The Wind Beneath My Wings


I am going to tell you a secret.

I want to tell you who my hero is. At risk of treason I confess that it is not my master, Sidious, whom you call Palpatine. And it is certainly not Obi-wan Kenobi, the righteous fool who should have been like a father to me, but could not bring himself to be that strong. But Master Qui-gon Jinn could. He was taken from me before I even got a chance to really know him. Despite this, I loved him.

Qui-gon used the Force to see what was wrong with things, and then set them straight as cleanly as he could. He was decisive, and he was quick. He knew what he needed to do and he brokered no guff from anyone about it.

When I met him I thought to myself, "This is exactly how I have dreamed a Jedi Knight to be."

He was pure. He had no relations with either women or men. He ate no meat, and he barely slept. He drank only water and wine. The Force swirled around him like a cape, and when I closed my eyes I could see the figures it described burning against the darkness of my eyelids.

I think I thought he was a god. I know I thought he would be my dad.

But Obi-wan was too weak to defend him when it counted, and Qui-gon died.

Obi-wan was a pretender to the role of Qui-gon's son, just as he would later play at being the father of my son. Obi-wan was slippery, bondless, secretive, cunning. Nobody says these things about him, but I know. I lived with him for years. So many of the things he did were just not fair.

Hold on. I need a death-stick.

I am back. Where was I? Oh yes, Obi-wan...

When the moment came to strike down Obi-wan, I hesitated. I am still not quite sure why. But the ghost of Qui-gon whispered to me, and told me what to do. Kill him!

So I did it.

Up yours, Obi-wan Kenobi. You will never pretend at anything again. You hid from me the one truly beautiful thing I have ever made: a baby boy. And you have corrupted him with your lies. (At least the green worm Yoda is dead. For this I am grateful. Trained as Jedi young Skywalker shall not be. Ha!)

Meanwhile, the search for the elusive Millennium Falcon in the asteroid field has yielded no results. The whole affair has put me in a sour mood. Can you tell?

Forget it. I am going to return to the bridge to shatter asteroids with my mind. I find it soothing, and the officers really get a kick out it.

Dear Sith Lord Vader,

Long time reader, first time commenter.

Are you truly comforted having "killed" Obi-Wan? Deep within, you know that striking him down will only make him stronger. His ghost will continue to provide guidance for your son. Perhaps that's why you did it? For Luke's benefit? I think you should look deeper on this one.

Also, any insight as to why some Jedi's dissapear when killed and others do not?

Regards,

Lord Vader,
Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback on our latest capital assault line, the AT-AT walkers. Although we try to consider every combat scenario, our design team must admit that low-altitude aerobatics with tow cables really caught us off-guard. You bring up a more substantive point, though: the legs. Mechanical legs are a weakness in any design. We blast-shielded them, reinforced them, and made them very stable, but in the end, legs can get tangled, stuck, or Vorm Rat-tied, as you put it.

As a result of your brilliant suggestions, we are redesigning the new AT-AT capital assault systems based on hover technology, subsequent to some recent corporate acquisitions from the Trade Federation. In an effort to foster goodwill between us, we humbly offer the first production run to you, gratis.

As promised, the original design team for the AT-AT present-day have been transported to your command ship, along with their next of kin. They are all very pleased to be considered worthy of your personal audience, and look forward to working on that "personal project" you mentioned.

Keep in touch,

You may not remember us at the Tatooine public library, but we remember you. How could we forget you when you still have that overdue book, "How to Hitch a Ride With a Jedi"! We keep sending you overdue notices, but you have been ignoring them. This is your last chance. Return the book and pay the overdue fee of 4,000,000,000 imperial credits, or we'll send old Mrs Macontosh, from your younger days, to collect it!

Dear Sir,

My name is Mojobo Unfufu, and I am an exiled leader from the planet Smogo. When the Empire took complete control of the planet, I was forced to flee with my family.

We did not have time to take our money and the treasure of Smogo out with us. However, secret operatives on the planet have kept it safe from Imperial eyes.

As the treasure is being liquidated and moved off of Smogo, we need people to help us launder the money. If you would help us out, that would be great. You pay a one time transaction fee of $4000 and we will wire you ten million credits. You get to keep one million for your troubles.

Please send all your personal information to unfufu704@holo.net. We will arrange a meeting on an outer rim world and ...ak...chk...can't....breathe....silf....dXP

Dear Poleposition,

I have been obsessed with the desire to strike Obi-wan down ever since he left me mutilated and burning alive on the shores of Mustafar.

Am I satisfied? You bet I am. You should have seen that little smirk drop off his face right before he vanished.

Trust me, his light has now gone out from this universe.

Lord Vader,

I have been reading your blog and I must say, it is a very enlightening and entertaining. I would like to thank you on behalf of all loyal citizens of the Imperium for this "look behind the ventilator."

While I certainly accept your explanations for the extraordinary run of bad luck that has allowed the terrorist rebels to elude capture and continue to wreak havoc with the Imperial order, I would be remiss as a citizen if I did not share with you a disturbing observation of mine. While no one would question your ruthlessness and effort, your pages are lacking in a certain... joie de evil, if you will. I cannot escape the conclusion that you are, in many ways, merely going through the motions. It's as if, and please forgive me for saying so, the goodness has not been driven from you fully.

I wish I had advice on this, but I have complete faith that you will resolve this crisis with your characteristic decisiveness.

Your humble servent,

Lord Vader:

I can't help thinking that recent defeats of the Empire are partially due to your excessive use of an Imperial Army and Navy, but no Imperial Space Marines.

May I humbly suggest that two Battalions of Imperial Marines be raised consisting of
one Colonel, 2 Lt. Colonels, 2 Majors, and Officers
as usual in other regiments, that they consist of an equal number
of privates with other Battalions, that particular care be taken
that no person be appointed to Officer or enlisted in said Battalions,
but such as are good spacemen, or so acquainted with spacetime
affairs as to be able to serve to advantage by space.

Lord Vader,

We've completed that analysis of trajectories on the fleeing Rebel ships you askedfor. They appear to be massing on what our my staff believes to be an arbitrary rendezvous point just above the Galactic plane. Best estimates say that if we leave now we could arrive a few hours after the last fleeing rebel.

(We also saw one of their smaller ships (X-Wing class) heading off towards the Dagobah system, a curiosity in that our recently launched probe droid reported as being barron with only the most primitive live forms. We couldn't make anything of it, but thought you might.)

We will keep you posted if anything new comes up.

My Lord,

It was with great pleasure that I was notified of your blog in a conversation I had this morning with a fellow covert operative via secure holo-net.

As I go about my sometimes-exhausting daily tasks of supressing pro-rebellion rhetoric, extracting useful information from those spineless Bothans, and furthering your glorious New Order, I sometimes find myself wondering, "Is it really worth it?" Please do not think for one moment that I'm harboring treasonous thoughts; I merely question whether my efforts really make much of a difference, big picture-wise.

Now that I have had a chance to finally get a look at the man behind the breath screen, so to speak, my outlook has improved immeasurably. Please, my Lord, if you can, continue sharing your daily life with us so that we may have a focal point upon which we can dedicate our energies.

I remain, my Lord,
Your Servant

P.S. When you get a free moment, can you possibly teleport me off this rock? I was thinking someplace a bit more...humid. I understand there are planets out there that actually lack a Jawa population. I would love to see that first-hand.

Cheers!

I hate to say it, but I've always though that Qui-gon was twice, no TEN TIMES the Jedi that Obi-wan was. He had no problem listening to and trusting the Force when even the elder Jedi couldn't make it out.

Gah. Now that I've revealed a hint of my Star Wars geekiness, O Lord Vadar, I must say that this post is damn near poetic. Who knew an honest-to-the-Force heart beat beneath all that synthetica?

Lord Vader,

I would like to know the real reason for the attack on the planet Hoth.

Hoth is listed as a frozen snowball
having no strategic or tactical value at all.

This being the "official" story, begs the question:

Why would the Terrorists AKA "Rebels" set up shop on a planet with no natural resources, and no ability to grow food?

The logistical demands of supplying a rebel army on such a harsh place are simply mindboggling.

In addition, why did you feel the need for a ground assault upon Hoth? Why not a Blockade to starve them into submission?

There are only two conclusions I can come to either:

1. Hoth has been misreported, and does indeed contain an important natural resource, which both the Rebels and the Empire wish to control.

OR
2. Your general staff needs to be replaced with a room full of drunken jawas.

Dear Load Vader,

I represent the official publisher of the Empire, EmpireReading. (Disclosure: we are a subsidiary of EmpireWorld wholly owned by Dauntis Palpatine LLC). Our past publishings included Palpatine: "Savior of the Republic", "Palpatine: Rise to Power", "Palpatine: Gentle but Firm", "Palpatine: The Jedi Purge is Just", "Palpatine: Humanitarian", "Palpatine: Jedi Traitor, Why we needed Order 66", and of course the all time best seller "Palpatine's first 100 years in holos". We also have published many articles in EmpireToday including the often referenced: "Most Humans are Created Equal, Aliens are not", "Aliens Need Not Apply, How Humans will bring prosperity to the Empire", "Why disgusting aliens should sit at the back of the transport", "The Useless Senate, why we no longer needed it", "We can live without freedom because we are safe", and my favorite "Why Alderaan had it coming".

We are here to offer you a chance to publish your memoirs. Think "Sex in the CityWide Coruscant" by Candy Bendover about those 4 Twi'lek whores. We would also like to consider purchasing the movie and merchandise rights to your memoirs. Our working title is "The Empire Strikes Back at the Rebel Scum". Although some of our focus groups want us to shorten the title. We already have a mockup for a marketing campaign complete with figurines, linens, and our soon to be patented toilet paper "Rebel Scum Wiper".

We need more positive publishing for the human kids of the Empire. I think your book has that potential. As the previously peacenik liberal "activist" from Alderaan IdaTalkTooMuch parroted Supreme Emperor Palpatine, "The Empire is just. We must squash the rebellion. We will wipe them out. All of them." a few days before her planet was disintegrated. This publication will further that cause.

We look forward to the opportunity to work along the most prized apprentice to the Supreme Emperor.

Mr. Vader,

It has recently been brought to the attention of the Intergalactic Software Alliance (ISA) that your ship, Executor, is running on an illegal pirate copy of StarDestroyerOS XP. Furthermore, evidence gathered by the spatial cleanup crews that collected the remnants of the detonated DeathStar v0.3a and DeathStar 0.73a prototype units suggests that more destroyers within your fleet may in fact be running illicit copies of StarDestroyerOS XP.

Our ship will be docking with Executor tomorrow at 04:00 hours to begin a complete audit of your systems to ensure licensing compliance. As part of this process, we will also be scanning your Imperial databases to ensure licensing compliance for the remaining ships in your fleet.

Please be aware that the United Galaxies Intellectual Property Act provides for severe penalties for each violation of the Proper Software Licensing clause subsection B, up to and including public humiliation and deactivation of any bionic body parts.

In addition to working for a large and public university located on the planet earth, I am also a representative of the IIRS (that's intergalactic internal revenue service). It was recently brought to our attention that you neglected to disclose the full expenses for the construction of your primary residence, the "Deathstar." If a full report is not made within 72 earth hours, or an extension not filed for within the next 48 hours (for which a penalty will be assessed) than the IIRS will not only be forced to send an audit, but also be forced to contact the necessary authorities. As a final measure, we very well may be forced to charge you with Intergalactic Tax Fraud. As you know, we highly respect your posision as the "Lord of the Sith" but we have before assessed penalties to the "Lord of the Dance" and the "Lord of the Flies." so do not think that your priviledged status protects you.

Dear Lord Vader,

Awsome blog! I just stumbeled on it today, and I gotta say, very entertaining to read. It's cool knowing whats going on inside your head.

Anyway, I gotta ask you this, since I think any reporter who asks is probably going to get something that rhymes with achia crushed if he asks you in person.

A few hours ago, some of my friends told me of some leaked intelegence reports from the Hoth raid. These reports are said to include pictures from the memory core of a medical bot working in the Rebel clinic. I haven't seen the pictures, and Google search revealed nothing thanks to the civilian filters, but apparently, they are pictures of Princess Leia, Rebel Ho-Bag supreme, giving tounge service to a recovering Luke Skywalker.

I kinda figured there was something going on between those two from when the rebels broadcasted scenes from the Death Star attack and the insuing medal ceremony.

So, good news, your boy is getting some play. Bad news, its with one of the biggest Rebel sluts there is.

Good luck hunting rebels!
Kohrak

P.S. The more I think about it, the more the whole Luke-Leia thing seems wrong to me. Can't put my finger on why though...

Lord Vader
How do you know that Qui-Gon spoke to you? I mean maybe the Emperor spoke to you after noticing Obi-Wan through your eyes or maybe you just wanted to kill Obi-Wan?

Sincerely

My lord, why do you think Qui-Gon persuaded you to kill Kenobi?

Oh, and if m'lord doesn't mind me asking...

What were the circumstances of young Luke's birth...? One of those things that have always mystified me...

Again, I mean no offense...

Dear Mr. Vader,

The twisted priorities of your Administration are reflected in your endless public health cuts, mandatory sterilization plans, budget shortfalls, incessant taxation without representation and position on enviromental destruction. The bloated, wasteful, redundant military expenditures, including the boondoggle unworkable "Death Star Program" at over 9 billion imperial dollars last year, come at the expense of programs that save the lives and health of the Empires' people here at home.

Where will you begin to make up for the malpractice of your administration?

Sincerely,
Darth Nader

Are you still on for golf on Sunday?

Lord Vader,

Riiiissseee up to your evil oppressor and explain to him that his lack of sensitivity is causing you to needlessly force choke all kinds of people, from your wife right on down to Admiral Piett. Speaking of Piett, how come no letter to his family?

My Lord, you live.

The worst part is Obi-Wan passed on his pansy ways to Luke.

It must be depressing to know that even though you are the greatest jedi ever, genetics couldn't save your son from becoming a pansy tree hugging rock floater.

You know, I used to be a handmaid on Naboo. That was a really cool gig. Well, when we weren't dealing with the Gungans. It's hard to keep those handmaid costumes dry, you know.

Anyway, Padme Amidala was a great boss. But what do you know about her? She was one of those rinky-dink Senators that you and Palpatine love to hate. Poo to you.

To The Midget Inside R2-D2:

I am not a fag. I'm British.

You've always resented the fact that I can go up and down stairs.

You have never been able to deal with the fact that I am fluent in over six million forms of communication and they never installed a simple language pack for your ass.

Get over it.

Quit the "3PO's a homo" crap. It's old.

Don't even talk about the ride in the escape pod. You were crapping all over yourself. There was oil and antifreeze shooting everywhere and I was like "Settle down, Beavis."

The gloves are off and everyone should really know you were wasted when the princess' cruiser was caught. You couldn't steer straight and you were all over the place. I was trying to follow you when the troopers busted through but you couldn't keep it on a straight line. Not only was I dodging blasters but I was trying not to get run over by your three legged drunk-self.

You know it, I know it, and know the whole world knows it. You pull to the right when your drunk. 2 drinks and you need an alignment.

You hit the wall after the princess gave you the plans and if it weren't for some fancy editing, everyone in the universe would realize how much you really drink.

Seriously, you're the only friggin droid I've ever heard scream. Every time I turn around you're getting shocked or blasted and then there it is "WOAAAOOOOA".

Suck it up.

I've had my arm ripped off by Tuskan Raiders and at Lando's place I was blasted into nothing but a torso. Before that my damn head was ripped off. Did you ever hear me scream?

Never. Sure maybe an "Oh dear" or an "Oh my" but never "WOAAOOOAAAOO".

Face it midget, you are classic Napoleonic. I'm taller. You hate me.

It really is just that simple.

This is how Imperial policy all begins...

Start with a cage containing five clones. In the cage, hang a beer on a string and put stairs under it. Before long, a clone will go to the stairs and start to climb towards the beer. As soon as he touches the stairs, spray all of the clones with cold water. After a while, another clone makes an attempt with the same result - all the clones are sprayed with cold water.

Continue until, when another clone tries to climb the stairs, the other clones try to prevent it.

Now, turn off the cold water.

Now, remove one clone from the cage and replace it with a new one. The new clone sees the beer and wants to climb the stairs. To his horror, all of the other clones attack him. After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs, he will be assaulted.

Next, remove another of the original five clones and replace it with a new one. The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous newcomer takes part in the punishment with enthusiasm.

Again, replace a third original clone with a new one. The new one makes it to the stairs and is attacked as well. Two of the four clones that beat him have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs, or why they are participating in the beating of the newest clone.

After replacing the fourth and fifth original clone, all the clones which have been sprayed with cold water have been replaced. Nevertheless, no clone ever again approaches the stairs. Why not?

"Because that's the way it's always been around here."

That's how Imperial policy begins...

Pity, my Lord Vader. That you think Obi-Wan so weak. It is you who are weak, monster. Your arrogance is your weakness.

I heard a nasty rumor that might damage your credibility and reputation as one of the baddest. It would be nice to get it out now, and have your official statement on it.

Did Alderaan really shoot first?

Dear Darth,

I am now more powerful than you can possibly imagine. And Luke's coming to kill you. I made sure he's on the path to become a Jedi.

Nyah nyah!

"one truly beautiful thing I have ever made"?

Some kind of dad you are! First of all you got to hit some of that sweet Padme. Aside from being hot you got the best of both worlds. She was young overall, yet still the older woman.

Oh yeah, and what about Leia? Some Jedi you are, you board her ship and you couldn't even detect her? Well done, father of the year. NOT!

I think this is really good writing and all but do you have any other styles? Can you write about reality for a second or two? I mean I love Vader too but I want to see you stretch your reality to it's limits with your words and not just with pulp fiction.

Keep up the awesome blog. I read it daily.

Oh, and Kenobi isn't all you make him out to be. There is good in him. We've all felt it, why can't you?

Oh, BTW, just cause you killed him... Well.. I'll let you find out. ;)
