After Kuro announced her desire to take Mundi to Coruscant, Mundi's father asked whether he simply be taught in his home village or at the Cerean capital of Tecave City.
Once she explained her motives to his family, Mundi demonstrated his Force abilities for Kuro by levitating items and describing his sensory abilities. When Kuro descended from the craft, Mundi immediately sensed she had come for him, even before she identified herself. When Kuro arrived in her starship, which Mundi called the "metal beast," Mundi's siblings fled at the sight of the unfamiliar technology, but Mundi stood his ground and insisted he was not afraid. Although most Jedi are trained starting from infancy, she nevertheless hoped to take Mundi to Coruscant, the capital of the Galactic Republic, where the Jedi Order could test him and assign him a Master to train him in the ways of the Force. In 88 BBY, when Mundi was four years old, a Jedi Knight named An'ya Kuro, better known simply as the Dark Woman, traveled to Cerea after hearing stories about the child. Mundi could sense Zon's approach prior to these attacks, and his family would hide Mundi in concealed floor compartment before Zon arrived because the raiders would kidnap male children due to the species' low birth rate.ĭespite the family's seclusion, rumors of Mundi's abilities with the Force began to spread even outside of Cerea.
During these raids, Zon repeatedly broke into the Mundi household, smashed their belongings and demanded financial tributes from them, which the family always paid to avoid problems. Mundi's home village was periodically attacked and pillaged by a gang of raiders led by Bin-Garda-Zon. On at least one occasion, an item Mundi lifted with the Force exploded in mid-air due to this instability. Throughout his early childhood, Mundi demonstrated great skill with the Force and was able to levitate items and sense danger, although his abilities were unstable due to lack of proper training. As a youth, Mundi was drawn to offworlder technology, but his father warned him embracing it would come at too high a price, something that Mundi did not understand as a young child. His father was a farmer and, for the first four years of his life, Mundi lived on the family farm, where his father and mother were content to raise him in a secluded lifestyle typical of Cereans, who largely shunned technology and lived in isolation from the rest of the galaxy. He was one of several children in the Mundi family but was the only boy among his siblings and one of the few males in his home village, as the birth rate for male Cereans to females was twenty-to-one. Ki-Adi-Mundi, a Cerean male, was born in 92 BBY on Cerea. Ki-Adi-Mundi's father giving him over to An'ya Kuro for Jedi training We need a Jedi of our own, one who will be here always.
