Mara resisted the urge to roll her eyes at Galen's comment about the Dark side helping him protect Gaia. How many Force users had fallen because of that very sentiment? One could just as easily protect someone by embracing the Light side. But instead of showing her disdain for the reasoning, she took a sympathetic stance. After all, she understood love and caring for someone.
Now that it was obvious Galen wasn't going to attack her any longer, Mara went over to sit next to him, listening as he explained himself. Well, that certainly explained the anger and the call of the Dark side. Now it was a matter of trying to calm him down again.
Setting her hand gently on his arm, she looked at him. "I am sorry you saw that, Galen. As unpredictable as the Seal is, she is here and alive now. That is what truly matters, what you have right here and right now. I know it hurts to have learned that, but here she has a chance to live." That was provided people didn't try to kill her for what part she had in Moriarty's plan.
