Growing up on the desert planet Tatooine with my aunt and uncle, Owen and Beru Lars, was pretty simple. I, Luke, spent my days helping with the moisture farm, but honestly, I always dreamed of escaping and becoming a pilot. Little did I know, my life was about to change completely! I had no idea I was actually the son of Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala, or that I even had a twin sister, Leia. Thankfully, Obi-Wan Kenobi was secretly watching over me, keeping a special lightsaber safe – my father’s, as it turned out – until the time was right. Looking back, that peaceful upbringing was the perfect setup for discovering my connection to the Jedi and learning about the dramatic events that brought down the Republic, stories I’d only heard whispers of before.
