[ the jedi ideals, and how obi-wan discusses them, is captivating. it's an ideal society, with a common code and goal that all agree and work towards. much less the civil dispute of heaven, the varying morality and definition of purpose. when cas first freed them (he thought) from following the word of god to the letter, he'd thought they'd naturally fall to upholding ideals and virtue, but he'd overestimated the soul of their society. ]

I wish angels had so strong a code for violence in the name of defense and protection. I'd be interested to see this saber form some time, if you're willing to share it.

How is it that the Jedi decide who is worthy of defense or protection? Not all conflicts are simply good and evil.

[ mortals and humanity is so much more vastly complicated. both sides can be doing something they consider defending themselves, and it can be reasonably true for each. how does a jedi make that call? ]

Fascinating. [ these caves full of kyber crystals. for inanimate nature to bring forth such visions that lead jedi to such intimate personal growth, he wonders at their true nature. ] Do you imagine there's a hallucinogenic property to the caves, or a spirit that possesses it? Or is it simply the conduit nature of the stone for the living Force?

[ with the force being a creation energy simply dispersed rather than held by a single being, perhaps these crystals were somehow more saturated. perhaps there was, once, a single being, that chose to divide itself throughout its creation, cas wonders. such an altruistic, selfless act, one his world's god clearly had no interest in. ]

Yes, exactly. This feeling, it's just how you say. [ incidentally, it also accurately describes the feeling left behind with dean's absence. cas supposes, in many ways, dean became his new home, once heaven was lost to him. dean, sam, the impala, and later, the bunker - places where dean exists, places he goes to find him. those are what became home for him. ]
