Authors note:

All Star Wars characters and references in this story are the exclusive property of Lucasfilm and George Lucas himself. Any Street Fighter references are the exclusive property of Capcom and any Fatal Fury references are the exclusive property of SNK. I do not own them, I am just borrowing them for a little while so please don't sue.

Due to a lack of official information, the military rank structure I used for this story is a hybrid of the Rogue Squadron books and my own naval experience.

While I tried to stay within the established timeline for this fiction it will go into AU or Alternate Universe where the NJO books never happened.

Preface

Recording Starts

Who am I? Who I was is unimportant to my story if you will listen to it. Who I am now is what I would like to speak of. The path that I have traveled is mostly one of self-discovery. On my path I found beauty, danger, high points and low ones. Most of all, I found choices. So many, many choices. To quote an old friend, "Twilight is upon me and soon, night must fall. That is the way of things, the way of the Force."

I intentionally choose these words because they fit my situation exactly. Although I was born on Earth, I will not die there. My chapter is ending but someday my son will add his and his sons and daughters not yet born yet will add theirs.

That is the way of things, the way of the Force.
