A Twi'lek story-chain, also known as a memory-cord, functioned as a recording device for narratives within the Twi'lek culture. Individual segments represented sequential parts of the tale. In the year 22 ABY, Tionne Solusar, a Jedi historian, retrieved such a device during her assignment on Borgo Prime. Subsequently, she permitted Tahiri Veila, a Jedi apprentice, to remove it from the Lore Seeker and present it to Luke Skywalker, a Jedi Master.
Subsequently, Alema Rar created a memory-cord to document her being left behind on Tenupe.
