The Jedi spirits met in their own version of the council chambers. Obi Wan was furious.
"They say I just stood there and let Padme Amidala. There wasn't anything I could do. Even if she was treated by jedi health services she still would have died. "Obi Wan growled loudly
"It wasn't your fault. There is no cure for sadness. "Mace Windu replied
Qui Gon appeared in the council chambers. "You fools! This is the biggest failure in jedi history. Palpatine is laughing at us. How do yo8u think he was able to hide in plain sight without us noticing him? Because of Arrogance. You made attachment and love a disease the jedi needed to hide from. He needed love and attachment far more than any other jedi and you denied it to him. When his mother died you never comforted him about it. I yelled at him through the force and he ignored it. Obi Wan how could you not know he was married to Padme Amidala. The jedi were as evil as the sith. We were never meant to fight in a war. Yet you fought in the clone wars and fell to order 66. Yes, I fell to Darth Maul and that was due to outdated jedi beliefs. Obi Wan lost Satine because of the same outdated beliefs preventing him from married her which would have made him stronger. I warned you time and time again until I died that the jedi needed to evolve and you wouldn't listen. You wonder why the order fell? Anakin has special needs and you ignored him. You treated him like a slave. You created Darth Vader from your failure. Now they hate us all over the galaxy because of Princess Leia's article. Her mother could have brought an end to the empire much sooner then it happened if she lived. You wonder why I never wanted to serve on the council. "Qui Gon groaned
"Anakin got angry at the council when he was denied the rank of master. Yoda told him to sever his attachments, or they would turn him to the dark side. "Mace Windu said "Why didn't you tell him why he couldn't' be master instead just telling him no? That made him lose trust in you. He believed he was to be you slave forever and you didn't care. "Qui Gon groaned "He hadn't learned control. "Mace said "Why didn't you tell him that and you wanted him to spy on his friend Palpatine. How do you think he felt about that did you even care? "Qui Gon growled "None of you should have been allowed to become one with the force after what you did. "Qui Gon shouted "Wrong we were about love, attachments, and marriage. Failed Anakin because of it. "Yoda explained
"You want to make it up to him? Bring Padme Amidala Skywalker back! Apologizing to him won't work neither will giving him the rank master because it is a hollow victory to him. Him did get it when it mattered. "Qui gon explained
"The force is still out of balance and in pain. Defeating the sith was not enough. The jedi dragged it out of balance to the other extreme. You don't even know what bringing it into balance even means. "Qui Gon groaned
"There was nothing I could have done to save Padme while she lay dying. Do you think I don't feel bad that their children ended up orphans? Do you don't think I feel bad about leaving Anakin on Mustafar because of our beliefs that no one ever comes back from the dark side? Darth Sidious knew love was the key to defeating him. Why do you think he lied to Anakin and caused Padme's died. To destroy the love between them and he failed. That's what Anakin from being completely consumed by the dark side and I failed to see it. "Obi Wan sighed "Blinded by arrogance we were Obi Wan that's why we failed Anakin. "Yoda explained
"We caused the entire Skywalker family to suffer terrible pain. Luke followed in his father's path when he rushed from Dagobah to save his friends on Cloud City. His love for them saved him from falling to the dark side. Blinded from love we were because we like our padawans were taken from our families as infants. Preyed on our arrogance Palpatine dd. We should never have gotten involved in politics, war, and ignorance. Go to Naboo I will. Help Anakin heal his pain I will. "Yoda said
"We will too "The other jedi said as they left the council chambers.
