After Luke Skywalker helped his father to defeat Darth Sidious and return to the light
side in Return of the Jedi, he travelled the galaxy to search for ancient Jedi temples
and artifacts.
During his travels, Luke Skywalker discovered a lot of information about the previous history
of the Jedi Order and some of its highest ranking members.
I’m going to break down exactly what Luke Skywalker knew about Ahsoka Tano, the former
apprentice of his father, Anakin Skywalker.

So what I’m going to read to you is a page out of the journal of Luke Skywalker, which
he wrote after he began his journey to discover every piece of knowledge possible about the
old Jedi Order.
On his journey, Luke also discovered various information about other members of the Jedi
Order, Sith Lords from the Old Republic, and rare new force powers.
So let me know in the comments if you want to see videos about these things that he learned
inside of the ancient Jedi temples.
The following page in Luke’s journal is a note about Ahsoka's experience in the Jedi
order, serving under General Anakin Skywalker and how she was eventually framed and exiled
by the Jedi Council.
This note was written by Luke, so that the students of his new Jedi academy could study
the past members of the Order and the mistakes made by the previous council.
So here’s the page:
“Ahsoka Tano was the former Padawan - the Jedi term for an apprentice - of my father,
Anakin Skywalker, before he turned to the Dark Side.
During the Clone Wars, Ahsoka matured from an impulsive young trainee to a trusted commander.
However, unlike her fellow Togruta Jedi Shaak Ti, Ahsoka never went on to become a Jedi
Master.
When she was framed for an attack on the Jedi Temple, Ahsoka chose to leave the Order- despite
being exonerated from the crime- and walk her own path.
After the rise of the Empire, Ahsoka found her calling, providing vital information and
assistance to the rebel forces under the codename Fulcrum.”
So that journal entry right there, clearly shows that Luke knows almost the full story
about Ahsoka and her life within the Jedi order.
It’s really awesome to know that Luke found out about Ahsoka’s framing by Barriss Offee
and that she eventually joined up with the Rebel alliance as a Fulcrum agent.
I’m sure Luke would have also found about the other Fulcrum agents of the Rebellion
who bravely sacrificed their lives, like Cassian Andor and Saw Gerrera.
It’s possible that Luke was told this information by Anakin’s force ghost after his death,
or maybe Ahsoka even told him the story herself, because we know she survived past the battle
of Endor, from Star wars Rebels.
I really hope we get some more content from Dave Filloni which covers Luke, Rex and Ahsoka
meeting up and discussing stories about Anakin and the Clone Wars.
But let me know how you think Luke discovered the story of Ahsoka’s life in the comments
down below.
After this, we get a small piece of writing in aurebesh that serves as a piece of advice
for Luke’s future students.
Luke placed this quote from Ahsoka inside of his journal so that his students would
remember what it truly means to be a Jedi.
Even though Ahsoka wasn’t a jedi herself, in the end.
So, here it is:
“You don’t need to carry a sword to be powerful.
Some leaders’ strength is inspiring greatness in others”- Ahsoka tano
This is a quote from the Clone Wars series, when Ahsoka was advising Prince Lee Char during
the war on Mon Cala.
Although she wasn’t talking about lightsabers during that battle, Luke is clearly using
Ahsoka’s quote here to refer to lightsabers and the very common teaching that says “having
a lightsaber does not make you a Jedi”.
This is something that almost every young Jedi apprentice struggles with, which we even
saw with Ezra Bridger in Rebels.
I absolutely love that Luke is incorporating teachings from Ahsoka into his Jedi training
for his new academy.
So that is everything Luke Skywalker discovered about Ahsoka Tano in his journal in the Star
Wars: Secrets of the Jedi book from Luke’s Point of view.
