity. Under the Voice's tutelage, Lith was re-educated to follow the tenants of the, swearing an oath of allegiance to the. In addition, Lith's abilities with the Force were honed in order to suit her new role as a Jedi hunter. It was during this time that Lith was turned to the dark side of the Force, learning to draw power from her raw emotions.

Personality and traits
During her time as a Jedi Initiate, Corimae's ability to sense emotions, particularly her lack of control over this power, made her highly receptive to the feelings that her peers and teachers held towards her. As a result, Corimae grew up harboring a self-conscious attitude, causing her to experience paranoia. This trait led Corimae to believe only in her own interpretation of how others felt about her, often causing her to overlook their true intentions. As Corimae gained more control over her power, she gradually became less paranoid while being molded to suit the role of a diplomat. Despite this, Corimae's early experiences in the Order fueled her innermost doubts about her suitability to become a Jedi. Following her capture by the Inquisitorius, the Voice preyed on Corimae's doubts, thereby facilitating her abandonment of the Order and fall to the dark side.

Powers and abilities


Corimae possessed an inborn ability to sense the emotions of other living beings. This trait, while common among trained Jedi, not only came naturally to Corimae, but also allowed her to manipulate the feelings of those around her. To push her ability to its full potential, Corimae was trained by her master, Renn Contarus, to become a Jedi Consular, a role centered around diplomacy as opposed to violence. In particular, Renn believed that Corimae had the potential to excel as a negotiator, theorizing that, when trained properly, she could predict the actions of other living beings in tense situations, while guiding them onto a non-violent path.

After forsaking the ways of the Jedi, Lith was trained by her new master, the Voice, to use her abilities in ways that benefited her new role as an Imperial Inquisitor.
