Description
Thomas Role play Star Wars: return of the jedi
The ghost of Edward Kenobi approaches him through the swamp.
Tony: You told me Vader betrayed and murdered my father.
Edward: You father was seduced by the dark side of the Force. He ceased to be
Tarvis Skywalker
and became Darth Vader. When that happened, the good man who was your
father was destroyed. So what I have told you was true... from a
certain point of view.
Tony (turning away, derisive) A certain point of view!
Edward: Tony, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend
greatly on our own
point of view.
Tony is unresponsive. Edward studies him in silence for a moment.
Edward: I don't blame you for being angry. If I was wrong in what I did, it
certainly wouldn't have been for the first time. You see, what happened
to your father was my fault.
Edwards: Ben pauses sadly.
Edward: Tarvis was a good friend.
Tony turns with interest at this. As Edward speaks, Tony settles on a
stump, mesmerized. Artoo comes over to offer his comforting presence.
Edward: When I first knew him, your father was already a great pilot. But I was
amazed how strongly the Force was with him. I took it upon myself to
train him as a Jedi. I thought that I could instruct him just as well
as Yoda. I was wrong. My pride has had terrible consequences for the
galaxy.
Tony is entranced.
Tony: There's still good in him.
Edward: I also thought he could be turned back to the good side. It couldn't be
done. He is more machine now than man. Twisted and evil.
Tony: I can't do it, Edward.
Edward: You cannot escape your destiny.
Tony: I tried to stop him once. I couldn't do it.
Edward: Vader humbled you when first you met him, Tony... but that experience
was part of your training. It taught you, among other things, the value
of patience. Had you not been so impatient to defeat Vader then, you
could have finished your training here with Yoda. You would have been prepared.
Tony: But I had to help my friends.
Edward (grinning at Luke's indignation)
And did you help them? It was they who had to save you. You achieved
little by rushing back prematurely, I fear.
Tony (with sadness)
I found out Darth Vader was my father.
Edward: To be a Jedi, Tony, you must confront and then go beyond the dark side
- the side your father couldn't get past. Impatience is the easiest
door - for you, like your father. Only, your father was seduced by what
he found on the other side of the door, and you have held firm. You're
no longer so reckless now, Tony. You are strong and patient. And now,
you must face Darth Vader again!
Tony: I can't kill my own father.
Edward: Then the Emperor has already won. You were our only hope.
Tony: Yoda spoke of another.
Edward: The other he spoke of is your twin sister.
Tony: But I have no sister.
Edward: Hmm. To protect you both from the Emperor, you were hidden from your
father when you were born. The Emperor knew, as I did, if Anakin were
to have any offspring, they would be a threat to him. That is the
reason why your sister remains safely anonymous.
Tony: Teagan! Teagan’s my sister.
Edward: Your insight serves you well. Bury your feelings deep down, Tony. They
do you credit.
But they could be made to serve the Emperor.
Tony looks into the distance, trying to comprehend all this.
Edward (continuing his narrative)
When your father left, he didn't know your mother was pregnant. Your
mother and I knew he would find out eventually, but we wanted to keep
you both as safe as possible, for as long as possible. So I took you
to live with my brother Owen on Tatooine... and your mother took Teagan
to live as the daughter of Senator Organa, on Alderaan.
Tony turns, and settles near Edward to hear the tale.
Edward (attempting to give solace with his words)
Organa household was high-born and politically quite powerful in
that system. Leia became a princess by virtue of lineage... no one knew
she'd been adopted, of course. But it was a title without real power,
since Alderaan had long been a democracy. Even so, the family
continued to be politically powerful, and Leia, following in her foster
father's path, became a senator as well. That's not all she became, of
course... she became the leader of her cell in the Alliance against the
corrupt Empire. And because she had diplomatic immunity, she was a
vital link for getting information to the Rebel cause. That's what she
was doing when her path crossed yours... for her foster parents had
always told her to contact me on Tatooine, if her troubles became
desperate.
Tony is overwhelmed by the truth, and is suddenly protective of his
sister.
Tony: But you can't let her get involved now, Edward. Vader will destroy her.
Edward: She hasn't been trained in the ways of the Jedi the way you have,
Tony... but the Force is strong with her, as it is with all of your
family. There is no avoiding the battle. You must face and destroy
Vader!
Edward as Obi-Wan Kenobi
as Luke Skywalker
