Talin listened intently to each word, hearing everything that the Master's were saying and taking it in, though she didn't quite show it. She was normally a good listener, and didn't always like to speak very much, that was obvious, but for some strange reason, she always seemed to take things in better when she didn't appear to be paying any attention. The appearance of Inala caused Talin to raise her gaze and look at the new arrival with a slight look of confusion and surprise. To her, a Jedi Master should never be late.

As Jin-Tai arrived not long after, Talin decided to take the respectful route and dip her head slightly to each of the three Masters, wanting to show that she had some respect for her elders. After a moment more, she glanced around at the other students, noticing that they all seemed to not really want to be here, especially the girl named Daiyu. For some unknown reason, this girl in particular seemed to resent everything around her at the moment. And then there was the one called Lucrestsia. She seemed different as well, though she was more just friendly and open then angry. And finally, there was the boy, Aziel. He seemed to just not care at all, and Talin had the feeling that he was probably not even going to try in future training missions.

After Jin-Tai had finished speaking, Talin spoke up. "I do have one question: will we demonstrate our skills now, or during our first training session? I know that we were chosen to come here because of what we can do, but what I would like to know is if you want to see us in action as soon as possible." This time, as Talin spoke, her voice was stronger, more forward as she raised her eyes to look at each of the Masters that stood before her, waiting patiently for her answer as her hand slowly drifted to her side, from where her light saber was tucked away.
