Tech's following shout was lost with the eruption of steam and fire. He staggered to his feet, taking only several steps before he halted, knowing getting any closer would not be prudent. At least he saw that Vader had managed to evade, but by too close a margin.

The sudden sensation that suddenly overtook that portion of the battlefield was unlike anything Tech had ever felt and certainly more than he knew what to do with. It was more convoluted to process and no simple feat when his usual enhancements had been dulled to something closer to a baseline human's. This was far rawer than anything else, with nothing to measure or compare against, nothing to calculate nor break down into more palatable information. Even the lingering burn from being too close to flames paled in comparison to the sudden, inexplicable chill he felt as he saw the Sith Lord rise.

From where she'd landed, Silhara groggily lifted her head, looking in Vader's direction as well, eyes wide with uncertain fear. They had thought they had the upper hand against these rebels. They'd sorely underestimated them.
