Who: Anakin Skywalker
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Paisley
When: Right meow
There are a lot of questions and interests about other worlds lately. I have one question that I'm interested in right now. [ Alright, Ankain you can do this. Forget about that scolding Obi-Wan voice in your head telling you that the future is always changing. ] Does your universe-- do you believe in fate?
[ Oh, great. It sounds like a load of bantha dung when he actually hears it out loud. Awkwardly: ]
Destiny.
[ That doesn't help, which is fine. It's fine. It goes against the Jedi teachings and feels wrong just saying it. Nevermind that things are different with each universe, so it can't be really applicable, right?
Whatever, roll with it.
He adds, without pause, a completely unnecessary definition. ]
That certain things needs to happen in the future.

It's not right. ]
How could you do it, for a measly treasure? You had family. A home.

For the jewels? No - I did it for my brothers, for my father. Oh, the jewels were the focus, the cause of all our grief, but I swore that oath for my family's sake. [ softly ] We all did, all of us, for father, for grandfather. But once sworn, such Oaths have power beyond mere words, and thrice we swore, and thrice were bound, and then there was no returning.
I was a fool, and the very actions I took were those of a fool and a madman.
But I took them for love, and that reason I will not regret, although I grieve for everything that came after.

I'm sorry. You should have broken your oaths.

But no, I am lying - unless my brothers also foreswore, I would not have done, for I could not leave them. So either way, I am damned.
