HAN AND LEIA: because no matter how much he might love her– no matter how much he might give himself to her– she could never be content with that alone. her vision extended beyond him, just as it extended beyond herself, to all the beings of the galaxy. and to take that away from her, whether by force or even by persuasion, would be to diminish her soul. and to take away part of what he'd fallen in love with in the first place" – dark force rising, timothy zahn (1992)
