    Summary

    Vader first meets her wandering alone in the Imperial Palace, five years of age with dark brown hair curled up and trapped into buns at the back of her head. When she turns to look up at him and all his intimidating glory, he’s met with a face he thought he’d never see again.
    “Padmé?” He finds himself asking, kneeling and frozen in place.

    ...

    It was always Vader. Never the dragon, never the fire. All that is felt is the deep, dark, cold in his veins. He can almost see his death, in this feeling. He may not die alone, but he will be frozen over and forgotten. And that’s all he wants now- for the people of the galaxy to forget the pain that Vader, the Emperor’s Fist, brought to their world. To be forgiven despite it all.

    Summary

    Some would call it terrible timing. Some would call it providence. It really all depended on who you asked. And who was to say it couldn’t be both, from a certain point of view?

    A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away when Luke Skywalker is found by his father, the course of his life changes forever and so does the galaxy. Vader knows his son will never be safe as long as Palpatine sits on the throne, so thus it begins, and all is as the Force wills with a new adventure of forging alliances, a secret rebellion, and finding family in even the strangest of times. And it begins something like this, a story about a boy with stars in his eyes who was meant to kill his father, a girl with red gold hair who was meant to never know family or love, and a man in a mask who thought he had become the monster.

    Summary

    Anakin Skywalker lives in a galaxy FAR FAR AWAY . . .

    Luke Skywalker has resisted the darkness, and in return, saved his father from a deathly fate. Darth Vader has lived after his attack on the Emperor, and has found strength and hope from the attachments he was sworn never to have. Now, Vader lives on in the Rebellion, who has since attempted to eradicate the rest of the Empire, with the help of the newly turned Sith Lord. Although most are opposed to the Sith fighting on their side, they have since realized he is one of their greatest assets.

    Leia Organa struggles with the identity of her newfound father, though Darth Vader hopes she can reconcile with him. It is a battle that Leia hopes Vader will lose, but he is absolutely relentless.

    Anakin Skywalker rises up out of the ashes of the Empire, and promises a better life for his remaining family.

    Summary

    Naboo holds a special place of significance within the Empire. As the home planet of the Emperor, it's only natural that they would hold a military parade in his honor. As the capital city of Theed braces for the parade, the most elite of the Empire converge in one ticking time bomb that's ready to blow.

    Luke Lars enlisted in the Imperial Academy to follow in the footsteps of his father and see the stars. Things haven't quite gone according to plan, but it'll all have been worth it when he graduates at the top of his class—and with deployment so close, what does he have to fear? Everything changes when he and the other top ten pilots are shipped off to Theed to participate in the military parade last minute. He just needs to figure out who's being punished—Captain Bellac, who's always on the verge of a breakdown, him and his companions, who have been thrown in the middle of this entire mess, or Lord Vader.

    Summary

    “Today would have been her fiftieth lifeday.”

    Whether his master had told her directly, or her sleuthing and detective skills were even more formidable than previously imagined did not matter.

    All that mattered, in this moment, on the otherwise empty bridge, was that she knew about Padmé’s lifeday.

    Summary

    Long ago, in a galaxy far, far away...

     

    The Republic is in a desperate period as the forces of Jedi and Clones fight tirelessly against the Diseased. These waves of the undead seem unstoppable, and with each passing day, hope fades as the losses of lives mount. The world is growing increasingly unstable, and there appears to be no end to this brutal conflict. The once-great Republic now finds itself on the brink of collapse as the very foundations of its society are shaken to their core. But even in the face of such overwhelming adversity, some refuse to give up. Brave soldiers and Jedi continue to fight, risking everything to push back the tide of darkness that threatens to engulf them all. Once the Republic collapses, the glimmers of the Rebellion hope to continue the efforts to push back the Empire and restore peace across the planet.

    Summary

    Immediately following Order-66, the surviving almost-Jedi Knight Vaylin Tana is asked to take on the orphaned Skywalker Twins by Obi-Wan Kenobi and Bail Organa. Feeling a sense of devotion to not only Obi-Wan, but her closest friend (and unrequited love) Anakin, Vaylin does not hesitate and stops at nothing to keep Luke and Leia safe and hidden from the infant Galactic Empire, and the remnants of her long-dead love.

    Meanwhile, Darth Vader, the brand new Sith Lord Apprentice to Darth Sidious and the iron-fist of the Galactic Empire, stops at nothing to track down the Jedi that he couldn't bring himself to kill the fateful night he lost everything.

    Almost everything.
