Mon,
I talked to Luke. He is slowly getting better, although still somewhat shaken from
his ordeal. I suppose a brush with death does that to one. He still hasn't told me
everything that happened between himself and the Dark Lord in Cloud City, but he
keeps saying he did not want to become another Vader. I can only guess that otherwise
Vader would have caught him and forced him into darkside training, so he chose to
jump. From this alone, it is clear, in my opinion, that he has not betrayed us. His
nightmares have mostly ceased, and he has become quite used to his new hand, so I
expect he will rejoin our ranks soon.

To Her Highness
Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan
Your Highness,
I have been informed that you are trying to locate one Boba Fett, a bounty hunter
who is in possession of something precious to you. My men may have some
information concerning his current whereabouts where, I have been told, he will
remain for some time.
As an ardent admirer of your brilliance and beauty, I would be delighted to share
this information with you, if we can come to an agreement. Therefore, I am proposing
to discuss this, and topics more enjoyable, with you in the Menarai on fifthday,
2100 hours.
Until that happy hour, I remain
Yours truly,
Xizor

My Master,
Yesterday, upon returning to my quarters aboard the Executor, I found an intruder
armed with a blaster and a lightsabre, copying my data files on a holocrystal. I
dispatched him immediately; upon further examination the individual turned out
to be one of your operatives, Mara Jade.
I assure you, Master, I had no intention to counteract any mission or task ordered
by yourself; had I been informed that you require some of the information in my
possession, I would have given it willingly. I shall send you the datacrystal with
Jade's copied files and shall accept any punishment you deem appropriate for
disrupting your plans.
Yours faithfully,
your apprentice
Darth Vader

Love,
Have you visited the Endor Forestscape holiday resort lately? Rumours say there
are interesting new developments for the benefit of vacationeers, one of them being
a space station offering never-before-seen laser heat treatment not unlike the late
artificial moon circling Yavin.
This is serious, love. I'll make some inquiries about prices and available rooms.
Concerned about your health,
Borsk

Son,
I can feel you are doing better now. You should have listened to me when I first
said we need to talk. Hopefully you have learned your lesson. Take this as a warning:
I do not wish to see you disfigured like I am, but I would rather have you hurt but
alive, than dead because of your foolish persistence.
However, I am wiser now, too. I can see you are not someone who yields when
driven into a corner. Cloud City was an experience I really do not care to repeat. But
it is still true that a son's place should be with his parents. If I ever had a father, I
would be by his side. When I was young, I met someone who was like a father to me.
He taught and supported me, and most of all, never lied to me. He was there in my
darkest moments, in the way no one else was. I am still by his side.
I realize our relationship is different; it only started when you were almost an adult.
But Luke, there is still so much I could teach you. I know the Jedi side, as I was one
once, but I also know the Sith side; you could have both. Imagine how powerful you
could be - you would be able to help shape the galaxy just the way you think right.
Your father,
Darth Vader

Go to Tatooine, find Skywalker, and keep an eye on both Jabba's and the lizard's
assassins. If Luke is not on Tatooine, contact me immediately. Transport: an
independent pilot will contact you shortly. If you fail, you will never need to
worry about your tobacco allowance: your smoking organs will be quite
inoperative.
