fic: in anticipation of fulfillment

a jedijune​ drabble for the commitment / service prompt

---

Aayla could barely keep herself still in her excitement, despite understanding the gravity of the situation. She'd learned much, since she first came to the Temple, and she knew that making this commitment was a serious decision. Once she was officially a Padawan, she would be set on a path toward serving the Republic as a Jedi Knight. It would be hard. Even the Initiate training she already did was difficult, mentally, physically, psychically, and emotionally. But she could think of no more fulfilling life than using the gifts the Force had granted her to serve and better the galaxy.
