Summary
Vokara Che is the Head of the Halls of Healing in the Jedi Temple at Coruscant, and a skilled healer of mind, body, and soul. She’s older than she looks, kinder than her temper lets on, and wiser than any of the KnightCorps on active field duty. She has a biting and dark wit, though few but her former padawans are aware of it.
And she is absolutely going to save the Galaxy. And she’s going to do it for the galaxy’s own sake.
Part of the Rain in the Desert series, in which we see time travel from every point of view but the ones who have done it.

[vicarious trauma for those in the mental health profession is a thing, if you hadn’t realized it, and didn’t work there.]
[Vokara also carefully explained to her beloved former padawan that, should the Shadows be so fortunate, Cara and her healers would have the toughest caseload in the galaxy. Few in quantity. Sith in quality.
And after the meditation, Vokara and a much sobered Cara discussed protocol, procedure, self-care, and then Vokara brought out the ancient manuscripts. They went over each in summary fashion, with Cara given the assignment to read them all over most carefully, make her own notes and return in a week to discuss her observations and questions with Vokara. Therein was a stunningly useful array of techniques and methods to reclaim darksiders in general and Sith in particular. It included everything from how to cut off their connection to the ritual objects that made them stronger and less mentally stable, to exposure techniques that could only be accomplished on one of three Light Force Nexii in the galaxy, Tython being one of them. It also covered methods for the healers, for counterattack, defence, grounding, and a level of self-care that even healers might find a little cushy. All were absolutely required for any mind healer who carried the maximum caseload of Sith patients: 1.
The Guardians of the Temple of Kyber in Jedha were willing to permanently house the former darksiders and Sith they might find, but only if all due diligence had already been done for them in terms of mind, body, and soul healing, and only if they could not be returned to the regular society of other Force Sensitives, in a cloistered or non-cloistered lifestyle.
So if the Shadows didn’t kill them all and burn the pieces, the due diligence was going to be left up to Cara and her healers, with Vokara supervising Cara.
With a hug and a promise that if Cara didn’t comm and stay in touch outside of supervision Vokara would be sorely disappointed, she saw her beautiful child out of her office and returned to the rest of the reports she needed to sign off on.]
