reading and then they just said doesn't exist after hours and hours and hours of reading it, still feel a way about that. You had to make the mythology up in your head.

We never knew a Jedi in his prime. You had to think about all of these variables because It wasn't given it to you yet. We were still in the baby stages of how gigantic the universe would become. And that sort of gooshed your imagination to fill in the gaps of the stuff that you hadn't seen but wanted to see.
