Grievous taking a fallen K'Kruhk's lightsaber as the comatose Jedi Master undergoes a Whiphid healing trance.
The Whiphid healing trance was a special ability exhibited by certain Whiphid, most notably the Jedi Master K'Kruhk. A Whiphid using this trance would lower their metabolism to the point where they sometimes seemed to be dead, but in fact, their body would be repairing its injuries. During the Clone Wars, K'Kruhk used this ability several times to survive what would otherwise have been fatal wounds.
