Darth Vader was a badass. This is a story about his son Luke Skywalker following in his father's footsteps. Mainly, this is a story about Luke going home to Tatooine and showing the roving bands of bikers and criminal gangs what happens when you mess with Darth Vader's son's childhood home. And the coinsequences ot his actions. When Luke Skywalker returns to Tatooine to visit his dead friend Biggs' mother, he sees the chaos left behind by the fall of the Empire and decides to do something about it, Darth Vader style. Realising that the New Republic is rotting from the inside, Luke sets out not to do what his father did, try to bring order to the galaxy. But to try and make things a bit better. As Luke wrestles with the chaos his destruction of the Death Star has caused. At the same time, trying to decide what to do about the stormtroopers who killed his uncle and his new place in the galaxy. Leia has nightmares about her son Ben and sends Luke to kill the knights of Ren. The galaxy trembles as Luke and Leia rise to power. Comments welcome. For example, Luke should claim the dark saber and rule the Mandalorians. Image is taken from a stock picture on Pixabay, which I added text to.
