Kytana and been tracking the heart for weeks. It was not easy with the level of corruption that flowed through it. Higgs. There was no mistaking that.

She had isolated what she felt within the long connector tube that kept them afloat. But because of the metals, and the different machinery even that was show going. So she sat her legs folded together, as she reached out with the Force, in deep meditation, in the middle of the flow of the station. She knew it was dangerous, especially with how things were. But some risks had to be taken, otherwise things would continue to deteriorate. She knew Willow was in good hands should anything happen to her.

Kytana closed her eyes the moment that Ben took hold of her hand, physical connection always did make mind insertion easier. It was like opening the door. But she wasn't pillaging his mind for information, she was giving up some of her own. Which was impossible to do without sharing all she knew, and felt, when it came to the heart. That pure innocence, and hope, from when she touched it the first time. To the shadowed corruption that made the heart hard to track now. Though that little glimmer of hope was what she felt, and also what she shared with him.

And when she had shared all she could about the heart, she held onto his hand, and opened her eyes. Just in case he needed the support. "Do you understand now? I am not sure what you can do with that information, but I shared what I thought was pertinent." With an old Sith trick. But she kept that bit to herself.

Ben opened his own eyes - when had he closed his? - as he felt the sharing come to an end. The memory of the purity from before, the darkness that clouded everything and the faintest little spark, it all resonated deep within him and reminded him of Anakin. Luckily, he'd made himself watch all the holos of Anakin's story a few times by now, and so he knew that the final chapter of the tale was one of redemption, that small sparks of hope could be rekindled into blazing fires. So it would be with the Heart.

"I understand," he said with a smile and a brief squeeze of her hand, and let her see the comparison he'd drawn. It was only fair, after all.

"Both of us know what to search for now," he continued, "what it needs to feel like. We can triangulate now, and work out a location rather than simply a direction to walk in."

Kytana was thankful for that share. It showed when she squeezed his hand in return. It was not unlike their own tales. History did repeat itself after all. Her, Anakin, Kylo... she was sure there were many more in between. "Yes, but I fear you and I will not be able to handle the curing of the Heart on our own. It may take all the ones that are, ... Different." Because just through her meditation it felt like a monumental task.

"But the first task is now mine and yours." She felt a little wrong sharing that burden, but two heads were better than one. And something she had noticed was Ben was surprisingly quick. And she didn't doubt the two of them together would be able to come up with a solution to the corruption problem.

The new brewing problem was a little distracting.
