It's similar to Ashla's, in that it provides materials and requires little more than students with a desire to learn. The site is doing alright now. It ... http://ashlaknights.net/holocrons/darth_draconis/2008/08/24/holocron-14-personal-order-of-the-sith/ The Sith Lord of fiction known as Darth Revan is a fascinating specimen of of the Star Wars Mythos. His philosophies of strategy, war, the Force, life, etc. are all intriguing if you've found the right stories. In the fiction, his Holocron mentions a transformation caused by the Force that ... http://ashlaknights.net/holocrons/darth_draconis/2008/08/10/holocron-13-academics-training-evolution/ Recently, in the Star Wars novel Invincible, use of the shatterpoint technique was seen once again; when Darth Caedus used the more physical and (when not in combat) less practical aspect to shatter mandolorian armor, and again after Grand Master Skywalker taught the technique to Jaina so she could use ... http://ashlaknights.net/holocrons/darth_draconis/2008/06/29/holocron-12-academics-training-shatterpoint/ I believe that the act of submission to the will of another is a direct contradiction to the Sith ways. The Sith are about the Self, Freedom, Emotion, Control, and more, but never should any Sith allow themselves to be the tool of another. Even Jedi should not submit to ... http://ashlaknights.net/holocrons/darth_draconis/2008/05/30/holocron-11-academics-training-submission/ The Jedi Order of Ashla Knights is second to none for Jedi Training, and even serves as a place of growth for those such as myself. Every time the site goes down, it's quite the opposite of fun. However, both Ashla Knights and the Order of the Sith have gone ... http://ashlaknights.net/holocrons/darth_draconis/2008/05/26/holocron-10-personal-ashla-knights-downtime/ I mention conflict often, and I can be seen calling some struggles productive conflicts while I am also known to say that other struglles are unproductive conflicts. If you wonder how the difference may be seen, perhaps you should properly dedicate yourself to the path you walk...but for those who ... http://ashlaknights.net/holocrons/darth_draconis/2008/05/09/holocron-09-academics-training-conflict/ Chains. To many to count...but as a Sith, the chains serve a purpose. They motivate us to become strong so that we may brake them. I suppose the end goals are power, freedom, and an attempt to reach perfection. Power can be for its own sake, but it is also ... http://ashlaknights.net/holocrons/darth_draconis/2008/04/27/holocron-08-academics-training-chains/ I acknowledge that there are many external influences factored into my choices, and those same outside influences affect my enviroment. But does that mean I do not have free will? Definately not, in the words of Vergere: "Choose, and act". There are certainly other factors, but they are only as ... http://ashlaknights.net/holocrons/darth_draconis/2008/03/20/holocron-07-academics-training-free-will/ Love is probably the most natural emotion we have. I would theorize that it most likely comes from the fact that everything is connected, and yet there is the individual. I feel this emotion to a high degree every day in the presence of family members, but, intellectually, I dislike ... http://ashlaknights.net/holocrons/darth_draconis/2008/03/03/holocron-07-academics-training-stagnation/ Many articles and texts written by Sith Lords speak of the masks we wear to blend in, the facades we construct to not be noticed as different than others. What these articles seldom tell us of are the dangers that these masks present. Just as with power, these masks/facades are ... http://ashlaknights.net/holocrons/darth_draconis/2008/02/29/holocron-06-academics-training-masks/
