    Titel: Silent lucidity

    Editor: DarthUncle

    Timeframe: All happens between Obi´s death in ANH and Luke´s arrival on Dagobah during TESB.

    Place: Dagobah

    Characters: Obi-Wan and Yoda

    Summery: After Obi-Wan sacrifices his life for Luke on the 1st death star on solemn purpose, he joins Yoda in his excile on Dagobah as a foce ghost. Both jedi masters enjoy each other´s company, have daily conversations, exchange their wisdom, share their memories and dream about the arrival of a new hope for the galaxy.

    Inspiration & dedication: I felt doing another Yoda story after my 1st one. And I needed a birthday present for my brother-in-law, DU´s twin.

    More Yoda stories: Always two there are:"Waiting for tomorrow", another Yoda story about the Dagobah exile.

    Page 1:
    While darkness, greed and malice rein the galaxy, Yoda and I have found silent lucidity here on Dagobah.

    Of course we care what happens around us, but we fight our enemies in a more subtle way.

    Page 3:
    Qui-Gon joins us now and then, but meetings with him get more and more seldom. He is on his way becoming one with the force for good. His mission is almost complete. And he left us his heritage: the secret teachings of the Whills.

    Page 5:
    It was strange for me to be a padawan under Qui-Gon again, but even for a jedi master there is much to learn. Not only from the failures of the past. Yoda fully agrees on that. He also had his heart broken by someone he trusted and loved like his own kin.

    Page 7:
    Dagobah is a mysterious world, cloaked in dense mist. That makes it the perfect hiding place for us until the right time has come. In daylight the miracles of the living force can be seen. Then even the swamp land shows us its friendly side.

    Page 9:
    At nightfall it can happen that the flickering fames of the small fire place reveal things to us which we do not wish to remember: the fall of Anakin brought down the entire jedi order. Darth Vader and the Emperor finished what was left over.

    Page 11:
    On other occasions warmth and laughter rule the humble hut that Yoda owns. At those blissful moments old comrades and dear friends are almost visible to us through the stories that we tell to one another. Then it seems to us they never died in the jedi purge.

    Page 13:
    Darkness can vanish like dust through a chimney, but you shiver when you can feel it passing by. We are aware of many dark deeds that the sith commit at present. Friendship and true love have everlasting echoes though. Padmé & Siri taught me that very lesson.

    Page 15:
    When we decided the fate of Anakin?s offspring Yoda and I took up a very heavy burden. Unfortunately it was necessary to split up the twins and hide them in different locations: Leia in open public and Luke at a place that Vader dares not to visit anymore.

    Oh, bird, you found out about this project before I even was able to post you a link!

    You are quicker in reading than I am in sending and doing the household matters inbetween!

    Dear Sara, there was a point when I thought that the pictures should be woven into a story. I felt there was more to those pictures.

    And Ty, there will be even more soon. I found out that happiness is as good as a motor than stress & anger at work.

    This was my favorite line. :)
    They're happy.

    And the last picture was my favorite, too! So pretty!

    Great job, here, Azure!

    Dear ratna, the title is inspired by a wonderful song by the band Queensryche.

    Dear GKilkenny, thanks for popping by!

    Dear Ceillean, this is also the very painting & text fragment taht I like most.

    Okay here are the last two:


    page 17:
    The force is always in motion. So it is difficultto say for Yoda and me how the Skywalker twins will master their destiny. Their various foster parents formed their young characters well. Yet Luke and Leia carry the ability with them to be either good or be evil


    page 18:
    [image=http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n2/AzureAngel2_2006/SW%20pictures/PB260165.jpg]

    page 19:
    Life is full of choices, especially for those who are talented in the force.

    But while we are waiting, Yoda and I, we believe that there is always a new hope for the galaxy.

    My brother-in-law, DU´s twin, was also very happy with this book as a belated birthday present. But when one´s birthday is the 23rd December this calls for a special present.
