Master stuck his head round my door and said 'Padawan, would you do me a favor? Take this down to the bins."
It was a waste-paper bin, loaded to the brim with crumpled paper. When he's not on a mission and has no jobs to do, he likes to write. There's another reason why his room is so messy, I guess. (And I suppose he's rubbing off on me, because my room's a complete tip. If Yoda saw it...). He writes poetry, mostly. Once I was in his room, and saw it lying about. He's really good at it.
Part heaven; part hell
It's true what they say: only time will teell
That was my favourite....and there were plenty more. I wonder if he minded me seeing them? I really, really hope not...I didn't actually mean to see them....
But anyway, I asked where the bins were. He sighed and said. "So. You know your katas, yoou know the history of the Jedi, you know how to deflect blaster shots, and yet you don't know the layout of the Temple." He gave me detailed directions and I went. The bins are massive. Well, I suppose they must be, to have to hold the waste of a whole Temple. I dropped the rubbish in one of them....the one marked 'Paper' and found something on the floor next to it.
The torn page of the book I found.

After lunch I went to Tahl and Thea's quarters. I told Tahl what was going on....and then I asked Master Thea if she could tell us what was on the paper. Tahl said it was for a 'very important thing' concerning some mission Clee was going on. She's such a liar!
"Here," Tahl says. "Master, please tell us what this means." She pointed to the paragraph we didn't have time to translate in the library.
Thea sighed and scanned it, muttering things to herself. "I may not have got it exactly right, but I believe it says 'Two sons of fallen ones, to giude and save the light. Two daughters of the universe-bright stars in the dark night. One to choose the future...the choice of light or love.
"Seek the answer in the first betrayal."
She handed it back to me. "Where did you find this?"
"The library."
She raised an eyebrow. "I don't think you two should get any ideas...these things are often nothing more than the delusions of madmen."
She walked into her own room, and I turned to Tahl.
"I think you believe in this, don't you?"
"Not much. I'm just curious."
Yeah right!

Of course it means something...I'm just so sure. I thought of showing it to my Master. Maybe I willl....maybe I won't. He doesn't strike me as the type to take interest in prophecies.
I really don't know much about him, do I?
