	Wow, I love this chapter - Obi and Ben-centric, with Yoda's gentle wisdom. Love it, love it, love it. The tap of a walking stick again the floor lifted his gaze. “Sense confusion I do where normally calm and clarity I always find.” “I will admit I am at a loss to explain my apprentice’s actions,” Obi-Wan said. “Believe he acted maliciously do you … hmmm … to purposely betray Master Marojni?” “No, of course not Master. He did what he felt was right.” Obi-Wan took a deep breath, deciding he should get to the heart of the matter. Master Yoda would whittle it down in time. “Perhaps that’s the problem. He acts more than he asks these days.” “Reminds me of you before Naboo be does.” Yoda patted Obi-Wan’s arm with one clawed hand. “Confidence in one’s decisions … the willingness to accept the consequences … willingness to risk disappointing others to follow one’s convictions … qualities a Jedi knight these are.” “And in other padawans we might call it arrogance,” Obi-Wan replied. “Depends on the apprentice it does. The purpose of the trials this sort of discernment is.” “You think he is ready for knighthood?” Obi-Wan asked. The idea felt right but at the same time he felt a tightness in his chest he was at a loss to define. “Perhaps it is I who am not ready,” he finally admitted. “Unusual this is not.” There was a smile in Master Yoda’s eyes that made Obi-Wan wonder how long the Council had been discussing this behind his back. “Ready to discuss this matter with your peers are you?” So, Ben approaching knighthood is going to cause the "supposed" knight Anakin a bit of trouble, I suspect. Can't wait for more. -----signature----- http://boards.theforce.net/fan_fiction_resource/b10304/25405090/p3/?52 Prolific Author thread: list & links there. Muse fueled by coffee.

	deep satisfied sigh How do you do it? Each post is so consistently good. You have so much going on at once. Key steppingstones in setting up plot and action. Delicate interactions of character and relationship, that each ring true, true, true. Prose that flows. Honestly. I am in awe at how you have sustained this over 62 chapters, and more than three years. And never in any place along this whole long journey have you let go of the reader's jugular, not even once. What I liked best about this chapter ... The boys went to the council!!! Loved the interactions between Obi and Ben, too. Ahh, it's just so good. blissful face -----signature----- Ou n'a tu pas tellement aime quelqu'un que tu avais peur de l'aimer au peur des souvenirs?

	Loved this post! Great interactions between Yoda and Obi-Wan and then Obi-Wan and Ben. Hurray for Knight Ben!

	Lovely post! Its good to see Ben is being considered for knighthood. And I'm glad they thoroughly discussed the potential benefits and risks of getting closer to Palpatine. At least they'll be prepared. But will that help in the long run? Looking forward to more! -----signature----- Is God willing to prevent evil but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.

	Thank you for the PM. I so look forward to this story's updates. I think that Yoda hit it straight on concerning Ben and Obi-Wan.

	This post really brought home just how grown up the boys are at this point. It makes me a bit sad. Lovely. -----signature----- Headstrong : http://boards.theforce.net/before_the_saga/b10475/27188681/p1/?5 Xanatos/Quinlan/Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan/Dooku Updated December 17th! In Memoriam: Itachi Uchiha

	Ben is ready but he still is headstrong like his master. I think Ben knows who the sith is in his subconscious mind. excellent. -----signature----- Padawan to p_stotts Peace over anger - honour over hate - Strength over fear. Links to Stories in my Bio. Obi-Wan forever.

	Ooh a fine post. I like that the two padawans could sense the darkness with Palpy... Jedi are still pretty thick about how the Sith have infiltrated everything.

	How quickly they grow up and before you know it they are taking the trials. “You think he is ready for knighthood?” Obi-Wan asked. The idea felt right but at the same time he felt a tightness in his chest he was at a loss to define. “Perhaps it is I who am not ready,” he finally admitted. Very insightful, Obi-Wan. It would seem that it's time for Ben at least. I'm sure Anakin will be happy and annoyed that Ben is going first. Good job. -----signature----- Betrayal - http://boards.theforce.net/s/b1/10935143 updated 9/22/08 Fragments of Illusion- http://boards.theforce.net/bts/b10475/28456473 updated 11/20/08 jedidas3's Master At last - Hope for our country

	Definitely glad that Anakin managed to restrain himself after the meeting with his Sithness - it shows a level of control I wasn't really expecting from him. Has to laugh over Obi-Wan's reaction to Ben It's interesting to see Ben being the one to take risks while Anakin tries to hold him back - I only hope they don't get in too far over their heads before one or the other realizes what's happening. -----signature----- The power of accurate observation is often called cynicism by those who have not got it.
