Figrin led the way from the balcony back into the Jedi Council chambers. The Council was no longer present, and the room was dark, save a single central light shining from the ceiling in the council's circle of chairs. Just outside the influence of the light, stood several figures, indiscernable and shadowed, but not ominous as might be presumed.
Figrin and Estelle approached the circle of figures, and Figrin motioned for her to step forward beneath the circle of light. As she did so, the faces of the shadowy figures became clear to her. Each of the Jedi Masters of the Order were around her. Figrin stepped into the opening in which Estelle has passed, and completed the circle.
"For millenia," Figrin began to speak,"since the earliest days of the Jedi Order, the rank of Jedi Knight has been bestowed upon those whom are skilled and learned in the ways of the Light Side of the Force. Acknowledged as the guardians of the galaxy, to be Jedi Knight is a great honor and priviledge. This is not an end, but a beginning. The journey continues, and becomes more difficult and trying. Many take this challenge, and do well. But there are a few Jedi whom rise above the rest, complete the journey and achieve a new understanding of the Force and of themselves. For these select few, there is only one appropriate title... Jedi Master."
Figrin motioned to the members of the circle.
"To be chosen as a Jedi Master is to be tested and acknowledged by the other Jedi Masters of the Order. They are gathered here because the test has been completed, and they wish to welcome an new member into their circle."
He looked to Estelle.
"Estelle Russard, Jedi Knight of the Order... you have served in the role of Jedi Knight, and have risen above the meaning of this rank. A greater future is put before you. Will you answer it's call?"
As he said those final words, the members of the circle shifted, and created an opening in the ring. An opening that could be filled by a single person. In somber silence, they awaited Estelle's response.
