(OCC: This is an open thread for any Jedi or Jedi aligned character who would like to do some work on Jedha.)
Clovis plucked another book from the ancient mantle above an un-sued fireplace, the book was one of many that the ancient Temple of the Kyber contained, unlike many of the other repositories of knowledge throughout the galaxy this one was not fully digital. Though around three quarters were on a number of data pads set in more modern cases, some of the more abstract and older texts were still on paper. The dry air of Jedha and the dark vaults of the temple made a perfect environment for the paper to last over the decades, centuries if not longer since they were written.
Turning back into the center of the room, he took in its scope once again, the Temple itself was massive, only Tython is larger, well was larger, it was know only an pile of smoldering half molten rubble. Along both sides sat rows of seating with small desks allowing people sit and read, their was already another three Jedi in the room, part of the first wave of members coming to begin the transformation of the ancient temple into a thriving center of galactic peace. In the center of the room was a holo-screen, he had found shortly after first entering the temple, it was a map of Jedha, slowly rotating on both of its axis allowing a full view of the planet. It was one of the most complex holo-screens he had seen, it showed not only the planet and the major hubs, but also the cycle of the sun and of major ships coming and going. Clovis had spent had a number of hours studying the map but his mechanical skills where not fantastic so was waiting on a more technical mind to appear to help him with it.
Taking a seat on one of the benches he opened the ancient book, its pages cracking a small layer of dust falling onto his lap, he blew gently onto the pages to remove the last of the dust before he began reading. 'The temple on Devaron...'
