"I feel honour-bound to stand up for the Jedi, but the truth is, I don't know enough about them or their ways." He looks down at the beach and pictures a different shore - other plants, other planets. "Before my arrival here, I met two Jedi. Kenobi for a couple days, and Yoda for a few months, and beyond that, it was Vader, Sidious, and mad cloned Jedi that had fallen far."

And Mara, but her secrets are her own.

"I've searched and found a handful of holocrons, but that's it. I didn't even know what a Jedi was when I found Obi-Wan. I can't imagine what the plan was sending me against Sidious. They couldn't have believed that I could've fought him alone and won. I didn't." Luke knows that all he did was buy time and trust that he could stall long enough for Anakin to return.

It was not a good plan.
