Author's Notes

            Just to clear up any confusion that might occur:

**This story is set in a slightly alternative universe. In it, Jedi are allowed to marry and have children to insure the future of their legacy.

**The timeframe is also seven years after the The Phantom Menace, in which Qui-Gonn Jinn did not die during the Duel of Fates. Obi-Wan was able to save him, enabling Qui-Gon to take Anakin as his padawan learner.

**Their ages have also been slightly changed (younger by about seven years). I hope this doesn't offend anyone as I'm just taking a little "creative liberty."

If anyting else is confusing, I'll try to address it when the matter comes up. Thank you!
