Dedicated to Sir Alec Guinness, Godspeed good knight.
Space is cold. Much colder than home.
Well, it's a whole lot colder now.
Ben's gone. Dead. Murdered by Vader.
He shouldn't have died there. I should have helped him. I should have gone to him, protected him from that-
He wouldn't have let me. Even if I could have saved him, he'd have told me to run. Just like he did. Just after he...
But he's dead. He must have said it before Vader killed him. That's it. He must have wanted to warn me so Vader wouldn't get to us. And it cost him his life.
I cost him his life.
He still had so much to teach me. So much I wanted to learn from him. General Obi-Wan Kenobi, the last of the Jedi Knights.
I still remember that gleam in his eyes when he gave me my father's lightsaber. "An elegant weapon, from a more civilized time..." and I remember thinking no one ever says elegant anymore, especially on Tatooine. Elegant is one of those words senators and dignitaries use. Not some desert hermit. I meant to ask him about that.
It's too late now. He's gone, and I'm sitting here, flying through space in this pile of junk, numb from the cold and from the loss. I should have done something. I should have been there for him. I should have...
I'm here, Luke.
Ben?
I'll always be here for you.
Wait!
The Force will be with you. Always.
This is farewell, farewell but not forever
This is farewell until we're back together
This is so long for now, we'll meet again somehow,
Until the day we do,
I will be thinking of you.
We'll meet another day, you and I
Farewell is not goodbye
