The impetus for this theory is pretty simple. During the animated series The Clone Wars , Anakin starts to feel like a totally different person than who he becomes in Revenge of the Sith. In other words, IRL, there are two adult Anakins since two different actors played the role.
What the Two Anakins Theory does is to take the tonal dissonance between Lanter-Anakin and Christensen-Anakin and apply it to the actual canon. As TheChainsawVigilante writes :. So thinking about a clone version of Anakin, is, again, not that far-fetched. Cared for by former engineer Pash Davane and carrying vital Alliance information, Organa was pursued by stormtroopers and barely managed to escape aboard the Millennium Falcon with Skywalker, Solo, and Chewbacca.
Aboard the Falcon , Davane provided Skywalker with Leia's data tape, which he noted was a sign of great trust between the two of them. With her place as a friend of the Alliance confirmed, Skywalker and his allies returned Davane to her home on Skorii-Lei. Despite the escape from the Harbinger , the heroes quickly realized that C-3PO was captured during the commotion, and Skywalker was unable to stop R2-D2 from commandeering an X-Wing to rescue the protocol droid on his own.
With his own X-wing's hyperdrive temporarily disabled, he resumed reading Ben Kenobi's journal. Identifying a symbol in the journal as a star map , Skywalker decided to visit the Vagadarr system after reading of a Jedi Master who had ventured there in the past and encountered enormous giants made of living stone that gave those in close proximity a power known as Stonepower.
Like the Jedi Master before him, Skywalker was able to navigate through the planet's heavy debris field and land on the surface, where he encountered Garro , the last remaining native human, who initially wanted to use Skywalker's life force to kill the few remaining giant children.
Determined to protect them, Skywalker inspired Garro to change his mind and sacrifice his own life force to revive a dead giant. Skywalker and the giant children then ventured into the giant's cave to find the heart of the mountain and finish what Garro started in reviving the giant, thus completing the mission of the Master from years past and taking another step in his journey to becoming a Jedi.
Skywalker journeyed to the Screaming Citadel with the hope of learning more about the Jedi. Threatened by its denizens, he defended himself alongside Doctor Aphra and Black Krrsantan, who had lied to Sana Starros in order to find Skywalker..
Claiming to know where to find a Jedi Master, Aphra convinced an initially hesitant Luke to visit the Screaming Citadel with her. While on the way, she introduced him to the Rur crystal of the ancient Jedi splinter group known as the Ordu Aspectu. Aphra claimed that introducing him to the Queen of Ktath'atn as a Jedi would allow them to reactive that crystal.
At Ktath'atn, the entire party, except for Krrsantan were allowed into the citadel. Aphra presented Luke to the Queen who, unbeknownst to them, planned on eating Skywalker. Having been selected by the Queen from a group of other creatures of interest, Doctor Aphra and Skywalker ate in a dining hall with the monarch. The Queen commanded Luke to move a nearby dining tray with the Force, though he was unable to until the Queen's servant, Vespinax , threatened him with a knife to his throat.
Moving the tray revealed to the duo that the Queen planned on implanting them with an Abersyn symbiote , so they quickly made an attempt to escape. In the Citadel's hallway, they were nearly stopped by many of the Queen's thralls. Starros attempted to shoot Aphra, but Skywalker blocked the blast with his lightsaber, claiming that she was his friend.
Meanwhile, the Queen's servants and armed security guards pursued the group, so they escaped into an Abersyn symbiote laboratory. Aphra led Luke to a nearby room and sold him out to the Queen of Ktath'atn, who promptly enthralled him. Solo attempted to rescue him, but was quickly enthralled and forced to lead the Queen's forces.
In an ensuing struggle, Skywalker managed to re-arm himself with his lightsaber and fell under the influence of an Abersyn symbiote, becoming more powerful than even the Queen, and proclaimed himself King of the hive. Doctor Aphra, deciding to return to save Luke, allowed Eternal Rur to enter his mind to assist him. Rur advised Luke to use the symbiote to his advantage, claiming that tying the Force's abilities into the parasite's emotional drive would make him immensely powerful.
Choosing to ignore Rur, Luke let go, connected to the Force, and was able to free himself of the symbiote's influence and strike down the Queen. Han and all those under the Queen's control were freed, and the Citadel was destroyed by BT Reuniting with his friends, Luke told Aphra to stay away from them.
Afterwards, the rebels and Aphra's crew escaped and went their separate ways. Skywalker later took part in a mission with Leia, piloting a Taylander shuttle with the princess. With Imperial TIE Fighters in pursuit, Skywalker was forced to fly into a nebula , which disabled the shuttle's systems, forcing them to crash land on an ocean planet.
Stranded on the planet for three weeks, Skywalker's experience with machinery such as moisture vaporators helped keep himself and Leia alive. Having to live off of the land, the two grew closer, relating to each other because of their status as orphans. They eventually realized that there was a native species living in the planet's ocean. Not wanting to bring the war to these people, Skywalker and Organa set a trap for the Imperial forces that were pursuing them.
Luke used the native's resouces, as well as his own lightsaber, to fend off an AT-AT and shoretroopers. Although close to being defeated, Leia used a flaming arrow to light explosive chemicals and disable the AT-AT.
Afterwards, they were able to repair the shuttle and return to the Rebel Fleet. They saved R2's X-wing from Darth Vader and escaped in hyperspace.
The team arrived there, discovering the devastation. Fearing further danger, they left without burying the rebel troopers, but Skywalker insisted that they honor the dead. Together they built a cremation pile before leaving.
Luke journeyed to the ravaged moon of Jedha, where he gained insight into the Dark Side of the Force. Having traveled throughout the galaxy with his friends, Luke and his fellow rebels journeyed to what remained of the moon Jedha , the site of one of the Death Star's tests. On the ashy moon, Luke and Leia defended what remained of Saw Gerrera 's Partisans from invading snowtroopers and brought them aboard the Millennium Falcon.
Moving to NaJedha , the planet that Jedha orbitted, Luke met Chulco Gi , an aspirant to the Disciples of the Whills , someone wou could potentially guide him in learning about the Force. Gi led the rebels to the rest of the Partisans on Jedha and placed hoods over their heads, in keeping with Partisan tradition. Led by Benthic , Saw Gerrera's former second-in-command, the remaining extremists held guns at their fellow rebels' heads.
Benthic questioned why the Alliance would attempt to mend their relations with the Partisans and return to Jedha, and Leia revealed that the Empire had resumed mining Kyber crystals on the planet and that the Alliance hoped to aid the Partisans in fighting against the Empire. Though wary of Alliance support, Benthic was nonetheless willing to accept some aid. Luke, shaken by the Partisans' extreme methods, was conflicted by agreeing to help them, but specforces operative Ubin Des reassured him that it was the right thing to do.
Later in the ruined settlement of Ai-jed , Luke, Chulco, and Ubin contemplated why people would stay on a ruined planet. Stormtroopers armed with flamethrowers attempted to incinerate the remaining civilians, but Luke lashed out against them with his lighstaber, cutting them all down. Realizing all that was at stake in the Galactic Civil War, Skywalker approached Benthic with Han Solo and wholeheartedly agreed to assist him in his fight.
Their first target was the drill citadel , a mining device from the planet Shu-Torun that the Empire began using to mine Kyber crystals on Jedha. Benthic and Luke scaled the drill citadel and the Tognath ruthlessly killed the station's guards, much to Skywalker's chagrin. Benthic held a technician at gunpoint and forced him to lower the citadel's shields before killing him as well.
Later, a disillusioned Chulco asked Luke to accompany him to meet the Central Isopter , a death-worshipping cult that Gi claimed was wise in the Force. Although Luke was hesitant to seek the guidance from someone other than a disciple of the Jedi, he nonetheless was willing to go along.
Leia attempted to convince him that his duty to the Alliance was most important, but Luke believed that becoming a Jedi and avenging all those slain by Darth Vader was the most important duty to him.
Entering a chasm alongside Gi, the duo were attacked by a sand slug , a giant, normally herbivorous animal negatively influenced by the Dark Side of the Force. Able to slay the beast, Skywalker and Gi were finally confronted by the Central Isopter, who claimed that they had come to join them "in the shadow of death. The cult implored Skywalker and Gi to meditate and listen to the chasm's call. They both did, but Luke refused to let the Dark Side take hold of him.
However, Chulco was possessed by the darkness and attacked Luke, forcing the Jedi trainee to strike him down. The cultists then announced that they had received a distress call from Chewbacca, who was being pursued by a TIE fighter over NaJedha.
Luke borrowed a ship, was able to destroy the TIE fighter and bring an injured Chewie to the planet, where he provided the Alliance with the plans for the Leviathan , a mobile fortress able to strip mine Kyber crystals from Jedha. Han, Leia, and Benthic formed a strategy to destroy the Leviathan using the plans Chewbacca obtained.
After the meeting, Luke ruminated on the sacrifice Rogue One made to get the Death Star plans to the Alliance, ultimately leading to him making the shot that destroyed the battle station. Skywalker made his way to the bridge of the Leviathan and held its commander, Kanchar , hostage but the Imperial's cybernetic arm was equipped with a blade able to defend against Luke's lighstaber.
Kanchar pursued Luke throughout the ship with his cybernetic arm's blade and flamethrower. Eventually leading the officer to the crawler's hangar, Skywalker activated an ion torpedo, which shut down Kanchar's cybernetics and allowed Luke to knock him out. Having taken total control of the Leviathan with the help of the double-crossing Queen Trios , the rebels brought it to Jedha's chasm, destroye it, and escaped with not much time to spare. Having saved what remained of Jedha and made allies in the form of the Partisans and Queen Trios, Luke and his friends left Jedha.
During the investigation, they ran into native droids and a male Duros named Akar Duel. Their actions made the group leave Lotho Minor, believing that the planet was not a good location for a new rebel base. Upon arriving on the desert world, Skywalker sensed through the Force that there was something more at play beyond the actions of a few mercenaries. He requested the assistance of an agent who had a reputation for desert warfare and, together, the two defeated the mercenary outposts.
The two also discovered from Imperial operatives in the sector that Imperial supplies were being ferried from Nar Shaddaa to Er'Kit, suggesting a large-scale operation was under way. Eventually, Skywalker and the agent arrested the mercenary leader and tracked down the last members of Malachor Company, who had holed up in an empty village.
Among the mercenaries' possessions, Skywalker and the agent discovered a document proving that Malachor Company was preparing to ship supplies somewhere, and its coordinates led Skywalker and the agent to an Imperial base on the planet.
They subsequently attacked several Imperial bases until they found intelligence pertaining to the Empire's operation on the planet. Once they located the base from which the Imperials deployed most of their forces on the planet, Skywalker assaulted it with the assistance of Princess Organa.
The Rebels razed the base, dealing an important blow to the Empire's operations on Er'Kit, but they still lacked vital information on what the Empire's true purpose was on the planet. Skywalker gradually discovered Imperial logs detailing how Malachor Company had been hired by the Imperial Security Bureau and were tasked with forcibly relocating natives to make room for Project Hidden Eye.
This ISB operation was intended to create cybernetic sleeper agents who could be deployed throughout the galaxy and spy on galactic citizens on behalf of the ISB. Upon its discovery, Project Hidden Eye was nearly ready to deploy its first wave of spies. To prevent the operation from being carried out, Skywalker and the agent led their troops to the base that housed Project Hidden Eye. They fought through its staging area and ultimately took out the installation, ending the Imperial project for good.
Skywalker thanked the agent for their service and then remained on Er'Kit for a short time, helping the Rebel Alliance execute additional missions on the desert world. At some point, Luke was given a mission to analyze different worlds in search of which could host a rebel base. As Skywalker meditated on the planet, he began to hear the voice of her friend and companion rebel Leia Organa. Luke thought the Force allowed the two to communicate across the galaxy, but Leia was behind him.
Leia asked what Luke was doing there since Bogano was one of the worlds she had to check out, and Luke told the Force had taken him there. The two were taken to the Bogano Vault by a small animal. Skywalker sensed the Force was strong in the place, and while Leia thought the world might be a good base, Luke disagreed.
Skywalker was apparently right, as the small animal led them to a group of stormtroopers who were dealing with animals of the same species, making it clear that the Empire knew the world.
Following their mission to Shu-Toran , Skywalker, along with Solo and Organa, returned to the Rebel fleet where General Carlist Rieekan assigned Skywalker a mission to the Inner Rim planet Sergia to lure all Imperial forces and probe droids from a refueling station the Rebel Alliance had established on the planet. In 3 ABY , [3] Skywalker and the Rogue Squadron were transferred to the Echo Base , a rebel base on the iced planet Hoth , where he participated in regular patrols of the frozen perimeter under the callsign Echo Three.
Thinking they would have died, they recorded a message for their little son Poe Dameron to explain why they joined the Rebellion.
Skywalker, however, rescued them, helped by Chewbacca by opening a hole in the ice using his lightsaber. Dameron and Bey were eventually treated by a B-series medical droid. Some time later, while reconnoitering the surroundings of Echo Base on [11] the tauntaun Riba , [88] after Solo had departed back to base, Skywalker was attacked by a wampa , only to regain consciousness in its cave.
He severed its arm with his lightsaber and escaped; after a long walk in the icy wind, he collapsed from exhaustion. Near death, he had a vision of Kenobi, who told him to seek the teachings of Yoda in the Dagobah system. Rescued by Solo, Skywalker recovered from his wounds in a bacta tank operated by the medical droids B and FX However, Vader had located Echo Base with one of his probe droids and prepared an imminent attack on the recently-opened Alliance base, [11] thus prompting the Alliance to evacuate the base at once.
After bidding farewell to his friends, [89] for the impending battle , Skywalker was to lead Rogue Squadron in an airspeeder. Though he was shot down, and his gunner Dak Ralter was killed, he got out of his damaged speeder and single-handedly destroyed walker Blizzard 4 with his lightsaber and a thermal detonator. As Imperial forces breached the Rebels' defenses, the last Rebel transport departed, and Skywalker fled the planet aboard his X-wing with R2-D2.
Skywalker then traveled to Dagobah , which turned out to be a remote swamp planet, where he encountered Yoda, the former Grand Master of the fallen Jedi Order. In their initial meeting, Skywalker was frustrated and impatient and was rather short-tempered with the diminutive Yoda, who did not initially identify himself and purposefully tested Skywalker's patience, telling him a story about three brothers, [89] and taking him back to his hut to partake in a meal of rootleaf stew , which he did not find very appetizing.
However, Skywalker gained a new appreciation for the small creature upon learning his identity, and Yoda agreed to train Skywalker only at the insistence of Kenobi's spirit. Skywalker's training proved to be difficult, as his adventurous past had shaped his mind toward action and emotional instinct. During his training with Yoda, the Jedi Master had Skywalker climb a tree to use his senses to find a way through the tree, Skywalker lost his balance and fell from the tree.
Yoda decided to have Skywalker carry him as he redid the task. When Yoda asked him to enter a cave that was strong in the dark side in which he was supposed to find only what he took with him, he was challenged by a vision of himself wearing the armor of Darth Vader , meant to symbolize his inner darkness. Unable to get the visions out of his head, and convinced that his friends would surely die if he did not help them, Skywalker decided to end his training prematurely to rescue them, despite Yoda and Kenobi's insistence that he was not ready to face the dark side on his own yet, but Skywalker was convinced that he'd learned enough to hold his own, and he could not just stand by and leave his friends to the mercy of the Empire.
Seeing that Skywalker's mind was made up, Kenobi let him know that if he ended up facing Vader, he could not interfere on his behalf, and advised him not to give into hatred. Likewise, Yoda advised him to mind what he'd learned. Skywalker promised to do so, and vowed to return to Dagobah one day to finish his training. Upon his arrival at Cloud City's East Platform , Skywalker felt Vader's presence, [89] and went into the nearest building, where he was shot at by Fett, who had come to claim a bounty put on Solo by Jabba the Hutt, and tried to pursue a group of stormtroopers and Imperial officers who held Organa, Chewbacca, and C-3PO captive.
The princess attempted to warn Skywalker that he was walking into a trap, but his path was diverted to the carbon-freezing chamber where Darth Vader awaited him, with the intention to freeze him in carbonite to present him to the Emperor. Skywalker engaged the Dark Lord in a fierce lightsaber duel. During the duel, Vader praised Skywalker's training in the Force thus far and attempted to goad him into giving into his anger and hatred, claiming that it was the only way to defeat him.
Vader managed to knock Skywalker into the carbon-freezing chamber and appeared to have frozen him like he had Solo, but Skywalker lept out of the chamber before the process was finished, which left Vader impressed. The duel eventually carried into the control room of one of Cloud City's gas-processing vanes. Vader began using the Force to throw various objects in the chamber at the young Jedi hopeful.
One such projectile, a large piece of metal piping, was misdirected and smashed through a nearby observation port. The chamber was quickly depressurized, sucking Skywalker out onto the nearby sensor relay catwalk overlooking the reactor shaft.
Skywalker managed to grab on to the catwalk's railing and pull himself up. Vader re-entered the fray and forced Skywalker back onto the catwalk.
Skywalker refused and desperately tried to keep fighting Vader, to which Vader responded with several ferocious strikes, ultimately forcing Skywalker to the very edge of the catwalk and slicing off his right hand. Both Skywalker's hand and his lightsaber fell into the depths of the reactor shaft. The revelation that Vader was Skywalker's father shook the Jedi hopeful to his core. Seeing that Skywalker was vulnerable in his weakened state, Vader offered to show Skywalker the power of the dark side and complete his training, but Skywalker adamantly refused to ever join Vader, the man who had killed his father.
In that moment, Vader revealed the truth: that he was his father. Horrified by Vader's shocking revelation, Skywalker initially denounced the Sith Lord's claim as untrue and impossible, but Vader insisted that they both knew that it was the truth.
Vader further claimed that Skywalker was powerful enough to destroy the Emperor, and when he did, they could rule the galaxy together as father and son.
Though he managed to grab onto a weather vane to avoid falling to his death, he knew he was unable to stay there forever, especially in his weakened state. Calling out to Kenobi at first but getting no response, in desperation, he called out to Leia Organa through the Force, who was able to hear the call. Soon, the Millennium Falcon , with Lando Calrissian , Organa, Chewbacca, and the droids onboard, arrived to rescue him.
As they escaped from Bespin, and the Falcon was faced with the Imperial fleet, Vader reached out to Skywalker through the Force, calling him "son. Haunted by the truth of his parentage, Skywalker found his connection to the Force considerably weakened, with his control over it remaining sporadic.
Aboard the Falcon , Organa informed him of what had happened to Solo. Skywalker wanted to begin searching for his friend immediately, but Organa told him that there was more at stake than just Solo's life and it would be best to reconvene with the Rebel fleet first.
With Skywalker agreeing to this plan, the Falcon jumped to hyperspace. As the Falcon entered the battle, Skywalker volunteered to commandeer the ship's belly gun, despite his injuries. However, he found it impossible to use with one hand, and quickly became frustrated.
His anger resulted in him unknowingly using the Force to make several of the attacking TIE Fighters crash into one another. With Luke stunned by his sudden show of strength, the fleet jumped to hyperspace. With the fleet regrouped, Skywalker found a deserted part of the flagship and attempted to contact Yoda through the Force.
Angry at the Jedi Master's refusal to answer, he almost shattered one of the ship's windows in another frustration-fueled loss of control over his Force abilities. He wondered whether the lack of answers from his mentors signified a premature end to his Jedi training, and who he was meant to be if not a Jedi.
Organa told Skywalker that he should have a prosthetic hand installed in the Nebulon-B frigate Redemption ' s medbay. Although unsure whether it would help his mental state, Skywalker agreed, [94] and received the hand as Calrissian and Chewbacca set out to find Solo. Upon their return, Calrissian found Skywalker training to fire a blaster with his prosthetic hand. Observing the would-be Jedi's struggles, Calrissian suggested that they return to Bespin so as to retrieve Skywalker's lightsaber.
As they talked, Skywalker was suddenly confronted with a vision of a female hooded figure catching his lightsaber and telling him to follow his destiny. Fortunately, Calrissian was able to remotely disable the city's turrets, but the team were soon ambushed by stormtroopers upon landing.
Needing to carry out their missions as quickly as possible to avoid capture, the rebels split up, with Skywalker and R2-D2 heading to the smelting chamber where Calrissian claimed his lightsaber should be located. However, Skywalker found mountains of debris in the chamber and realised that it would be impossible to recover his lightsaber.
Sensing that Organa was in trouble, he abandoned the search and found Calrissian surrounded by stormtroopers. Skywalker used the Force to push the Imperial soldiers through a window, telling Calrissian that he did not need the lightsaber to be a Jedi. Together, they rescued Organa and several Cloud City citizens and escaped, with Skywalker stealing his X-wing back.
He temporarily parted ways with the other rebels, flying off in search of the woman from his vision. Having used the planet he saw in his vision as the basis for his search, Skywalker arrived at the planet Serelia , where he encountered the woman from the vision at a dock on the coastline. However, when he asked whether she was a Jedi, the woman responded by dropping a large amount of fish on top of him and escaping in a boat. Undeterred, Skywalker gave chase but ended up capsizing the boat, washing ashore on a beach.
He followed the woman into a cave, where he was almost killed by several booby traps and eventually fell into a cage that was gradually filling with water. As the woman watched, Skywalker attempted hold back the rising water with the Force, but was unable. The hooded woman asked him who he was and revealed herself to be Verla. Verla informed Skywalker that it would be safer if he was to give up his dream of becoming a Jedi, cynically telling him about Order 66 , the Inquisitorius and Darth Vader himself.
Sensing Skywalker's suspicious reaction to the mention of his father, Verla probed deeper into his mind and realised that he was the son of Vader. She increased the flow of water in the cage, attempting to drown him. Fortunately, Skywalker's life was saved by R2-D2, who incapacitated Verla and resuscitated him.
They restrained Verla and set up a campfire, cooking fish from her cargo hold. When she regained consciousness, Skywalker freed her as a show of good faith and asked her about his vision. Verla told him that she did not possess a lightsaber, as she had given up on the Force and refused to take part in the conflict between the light and dark sides. Although she strongly recommended that Skywalker should leave the Force behind, she informed him of a Jedi outpost from the High Republic Era on the Outer Rim astronomical object of Tempes.
Skywalker flew to Tempes and was almost struck down by the planet's powerful lightning storm. He managed to outmanoeuvre the lightning and land safely, venturing into the outpost. Inside, he found a new yellow-bladed lightsaber but was attacked by the spirit of the Grand Inquisitor, who had been forced to guard the outpost for eternity by Vader. The Inquisitor taunted the young Jedi's skill with a lightsaber, but Skywalker was able to over power him and escape before Vader arrived.
Skywalker returned to the Rebel fleet and reunited with Organa. Organa implored him to show the assorted rebels what he had found, and so Skywalker activated his new lightsaber, its yellow blade representing renewed hope for the future of the Rebellion.
The Empire's Commander Ellian Zahra intercepted a transmission that revealed the Alliances Fourth and Seventh Divisions were planning to rendezvous somewhere in the Inner Rim, so Zahra initiated an attack that saw her split her forces to strike simultaneously. Zahra's primary strike force led an attack on the Alliance's Seventh Division, while her secondary strike force attempted to attack Leia Organa's Fourth Division, however the Fourth had already left their rendezvous point before the strike force arrived.
The Imperial forces overwhelmed the Seventh Division's capital ships. TIE interceptors created a blockade of Home One ' s hangar bay, that prevented Alliance starfighters from launching, including Red Squadron.
Shortly into the battle, the Fourth Division's ships emerged from hyperspace and immediately deployed their starfighters, led by Commander Luke Skywalker, who assumed the callsign Red Leader. Skywalker called for all Fourth Division fighters to form up on him, on an attack run on Home One ' s blockade, to push the TIEs back, while those starfighters who were trapped in the hangar bays prepared to launch, including Wedge Antilles Red Two.
Skywalker then left the space battle to board the frigate where Leia Organa was under attack from an Imperial boarding party, led personally by Zahra. After the command of Red Squadron was transferred to Antilles following his promotion to squadron leader, which pleased Skywalker, [92] he declined to rejoin the squadron and chose to be stationed onboard the Redemption.
When the time came for Organa to attend the top clearance meeting with the Rebel leadership, Skywalker and Nunb met with Antilles for a discussion of "reconnaissance tactics" about Antilles' refusal to pay the Sullustan a drink.
He would later return to escort Organa to her quarters before going to his, and two days later, he saw her off, before catching his own shuttle back to the Redemption. Soon afterwards, he would go to Kothlis , where he would learn of Solo's location—still frozen in carbonite and kept in Jabba the Hutt's palace—, and where he would keep himself up-to-date with the status of the Alliance Fleet's assembly.
He had already devised a plan to rescue Solo when Organa contacted him following the successful Operation Yellow Moon , and showed eagerness to join him on his attempts to rescue the Corellian smuggler. During the raid, Skywalker used his new lightsaber, along with his Force abilities, to clear a path for Rebel forces to acquire copious Imperial fuel stores. His Rebel companions became awed at his use, although one of them, the major in charge of the operation, held reservations about its power as he had only previously seen such power being wielded by the Sith.
Unknown to Skywalker, the Emperor had begun to probe his mental defenses from afar, which caused Skywalker to briefly open his saber in alarm.
As Skywalker and the strike team flew away from the platform, they were ambushed by an Imperial Star Destroyer, which launched several TIE Fighters in pursuit. As the battle began to rage, Skywalker's mind was penetrated by a vision from the Emperor. The vision saw Luke follow a possible series of events wherein he would begrudgingly leave the Rebel strike team to its fate and crash-land on an unknown planet, losing his X-wing in the process.
As he journeyed from the wreckage together with R2-D2, Luke would leave his lightsaber and helmet on the ground, symbolizing his complete retreat from the concerns of the war.
Having later broken free of the Emperor's vision, Skywalker proceeded to aid the Rebels in escaping the Imperial ambush, using his lightsaber to prevent the major's shuttle from leaving, giving him time to pilot the shuttle and draw the Imperials away from the rest of the Rebels.
While his friends bustled about preparing for the rescue, Skywalker retreated into the solitude of a desert cave they had chosen as their rendezvous point. Using the Force to assemble the weapon, he brought the kyber crystal inside to life, making the weapon his own, almost an extension of himself. Afterwards, Skywalker waited to see if Organa's impersonation of Boushh and liberation of Solo was successful without his intervention, but she was only half-successful. She then sent a message to Skywalker and Calrissian that she had been captured as well, prompting Skywalker to act and go to Jabba's Palace.
Skywalker killed the monster, but Jabba was furious and sentenced all the captured Alliance heroes—including an unfrozen Solo—to death in the Great Pit of Carkoon to be eaten by the sarlacc that resided there. However, right before he was put into the pit, Skywalker escaped when R2-D2 shot his lightsaber to him and freed the other prisoners on the skiff.
A skirmish ensued in which Skywalker protected his friends, ended the life of several of Jabba's thugs including Klaatu , [92] and helped Organa escape the Khetanna after she had killed the Hutt. After destroying the sail barge , [13] Skywalker and his entire team escaped unscathed through a dangerous sandstorm, [92] after which he boarded his X-Wing with R2-D2 and parted ways with the others.
Skywalker then returned to Dagobah to complete his training and keep the promise he had made to Yoda, [13] but the aged Jedi Master, who had used the Force to prolong his life beyond what was natural, had fallen ill and was finally starting to succumb to age. Yoda told Skywalker that he'd already completed all the training he required, but in order to finally become a true Jedi, he needed to confront Darth Vader one more time.
Skywalker received such confirmation from Yoda, [13] which angered him that they had lied to him for so long, but Yoda confessed that he knew that Skywalker had not been ready to shoulder the burden of being the child of the Dark Lord of the Sith, to which Skywalker expressed his regret that he did not listen to him the first time. Keeping his promise, Skywalker returned to Dagobah where he received confirmation from Kenobi and Yoda that Darth Vader was indeed his father.
Sensing his turmoil, [92] the spirit of Kenobi appeared before Skywalker, who confronted him for lying about his father. Claiming that the good man that Anakin Skywalker had been had died upon his fall to the dark side, Kenobi stated that he did not directly lie to him about his father; he was simply telling him what happened "from a certain point of view. Skywalker then asked about the "other Skywalker," who Kenobi told him was his long-lost twin sister, who had been separated from him at birth to protect them from the wrath of the Empire.
Skywalker instantly came to the realization that this sister was Organa, which was confirmed by Kenobi. Skywalker nevertheless accompanied his friends on the mission to the forested moon of Endor to destroy the shield generator that protected the DS-2 Death Star II Mobile Battle Station in orbit , volunteering immediately upon arrival at the Rebel briefing above Sullust.
As they approached the moon on the stolen Lambda -class Imperial shuttle Tydirium , Skywalker sensed Vader's presence on the nearby Super Star Destroyer Executor and realized his presence was endangering the mission; yet, it was his presence that prompted Vader to allow their landing. Upon doing so, the Rebel force was discovered by a small force of Imperial scout troopers that were guarding the shield bunker, and Skywalker and Organa pursued them on speeder bikes.
Though they successfully stopped the scouts, Organa became separated from Skywalker. But Anakin Skywalker, the courageous hero, was not truly dead. He shared a vital final moment with his son, removing his mask so he could see Luke with his own eyes, and slipped peacefully away into the Force. While Kanan and Ezra went deep into the Temple, Ahsoka remained in the atrium, waiting and meditating. Suddenly, she experienced a vision: Anakin, cold and angry, demanded to know why she left and betrayed him.
