Since infancy, Callista displayed an undeniable strength in the Force. Her midi-chlorian rich blood kept her connected to the mystical energy field binding the galaxy together. Had her home planet, the watery world of Chad, been part of the Republic, she would no doubt have been found and taken into the Jedi order. It was a maverick Jedi Master named Djinn Altis who ultimately discovered her and brought her into the larger galaxy.
从婴儿时代起，卡莉斯塔就显示出在原力方面无可否认的能力。她富含纤原体的血液使她能与整合银河系的神秘能量场相连。如果她的母星——水世界查德——是共和国的一部分，她无疑将被发现并带入绝地武士团。是特立独行的绝地大师吉恩·阿尔蒂斯最终发现她，并将她带入更广阔的银河系。

Djinn Altis was a scholar of antiquity who often strained the rules of the Jedi order in his pursuit of knowledge. In debates, he would evoke the protocols of old, when the less structured Jedi order allowed multiple Padawans-per-master, or when the Jedi abided romantic attachment and even marriage within their ranks. Altis, not unlike the legendary Qui-Gon Jinn, would travel the stars far from Coruscant, following the will of the Force. He would amass knowledge and study new ways of interpreting and communing with the Force in cultures scattered beyond the Republic borders. He traveled aboard his starship Chu'unthor, named in reference to an older training vessel from an earlier time.
吉恩·阿尔蒂斯是个研究古代的学者，在追求知识的过程中，他经常挑战绝地武士团的清规戒律。在争论中，他会唤起人们对古法的记忆，当时结构较松散的绝地武士团允许一师多徒，当时的绝地也能容忍组织内的恋爱关系甚至婚姻关系。阿尔蒂斯与传奇般的奎-冈·金相似，会遵循原力的意志，跑到远离科洛桑的星球去。他会到分散在共和国疆域外的文明中寻求知识，学习解读或了解原力的新途径。他驾驶的星际飞船名为“丘恩索号”，这个名字与早期的一艘老训练船有关。

It was on one of these voyages that he discovered Callista. The young woman had worked on her family's wander-kelp farm and tsaelke ranch. She had used the Force to communicate with the cetaceans of the Chadrian oceans, having a supernatural advantage in her ranching duties. Djinn identified her potential, and took young Callista as an apprentice, even though she was far older than the strict rules of the Jedi Code would allow.
在一次这样的航行中，他发现了卡莉斯塔。这个年轻的女人在自家的行走海草农场和蔡尔克鲸牧场里劳动。她用原力与查德海洋里的蔡尔克鲸交流，这使她的牧场工作有超自然的优势。吉恩发现了她的潜能，收年轻的卡莉斯塔为徒，尽管按照绝地信条的严格要求，她年纪太大了。

Djinn took Callista to his secret training compound veiled in the billowy clouds of Bespin. There, she learned and mastered Jedi techniques at an accelerated pace. She also met Djinn's other Padawan, Geith. Before long, Callista and Geith fell in love. Further stepping on the proper rules of the Jedi Code, Callista crafted a lightsaber handle with a pattern of swimming tsaelkes, showing a strong sign of attachment to her past.
吉恩把卡莉斯塔带到他的秘密训练基地，该基地位于贝斯平，有翻腾的云海作掩护。在那里，她加速学习和掌握绝地技能。她还遇见了吉恩的另一个学徒——盖特。不久，卡莉斯塔和盖特就相爱了。卡莉斯塔沿着绝地信条的正确规则进一步学习，打造了一把光剑，其剑柄图案是游动着的蔡尔克鲸，这强烈地表达了她难忘的过去。

Though Djinn longed for detachment from the affairs of the Republic, not even he could ignore the scourge of the Clone Wars. Djinn and his students rejoined the Jedi from Coruscant, offering their skills in the battles that spread across the stars.
尽管渴望摆脱共和国的各项事务，但即使是吉恩也无法忽视克隆人战争的灾难。吉恩及其学生与科洛桑的绝地重新会合，在席卷星河的战斗中贡献才艺。

After the war, when Palpatine had fully ascended to the title of Emperor of the New Order, the Jedi were hunted down and destroyed as enemies of the Empire. Dozens of young students fled to Belsavis, where Jedi Master Plett sheltered them. Imperial intelligence had discovered this secret stronghold, and the Emperor ordered the Eye of Palpatine, an asteroid-sized battlemoon and one of the earliest superweapons of the Empire, to destroy this Jedi sanctuary.
战后，帕尔帕廷爬上新秩序皇帝的宝座，绝地作为帝国公敌遭到捕杀。几十名年轻学徒逃往贝尔萨维斯，绝地大师普勒特在那里保护他们。帝国情报部门发现了这个秘密据点，皇帝命令“帕尔帕廷之眼号”——一个小行星大小的战斗卫星，帝国最早的超级武器之一——前去捣毁这处绝地避难所。

As the Eye of Palpatine passed through the Moonflower Nebula, Callista and Geith boldly tried to destroy the station. The battlemoon's weapons proved too powerful, and both Callista and Geith were killed. But Callista didn't die. Perhaps it was through the arcane teachings of Master Djinn, but Callista was somehow able to shed her corporeal form, and fuse her consciousness into the battlemoon's main computer. By inhabiting the gunnery computer, she was able to prevent the battlemoon from completing its deadly mission. She stayed alive, disembodied within the inner mechanisms of the station.
当“帕尔帕廷之眼号”穿越月光花星云时，卡莉斯塔和盖特大膽地试图摧毁这个太空站。但战斗卫星的武器实在太强大，卡莉斯塔和盖特都牺牲了。然而卡莉斯塔没有死亡。也许是因为受到吉恩大师的神秘教导，卡莉斯塔不知何故竟然能脱离躯体，把她的意识注入战斗卫星的主计算机。通过占据火炮计算机，她成功阻止战斗卫星完成其致命的任务。没有肉体的她活在该太空站的内部机械中。

Three decades passed. The Empire rose to incredible power. The Jedi were all but destroyed. The Empire was toppled. A young Jedi, Luke Skywalker, sought to rebuild the order. And the threat of the battlemoon arose once more.
三十年斗转星移。帝国如日中天。绝地几乎滅絕。帝国崩溃。一位年轻的绝地——卢克·天行者——寻求重建绝地武士团。而战斗卫星的威胁再度出现。

A former Emperor's Hand, Roganda Ismaren, was using her son Irek to summon the Eye of Palpatine. Callista again stirred, after so long a slumber. She detected ripples in the Force. Luke Skywalker and two of his students, Nichos Marr and Cray Mingla, were aboard, seeking to finally destroy the battlemoon. Callista did not want to see history repeated and witness the deaths of these three. She attempted to communicate with Skywalker, but could not breach the divide between her realm and the corporeal one. Occasionally, her consciousness would penetrate into Luke's dreams, but it was not enough. In time, she was able to communicate to Skywalker through the computer system itself, displaying messages across monitors.
一名前皇帝之手——罗甘达·伊斯马伦——用她的儿子伊雷克召唤“帕尔帕廷之眼号”。卡莉斯塔在漫长的休眠后再次警醒。她觉察出了原力的波动。卢克·天行者及其两名学生尼科斯·马尔和克蕾·明格拉登上了战斗卫星，试图最终摧毁它。卡莉斯塔不希望历史重演，也不忍看到三人的死亡。她试图与天行者沟通，但却无法突破她的领域与实体之间的分隔。有时，她的意识会进入卢克的梦境，但这还不够。最后她及时利用计算机系统本身，在监视器上显示信息，与天行者取得了联系。

Even through this medium, Luke was able to feel a strong connection to Callista, and despite the hurried pressures of destroying the battlemoon, the two fell in love. Sacrifice again became the only means of stopping the battlemoon. Luke was reluctant to destroy the station, for it would mean killing Callista, his newfound love and the last remaining link to the Jedi of old. Cray, who was grieving the loss of her love Nichos, suddenly stunned Skywalker and deposited his inert form into an escape pod. She took it upon herself to destroy the battle station, feeling no need to continue her now empty life. The battle station erupted in a fiery explosion, and Luke watched as it turned into falling embers.
即使通过这种媒介，卢克也能感到与卡莉斯塔的强烈联系。尽管面临尽快摧毁战斗卫星的压力，两人还是相爱了。要中止这个战斗卫星就必须再次牺牲。卢克不忍心毁掉它，因为这意味着杀死卡莉斯塔——他的新恋人和跟旧绝地的最后联系。克蕾因为心爱的尼科斯的死亡而悲痛万分。她突然击昏天行者，把他瘫软的身体拖进一个逃生舱。不想虚度余生的她决定与战斗太空站同归于尽。战斗太空站剧烈地爆炸了，卢克眼睁睁地看着它化为灰烬。

But another escape pod had fled the station, and aboard was the body of Cray. Though it was physically the body of the beautiful Cray Mingla, Luke was able to sense a different presence within. In the final moments before the station's destruction, Cray had agreed to allow Callista to enter her body. Cray died so that Callista could live.
但另一个逃生舱也离开了太空站，里面装着克蕾的身体。虽然这是美女克蕾·明格拉的身体，卢克却能感觉到里面有所不同。原来在太空站毁灭前的最后时刻，克蕾同意让卡莉斯塔进入她的身体。克蕾的死使卡莉斯塔活了下来。

Though she was corporeal once more, she was shocked to find herself blind to the Force. She could not touch it, wield it, or sense its flow. She was a Jedi no more. Having lived her entire life with the Force as a gift, Callista felt robbed of her identity.
尽管再次获得肉体，她却吃惊地发现自己无法感应到原力。她不能触摸它，不能驾驭它，也不能感觉到它的涌动。她不再是一名绝地了。曾经终生与原力天赋为伴的卡莉斯塔感到她的身份被剥夺了。

Luke, trying to ease her loss, made it his purpose to find a way to restore Callista's connection to the Force. The two traveled throughout the galaxy, to places strong with the Force, to rekindle that sensitivity. To Callista's dismay, she discovered she could make contact, but only through the Force's dark side. Not raised with the proper disciplines of the Jedi of old, Callista found herself on dangerous ground, tempted by the dark side, unable to hear or see the light.
卢克试图缓解她的失落，决心设法恢复卡莉斯塔与原力的联系。他们俩游遍银河，去原力强大的地方，希望重新点燃她对原力的敏感性。令卡莉斯塔沮丧的是，她发现自己只能接触到原力的黑暗面。由于不是按照旧绝地的正常教条成长的，因此卡莉斯塔发现自己处于危险的境地，她受到黑暗面的引诱，却感觉不到光明。

This led to a bold recklessness that culminated in an amazing display when she single handedly destroyed the Super Star Destroyer Knight Hammer, the flagship of Admiral Daala who tried to destroy Luke Skywalker's Jedi order. Callista was presumed killed in the blast, but she survived. She contacted Luke via hologram, informing him that she needed to go on alone, to discover herself, to reclaim her identity, and to seek out the Force.
这导致卡莉斯塔越来越大膽鲁莽，最后令人瞠目结舌，她独自一人摧毁了超级歼星舰“武士之锤号”——达拉上将的旗舰。达拉企图消灭卢克·天行者的绝地武士团。人们以为卡莉斯塔在爆炸中丧生，但她幸存了下来。她用全息视频联系卢克，告诉他她要独自向前，去发觉自我，去恢复她的身份，去探寻原力。

As she drifted across the galaxy, Callista eventually came to Nam Chorios, a world drenched in the power of the Force, a phenomenon brought about by the living crystals on the planet. She had joined the Theran cultists of the planet, meditating on the Force even though she was not able to touch it. The isolationist cultists also operated the gun stations that effectively quarantined the world by preventing anyone from landing or departing Nam Chorios.
在银河系漂流了一番后，卡莉斯塔最后来到纳姆乔里奥斯——一个浸润在原力中的世界，这种现象是这颗行星上的活体水晶引起的。她加入了这颗星球的泰拉斯信众，冥思原力，尽管她无法接触它。这群信奉孤立主义的教徒还操纵着炮台，有效地使这个世界与世隔绝，防止任何人进出纳姆乔里奥斯。

When Seti Ashgad, leader of the anti-Theran Rationalist Party contacted Chief of State Leia Organa Solo for diplomatic relations, Callista attempted to warn Leia to stay away from the world. The Chief of State did not heed the warnings, and found herself kidnapped by Ashgad. Callista returned from hiding to thwart Ashgad's schemes. It was at this time that Luke Skywalker, who was searching for Callista, finally found her again. But they only shared a single wordless look, and they knew that any chance of their lives continuing together was gone.
当反泰拉斯的理性党党魁塞蒂·阿什加德与国家元首莱娅·奥加纳·索洛联系，希望建立外交关系时，卡莉斯塔试图警告莱娅远离这个地方。国家元首没有注意这些警告，结果发现自己被阿什加德绑架了。为了制止阿什加德的阴谋，卡莉斯塔复出。这才让苦苦寻觅卡莉斯塔的卢克·天行者终于再次找到她。但他们只默默地对视了一眼，就明白他们再也没有走到一起的机会了。

The two went on their separate paths. Callista's whereabouts remain unknown.
两人分道扬镳，各奔东西。卡莉斯塔从此不知所踪。

幕后



The character of Callista was created by author Barbara Hambly for the 1995 novel Children of the Jedi. Though not a formal trilogy, the story of Callista continued in the two following novels, Darksaber by Kevin J. Anderson and Planet of Twilight, again by Hambly. Callista appeared once more in "Murder at Slushtime," a short story printed in the Star Wars Adventure Journal, which will be reprinted online as part of starwars.com Hyperspace.
卡莉斯塔这个人物是由作家芭芭拉·汉布利为1995年的小说《绝地的孩子》创作的。虽然不是正式的三部曲，但卡莉斯塔的故事在接下来的两本小说——凯文·J·安德森的《暗剑》和又是由汉布利写的《黄昏行星》——中得到了延续。卡莉斯塔再次出现于“软泥季的谋杀”——刊登在《星球大战冒险杂志》上的短篇小说。它将在网上再版，作为starwars.com的“超空间社区”的一部分。
