This just keeps getting better and better. When you said the acolytes I thought you were going to try to set Luke up with a religious order ala Dune. Does Emperor Skywalker have a Sith Apprentice or other darkside elite?

Hopefully we'll get a sparring match between Luke and Mara before too long.

Let's see. There are looneys that think Vader will come back to life bugging Luke and Mara has to put up with constant warnings that Luke is up to something. They'll both be nuts in no time. wink

Good work. Can't wait to see more.

I'm in a hurry, so...

Luke and Mara don't seem worried, but everyone else is. I like Kejal. He seems wise.

I can't wait for more.

Being Emperor isn't all fun and games. It's a lot of work, too! I like seeing Luke doin' his job: it's interesting to see the differences between his methods and what I imagine Palpatine's would be in the same instance. Stunning the acolytes (twice even) and then posting guards, as opposed to just killing them. I think it's realistic that you've made his rule more...benevolent, to an extent.

This story (thus far, anyway) has a very calm, rational feel to it. Mara is quite serene, as befits a Jedi. Luke is, too, which is actually similar to profic Luke in a way, but with that whole "I'm a Sith Lord" edge to it. wink

Adi is wonderful! She brings warmth and humor and love to the mix. It will be interesting to see how Mara and Luke react to each other, if they will have that chemistry. devil

So the Dune thing wasn't my imagination? Good, I'd hate to feel silly. tongue

Another amazing chapter, loving this story!

*ooohs* and *ahhhs*

I love how Luke and Mara are so certain... The acolytes amused me too. Definitely remind me of Dune.

The annals at the beginning are good, too.

Oh, I really can't wait to see the first meeting between these two now. I can see them both trying to play it so cool. tongue

I love this version of Luke-so in command and calculating. He's incredible!

More soon!

Ooh, people think Vader's coming back from the dead? o.O *glances at her s/n* Maybe I should go an join the club, I wouldn't feel too out of place ...

I enjoyed the descriptions of their offices, just that little snippet of life. And "Get rid of it all" just seems like such a Vader statement. tongue

Still wanting to know what happened to Han and Leia and why Luke seems so reasonable compared to the rest of the Sith. tongue Because, you know, from what I'm reading he doesn't really sound all that evil at all.

Shall eagerly wait for more. grin

LOL at the thought of Elli being part of the Vaderian acolyte group! laugh *huggles somewhat coherent Elli* hugs

The thought of Luke calmly and busily disordering all his documents still makes me laugh every time I read that part. grin

“Let them stay there for an hour, then ask them to leave. If they don’t, stun them and drag them out,” Luke ordered briskly, instantly, not looking up from what he was reading – or even pausing.

LOL! He's such a remarkably efficient Emperor. tongue

“It’s not unreasonable,” Mara said softly.

“It’s insane,” Adi said in agreeable tone.


I love Adi saying that so agreeably. grin

It had been eleven years since he had given the Republic a major blow – when it was then the Rebellion, at Corunlder. But no one had forgotten it, and no one could fail to note how well he ruled, how well he countered their every move, and how well he had kept them out of the Empire.

Skywalker was no longer a child, and he hardly been more than one at Corunlder. But the Republic had grown as well, and however he planned on making the Republic pay for the trade agreements and ceasing of hostilities, he wasn’t going to get away with it.


*bounces happily* grin grin grin

He was revered by many even after his death.
That line is...chilling...

I love this! Absolutely amazing!

You left it off perfectly...and now I want more.

Luke seems so calm for a Sith, but then I always think of Vader as the Sith example. The cults were funny and I do like that Luke isn't bloodthirsty. Luke and Mara's meeting should be very interesting.

Wonderful, dearest. Luke is a creepier Sith than Vader. I always thought he would be, simply because Anakin, even though he had independence, was looking for a leader to follow.

"The problem is, that people don't always agree."

"Then they should be made to."

"By whom? Who's going to make them?" You?"

"No, of course not me. But someone. Someone wise."


Luke, on the other hand, has independence without looking for someone to guide him. He has Padmé's tendency to take control of any situation. That, combined with Anakin's temper and Force-strength, doesn't make for another Vader--it makes for another Palpatine.

Marvelous characterization, dearest. I can't wait for more!
