[And that has been a common failing of those who devote themselves to a singular concept, in Dooku's experience. He had once idly asked Grievous, after a training session, what he might do once all the Jedi were dead. The warlord had recoiled slightly, and offered some vagueness about finding a new worthy foe, before initiating a new and furious sparring session. A drawback of living solely for the struggle- one becomes ill-equipped to attain victory.]
