The Balance

Co-authored: with Lady Selinthia Avenchesca

Summary: At the age of 53, Jedi Master Luke Skywalker vanishes without a trace. Twenty years later, he returns the master of an Order unlike either the Jedi or the Sith.

Note: This story was written for Eddie Powel as his prize for winning the fan fiction contest Selinthia and I held during the summer of 1999. The results of the contest can be found under the mailing list contest section of this site. While this story is a part in the ongoing series which can be found at Eddie's site it is not necessary to have read the other fics in the series to follow this one.

Writing Style: In this story, Selinthia and I decided to do something different. All the sections, with the exception of the prologue, are written in a first person point of view, namely Luke's. Please let me know at valeriev84@hotmail.com what you think of this.

Sections: I decided to place the different sections of this story on different pages because part II is pretty long and so this will ease loading time for people without highspeed internet access. The other parts and the prologue, however, are short.

Prologue

Part I: "The Stranger"

Part II: "The Tale"

Part III: "The Reaction"
