The Crucible (Croo·si·ble)
The Crucible is the process in which a Kova Vanguard apprentice takes where they forge their Soul Saber.
History
This practice became tradition after the teachings of the Trinity. They received their blades after having a vision from Kova, that was their crucible. With the creation of the Kova Vanguard, this practice needed to become tradition in order to become the peacekeepers they'd hope to become.
Execution
Once the apprentice has achieved meditative transcendence, they will face their own challenges; always unique to oneself. Upon a successful transcendence, soul gem(s) will appear in the hands of the apprentice. They will then use the gems to forge their Soul Saber.
Participants
The master will lead their apprentice throughout this process. They will act as a guide to get them into the perfect state of meditation and reach transcendence.
Observance
This process is usually done towards the end of a student's apprenticeship- although not necessarily always coinciding with an approval to becoming a Vanguard.
