Some days, he can't sleep. On those days, he leaves his bunk and roams the ship. He pauses by the viewports and stares at the stars and feels lonely and frightened.
The galaxy's most powerful Sith lord is his father, the entire Imperial Navy is searching for him, and what can he do? He's only one person. What can he possibly do against a force that strong?
He leans his forehead against the cold transparisteel and closes his eyes.
Every day, he withdraws to his quarters and takes time to reflect. He stands at the viewport and stares at the stars and feels lonely and frustrated.
He is the galaxy's most powerful Sith lord, he has set the entire Imperial Navy after his son, and what good has it done? Luke is only one person. How can he possibly find one person in a galaxy this big?
He touches his gloved hand to the cold transparisteel and bows his head.
