"Ah, I'm afraid that may be a little like asking a fish about the water." He didn't remember anything but the Jedi Order, which was likely the point of only accepting infants and toddlers for the training. If you didn't know anything else, it was harder to rebel, in theory.

There were, in his opinion, several flaws in that theory, but never mind. "Like most Jedi, I was taken in by the order before I can remember. I grew up in the Temple with other young trainees, learning the ways of the Force. When I was old enough, a master took me as his apprentice, until the Council judged me ready for my trials." It was possible that Dooku had had to twist arms as gently and steadily for him as he'd had for Anakin... a suspicion only, as he could not be sure. "In time, I took on my own apprentice. It might be easier if you tell me what you know or what you've heard."
