"Making a story is presenting the facts." The Jedi smiles for a moment, carried back in memory to a series of interesting conversations with the Jedi archivists. "Any time you do so, you decide how to choose which facts are important, and how to arrange them. So..." she purses her lips slightly, considering how best to put this to a droid, "if you have some information you want to convey to Veeone, you might transmit it in the form of a data array. If you told the same thing to me, you would need to put it in linear order, or produce a visualization. And before you even assemble the array, you would have to decide what kind of data to include in it, and what to leave out." She watches the droids as she tries to explain this, but it's harder to read a droid's expression than a human's, especially an astromech droid she isn't very familiar with.
"A story is just selectively chosen information, arranged according to a certain kind of structure."
