Eelysa
- "What happened, Master Skywalker?"
"A million people died a moment ago, all in great pain, and with great suddenness." - ―Eelysa and Luke Skywalker
In 17 ABY, Eelysa was part of the youngest and most powerful class at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Praxeum. During one training session, in which Skywalker was demonstrating his telekinetic abilities to six members of this class, the Jedi Master felt a great disturbance in the Force. Shocked and dismayed by the great loss of life, Skywalker lost control of the boulders, the trees, and the droid that he was levitating, causing the objects to crash to the ground. Skywalker's students, including Eelysa, were troubled by this, not having felt the disturbance themselves. While three of the students went to retrieve the droid, R2-D2, Eelysa ran to her Master's side, hoping to discover what had caused him to lose control. Skywalker told the young girl that a million people had just suddenly died. Unbeknownst to both, this event was the Dark Jedi Kueller eliminating the population of Pydyr. Skywalker, concerned over the event, immediately ended his lessons for the time being and left for Coruscant to deal with the threat.
Skywalker considered her one of his most promising students and considered her force abilities to have been 'untained by the poisons around her'.
