Part 6, Travel to Lake Natth

I'm off to the planet of Ambria, where Nomi Sunrider started her training as a Jedi.
I here there are wonderous things on this planet. There are rumors of Holocrons hidden on the planet. It's unlikely they would still be there, but I have to research for myself.
The Whitestar takes off for the planet Ambria in the Xappyh sector.
One of the stories about Nomi mentions a confrontation at Lake Natth, so I land the Whitestar at the remains of a nearby home. The house could have once belonged to a Jedi, as there is a Force imprint there. However, it has long since turned to rubble.
I approach Lake Natth, and I can feel the power of the Sith in its waters. This interests me, as I've never had a lot of Dark Side influence. I've always remained calm, like the Jedi of old times.
Now, I need to learn to harness a little of this Darkside power, to achieve a true balance.

While I'm here, I have also heard that the lake can provide a powerful crystal for another lightsaber. It's always good to have backups.
I wander over to the lake, and review the information that I have on my datapad about the area.
There is so much more history about this area than I knew. Perhaps it wasn't a good idea to come here. Darth Bane is said to have camped here? Plus other Sith, and of course Nomi lived nearby? I wonder if that house where I parked the Whitestar? Of course, that would be good irony? Or the will of the Force.

Okay, what to do first? I think I'd better scout the lake area, then I'll check on trying to figure out the shaping of a crystal. I'll spend some time meditating here also. I've got to remember to do another fly over the area, and see if any other ruins or settlements can help me along.
As I approach Lake Natth, I see many footprints in the area. I don't think there are any nearby native populations, but that is something I note to check for.
Finally, Lake Natth comes into view. I was expecting something impressive. A great Sith Temple. It looks like any other lake on any other planet. As a matter of fact, there are signs that a number of others have camped here, some very recently. Other Jedi or Sith on pilgramages, like myself?
Then I open myself up to the feelings of the Force. I'm not sure why I was shielding myself, since this is why I came here?
The power of the Dark Side is still there. I open myself to it, allow the power to flow through me, and concentrate it into kinetite, a kind of power I had never experienced before...
At first, I didn't understand where this power was coming from, but I could definitely feel the dark powers channeling through me!
Perhaps I won't camp here tonight. But I will stay a little while longer, and see what other mysteries I can glimpse.

"Madness! How can a Sith survive weeks, months, even years drawing on these powers constantly without losing ones self? I can understand tapping into powers, but this would invariably lead to madness."
Looking around Lake Natth, and forgetting any other ideas I had setup for this mission, I simply return to the Whitestar, and leave the planet.
