The life of an immortal

Time passed. I continued with my program. I would meditate as I grow up, listen to what the Force tells me and when I am old enough, I would begin to train. I trained as hard as I could, but without pushing myself too much. It came to me naturally and I trained at a moderate pace. There were still many many years until the 'first' Jedi appeared. 

Apart from my ever-growing sense-abilities and physical prowess, the first 'application' the Force showed me was what would be known as 'Plant Surge'. Plant Surge was a way to channel vital energy from the Force into plants and grant them the ability to accelerate their growth. Later this would be used to ensnare targets but I found out a much better way to use this ability. 

Apart from using Plant Surge in agriculture, I also managed to use this application of the Force to 'communicate' with plants of all kinds. Communicating with them started out very basic. I first started to feel them and used intent, to show them I meant no harm. This evolved into a stage where I could somewhat connect to them and then I could even see things that they 'saw'. I could feel what they felt and gain information about their life and what they experienced. 

But that wasn't all. I even managed to use my own vitality and channel that into the plants, giving them a form of 'minor or semi-sentience'. These plants would listen to me and become an extension of my will. 

I spent and entire life practicing mainly on this ability and I reached a stage where I could almost become one with the plants and the planet as a whole. It was a wonderful feeling and I found out, that it wasn't that different to when I meditated and listened to the Force. This again proved that the Force was in everything that was alive. 

.

Another change happened as well. When the Force showed me both of its sides, Ashla (the Light) and Bogan (the Dark), I came to my personal understanding and decision. I wouldn't care about sides or dark and light, I would only use the Force as a whole. When I decided that, the Force began to teach me how to sense and move using the Force. 

I continued to train in those techniques and uses of the Force even after the Force showed me the next application of Plant Surge. And after many years of training, I came to an understanding. My vision or perception changed. I began to see the Force in many different colours across the visible and invisible Electromagnetic spectrum. 

I moved passed the black, white and grey point of view on how to see the Force and entered a new stage. I saw the Force as what it was, in all of its colours and states. This allows me to not only see things for how they are but also use the Force however I wish. It was a free pass from the Force itself that allowed me to use it however I saw fit. 

But I didn't do that. I continued to follow and listen to what the Force had to tell me. I had no rush in the matter and could take it slow. That is one of the benefits of being immortal, time loses its value and I can do whatever I wish, at the pace I wish. 

.

I followed this way of listening to the Force's teachings, talks and training mostly all the time. But that wasn't the only thing I did. I was initially wrong with my assumption of being about 100'000 BBY. I was much further ahead. I was a special case for a human. I was not strictly speaking a human, only a humanoid. 

Whenever I reincarnated, I was a humanoid race and lived as such. But as time passed, I found out that I didn't need to reincarnate into a random species. I could somewhat control that. I know that it was later believed in the Legends timeline, that the Zhell were the ancestors of the humans. 

The Zhell were a species indigenous to Coruscant that were hypothesized by historians to have been Humans, perhaps the original Human population that took to the stars when Imperial Center was known as Notron. But I can confidently say that that is wrong. The ancestor of the humans ... is me. 

I revisited the planet where I originally was born and found out that my bloodline seemed to be the only one that survived. At least somewhat. Their evolution changed them and made them into another species that was better suited to the environment. All the others seemed to have died out, but I could still feel the connection I held to my descendants. I was far ahead of 100'000 BBY. 

.

I witnessed the species later known as the 'Wookiee' evolving on the planet, later known as Kashyyyk, becoming a species of tree-climbers. And according to the Legends timeline, that was approximately 2 million years BBY. But I didn't care. I had long given up on caring about time and the years I spent alone. I was not alone. I could shape history if that was my wish, I could have children if that was my wish, I could become the most powerful existence in the Universe ... whether I wished or not. That was a certainty anyway, but it didn't matter. 

I continued to train and communicate with the Force. I made tremendous progress. My Midi-chlorians continued to increase with each reincarnation. But the amount at which they increased seemed to slow down, ever so slowly. But their amount still increased when I was alive and trained, so it didn't matter. 

I was creating a mental map of the galaxy with each reincarnation, I added a new planet to that map. Between training, I would then learn everything about the planet. I recorded all the plants and wildlife in my mind. Using the Force's teachings I learned 'Animal Bond'. I could bond with animals apart from my eagle. 

I named my eagle Sky. And I learned that Sky was a phenomenal creature. Every time I reincarnated, Sky would feel my new location through our bond and fly through space to reach me. As soon as he bonded with me, I began to share vitality with it and Sky gained eternal youth. I would feed Sky with energy from the Force or my vitality and made him, he was a male, more Force-sensitive. 

I learned about hundreds of thousands of millions of animals and creatures during my time and tried to study their biology using science and the Force. I created many different serums and medical potions for diseases that didn't even exist yet. My knowledge grew and grew over the years. 

.

At one point, I stopped only focusing on biology and chemistry and also began to study technology. I didn't have much to go on, so I simply started to create my own. I came to understand that it might be useful to have my own planet where I could create technology undisturbed and unnoticed by the rest of the Universe. But something like that would have to wait until much further. 

I began to do tests with different materials I found on the planet I was on at the time. I created a forge and started the process of becoming a blacksmith. I spent years studying and practising smithing and how to effectively and best create alloys and different kinds of metals and materials I could use. 

I spent thousands of years doing this. My focus was on different things though. I would never stop my meditation and practising using the Force. But besides that, I had such hobbies. And science was a very big hobby I had. There were almost no limits to what I could potentially create using the amount of time I had. 

At one time, I used the powerful senses I had acquired and searched in space for the Purrgil. I managed to find them after a long time and used the Force to create a bond with some of them. I had them stop by every once in a while and I used that time to study their biology.

Purrgil were a semi-sentient species of massive whales that lived in deep space, travelling from star system to star system. Regular Purrgil were only the size of a small starship, while another type of Purrgil, known as Purrgil Ultra, was significantly larger. Purrgil had streamlined bodies with smooth-looking bluish-purple skin, four large hind tentacles, and multiple fins. Their heads had a characteristic bulbous shape with one eye on each side.

They were able to fly through hyperspace by creating, what would later be called, simu-tunnels. A simu-tunnel, also known as a hyper tunnel, was a tunnel-like pocket of realspace allowing safe travel through the alternate dimension known as hyperspace. 

After studying their biology, in which I was something of a genius at that point, I came to understand what allowed them to travel through hyperspace. I knew that given enough time, I could do the same by travelling through the Force and creating wormholes. But I wanted to study science and create the hyperspace technology, known as hyperdrive, millions of years before it would be created originally. 

And I succeeded. I managed to create the hyperdrive millions of years before anyone else would. 

The hyperdrive was a propulsion system that would allow a starship to reach lightspeed and traverse the void between stars in the alternate dimension of hyperspace. 

It functioned by sending hypermatter particles to hurl a ship into hyperspace while preserving the vessel's mass/energy profile and required a functional hyperdrive motivator to do so. The vessel then travelled along a programmed course until it dropped back into normal space - realspace - at its destination.

The only thing that I had to do then was to begin creating starships. To do that, I first had to continue my study of the different alloys and metals, which I could then use to create the best starships possible. I wanted to create a small starship, only for myself. Travelling through space and exploring the galaxy and then the Universe was a dream of mine. 

.

So that is how my life progressed. One day at a time. Learning what the Force taught me, growing more powerful and proficient and studying technology, biology, chemistry, physics, maths and more. I took my time and studied the laws of physics thoroughly. I wanted to create my personal spaceship first and foremost. My plans concerning creating my personal space station or even a planet, would come later. 

So after a few centuries of studying physics, maths, engineering, astrophysics and especially the thousands of different types of materials I could use, I finally had a group of sketches that showed different designs of my spaceships.

I knew that these probably weren't the final designs. The interior would still have to be designed and I had to think about what I would use the spaceship for. I planned to max out the speed and safety. For taht I had planned to imbue each material I use with the Force and add my personal vitality to it. That way, I could form a bond with the ship and maybe even someday, make it sentient, to some degree. 

So I started to do just that. I began collecting and building all of the pieces I would need to create my spaceship. For that purpose, I created large storage units where I could store the already-finished parts and not worry about them getting damaged. Because I had to do every single step of the production of my spaceship on my own and because I wanted to channel the Force into each part as well, the process took a very long time. 

I didn't use automation and did everything by hand. That was why it took me an entire century to finish everything. I used telekinesis to help me in my work, otherwise this would have been impossible.
