hey everyone how's it going today so do you remember in Clone Wars season seven
when we got that glimpse of Obi one knowing about Anakin and Padme well
there was a time which is now legends in labyrinth of evil by James Luciano where
obi-wan actually confronted Anakin about his feelings for Padme and speaks of his
destiny so before we get to that let me ask you this do you believe that if
Padme had never existed or she and Anakin never met that there wouldn't
have been a Darth Vader was it more Padme or joining the light side order at
an older age which always kept Anakin with one foot out the door in regards to
the Jedi or was it both war if there had been no Padme that change alone would
have allowed Anakin to fully embrace the Jedi and become their greatest champion
possibly I can ask this in another way too if Anakin never join the Jedi could
he have fulfilled his destiny as the chosen one and if he couldn't what would
become of the galaxy and the force now we know the what if that Anakin gave
himself in a previous video that I made from this book labyrinth of evil where
Anakin goes through the story in his head if he never became a Jedi and you
can see that video for yourself but essentially he would have just become a
famous pilot now regardless of where those scenarios could have led to good
or not in actuality Anakin try to live in two clashing world simultaneously one
filled with love and passion with Padme in the real world and another more
clerical yet fantastical existence full of prophecy and destiny with the Jedi
ultimately one had to give way to the other and that as we know didn't end
well for neither Anakin nor Padme or the Jedi the reason I'm bringing this up is
that I'm going to share this moment from James Luciano's labyrinth of evil with
you guys today now remember how quickly it took obi-wan to guess that Padme was
pregnant with Anakin's child in Episode three well it's clear that he already
suspected certain barriers had been crossed between the two of them and
wasn't as blind to their relationship as he let on as we see more evidence of
that here in the passage I'm going to read for you the legends book takes
place right before the start of episode 3 Revenge of the Sith and at this
particular juncture Anakin and obi-wan are debating with each other about
whether to pursue Count Dooku to another planet as the High Council wants them to
or instead traveled to coarsened and
continue their search for Darth Sidious Anakin wants to return to coarsened
obi-wan suspects there are other reasons than Sidious which motivates Anakin's
desire to return to the Republic capital obi-wan fell silent as if struck by a
sudden suspicion Anakin is it Padme Anakin rolled his eyes here you go again
well is it anakin compressed his lips then said I won't lie to you and say
that I don't miss her oh we went round sympathetically you can't afford to miss
her in that way and exactly why is that Master because you cannot be married to
both who said anything about marriage she's a friend
I miss her as a friend you would forgo your destiny for Padme Anakin brow
beetle din anger I never claimed to be the chosen one
that was quite on even the council doesn't believe it anymore so why should
you because I think you believe it everyone said calmly I think you know in
your heart that you're meant for something extraordinary and you master
what does your heart tell you you're meant for infinite sadness everyone said
even while smiling and it can regarded him if you believe in destiny then
everything we do becomes part of that destiny you may be right I don't have
the answer I wish I did then where does that leave us
obi-wan rested his hands on Anakin's shoulders speak with poverty maybe he'll
see something in this that I've missed now I wish Anakin here had told him the
truth about Padme if only one knew the truth the whole
truth and not just a suspicion while he would be disapproving Anakin would have
come to him about his visions of Padme death
maybe obi-wan could have reached him before he gave in to Sidious is
imaginations and I definitely believe ahsoka could have if she had reached
Anakin but we all know what season 7 that she wasn't able to get a hold of
him before he turned you think obi-wan would have kept Anakin's marriage a
secret or turned him in to the council and what did you think he said when he
saw the infinite sadness for his own future which is very true I guess Obi
once sensed the truth of it in the force for he spends the rest of his days in
mourning about what happened to Anakin and the Jedi as he looked over Luke now
I made sure to leave in that last part where obi-wan sends and it can write
into the dragon's lair with Palpatine he was starting to reach Anakin and maybe
even get his former apprentice to truly open up but instead his advice bring
Skywalker even more under cities his influence or we once council is also
representative of the Jedi as a whole they guide Anakin
but ultimately keep sending him into city as his waiting hands it really
makes me wonder what would have happened if qui-gon was still alive and didn't
die from Darth Maul I think everything would have been changed and especially
as Dave Filoni says he was the father that Anakin always needed hope you
enjoyed this video I'll see you guys the next one until then remember the force
will be with you always
