Okay, so maybe the Force and this magic isn't entirely one-to-one, but Finn's still running on his theory given the similarities. He's glad Istredd thinks much the same. Given how genuinely smart the man appears, it kind of gives Finn a boost of confidence.

"I was thinking the same thing, actually. The Force comes from everything, so it makes sense it would come from this, too." Not that he knows a whole lot regarding the Force aside from what little he's heard, seen, and felt. Regardless, it feels true to him.

Finn takes the book gratefully and hears the invitation for what it is. "I haven't read many books, if I'm honest, but I think I know a couple you might be interested in. If I can remember them. Some old books about teachings of the Force." The books from Skywalker's island, the ones Rey pours over all the time. Finn's done little more than glance, has only read through some pages when he thought he could do it without anyone knowing. Still, it was interesting enough.
