The release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker marked the end of not just one trilogy, but three. Over the weekend, Mark Hamill, Luke Skywalker himself, shared an emotional goodbye letter to the series.

“What an extraordinary journey it’s been,” he begins, typed out on some Star Wars letterhead (is this official? has he had a stock of it since the ’70s??), recalling the story of how “The Adventures of Luke Starkiller” evolved into the Skywalker saga we know today.

Check out the full letter below!

Is that actually a letter typed on actual paper?  Or is it about a thousand times more likely its typed In Word on a Star Wars template and copied to twitter?

That’s the letter from the blu-ray set. He didn’t personally type it out.
