[ a jedi master. a jedi master is here. the relief is so great that he almost sags with it, eyes sliding briefly shut. in his own time, maybe he really is the last, and he's not ready. he's not sure he could have ever been ready. but-- having someone else here, someone else from the old order that he can learn from, pick up things that master yoda and ben hadn't had the time to pass on to him..
