"The gravity here is...so different. Ugh I can't move as easily." Kaia would complain. Her mother had dropped her off and told her that if she wanted to be a Guardian, she'd need to get used to the planet she was up for.
Why was she just UP for it? Couldn't she just be the only candidate and be placed there?
Apparently not.
Her mother had told her she'd return for her once Kaia had gotten used to the gravity so much she could fly no problem.
This was bullshit.
Either way; At first, Kaia tried to brute force it. She immediately tried to fly and fight against the pressure. She may as well have just been hopping because achieve flight she did not. She tried and tried until she tuckered herself out and had to lay there for a while.
And then...days went by.
For a couple of those she kept trying to fight the gravity, but, when it became obvious she wasn't getting any better results she just...kinda lived there. Sure she was trying to strategize how she could accomplish this goal but in the meantime she was focusing on just existing there. Preparing food and exploring took more effort than usual so she thought it better to survive first.
Interestingly as the days went on and she just...existed and saved her energy....Kaia was actually starting to get used to it. Was she just used to the pressure? Or was it actually not as heavy anymore? When she realized she felt 'normal' here, Kaia would finally gather her energy and took flight. WITHOUT BEING FLATTENED.
Her eyes would widen in excitement as she let out a yell.
"MOM, I DID IT!"

"Now that you can live here comfortably, you should learn to feel for the energies around you." Her mother would instruct next.
"Every living thing has energy, but, bigger and stronger things tend to have more noticeable energy. You'll need to become both familiar with the energies of those who inhabit this place as well as become used to sensing it. It should be like a breeze to you. You should be aware of it, but, not distracted. It should be--"
"Comfortable?" Kaia would her her mother off with an annoyed look.
"I get it. It's like clothing. I can feel it but I'm used to it so I don't pay it any attention. I gotta do that with sensing all the lower lifeforms."
Her mother would shake her head and sigh.
"If you get it, I'll leave you to it."
And with that, her mom was gone.
Kaia would look around herself, noting that she was in a pretty secluded area. There wasn't much to sense here. Maybe further into the wilderness she'd find some sort of animal she could practice energy-stalking.
After wandering for a while, she'd find some sort of hairy apex predator. Sharp teeth and all. Visually, it was hard to miss. This should be a pretty good starting point.
Keeping to the tree branches, Kaia would observe it as it prowled, squinting her eyes as she looked for any sign of life-force or energy. For some reason, it wasn't nearly as easy as she thought. She's squint until her eyes blurred and briefly THOUGHT she saw an aura...but...no. Just wishful thinking and fucked up vision.
Eventually, the creature would find prey, and, at that point Kaia had two subjects she could focus on. At first it was hard to choose who to look at as she was chasing them both as the prey ran from the predator. Kaia was able to keep up, however the trees would occasionally block her sight as she'd lose focus.
"You're trying to see it too much, Kaia."
The sudden voice of her mother echoed in her head.
"GAH! Don't talk suddenly!" she'd yell, shaking her head.
"Feel it. Your eyes will perceive it from there."
"ALRIGHT! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!"
By the time she'd refocused, Kaia realized she had lost her subjects.
She supposed that she didn't have a choice but to stop trying to see, now. Exhaling slowly, Kaia would try to feel for energy instead of see it. She'd suddenly feel a pull to her left, her head suddenly snapping in that direction as she could now see the predator again in the distance.
Was it...watching her?
Wait, she sensed it! She had done it!
A large glow would emanate from the predator's mouth and Kaia's brows would raise high as she sensed the power from it being...on levels that were dangerous to her.
"Oh fuck!"
She'd fly out of the way as the beam reached her previous position. Then she'd keep flying away because at the moment she was NOT powerful enough for that.
"Trust me I'll be back to fuck you up next time." she'd mumble under her breath. She knew its energy, now...
