11 " For the purposes of keeping their eyes on both patients at once, the other Jedi had taken down the barrier between Reath’s “room” and Dez’s. Unfortunately Dez wasn’t doing nearly as well. Dez lay on his cot, his breath ragged. His golden-tan complexion had turned ashen, and his skin had gone clammy. Despite being bandaged with synthplast skin, the wounds on Dez’s arms and legs remained livid and tender. When Master Cohmac came to check on them, he murmured, “Have you tried a healing, Reath?” “I tried,” Reath said. “Master Jora always said it was worth trying. But I doubt I did much. Not knowing exactly what toxins the Drengir put in his bloodstream—well, that didn’t help. "

17 " How can we split the Force in two? How can we justify such an act of violence—and it is violence, such a dividing, even the darkness divided from the light. "

― Claudia Gray , Into the Dark (Star Wars: The High Republic)

18 " Master Cohmac sighed. “The darkness is as much a part of the Force as the light. The Order thinks it can bisect the Force so neatly—as though the primal living energy of all existence were a thing to be sliced and served.” Reath took a moment to consider this. “Doesn’t that separation keep us safe?” “Does it?” Master Cohmac said. “Or does the divide only make the darkness darker, more dangerous, than it ever would have been in a state of nature? "
