    Summary

    This is 33 random but essentially chronological moments from the life of Yoda, one of the most renowned Jedi Masters in recorded/preserved galactic history (legendary for his wisdom, mastery of the Force, and skill in lightsaber combat, among other talents), who served on the Jedi High Council for roughly the last five centuries of the Galactic Republic’s duration and reigned as the Jedi Order’s Grand Master for over a century preceding the Clone Wars; yet, who, in the end, also failed the Order so completely that he had to be purged of his fear publicly and replaced by a bonded duo as Grand Masters when the Order underwent its rebirth as the New Jedi Bendu Order. There is an actual story here – one small thread among the vast woven tapestry of life that is the living history of the galaxy, stretched out and twisted, knotted into the whole, curled down among the roots of time, connecting various moments together – but one must read between the lines to capture it. It is not precisely the truth, for the subtle story of these moments is sketched out here in words, and, in the sin of writing down a life, it inevitably changes the shape of things. But it is nevertheless a form of truth. (From a certain point of view . . . )

    Summary

    This is one hundred and one random (but essentially chronological, if with some occasional overlap and a few memories deliberately placed out of order, due to their increased significance in light of certain other, later occurrences) moments from the life and afterlife of Jedi Knight and Master Qui-Gon Jinn, who screws up spectacularly in a certain melting pit on Naboo near the end of this piece and ends up paying for it (along with certain other mistakes and outright crimes he’s committed over the years) in the years to follow, as he struggles to transition from a lowly Force ghost to an actual Force spirit. There is a story here – one small thread among the vast woven tapestry of life that is the living history of the galaxy, stretched out and twisted, knotted into the whole, curled down among the roots of time, connecting various moments together – but one must read ever so slightly between the lines to capture it. It is not precisely the truth, for the subtle story of these moments is sketched out here in words, and, in the sin of writing down a life, it inevitably changes the shape of things. But it is nevertheless a form of truth. (From a certain point of view . . . )

    Summary

    A three-legged stool, even if the legs are incongruent and the seat is ugly, even if the ground on which it sets is uneven, is generally stable.

    Basically: three men in a complicated triangle spanning decades encompassing a war in which they are only sort of on the same side.

    Summary

    Training, once the highlight of Jaime's day, has become a dismal reminder of everything he can't do. He watches Loras Tyrell swing his sword so easily it's like an extension of his arm, and hates the lad. His own sword arm ends at the wrist now, and his efforts to learn to fight with his off-hand are too humiliating to share with the rest of the training yard. He goes there because he feels it's his responsibility as Lord Commander, especially now that there's no master-at-arms at the Red Keep, to keep the young knights from skewering themselves or each other, but every day he paces the yard like a caged lion, growing ever more frustrated, until he can finally leave.

    Greed lifts one hand, and then the reaction starts: transmutation crackles over his skin, so raw and potent it makes Kimberly shiver, and Greed’s hand turns clawed, alien, carbon-rich black. Kimberly reaches out to touch it.
