"I'll try not to bother you too much."

"It won't be a bother - so long as you don't mind discussing the books with me. There aren't many people interested in this history."

"I can do that."

"We have a deal, then."

"Agreed."

To the library, then.

(Her most controversial books aren't kept here... But there's a treasure trove all the same, a legacy built of years and fortunes spent seeking out every scrap of Force knowledge, of Plagueis's bribes and gifts...)

And it's currently Elesse's to peruse.

Okay so what she needs to do is be systematic about this, figure out what all's available to her and come up with a priority list-

Haha no she's totally getting sucked into like the third book she sees.

Lylí sits on a chair with her own book, apparently content to let Elesse get distracted. 

Elesse is very distracted. She knew the native Corellian Force-user tradition was a lot more secular than the Jedi Order and the Corellians she's aware of are all oddballs but she hasn't come across records like this before, an inside view on the history of the Rainbow Warlords and biography of notable figures. The Jedi's archive focuses on just the Greens, who eventually became the Green Jedi and then merged into the wider galactic Order.

It's not a very long book, though - but perhaps once she's done, she'd enjoy this one, which goes into more detail about the tensions between the Jedi Order and the Green Jedi after the Ruusan campaign, including primary sources like letters and recordings...

Ooh, yes.

She brings it over. 

"Thanks."

"No problem."

It's quite possible Elesse is going to miss dinner, at this rate.

She can have something fairly non-messy brought to the office, and they can discuss the books over the meal, perhaps. 

There's that famous bureaucratic efficiency.

Is Elesse being sarcastic?

She would never.

Oh, of course, Lylí must have mistaken her for someone else.

She spends too much time around people wearing masks, clearly.

Lylí would think that'd make her better at telling people apart.

Empirical evidence suggests otherwise.

What other evidence does she have?

Well, just the one data point, really.
