I tell them that once I graduate, I will gladly join the rest of civilized society in allowing my strength, my drive, and my focus―what they call Will―to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as millions already do. As all must eventually do.I tell them that I belong, and they believe me.But the truth is that I have been sent to the Academy to find answers. To solve a murder. To search for an ancient weapon. To uncover secrets that may tear the Republic apart.And that I will never, ever cede my Will to the empire that executed my family.
