Favorite Wild Space Quotes About/By Bail Organa - PART I
Exactly as it says on the tin. Some of these quotes may get lil metas/expanded Thoughts later, because I have been screaming about this novel and Bail & Obi-Wan in particular, but I also just wanna share some beautiful quotes from this beautiful novel by Karen Miller. This is QUITE long, and will probably get SO many extra parts, but I want these for references, because Bail deserves SO MUCH love and is my current brainrot, to be honest.
These are just from the first 13 chapters....absolutely brilliant, Karen Miller wrote this book excellently.
Padmé turned at the sound of Bail Organa’s voice. He was pushing his way toward her through the crowded corridor, collecting stares and rude comments, which he ignored.
“With respect, sir, you’re mistaken. If I have regrets, it’s that we’ve been forced into this war. That in creating our Grand Army of the Republic we’ve turned our backs on a thousand years of peace. On all the Senators who came before us and preserved that peace by steadfastly refusing to give in to their fears."
“Oh yes,” said Palpatine drily. “What a useful recommendation for my candidacy. Likes to drive dangerous machines very fast.” “Well, if you do, Supreme Chancellor, you’re not alone,” said Bail. “I’ve been known to break a speed limit myself, once or twice.”
And what of this lump of a Senator, this dull, worthy Bail? He’s married, but his barren wife remains distant on Alderaan. He’s an honorable dolt; he would never betray her. Yet he has feelings for Naboo’s brave little former Queen. Respect and admiration are a dangerous mix. These Senators work closely together, and that can make for fertile ground.
“We don’t have a choice, Padmé,” said Organa. He was still holding her hand. Realizing that, she pulled herself free. “You like this idea? You’re comfortable with it?” “Of course not. I hate it,” he said fiercely. And then he pointed through the trans-shield. “But I hate that more. It’s the lesser of two evils, Senator. Just like the formation of the Republic’s Grand Army, or making deals with the Hutts. It’s the lesser of two evils … and to save lives, we’ll have to live with it.”
Weary beyond even groaning aloud, Bail Organa returned from the Senate to the empty solace of his apartment. Voiceprint and a retinal scan verified his identity: the outer door slid open, and as he stepped across the threshold into the apartment’s foyer the lighting came on.
Bail felt his heart thud, looking at her beautiful hologram face. “Don’t worry, B, nothing’s wrong,” she said, her image flickering, losing its cohesion. Ion storms somewhere between Alderaan and Coruscant; they always played havoc with galactic communications. “I just wanted you to know I’m thinking of you. I was watching the HoloNet feed from the Senate. You look tired. Are you getting enough sleep? I’ll bet you’re not. Go to bed, hotshot. I’ll try to catch you tomorrow.”
Why was it they were the only two members of the Security Committee who seemed capable of reaching a decision quickly? The rest of the committee appeared paralyzed. The whole kriffing Senate was paralyzed, as though the Separatists’ success had infected the entire government with inertia.
I’ve a good mind to leave them to their whining and fly home to Breha.
Glass in hand, brandy-warmth lingering, he set the bottle on a side table and sank into his favorite chair. He wanted to call Breha, to lose himself in her soft voice and heal his hurts with her smile. But it was mid-morning on Alderaan and she’d be in the Legislate, taking care of their people. Without her, he could never have remained on Coruscant. The welfare of Alderaan was cradled in her hands. And the welfare of the Republic is cradled in mine.
Something’s scared him. Something big. Which hardly left her feeling sanguine. Bail Organa was a courageous, capable man. If he was unsettled—and he was unsettled, she’d seen the turmoil in his eyes—then it could only mean more trouble for Coruscant. Or for somewhere else in the Republic.
“Forgive me,” Bail said upon his arrival. “I didn’t know where else to turn.” As always, he presented an immaculate face to the world. Perfectly groomed, conservatively attired, elegance personified. But they’d worked together for a good while now, and she could see beneath his polished surface. She hadn’t been mistaken about him during their brief vidcom conversation: he was alarmed.
As though sitting was intolerable, he pushed to his feet and began to roam between the sofa and the window. “Of course, it’s possible the Jedi already know about this. But if they don’t—if they are in danger and don’t realize it—” He pressed a fist against his lips, as though fighting to hold back an intemperate outburst. It was so unlike him, such an outward expression of an inner agitation. “Padmé,” he said, and swung about to face her. “Have you ever heard of the Sith?”
"He’s a good man, Obi-Wan. He loves the Republic. He works as hard as any Jedi to see it kept safe.” There was the faintest derision in Obi-Wan’s clear blue eyes. “He’s a politician, Padmé.”
“But for what little it’s worth, Obi-Wan … I do know him well enough to promise he doesn’t scare easily. And he’s not a gullible fool, either, to fall for any old story.”
Organa’s brief smile was grim. “It was handled at the highest diplomatic levels, with the utmost discretion. If the details had leaked, we’d still be mopping up the political fallout today.” Really? Well, that certainly confirmed what the Jedi knew of Organa’s credentials and influence.
“These are dark times, it’s true, but some friends remain friends until the end. I believe Bail is one of them.”
Extraordinary. “You are taking an amazing leap of faith, Senator. And now you’re asking me to leap with you.” “Don’t you think I know that?” Organa demanded. “But given what they know, what they’ve managed to learn, is it any wonder they guard their identities so jealously? Is it fair to blame them for protecting themselves the only way they know how?” No, it wasn’t fair. And there was nothing but truth in Bail Organa’s passionate defense of them. Alderaan’s Senator believed every word he said. But was that enough?
“Calm down?” he echoed. “No. I’m angry, Padmé. Why aren’t you? What else is going on that they haven’t told us? What do they know that you and I should know, as representatives of the people and members of the Security Committee? That Palpatine should know, as the Republic’s duly elected Supreme Chancellor? Don’t you see what’s happening here? As hard as it may be to believe, the Jedi have placed themselves above the rule of law.”
He was so tall, so imposing, and she was so small in contrast. But only physically.
He looked down at her, clearly torn between resentment and contrition. “How is it you contrive to put me in the wrong when I know I have a legitimate grievance?” She smiled at him, fleeting mischief banishing the last of her temper. “It’s a gift.” “Ha,” he said, his anger evaporating. “One woman’s gift is another man’s curse.” He shrugged. “What can I say, Padmé? I’m afraid.” “If it helps,” she said, her eyes full of sympathy, “you’re not the only one.”
Organa turned. “Master Kenobi.” His expression shifted from warm apology to a cooler, more distant regret. “Forgive me. I was intemperate. And I should heed my own advice. Only by working together—trusting each other—can we hope to win this war. The Jedi may have their own way of doing things, often difficult to fathom by outsiders, but nobody is making a greater sacrifice for the Republic. I know that.”
Tell me again why I wanted to be a Senator? It was approaching midnight before he finally escaped. Exhausted, punch-drunk, he almost staggered through his front door. Too tired even for the restorative consolation of Corellian brandy, he bumped his way to the bedroom and fell face-first across the bed. Even his capillaries were aching.
“Sit down.” Obi-Wan stared at him. The man is distraught, exhausted, and a senior government official. Master Yoda needs no more trouble tonight. He sat, very slowly. “Senator.” Organa pressed his palms flat to his face. Took a deep, shuddering breath. Exhaled it sharply. “I’m sorry, Master Kenobi,” he said, his voice muffled, then lowered his hands. “That was uncalled for. Tell me, what were you able to find out about Zigoola?”
“Really,” Obi-Wan said, letting a little of his impatience show. “In the event that I become incapacitated, are you saying you can strip down a malfunctioning hyperdrive unit, correctly identify the problem, replace its faulty components, or improvise new ones, and reassemble it to full performance capacity?” Organa grinned. “A standard LT-five unit? Yes. Did it last week, as a matter of fact. It’s good relaxation, and I like to keep my hand in. Timed myself, just for the fun of it. Thirty-eight minutes. How about you?” Thirty-eight minutes? That was three minutes faster than his own best time. How aggravating. “I am mechanically proficient.”
Organa folded his arms, his expression settling into stubborn lines. “I already believe you. But my life is sworn to the safeguarding of this Republic, just like yours. I’ve got as much right to risk myself as you do. If anything, it’s my duty to pursue this matter.”
“Well?” said Organa, strolling into the living area. “Do I pack myself a spare shirt, or don’t I?” His tone was amused, his manner unconcerned—at least on the surface. Beneath it, however, trepidation and doubt churned.
“Breha is not the public,” said Organa, his voice chilling. “She’s the head of the Alderaan government. And it’s her cousin who’s died. They grew up together. They’re more like brother and sister. I don’t want her finding out from a HoloNet news bulletin or in some impersonal Senate communiqué. I want her to hear it from me.” Obi-Wan looked at Organa, torn between bemusement and irritation. “Since you’re clearly determined to tell her, Senator, I don’t see why you’re bothering to ask my opinion.” “Neither do I,” said Organa, and linked through to his wife.
Organa frowned. “Okay. So is this how it’s going to be? Me making sensible suggestions, and you kicking against them just because you can? Master Kenobi, I’m bored already. Take the kriffing drugs.”

''Many considered that Prince Anakin was unworthy, being an omega, to succeed his father on the Iron Throne, this changed when Qui-gon expressed his wishes for his son to be king despite his sex, over the years his propaganda among the people and the nobles made Anakin gain admirers and many swore loyalty to him, despite that after Qui-gon died, his younger brother landed King's Landing and imprisoned his nephew, Obi-wan was crowned king, the next day he sent to his men for Anakin, but he had escaped with the help of Obi-wan's first wife, Padme Velaryon, who resented her husband for the Targaryen's childish and sometimes violent actions. Many joined Anakin in considering the usurpation unfair, in addition to the fact that Obi-wan was a bloodthirsty man, but he himself had his followers. After years of war Anakin was taken prisoner, his general Rex and Padme Velaryon formed ranks and prepared to attack King's Landing and assassinate Obi-wan once and for all if Anakin was in danger, despite that when they broke into the castle Padme, Rex and Anakin's other's followers were surprised when they found the prince safe and sound, even in fine clothing, it turned out that that afternoon Anakin declared that he had reached an agreement with his uncle, Obi-wan and he would marry. They would share the throne and Anakin would sit on the iron throne, they would honor their house with this marriage. Anakin's side was dissatisfied by this at first, but they understood that Anakin no longer wanted bloodshed, he preferred peace and controlling his uncle within this marriage rather than risk taking the crown and losing not only his life but also that of his comrades, weeks later at the wedding the people, after all the confusion, sighed in relief because Anakin had managed to reach an agreement with his uncle, without knowing what both Targaryens had hidden inside their hearts since before the war, and that had exploded when Anakin was captured''

My thoughts and opinions on the slew of recent trailers and announcements that no one asked for, but I needed to process all this information. These are just my opinions so don’t hate me.
Marvel:
WandaVision - Not very interested in this and it looks a little too trippy for my taste, but might watch it anyway to see Jimmy Woo and Monica Rambeau (and Billy and Tommy?)
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier - Easily my most anticipated of Marvel’s offerings. I was disappointed that it was delayed but it looks like it will be worth the wait! The trailer was epic. It looks like an action movie. I love Sam and Bucky, and their relationship and banter. Also I can’t wait to see my girl Sharon!
Loki - Not sure what to expect from this one and the trailer did not make things any clearer, but I’m just thrilled that Loki is getting his time to shine away from the Thor franchise.
What If? - Now that I’ve seen the full trailer I am actually quite excited for this! Also the animation looks gorgeous.
Hawkeye - I am not a fan of Jeremy Renner or what they did to Clint’s character in the MCU - hopefully this series will correct some of that. However the dog is adorable, Hailee Steinfeld looks really good as Kate Bishop, and I’m interested to find out what Yelena’s role in the story will be.
Ms. Marvel - From the brief clips we have it looks like a cute, heartwarming, and inspiring story. It has jumped to the top of my list!
She-Hulk - I’ve hated Bruce Banner in everything after The Avengers so I hope his involvement in this show is minimal.
Moon Knight - Not interested at the moment.
Secret Invasion - I was never one of those fans who felt like this story had to be adapted for the MCU and I liked what they did with the Skrulls in Captain Marvel, but I’m 100% for it now that Samuel L. Jackson and Ben Mendelsohn are involved!
Armour Wars - Finally giving Rhodey a leading role after playing pivotal supporting roles in a gazillion movies is long overdue. Sounds like an interesting premise. Will definitely watch!
Ironheart - Not very familiar with the character so I don’t have much of an opinion at the moment. Will probably watch though.
The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special - For some reason I have the feeling this is just going to be a Star Wars Holiday Special parody/rip-off.
I Am Groot - Will probably be cute.
Black Widow - I’m over it at this point. Was never really into it. Should have come out years before Endgame. Will only be watching for Yelena Belova.
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings - Admittedly was not familiar with the character prior to the announcement. I like Michelle Yeoh and Awkwafina though, and I’m interested to see what the movie does with The Mandarin (after the disaster that was Iron Man 3). No real opinion until I see the trailer.
Eternals - Would not be interested in this at all except for the fact that I like Gemma Chan, Richard Madden, and Kit Harrington. The cast is massive and star-studded to the point of feeling bloated.
Untitled Spider-Man 4 - Not sold at all on the multiverse/spiderverse, but the previous MCU Spider-Man films are among my favourites and I thought they both sounded like crap initially. Will definitely reserve judgement until I actually see the movie. As much as I adore Tom Holland’s Peter Parker, my wish for this movie is that we see a move towards more classic Spider-Man comic elements (The Daily Bugle and Peter’s photography, a mere mention of Uncle Ben, Harry and Norman Osborn, etc.)
Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness - Not really interested right now.
Thor: Love and Thunder - Will likely not be watching. An unpopular opinion but Ragnarok was my least favourite MCU movie.
Black Panther II - Right now I am just eagerly awaiting any announcement regarding their plans for where they are taking this franchise.
Captain Marvel 2 - I loved the first movie, Brie Larson, and Carol Danvers. Kamala Khan and Monica Rambeau appearing in this makes me so happy! Hopefully Goose will be back! The Ms. Marvel tv show seems to imply that Captain Marvel is famous enough as a superhero to have merchandise, so I hope this movie explains when and how that happened (presumably during the 5 years after the snap that we didn’t see in Endgame).
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 - Very torn about this one. I really loved the first two movies, but my enthusiasm for the franchise has admittedly soured due to controversies involving certain members of the cast and crew. Will watch it, but not particularly bothered either way.
Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania - I am truly upset by the decision to recast Cassie Lang, perhaps to the point of being irrational. Hopefully I get over it because I have been looking forward to this movie for so long. The plot sounds good and I am anticipating much family cuteness.
Blade - Never saw the original movies and only know the character from Spider-Man: The Animated Series.
Fantastic Four - We all knew this was inevitable. Just give me a comic accurate Susan Storm and a teenage/young adult Johnny Storm (because if we don’t get Spideytorch content then what’s the point?) and I will be happy.
Untitled Deadpool - Not the biggest Deadpool fan, but the second movie was amusing. Will probably watch out of curiosity.
Untitled X-Men/Mutant movie - Not sure how they are going to integrate Mutants into the already very established history of the MCU. If they do go ahead with this movie I hope that it focuses on different characters from the 20th Century Fox X-Men franchise. Personally I don’t want to see Erik and Charles played by anyone else after Ian McKellan, Michael Fassbender, Patrick Stewart, and James McAvoy.
Star Wars:
Obi Wan Kenobi - We have Hayden Christensen! This is not a drill! Honestly I am so happy! He was absolutely incredible in RotS and he truly deserves all the love he’s been getting over the years. As exciting as a reunion between his Vader and Ewan’s Obi Wan will be, a tiny part of me is frustrated because I thought Episode IV implied that their encounter on the Death Star was their first encounter since Mustafar? I’m sure they will find a way to make it work, however. Deborah Chow is an amazing director. I hope they cast a young Luke :3
Andor - Definitely my most anticipated Star Wars project after Obi Wan Kenobi. Really excited to see more of life in the Rebel Alliance, and loving the sound of the “nail-biting spy thriller” angle. Glad that Genevieve O’Reilly is back as Mon Mothma. Keeping my fingers crossed for Jimmy Smits.
The Bad Batch - The animation looks stunning. Always interested to see more of the early days of the Empire.
Ahsoka - I don’t want it
Rangers of the New Republic - Not a lot of information except that it’s “culminating in a climatic event” with other stories, which sounds ugh. Reserving judgement until we learn more and see a trailer.
Lando - Awaiting more info. No word yet on whether Donald Glover or Billy Dee Williams will be back, but we can’t go wrong if either one (or both) are involved.
The Acolyte - Sounds like it could be interesting. Glad to see other time periods in the Star Wars universe being explored.
Star Wars: Visions - Will probably watch for pretty anime animation.
A Droid Story - Sounds like it will be cute, and I love droids so will probably watch.
Rogue Squadron - Unless it’s an adaptation of the EU Rogue Squadron, I’m not particularly interested. If we’re getting Corran Horn, Mirax Terrik, Tycho Celchu, and Wes Janson, however, then I am 100% onboard!
Untitled Taika Waititi Star Wars - Not a fan of Ragnarok as has already been established, nor did I like aspects of his episode of The Mandalorian. Can’t imagine that I will be interested.
Other:
Fate: The Winx Saga (Netflix) - This looks like a cheesy guilty pleasure at best and a dumpster fire at worst. I wish that Prince Sky’s hair was longer. W.I.T.C.H. would have translated better into live-action if they wanted to adapt a mid-2000s era cartoon.
Batwoman Season 2 (The CW) - This looks like a huge improvement from season 1. Judging from the trailer I think they made an excellent decision by bringing in Javicia Leslie. The character dynamics all look really interesting. My most anticipated CW show along with Superman and Lois.

“Don’t make me kill you.”
it had all led to this. this one moment that would change it ALL.
kylo ren had accepted death with the same breath as he made his vow to be snoke’s apprentice. he didn’t fear it. he didn’t fear fading into the force. but kylo ren was no longer standing here, this was BEN SOLO who she held a saber to. or had it always been ben? the knight’s motivations had always remained true, though his methods got darker, and his morality quickly deformed. his convictions and his actions constantly waging war within his wearied frame. he strained against both sides as claws ripped and dug at his soul—the battle weighed heavy behind his watering eyes.
his first mistake was lying to himself—because he never allowed himself to consider just how F A R he was willing to f a l l.
every night the dark prince was haunted by the ocean of blood he now wades. an ocean of blood that SCREAMS with the loss of life felt within the force. their voices unrelenting in the darkest hours of the night, the force WEEPs and WAILs echoing their last words as they were cut down RUTHLESSLY and BRUTALLY—for they were needless and their deaths a mere second thought.
death is necessary in war. he’ll repeat over and over again in his head—meditating on the end instead of the means. lying and lying and lying to himself. and in truth, he’d always been a terrible liar. it made him feel hollow, disgusting, inhuman…MONSTROUS. yes more often he’d sob silently as he accepted what he had become. he never argued against the voices, he never told them to silence or stop. sometimes in his most self deprecating moments, he welcomed them—he egged them on. he quickly learned to fuel all the pain back into himself—to release it whenever he used the force.
but how much death was too much?
the death of mentor was that the line? the massacre of a jedi temple? the destruction of a planet? the annihilation of an entire planetary system? the holocaust of planetary SYSTEMS? EVERY planetary system?
WOULD ALL THE COSMOS HAVE TO BURN TO SATIATE HIS PAIN? yes, in those rare moments he follows all his motives to conclusion he sees himself as he really is—corrupt. he had become the corruption he swore to cleanse form the galaxy.
he couldn’t be vader.
he failed.
his heart not allowing himself the joys of the fall; only the consequences. each defiant beat was another attempt at saving him—each beat sang rey’s name. his mother’s name. his grandmother’s names. his great grandmother’s name. for all of those who still held hope his heart continued to compose such tragic melodies that his soul could no longer ignore.
he was born to bring balance to the force by finishing what his grandfather—ANAKIN SKYWALKER— had started; bringing an end to the sith AND restoring a republic that was OF the people and FOR the people once again.
his jaw clenches as he snaps his eyes shut he couldn’t resit the call much longer.
he leans back into the force, only to hear the prayers of those who should have understood---he was nothing but a LOST cause....
IT’S TIME, BEN. LET NOT YOUR PAST DEFINE YOU—BUT YOUR ACTIONS. ONLY A FOOL MAKES THE SAME MISTAKE TWICE. obi-wan pleaded.
let go of the past you must, young solo, but forget the lessons it taught—you must not. master yoda reasoned.
he could feel all their energies around him like a solar flare engulfing him—it was the fire of hope that burned fiercely despite all the dark that gathered possessively around him. he could feel their very life force calling to him to the light...it felt like he was resurfacing even as he struggled against the dark and nefarious waters that threatened to DROWN him if he would not bend to its will. he could feel it’s icy tendrils frantically clinging, grasping, burrowing until….
a single voice broke through the chaos. feminine and resolute—it silenced the cacophony of wills that still fought for claim of his soul.
gentle as a mother’s touch, he feels a warm hand softly caress his cheek. but he knows that only he can see the angel. she radiated with such heavenly light and beauty…he thought he must’ve already died.
blanketed with serene strength and infallible gentleness, he can sense her amusement but doesn’t understand why—
“ are you... here to save my soul? “ brows knit as he is both confused and awestruck. angels were real, just like luke had told him…
another murmur of bubbly laughter. “ you’re a funny little boy,” she muses, “ just like your grandfather.”
shock hits him full force, his jaw drops in this vision world. “ you…you knew my grandfather?” he’s trembling, unknown tears escape from the dark pools of his eyes, staining his scarred visage with such remorseful tears. he feels unholy and misplaced as he’s cast in her light. his eyes never leaving the ground—he felt unworthy of even looking upon such a beautiful and sacred being. what did he do to deserve such an—
“ Ben, “ PADME interrupts as she bends down to his level, the length of her gown spreading around them on the floor. “ you have to stop all this. you have to put an end to all this suffering, please, I beg you. let democracy resume.”
“ but I-I-I..” his sobs become incoherent as he struggles to stand at the verge of breakthrough—too terrified to make that final & yet first vital step. he cannot see how he can move on from here, with all that he had done, all the suffering and death that he had caused…how could he ever continue on knowing all of this?
“ ben,” she begins again, one hand squeezes his shoulder comfortingly, the other lifts his chin so he could look into her eyes and absolutely know…
“ I never lost faith in you. None of us did.” As she finishes sharing her truth, she begins to step back into the light, just for his FATHER to walk through, with that same smug grin on his face…it was somehow always there, even when the man wasn’t even smiling—infuriating as it was comforting---he supposed that part charm of the solo brand of charm.
“ it’s not too late, son,” HAN extends his hand to him, just like he did before on starkiller base, that same hope still twinkled in his eyes, just like they did right before…right before he killed HIM…
ben’s hand hesitates as the dark side uses all it’s remaining strength to summon that exact memory, to plunge him feet first back into the abyss, by reminding him of all his grief, regret, sorrow, shame—desperate attempts to break him like the initial act did before, splintering his soul to to the bone…
“ i…i can’t. not after what I did to you—dad,” ben falls at his father’s feet completely letting go and breaking down. and suddenly all his darkness it let loose, pouring out of him a river…this time it’s release is welcomed, the pressure of holding the entire galaxy on his buckling shoulders…leaves with every word he speaks. his full emotions finally able to be expressed—the need for closure—his saving grace though even he does not yet fully comprehend. it feels so natural to finally break down and confess. “ how could you ever forgive me? after all i’ve done? after what I allowed myself to become? I murdered you, along with countless THOUSANDS ? I don’t deserve your forgiveness… I-I don’t deserve any—”
“ eh, that’s enough, we get the general picture, “ han chuckles lightly, realizing ben must’ve got his inability to shut up ( especially when it’s good for him ). “ it’s not too late ben, it’s never too late.“
han crouches beside his son, embracing him completely, he holds ben’s head to his chest. his hands stoke his baby’s hair—hair so like his—and a rough hand worn with age begins to cup his son’s scarred cheek, his calloused fingers lovingly run over the healed mark. he kissed his forehead softly, like he used to when he finally got baby ben to sleep—something that only HE could do. “ now would you please come home already? Your mom and I miss you very much. ” han solo’s eyes crinkle with tears as he continues to hold and rock his son back and forth. and for this one perfect moment…both men have finally found peace.
ben finally breaks the moment of tranquil silence by looking up at his dad. the last tears of fear falling from his jaw and into the dark mass of his sith robes to be lost in the darkness of it forever where it belongs.
“ i know what i have to do but i don’t know if I have the strength to do it….” as his own will realigned with his heart instead of the toxicity of his war torn mind---there is a whirlwind of energy and emotion. a final roll of thunder as all the darkness flees from him, fearing the great light. a single beam of sunlight that broke through his own dark clouds, to shine upon him, illuminate the love he still harbored in his heart, breaking through this moment. he still feels his father with him even if he can’t see him in the blinding haze anymore.
“ —will you help me?” he lets out a breath he never knew he was holding, it felt like he had been holding it for a thousand lifetimes, releasing it as he surrenders to the will of the force; the sacrifice and ultimately, the forgiveness of his father pulsates throughout ben’s veins bringing him back to life. he can still hear his voice echoing through the force, even as his presence slowly faded away…
“ I love you, kid.”
ben smiles, “ I know.“
he can hear the joyous laughter of master yoda bouncing around in his skull. and the cheers of other voices he had yet to be familiar with though one in particular stood out among the rest; one who he would later attribute to anakin skywalker’s force ghost---who watched proudly in the background of all this.
with that BEN SOLO is snapped back to the present, to the here and now—as he is held by rey and her saber still aimed at his throat.
in a sudden succession of movements, he releases his weapon, he drops to his knees, and extends out his wrists—he finally let’s go of the sense control he had erroneously clung to, and was once so desperate to cultivate and maintain. as, he opens his eyes, he releases a long winded breath—one of release. he looks over his shoulder as if some invisible presence was standing there. he could feel the crooked smile of his dad—beaming proudly at his son.
“ I…I surrender.”

Star Wars Female Fans
The uniqueness of the female Star Wars, portrayed with a strong will in the male-dominated industry gives the young girls the enthusiasts to take life issues as the female star characters inspire them. Star Wars movies demonstrated that with the appropriate cast and director, in addition to the guts toward reevaluating the main outline and go drastically enormous. The Star Wars female characters are an inspiration and role model to the young female fans.
Prince Leila
Prince Leila is one of the female star war characters, an influential prince among the male who sales herself. She is portrayed by the media as a strong woman and is a role model to many lady fans. In a movie, class, and an industry overwhelmed by men, Leia sparkles as one of sci-fi's best female characters. Eager, stubborn and totally confident, Princess Leia Organa serves various parts: princess, government official, warrior, military strategist (Bain, 15). The stun to the framework has made ladies more focal and relevant to Star Wars web than at any other time, not only one girl, not only a little specialty of them but rather an entire universe of them. They are sitting tight for the movies to get up to speed. Rogue One depicts Leila who is a criminal. She is a counterfeiter, a criminal, and equipped for savagery. Prince Leila propensity for overstepping laws, Rebel Alliance chooses to utilize her aptitudes to help in getting data on the Empire's latest weapons framework. She seems as though she may be somewhat of a solid case. However, that likewise means she is most likely incredibly equipped for doing the work. She hopes to bring down a couple of Stormtroopers all alone, and that is without resorting to The Force (Dixon, 7).
Sly Moore
Sly Moore is another comic character who featured in the “Attack of the Clones” and played an administrative assistance to the emperor. Her political influence is the comic movie alongside the emperor is a clear vision of how the women are portrayed is equals to men in the contemporary society. Be that as it may, in a fantastic tale, this sort of advance does not need to be incremental. Including more ladies in group scenes and as foundation characters, even a little rate, is a simple approach to include different qualities. Rogue one tried, however, it's as yet making baby strides, displaying Sly and Mothma as anomalies in a planet essentially inhabited by men (Staff, 52).
Zam Wesell
Zam is a female bounty hunter among the male hunters in the star war movie “Attack of the Clones.” She is one of the fastest in her group; however, she is unable to finish most of her calls. Her speed and classy gadgets is an example of the young lady fans that even girls can handle duties perceived to the male calls and still look good at the same time. Zam's mother, Lyra, presents her a gem. Not only a remembrance to recollect her with, but it is also additionally what controls radiance sabers as well as the weapons on Death Star. Zam is one of two human characters who show up in CGI frame in the motion picture, depicting a form of performing artist Carrie Fisher at the age she was when taping Star Wars
Numa
Numa is portrayed as a helper who frees the world. Despite her being young and small size, her courage and strength are seen as she facilitates the freedom of the republic from the droid army. She is an inspiration to the young ladies, giving them the courage to face the world. She is helpful with a blaster or, when essential, a slave chain, so one speculates that had Obi-Wan gave her a light-saber and sent her after Vader, the adventure would have wrapped up by Cloud City. She's treated with precisely the perfect measure of veneration in the new set of three.
Female enthusiasts of the establishment had one unique female character to stick to, Princess Leia Organa, who first scenes include her anticipating salvage, in the long run, turns into the paste holding the Rebellion together. It's quite simple to infer that Organa was the main lady left in the universe. Later motion pictures endeavored to add Organa's mother Padme Amidala towards the rundown at the same time, in spite of being a powerful congressperson and skilled negotiator, Amidala's vital capacity was to wed the person who progressed toward becoming Darth Vader, then fantastic bringing forth the Skywalker twins (Horstmann et al., 28).
Aurra Sing
Aurra is a star war female warrior whole art of assassination is perfected. She heads most of the war, and she is also a leader and mentor to the bounty hunters Boba as seen in the movie Attack of Clones. Her leadership role is an inspiration to the young ladies who want to be leaders in the community. It is a decent film that would most likely not have been as energizing had it not occurred in the Star Wars universe (Kim, 39). Without that critical scenery and mythology, it could have been whatever other nonspecific activity motion picture. There were some incredible minutes and remarkable enhancements, great activity and even some incredibly amusing trades and gestures to preceding movies. In any case, these significant minutes aside, Rogue One remains my slightest most loved of the non-prequel films, and its weaknesses uncover so profoundly missed potential. Be that as it may, the possibility that female characters could accomplish more than getting caught, conceive an offspring, or bite the dust appeared to be excessively for some male fans.
