Author's Note:  I maintain that the Emperor is allowed to make equine metaphors, as equestrian statues in Theed tell us there were once horses on Naboo. Thank you to zigsternenstaub for giving me a lot of help with this story and lending me Vader expertise. This chapter brings us quite close to the central themes of this tale. I did write out the scene with Vader but decided it distracted too much from the central story line, so Vader is going to get his limelight back on Coruscant. I'm so sorry, luminations, here's another long story you have to find time to comment on! ;)
