ELYSAR MOVEN is not a Jedi. At least, not anymore. She is technically, but if you asked her, she would quite possibly throw you a seething glare and return to her Archive duties.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that Elysar Moven has always excelled in everything. Initiate Trials? Breezed through them. Knock down Obi-Wan Kenobi at the Apprentice Tournament? Oh, yes she did. Fluent in the Jedi Code? She could recite it in her dreams, in multiple languages at that, including Mando'a, thank you very much.
Daughter of a Coruscanti Senator and a flighty socialite from the green plains of Serreno, Elysar was destined for a greatness, of sorts. Be that a wife of a noble Duke or a politician with ambitions as fat as his pockets, her parents held grand aspirations for their only daughter. Aspirations that, come her second birthday, turned into naught when a certain man in Jedi robes appeared on the doorstep of their mansion.
Elysar's father, who didn't quite hold the peacekeepers of the Galaxy in high esteem, had his qualms about a Moven joining the Order, but after careful consideration and some persuading from the girl's uncle, Elysar was sent to the Temple to train as a Jedi.
Unlike her fellow Younglings Elysar knew, or was at least vaguely aware of her origins. Such knowledge, however, came with a heavy burden of expectations. She had to do better, Elysar told herself, she had to be smarter, stronger, faster, for it was the only way to earn the recognition she so craved. Looking back at the early years at the Temple, Elysar couldn't but pity her desperate need for validation. She would do anything a Master asked if it meant that her talents and efforts were noticed.
She would be smarter, stronger, faster.
It was exactly that diligence and unwavering commitment to the Jedi ideals that caught the eye of Master Mace Windu. He saw potential in her lightsaber skills, the Jedi would later tell his young Padawan; potential that, if honed with careful guidance and precision, could grow into something more.
Elysar Moven would have most likely lived up to that potential if not for the mission that sent the young Padawan's whole life spiraling down a dark abyss.
The Council saw fit to reward her valor with the long-awaited anointment. But it suddenly lost its once dazzling allure.
Elysar Moven might have become a Jedi Knight, but she would never be herself again.
