#it's where the 'oldest known surviving jedi texts' are. in a 'carefully controlled environment'

today's star wars fic research itinerary:

scrounging through archive.org'd old starwars.com blogs and the magnificent source of once upon a galaxy's own archive of old hyperspace articles so i don't tear my hair out over d!canon's 'yeah so the huk war totally happened but we're just glossing over it for now' (the hyperspace articles are amazing, the whole despotica is there and i love it because it's a fucking fictional literature anthology that has the gffa equivalent of greek tragedy).

reading up on the vancouver principles, the un's commitments for protecting children during peacekeeping & preventing child soldiers because the whole 'yes we're sending you a fourteen year old to help command armies' is something the clone wars really glossed over and is definitely going on the 'ways to ruin palpatine's reputation' brainstorming chart.

on that note: the preservation management handbook because, yes, i need to re-learn cultural preservation & management bits. this temple is a millennium old and has bits that are probably thousands and thousands of years older, given that it's build over many older shrines and religious sites (not just counting the sith shrine). i could leave in the paragraph-long bit about knossos i just deleted, but i'll just put the link to the post where i rambled on about conservation from last year, just after that visit.

looking at the revenge of the sith opening scroll from so i can use the exact language grievous is referred to with in my fic because sometimes the force is enabling the cheat codes. yes there will be a '... grievously pressed by their fiendish leader ...' somewhere in here.
