Obi-Wan did not pause to consider what it had cost him to win his victory over Darth Maul, but rushed immediately to Qui-Gon. Kneeling at the Jedi Master’s side, he lifted his head and shoulders and cradled him gently in his arms. “Master!” he breathed in a whisper. Qui-Gon’s eyes opened.
“Too late, my young Padawan.”
“No!” Obi-Wan shook his head violently in denial.
“Now you must be ready, whether the Council thinks you so or not. You must be the teacher.” The strong face twisted in pain, but the dark eyes were steady. “Obi-Wan. Promise me you will train the boy.”
Obi-wan nodded instantly, agreeing without thinking, willing to say or do anything that would ease the other’s pain, desperate to save him. [Terry Brooks’s The Phantom Menace]
