I’m looking for a planetary system ... It doesn’t show up on the archive charts.
Archivist:
Are you sure you have the right coordinates? ... It looks like the system you’re searching for doesn’t exist.
Obi-Wan Kenobi:
... perhaps the archives are incomplete ...
Archivist:
If an item does not appear in our records, it does not exist!
