Description
'Anakin sometimes thinks of the dread that eats at his heart as a dragon. Children on Tatooine tell each other of the dragons that live inside suns...But Anakin's fear is another kind of dragon. A cold kind. A dead kind.
Not nearly dead enough.
...Anakin couldn't even remember what the mission might have been, but he'd never forgotten that dead star.
"Stars can die-?"
"It is the way of the universe." Obi-Wan had told him. "Everything dies. Even stars burn out."
That is the kind of fear that lives inside Anakin Skywalker; the dragon of that dead star. It is an ancient, cold dead voice within his heart that whispers all things die...
Within him, the dragon's cold whisper chewed at his strength. "All things die, Anakin Skywalker. Even stars burn out."

The dark is generous. It is patient. And it always wins. Yet within it lies a weakness. One candle is enough to block it out. Love is more than a candle. Love can ignite the stars.
