Simi

Simi was a human male who was a member of the Path of the Open Hand cult. In 382 BBY, Simi was a child and lived with the Path of the Open Hand on the planet Dalna where he and the rest of the Path's Littles were looked after by Path member Marda Ro. That year, a blue honey glider had attached itself to Simi, thanks to his willingness to share his porridge, leading to him have to compete for its attention with fellow Littles Hallisara and Ferali. When Ro and the Littles went to a stand in the Dalnan city Ferdan's market to give out flowers, the glider landed on Little Jezra'lin's head, upsetting Simi and delighting Jezra'lin, who said it must've been their turn before Ferali called it a gift freely given.

Jedi Padawan Kevmo Zink visited the stand at the same time, Ro comforting Simi as she greeted him. She had Simi give Zink a river rose, so the boy crawled under the stand's table and onto the street and held out the flower for the Jedi, who took it telekinetically using The Force, to the horror of Ro.

After Zink left, a Little named Utalir asked what Jedi were and fellow Little Jerid said he'd heard that Jedi were Warriors who fought monsters, which scared Simi and caused him to scream. Ro then took him and the rest of the littles to the site where the Path was building their flagship, the Gaze Electric, and used it as an example of clarity and freedom which she then warned Simi and the others were traits the Jedi did not have, while also reminding them of the Path's central philosophy that no one should use the Force. Simi then put his hand in Marda's and she squeezed it back.
