Come now. You speak with a former Sith. That conflict is not something that can stay hidden from him and he stops in his walk to observe the man. A hum, "the Jedi would tell you that what you feel now should be ignored. Do as you wish with your emotions, young Skywalker, but personally I find the concept preposterous. Your pain is valid."

Maul thought for quite some time about what to say and something, mm. Something begged him to speak more of this. It wasn't that he cared about Luke's internal conflict. Perhaps it was that he wanted to destroy the image of Darth Sidious so thoroughly, to ensure everyone knew exactly the type of man Sheev Palpatine was that he was willing to play nice every now and then.

He finally moves forward. "You cannot imagine the power that Darth Sidious possesses over a person. His observations are so astute that by the time you realize he is the enemy you've already become indentured to him. I know this well." He paused to look toward Luke. "Anakin had long been groomed to become that which he had become. This was his plan the very moment I had been sent to find him on Tatooine. He was but a child. Just like I had been."
