- "I found it years ago. When I was no older than you are now. I found it in the River of Light on my home planet."
- ―Qui-Gon Jinn, handing Obi-Wan Kenobi a Force-sensitive stone
A type of stone sensitive to the Force was found on the home planet of Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn. Jinn kept one such stone as a memento, eventually passing it to his Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi,[1] who in turn handed the stone to his apprentice Anakin Skywalker.[2] Shiny black in color, the stone had veins of deep red visible when viewed in bright light. It was warm to the touch and emitted a crystalline glow in the dark that brought warmth and serenity.[1]
