Zelus gives another yawn while standing on watch duty for the night. How he hated the lull in action. The Separatist had stopped their constant attacks and seemed to be biding their time for now. He had seen a Sith standing behind the soldier directing them like pawns. Zelus wanted to charge and fight the sith knowing that their fall would completely crush the moral of the Separatist. Jedi Master Zon Kuthon forbade the charge though and it took all of Zelus's will power not to charge against the order. So instead he put on a show for the sith with his blade work. At the end of the battle Master Kuthon scolded Zelus for his actions, which is how he ended up on night watch.<br/><br/>It has been a few days since the last battle and Zelus can be found practicing his saber forms. Sometimes wishing he was stronger in the force for manipulation and finesse, not that he would trade his skill for anything. He was actually supposed to help some troopers with some close quarter combat. He found joy in the unarmed combat it offered, and the practice for such in case he should be stripped of his saber. He knew his Master thought him brash, but he did prepare for some circumstance, unlikely as they may be.<br/><br/>Zelus was thinking about asking permission to leave Ord Mantel, he was beginning to become bored of the lack of action, surely Master Kuthon will be enough. Master Kuthon answer to him was, "The Force still tells me your presence here is as necessary as mine, so you will stay until otherwise notified Knight Thanatos."  Zelus just kind of slunk away and went about his daily routine, occasionally playing cards with the soldiers. At least he had a good reputation with the soldiers, a mutual respect. He hopes the Separatist try something soon; not sure how much longer he can just sit around.
