Star Wars: Wild Heart/Chapter 2

Note: This chapter is a work in progress. The Trandoshan studied me, but just as he was about to say something, the Zabrak tapped his shoulder. He snorted, and walked away to attend to the nearby fire.

"We are explorers hailing from the Prime Ecumenopolis," said the Zabrak.

My eyes widened. Why would explorers from Coruscant be exploring an Outer Rim planet not apart of the Republic? From what I knew then, the Galactic Republic wants nothing to do with any territory not aligned with them. The Republic already knew of Orto's existence in the galaxy.

''"Why did you come to Orto? It doesn't have anything special to the Republic, or does it?" I said.''

The Zabrak giggled.

"It does have something special. So special in fact that they sent the two of us to find it."

''"What are you looking for?" I asked.''

"We are looking for someone just like you. Someone who is strong with the Force."

The Trandoshan stood up from the log he was sitting on, and looked at the Zabrak and me. He was calmer now, I could tell from his face that he had great relief.

"The Force is an energy field that is created by all living beings. It accounts for the cosmic, physical, unifying, and living aspects of life," said the Trandoshan.

His explanation was very narrow, but I understood what he said. But what does it mean if something is strong with the force? Does it matter if you were an animal or a plant? Sentient or non-sentient? There is always specifics that should be known to everyone wanting to learn about a subject. Before I was able to ask a question regarding to these matters, the Trandoshan ignited the metal tube on his waist, and threw it down the tunnel at a wild Anooba. The creature was beheaded by the blade, and fell down to the ground dead. The tube was then levitated back to it's owner.

''"It doesn't matter whether you are a mindless worm or an intelligent Toydarian! ALL living beings have the force. It has been also proven that non-sentient beings can be strong with it!" yelled the Trandoshan.''
