- A man whose
two biggest flaws were “clenched-jaw insistence on absolute correctness” and
inability to open about his feelings.- A man, who,
when being asked if he believes that Anakin Skywalker is the Chosen One, did
not admit he does. Only to reveal in the final duel on Mustafar that all this
time he was the greatest believer in Anakin and the prophecy.- A man, who,
when being warned by Yoda about the danger of attachment towards Anakin, did
not understand what the green Master was talking about. Only to finally realize
and admit to himself on Mustafar that “the man he faced was everything Obi-Wan
had devoted his life to destroying: Murderer. Traitor. Fallen Jedi. Lord of the
Sith. And here, and now, despite it all …Obi-Wan still loved him.”- A man who
knew about Anakin and Padme’s relationship and kept their secret for years.
Only to confess to Padme in the last day prior Anakin’s turn to the Dark Side
that all this time he knew.- A man who
spent twenty years in exile on Tatooine regretting the words he never said to
Anakin.
