rule.

his X-wing.

While searching for R2-D2, Luke turns to the journal

earlier days of Master Yoda. After a daring rescue,
Yoda feels a calling in the Force and follows it –
to a planet inhabited only by children....[2]

  3. Star Wars: Timelines
  4. The frame story seen in Star Wars (2015) 26-30 occurs immediately after the events of Star Wars (2015) 25, which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 0 ABY.
  5. The opening flashback in this issue depicts Obi-Wan Kenobi writing in his journal during his exile on Tatooine, which ends in 0 BBY, seen in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope which is dated by Star Wars: Timelines. Obi-Wan Kenobi is also visibly older than his appearance in Star Wars (2015) 20, which at the earliest takes place in 8 BBY per the reasoning here. Therefore, the flashback must occur between Star Wars (2015) 20 and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which correlates to (at earliest) between 8-0 BBY.
