[Was his life, and in some ways still is. It was on him to make sure the Jedi continued. Something that he would pass on to Luke. The Order was still important to him even if it didn't exist here or at home. Just... not in the same way.

What Qui-Gon said next though drew a solemn, thoughtful silence. His eyes staring down at his hands for a few moments before looking up again.]

There was a time when I would have. When we left her on Mandalore, if she had asked, I would have stayed. I would have left the Order.

...

Part of me had hoped she would.

[But she didn't, and he knew it was for his sake. Perhaps because she thought he might have resented her for it.]

But in the long run... no. I couldn't leave you, and I couldn't leave Anakin.

[And yet he remembered how heart broken he was.]

[He's known Obi-Wan for long enough to tell when he's given due thought to a predicament and, even though this question is one that requires sessions upon sessions of meditation in itself, he trusts that the foundation has been set.]

And she understood that, just as she understood your feelings for her.

You both knew you cared for one another up until the end. That alone is an immense comfort.

[Obi-Wan's eyes lifted again at that. His final moments with Satine running through his mind. She had it clear how she had felt, even with her last breath. So that he wouldn't forget.

He had wondered and hoped she knew how he felt as well. But... wasn't her words an acknowledgement of that?

The damp musty smell in the room started to fade.]

Yes... yes it is.
