"Padawan Harry Potter." Harry supplied, bowing in turn.
Fay watched Lily and Harry greet Luminara out of the corner of her eyes, but her own attention was concentrated on the young knight following Luminara. Luminara Unduli was not as good a physical healer as she was a mind healer and Fay could already tell there was something in Komari Vosa that Luminara had not seen, a pain part physical and part mental. The mental aspect had been healed several times, but kept on coming back, tied to the physical flashes of pain and anger. "Hello young knight," Fay said, moving towards her. "I am Master Fay."
"Master" Komari said, bowing her head.
Fay smiled gently, even as her Force power reached out. "You are in pain, let me help for a moment."
"Master I am not…" Vosa paused and then the woman almost crumpled to the ground, but not in pain. Her face had instead formed into an expression of disbelieving relief. The pain in her head, in her body had simply gone away at Fay's gentle Force touch.
Luminara sighed as she caught Vosa, shaking her head before she looked up at Fay. "Thank you for that. I was able to feel the pain she was in, but I was not able to get at or discern where it was coming from. I was only able to soothe the pain slightly. You, you took the pain entirely away."
"There is a shadow there, something within her mind is causing her great trauma in some uncoordinated but controlled fashion. We will need to examine her brain closely, I think there is something implanted there," Fay said briskly as the two of them held the other woman back into the house Dooku following watching proceedings with well-hidden concern as Harry and Lily followed, unwilling to interrupt the current drama.
The three of them watched silently as Fay and Luminara first lay Knight Vosa down on a bed then began the laborious process of examining the woman's mind and soul.
Luminara was a healer true, but nowhere near as accomplished as Fay. Even Master Yoda would have admitted that Fay was the better healer, able to take away pain, both physical and mental, to a level he could not with a subtlety Yoda could not match. He was far better at healing gross injuries, but when it came to the mind, Fay was head and shoulders above him.
Had he been consulted, Yoda might well have found the small torture devices still embedded in the woman, so small that even Republic medical scanners could barely find them, and would not have been able to remove them in any event. But Fay could find them, and could remove them, though the process was not pretty.
Harry gulped once as he watched the back of the woman's head slowly open as if it had been cut by a scalpel then watched over the next few moments as something small, so small it glittered in the air like a piece of dust was slowly pulled out of the woman's brain cavity. Master Fay held out her hand, and the dust particle began to move from the cut, as if the blood wasn't even solid it was simply there, held there by Luminara's Force powers. The particles began to fill up a small nearby vial for a moment, as Lily looked on in wonder once more at the Jedi's ability to heal, watching Fay and the green-skinned woman work.
Eventually Master Fay leaned back shaking her head with his side. "I believe we have found them all." She nodded at Master Unduli.
The other woman nodded back, shaking her head sadly. "I would never have even realized those implants were there," she said wonderingly. "How in the world did the Bando Gora get their hands on technology that could create and implant something like that?"
"Some hidden packet of ancient technology, some madman developing it on his own? The reasons do not matter, only that they died with them." Dooku said shaking his head from where he had been watching the work behind Harry. "We were most thorough in our destruction of the death-loving cult." Dooku said with a nod. "But my former padawan will be well now?"
I have been concentrating on the mental trauma and the psychological side of things, and I've been making quite a bit of progress even with these pain giving devices implanted within Vosa. Your rescue of her, and the amount of effort the Order put forth in doing so, was a major stepping stone to rebuilding her psyche," Luminara said clinically. "With this pain giving saying that gone, we should make even more progress quickly, though I would welcome Master Fay's help there too of course."
"With pleasure," Fay replied, smiling as she leaned back in the chair. "I believe that healing like this should be the bedrock of the entire Order, though I know I am in the minority there."
Now to young Harry and to the mystery of Lily. I take it that she and the boy she so closely resembles is the real source of all of the new techniques that have begun to propagate within the order?" Dooku asked, gesturing them all to sit down, pulling out a hard-backed chair from himself form a small table set by the window of the room assigned to his former padawan. Harry quickly sat down on the floor by Master Fay's seat, his legs crossed Indian style.
"That is essentially correct, though the reality is somewhat different, and our origins are something that we would prefer not to share at present." Lily replied cautiously, looking at the two lightsaber masters. "Can you two do anything of the techniques Clan Saa has shared?"
"We can both us the Shielding technique. Naturally this has led to a bit of evolution in our lightsaber styles," Dooku supplied then cocked his head, his lips twitching in what might have been a wry grimace. "The stunning technique seems to be of limited utility, so I have not made any effort to learn it, though I have made an effort to build up a mental defense to its effect. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to do any of the body modification techniques, my belief in my own body is too strong for me to overcome."
