Ben's Gifts
This is kind of continuing DM's blog. I am fascinated by Owen, the droids, and Ben and the Truth..
What kind of movie would Star Wars, A New Hope have been if Ben had said.. "Well Luke, Your Father wanted you to have this when you were old enough.. BZZZZZZ! Cool, A lightsaber.. Yes, Luke, your father was holding that when I chopped his arms and legs off and left him on the side of a Lava river on Mustafar..before of course he force choked your mother and left her for dead..
I can see the rest of the conversation.. these droids also belong to you.. R2 and c3po given as gifts at a Secret Wedding Ceremony..and oh by the way that is your sister in the hologram and by the way has grown up with every luxury and privilege a young person can have..while you have toiled in poverty on the moisture farm..
Oh and right now your loving Uncle and Aunt are being mercilessly killed by a Garrison of Stormtroopers that were sent to kill you by your Father, who is now Darth Vader, a Sith Lord, who is torturing your sister at this moment..on the Death Star..did I mention Grandma Skywalker was killed by the Sandpeople..in this very hovel?
Would you like to join me on a trip to Alderaan just for s's and g's?
Strap on this Blast helmet while it shoots electric bolts at you..
Would you like some more blue milk to wash all that down?

OMG.. I think Luke would have used the lightsaber on himself..
What a nightmare!

Ben saved a life, the force, the jedi, a friend and vader.. with the veiled Sacred Skywalker Secret.. (the droids were pieces of the puzzle) not ready to be revealed..(Goldenrod could have blown the twins cover.. He knew to much) even keeping it from the Skywalkers themselves..
Ben used the old Force trick on C3po he couldn't translate R2 rebuttle of who really killed Anakin Skywalker?
What do you think?
