Of course, they had all been transferred to holocrons in this day and age, even the oldest ones: the musings of long-deceased Masters of the Order, condensed into easily transported, easily copied containers of wisdom. And still, Master insisted on going to the sources and making him decipher the scratchings of long-dead beings on long-dead animal or plant matter.

And Qui-Gon couldn’t blame him.

Running his fingertips over the uneven pages, rubbing his brain up against the outdated language, gave him a whole new sense of what it meant to be writing.

He started his diary soon after. On paper.
