FOR ZOYA ONASI the jedi order was her life.
Abandoned by her mother and taken from her father, she held no memory of family except the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. The Council tells her she must be wary, that the dark side calls to her more than most. No one tells her why, and not even her Master offers her answers.
The Clone Wars turned her from a youngling to a padawan, but still she held no understanding of what the dark side could do. Until the night her Master leaves her to look after the younglings in the Temple and she watches her family be cut down one by one before her very eyes.
It is then and only then that Zoya truly feels the dark side flow through her. Only then does Zoya finally feel the full force of her abilities. It shatters her, and when her Master finds her sitting in a circle of dead clones with bloodshot eyes, he promises to help her. He sends her to Bogano, where Master Eno Cordova waits to train her. Where the dark cannot touch her.

FOR CAL KESTIS he had no home but the jedi order.
His family was a mystery, having been born on Coruscant and left at the temple before he'd even turned one. Master Tapal tells him he must be persistent, that with the force as his ally he can conquer any obstacle in his path. No one tells him it will take everything from him.
The war was supposed to turn him from padawan to knight, but his grasp on the force continued to elude him even with his constant training. Until he fails to save Master Tapal from the betrayal of their battalion and he watches his master die before his eyes.
