Dialog transcript

Kolovish
You perform the rite of the Pilgrims well, Jedi; I saw the signal fires as you climbed the path. Very few of your kind make it this far.
I am Kolovish, first Matriarch and reader of the ancient texts. I led our people to this planet - and I welcome you.
My teachings angered our rulers. They spurned our lifestyle and refused to recognize the authority of the Matriarchs. On Tython, we found we could practice our ways in peace. Even the Flesh Raiders can't destroy our society - not forever.
Jedi Duo
It's a privilege to meet you, Matriarch.
Kolovish
And it is my privilege to meet a Jedi who accepts our ways.
Even our own kind - the other Twi'leks - they mocked us and denied the authority of the Matriarchs. That is why we came here. Now you've completed the ritual, and you are friend to the Pilgrims. You share our burdens and you share our strength.
Hero of Tython
My duty is to the Jedi Order, not the Pilgrims.
Kolovish
And yet we welcome you despite this.
Barsen'thor
Jedi are kin to all people - no more and no less to the Pilgrims.
Kolovish
Perhaps that is why we can share this world.
Take these gifts. We have very little, as you must know--but you are Jedi. You share our world, and you face a difficult future. It is the way of Jedi to face darkness. I believe you will face the darkness of our world - and perhaps beyond.
Remember us, and remember our ways. Go to your duties, now... and as we part, know that my blessings go with you.

Hero of Tython, Barsen'thor
