	I was enthralled from the first word of that chapter to the last! I'm a very happy reader right now. Luke as the Emperor is amazing, complex and very different, but the core of LUKE is still there. Mara is very much the Mara I remember from Canon, but thrust into a completely different situation! Interesting! “Do you think you scare people?” Mara asked at last. “Only the sensible ones,” Skywalker replied. Mara shot him a surprised look. “Are you sensible?” he asked, looking directly into Mara’s eyes. Mara didn’t flinch. She smiled. “Guess not.” Skywalker smiled. It was a considering smile – a smile that showed intelligent pleasure. “Good,” he said simply. Loved this exchange! And the Noghri? Hooray! -----signature----- R.I.P John, Alex, Jason, and Christian Never forgotten Soldiers' Angels http://soldiersangels.org/ 2114 soldiers waiting for someone to care

	Hmmm...what could Luke be having nightmares about? Looks like Leia will be entering the scene shortly. I wonder how long it will take Luke to realize who she is...if he doesn't know already. Never know what he could be hiding. Luke's appears to be spreading disinformation through Mara. He has one big plan, that's for sure. I can't wait to see what it is. The question is whether he'll avoid revealing personal things like he did in this go around. And Luke got the Noghri bodyguards. This is going to be a fun read, that's for sure. Keep up the good work. -----signature----- Destiny of the Skywalkers II: Splintered Paths OT AU (L/M H/L A/P) http://boards.theforce.net/the_saga/b10476/28042042/

	Eventually, his breathing evened out. He had nightmares in cycles – one every night for a week, and then nothing for at least three months. As such, he wasn’t surprised by having been awakened. His staff wouldn’t be surprised either – he would be cranky for the next week. He had already noticed with some amusement them preparing for it. I thought that was amusing. He recognizes many of his own weaknesses. This story is amazing, I don't know what else to say about it. Except perhaps, MORE? -----signature----- Let Me Go http://boards.theforce.net/The_Saga/b10476/18359174/?2 Master to JediCallista_1_6_e54 A Mother's Wishes http://boards.theforce.net/The_Saga/b10476/20272243/?0

	Tuesday and Friday -- my new favorite days. Loved the beginning, with the insights into Luke -- how he apparently had been beaten as a child, how he secretly cried in the shower after the nightmare. Also we find out where Leia is, that Alderaan is still there, and that few people know how Vader got hold of Luke. The interaction of Luke and Mara was great; each surprising the other. And Luke's conversation with Kejal showed how Luke is certainly not soft, considering the Vaderians, and how far-reaching his calculating is, with how he has planned out what info he is telling Mara. I love this 'cool, calculating, but deep-down not-so-bad' version of Luke. -----signature----- It was on her fifteenth day in the darkness of the Nirauan cave when Mara Jade awoke to discover a rescuer had finally arrived. It was not, however, any of the potential rescuers she would have expected. It was Luke. ~~And the rest is history~~

	and Luke - well. Liking the image I'm getting doesn't mean I like him...just that, well, I like the image...he strikes me as intelligent, devious, cunning...none of this whininess that pervades his character in a lot of the books. Skywalker was making everything difficult – he retained enough total control that doing anything he did not wish was nearly impossible to accomplish, and yet he gave enough freedom that people were willing to believe more would come. Moreover, he endeared his people to him. At this point, it seems like he has all of the Emperor's strengths and few of his failings Only Bail, Yoda and Obi-Wan knew the truth Is Obi-Wan still alive? And is Leia going to be trained as Luke was in ESB? Mara folded her arms and shot Mauwel a dirty look with a sweet smile I really like how you're writing Mara...a Jedi with a distinct edge about her Skywalker looked at her, expression still mild, and raised an eyebrow I get the feeling there's more to Mauwel than we see... And come on, Luke, did you really expect her not to ask any questions? “Only the sensible ones,” Skywalker replied. Mara shot him a surprised look. “Are you sensible?” he asked, looking directly into Mara’s eyes. Mara didn’t flinch. She smiled. “Guess not.” I loved this exchange We already got a warrant The Empire takes time to get a search warrant? Never would have thought She puts me off balance, and I can’t figure out how she does it. Glad to see she's getting her feet back under her.

	Ah... so we know where Leia is. Where is Han, I wonder? I absolutely love the Luke/Mara interactions. They keep surprising one another... and Luke's plotting and planning is awesome. I also like the distinctions between Luke, Vader, and Palpy. -----signature----- K/J = Dark Lady of the JCC \| Master to Darth-Wanderguard Adopter of Rosh_Penin Désolée, mon président est un idiot.

	He had nightmares in cycles – one every night for a week, and then nothing for at least three months. - Poor Luke. “As Your Highness may or may not know, I have a daughter there which I have not seen for quite some time,” Bail said. Skywalker’s eyes narrowed. “Ah, yes. Leia Organa. One of the New Republic’s people,” he said casually. So, Leia is alive. Is she a Jedi, too? “I want to see him,” Mara said, emphasizing each word, carefully bringing out each syllable. - Mara is in love , Mara is in love .... “But you are still troubled.” “I told her something true, Kejal. Yes, this time I used it – but next time?” Luke said fiercely- Oh Force, how could you tell something which is true, Luke?! Perhaps she should be more carefully watched,” Kejal suggested. Luke paused. “Put two Noghri on her.” - I wonder when Mara will realize that she is being watched by the Noghris. She won't be happy about it. Oh, but I like Noghris! -----signature----- "Ich geh' jetzt 'nen Plätzchen mampfen, Mampfred!" "Wie, du stehst auf der Leitung?"- "Hä?

	Great post!! Your portrayal of Luke is fantastic. Of course, I have always liked the bad boys. I definitely prefered Luke in "Dark Empire"than his portrayal in the other novels. Maybe it was just the tight leather pants. Great job. I cannot wait for the next post. Thanks for giving us the posting schedule. This way I don't go crazy checking for updates all the time.

	Great post. Once again you had me spellbound. I liked the way Mara was able to get a little info out of Luke then, his devious plotting afterwards. Methinks Luke's dreams are going to be very important later on 'cause "Jedi don't dream". I wonder if those scars are battle scars or hints of the masochism of the Sith. Luke seems to have the strengths of the previous Emperor's with much different faults. Luke has Noghri's hanging around, I wonder if he has any Blue skinned aliens or scoundrels hanging aroung?

	Sheets that stay cool? I'd pay a trillion dollars for some of those in the middle of summer! Mara folded her arms and shot Mauwel a dirty look with a sweet smile. LOL, only Mara could pull that off. tries to do it and fails miserably I like that you've used the Noghri. It's a nice touch that somehow makes the story that much more believable. Also, I love the way you reveal information about the characters and the AU storyline. You have to pay attention to catch it all. So Luke is playing Mara...he should be very careful. When she finds out, she is going to be so mad. Nice post, obaona. And yay for posting schedules! -----signature----- Those who don't believe in magic will never find it. (Roald Dahl)

	snort Okay, I'll be the sane Vaderian who gets off-planet by disguising herself as ... I dunno, a giant green hamster off to give a birthday party on Alderaan. o.O And yes, I am perfectly aware of how contradictory that single sentence is. Interesting look into Luke's dreams, his personal life. Seems as if all is not quite as it seems with the galaxy's favorite Emperor. And stars, if there's one flavor I like more than evil!Luke, it's tormented!Luke ... this should be rather entertaining. Other question would be whether or not Luke had taken an apprentice, with the two-Sith-rule thing. That'd be rather interesting. By the stars, I'd almost forgotten about Obi-Wan, with my focus on the younger OT characters -- is he alive, then?? shall need to pay attention, she supposes And though we know where Leia is, where's Han ... eh, we'll find out sooner or later, with this story in your capable hands. Sorry this is kinda short, but Physics final tomorrow. Off to PM you with random nothingness again ... -----signature----- La sang et le vin ont la meme couleur. I think, therefore I am.
