Why this must be read:

Here's another great character vignette, this one consisting of a contrast between Vader and Luke.


He dreams of space. Sure, sometimes he dreams of a green, lush planet full of elaborately dressed people, but mostly, he dreams of space.

Space is always cold, and stark. There seems to be no color there, with everything being either black, white, or gray. The world is a little fuzzed out and gray anyway, but even beyond that, everything is monochromatic. Even the soldiers on the -his?- ship are monocromatic.

He always has a nagging feeling of power in these dreams, even as is tempered by the fact that when he tries to see himself, all he sees is blackness. Black gloves, black armor, black cape. He wonders when he started dressing like that, and when he got so tall.

The insistent whooshing sound in the background is taken for granted. That's what space sounds like.
