    Summary

    "Well, looks like we're all Sith Lords, now. I hope you've all been practicing your most menacing laughter for our first run in with the Jedi Council."

    Ben could only sigh and raise a distasteful eyebrow at the cross shaped, red lightsaber he was given. Down the line other students were also handling their new weapons and robes with a raised eyebrow here and quizzical expression there.

    "Really, uncle?"

    "Really. I don't want to compete with the local Jedi population."

    Why did Jedi politics and time travel have to be so difficult?

    Summary

    "The Dai Bendu language was spoken by the members of the ancient Order of Dai Bendu on the frozen planet of Ando Prime. The name of the Je'daii Order was forged in that language."

    "Every language is like a one-of-a-kind species. It captures unique conceptualizations of the world and has its own ways of constructing words, phrases and sentences for communicating ideas. As we compare the words and structures of various languages, we come to a greater understanding of our world. (...) Language captures how we perceive the world around us and how we relate to one another, it defines who we are. The Mother tongue language we grow up with is the one used to express what is in our hearts; our heart language."

    "Studying language is invaluable for learning about other cultures and mapping their respective developments, histories, myths, customs, etc. Linguistics also helps us understand and document geographical /environmental influences, periods of migration/diaspora, origin of certain spiritual beliefs, etc. through the study of things like cognates, shared myths between cultures, language families, and tracking differences in word usage and dialects over a long period of time."

    Summary

    It was just my luck to be reborn as a clone.
    Do you have any idea what shitty lives clones lead even BEFORE they shipped us out to fight in a civil war?
    And after that- when do I get a break between dealing with PTSD, stubborn idiots and the realization that if you don't do anything, you will be a slave thanks to the chips in less than three years?
    But hey, no pressure! You just have a million lifes riding on your shoulders while you are not even mentally healthy enought to deal with your own shit in a healthy manner.
