Hi Worshipfulness
Luke was released from medical ward. Seems okay, except his face is still somewhat
mashed up. And no detergent earthly or unearthly can seem to take the tauntaun smell
out of his clothes.
A group of your loyal devotees is planning to have an outing this afternoon at 1400, to
admire different shades of white and make some snow sculptures. Thought you'd like to
join.
Your Most Humble and Devoted Servant.

Madame,
You needn't worry about Leia. I saw the Millennium Falcon make it safely away from
the hangar caves, and I know Captain Solo will be looking after Leia well. Expect
them to rejoin you soon, if they haven't already.
I'm also letting you know that I won't be joining the Alliance forces at the meeting
point. A Jedi mission has come up, which I must undertake immediately. I have no
idea how long it will take; but I'll try to keep in touch and be with you for anything
major.
Luke Skywalker

Vader,
True law and order can only originate from within an individual; it must be based
on his voluntary decision to act in a way that will not harm his neighbour; or else
it turns into oppression.
Honestly, stop pestering me about meeting. I suppose it comes as no surprise
that I don't trust you. You have too many advantages over me, and no scruples at
all. So you needn't bother repeating it.
I will not be answering your messages very regularly for a while; just warning you
cause I don't want any death threats to my friends.
Luke Skywalker

REPORT No 7
V is clearly beside himself, acting erratically. Short bouts of meditation,
conflicting orders, no regular daily schedule. Fleet is terrified. Better rapport
with the new admiral, Piett - I suggest need to keep an eye on him.
To escape, the rebels used tactics that apparently are well known among smugglers
and small pirate groups. May I suggest the Navy's standard procedure be modified
to avoid such occurrences in the future.
V still in contact with the rebel.
Faithfully yours,
Mara Jade

Son,
Obi-Wan and Princess Organa have apparently filled your head with idealistic
foolishness. You only need to take a look at the minutes of the Old Republic
senate sessions during its later years (for example, the last two years under
Valorum's chancellorship) to see where your precious free will and voluntary
decisions lead. Do you honestly believe a hundred quardrillion beings can come
to some sort of workable agreement just based on their individual voluntary
actions?
Still, you have grown much wiser and stronger lately. Be careful, son.
Your father,
Darth Vader

Apprentice,
I have felt the Skywalker brat is growing stronger. Is he being trained? By whom?
Need I remind you, he must not become a Jedi. You must not allow his growth in
the Force to progress beyond the point where he cannot be turned.

Where the hell are you, son?
Whatever you are doing, stop this immediately.
