It was later archived online at on September 20 , 2006 . Plot summary . As the Rebels evacuate Yavin Base , Deen Voorson was telling a story to the brothers Mavis and Tarn , a story that takes place in the days long before the empire . Vici Ramunee has just completed the construction of her first lightsaber and , if she can finish the final test given to her by her master Mistress Tannis , she will be a Jedi . The next morning , Vici met her master and was given the test , to make it to the Cave of Truth without any supplies . Vici started towards the cave , walking along a river and into a forest . As she drank some water from the stream , she felt the presence of another in the forest watching her . It was her brother Veni Ramunee , who brought Vici ’ s lightsaber . Vici wanted him to go back , but by saying he didn ’ t know how to get back , she allowed him to come with her up to the entrance of the cave . Her brother ’ s complaining was irritating her , but she used the Force to keep calm . Veni and Vici exited the forest and walked through a canyon . In this canyon they heard a thumping , it was something alive and huge . Vici decided the best course of action would be to fight it . As the creature came around a corner and into view , the siblings could see it was a large 20 - legged reptile . Vici struck out with her lightsaber and the dragon avoided the blow and began to talk . He introduced himself as Willm Lywin , a Duinuogwuin Jedi Master and guardian of the Cave of Truth , with his lesson here being not to be hasty . After telling Willm Lywin about her family and her home , they reached a dead end , which Willm said was the Cave of Truth . Vici found an opening in the wall and started to move the boulders from the entrance by using the Force . After clearing the way Master Lywin told her she had until dawn to face the challenge of the cave . Using the Force , she made her way through the pitch black maze of tunnels until she got to a room that was lit up . The room reminded her of home , and in this room was a table with food on it . She fought the urge to eat it and as she got close , the food looked rotten . She turned around to see a skeleton in the chair , wearing her clothes . When she calmed herself down , everything vanished . She moved on to the next room , which was just a big pit . She jumped in and was floated to a platform . Here she could take the door sloping up or the one sloping down . Vici chose the one sloping down . She had to crawl her way through the next tunnel until it opened up into another chamber . In this room she found a very valuable Corusca gem . She thought this to be a test of her willpower . She tried to walk out the exit of the room , but threads of light stung her as she tried . Using the Force , she moved the gem into the web of light which allowed her to cross through . The next room was full of mirrors . Here she saw illusions of people and places from her life . The room closed behind her and she had to find her way out , but then water began to enter the chamber . She let her anger get to her trying to fight a foe who was not there , when she saw herself in the mirror she let herself calm down . She reached towards her reflection pushed through the wall . Here she was met with her master , Tannis . Master Tannis told her she passed the test , facing her fear , impatience , anger and her physical limits . Deen ended his story . A man standing in the doorway said he enjoyed the story . He was coming to thank Deen for repairing his droid . Deen was going to erase his memory , but decided not to . Deen asked the man if they had anything to worry about , and he told Deen that they didn ' t if they remained open to the Force .
