Years after Jordan had abandoned him and his mother, Han was with his brother-in-law and best friend, Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, in the rebuilt Jedi Temple on Coruscant.

"Hey, Han, do you remember anything about your father?"

The ex-smuggler burned with anger and bitterness at the mention of his father.

"Yeah, I remember. He abandoned us when I was ten."

Luke looked at his friend.

"Why?"

"I don't know. I never found out."

The young man shook his head sadly.

"What was his name?"

"Jordan Drake. I'm pretty sure he fought in the Clones Wars, because he used to tell me stories about some of the battles of the Clone Wars."

Luke thought for a moment.

"Why don't we seek if we can find him in the Archives?"

"Sure. Why not? Maybe I can finally figure out why he left."

The two went to the Archives but couldn't find any record of a Jordan Drake.

"When did he disappear?"

"Around the time the Clone Wars ended."

Luke looked up the deaths and disappearances from 19 BBY and went through the holograms of the men. It went on for a while, and then, Han suddenly jumped out of his chair.

"Go back one!"

Luke went back a hologram.

"That's him! I'm sure of it! I'd know him anywhere!"

The Master looked at the hologram paled.

"Luke? Luke, are you okay?"

"Han, do you know who that is?"

The smuggler shook his head.

"Han, that's Count Tyln Dooku, former Jedi Master, leader of the Separatists! He's the guy who started the Clone Wars!"

Han turned even paler than Luke and slumped back into his chair.

"What happened to him?" he asked in a strained voice.

Luke checked the information.

"He was killed in the Battle of Coruscant when Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker rescued the captured Chancellor Palpatine," he read aloud.

He looked at his friend to see his face buried in his hands.

"You okay?"

The ex-smuggler looked at him.

"No, I'm not okay! I just found out that my father was one of the worst villians in history!"

********

Leia Solo, Han's wife and Luke's twin sister, went over to her husband as he sat on the edge of their bed.

"Han, what's wrong?"

"I learned the truth about my father today, and I wish I never had."

She put her hand on his shoulder.

"Why is that?"

He looked at her with sad eyes.

"My father was Count Dooku."

Leia stared at him in shock, having read the file on the infamous Count of Serenno.

"Count Dooku?"

He nodded.

"Yeah."
