Four Sages


The four sages of Dwartii must be characters from the Star Wars movies. Not exactly a fan but having seen some episodes of the Star Wars saga, I suppose it's forgivable to be ignorant of their existence since they had such strange names as Sistros, Braata, Yanjon and Faya and were said to be active in the earliest days of the Galactic Republic; which by the way, was founded more than twenty five thousand years before the Galactic Civil War . The Galactic Civil War itself refers to the rebellion against the ruling Galactic Empire in an attempt to restore democratic rule to the galaxy; so the story goes, all made up tales of course; unlike the real existence of the four reknowned Chinese sages : Yan Hui, Zengzi, Zisi and Mencius. Since a sage is described as a man who is wise through reflection and experience; I suppose in China, there ought to be more than four too. And I don't really understand why it doesn't include the Great sage Confucius himself.
