[After the moogle has shown Luke around, he's taken a few minutes before turning the communicator on. The Darkness had done something to the timelines of other worlds, apparently. It was a great temptation for Luke to just call out for his father and see when he had come from. Maybe it was early enough, maybe he could save him. Really save him. But what would the far-reaching consequences of that action be? Would it only make things worse somehow?]

My name is Luke. I am a Jedi Knight with the Alliance. If anyone else survived the destruction of the forest moon, please check in with me.

[He pauses.

Father... Obi-wan...

Do either of them hear? Do either of them even know him?]

And if anyone can tell me anything more about the Darkness and this place, I would appreciate it.

Anakin Skywalker... is Darth Vader. To keep us safe from him and from his Master, my sister and I were hidden. I think... he must have believed that whatever happened to my mother happened to me, as well. He didn't know she was pregnant with twins.

[He can see that she's bothered by the question and how she keeps starting and stopping. And when she looks away, he gets the feeling she might know something more than what she's telling him.] You have some idea, don't you?

That's not true. It can't be true. Anakin isn't that kind of person. He wouldn't hurt other people. He wouldn't fall to the Dark Side. Not Anakin.

[She's clearly defensive, and she simply cannot believe it. Not Anakin.]

I have a feeling, but, logically, it's not possible.

I don't know what happened to him, but if it's to be changed, we can't shy away from it. That's the only way to stop it from happening.

[He keeps his voice soft and gentle. He had a similar reaction to finding out his father was that monster.]

My father is a good man. Knowing I was alive created a conflict within him. He turned back from the Dark Side and saved my life in doing so.

[He nods.] Tell me.

Of course he's a good man. That's why he can't be... that person. He just can't.

[And then the thought strikes, and she looks at him desperately.] Please, don't tell him. Knowing he might do those things... [How would he react?] He mustn't know.

[And then she shakes her head.] I... can't. It wouldn't be fair to you to get your hopes up when it might not be true.

I haven't. [But he's still going to find some way to keep it from happening.]

Even if it's not who you're thinking of, it would give me a starting point. Please?

Keep it that way. If he has to be told, I'd like to be there.

[She can't guarantee how he'll react, so it's best if she's there to keep him... grounded.

After a long moment she sighs and relents. He's just a stubborn as Anakin, too. ~~Just as stubborn as she is, really.~~]

Me. [She purses her lips for a moment before she goes on.] You have to understand. I care about Anakin very much, but our lives are both set on separate paths. He's a Jedi... I want more for him.

[He nods. He knows Anakin has to be told eventually. And he'll make certain she's there for it.]

I see. I wondered... if you were related to her somehow. My sister looks a lot like you. [He smiles a little.] Paths change. You might not realize it until you've come too far to turn back, but they do it. And it's not always for the worse.

Your sister? [So there were two? And the promise of a little girl in her future, like Pooja and Ryoo...]

...Perhaps they do. [She's already aware. Spending so much time with Anakin, and then being torn apart from him for a month had certainly made her start to change her mind.] I need time to speak to Anakin, but then I'd like to meet you...if you're willing.

Yes. We're twins. [It makes him smile a little to think of her, even if she wasn't here.]

Of course. Where can I meet you?
