<blockquote>In the chaos of conflict as a Republic crumbles into an Empire, two babies are smuggled to safety to keep them safe from a Sith Emperor's attention. It will not be enough. Their lives take very different paths, one raised as the Alliance's New Hope, the other as the Empire's Son.</blockquote>
➤ ft. Luke as raised by Palpatine and Leia as raised by Obi-Wan. Mostly Han pov. This fic is complete.
➤ The sequel, Empire's Son II, is found here: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11540131/1/Empire-s-Son-II
➤ Read sequel through ch 10. (Since completed & I need to reread & finish.)
➤ The first fic was a lot about Luke but the character with the growth/change arc that actually reached a conclusion was Han.
➤ The sequel is clearly setting itself up to be about Luke having his own character arc now because it has done a thing that is going to make Luke have to finally, like, make a decision. Eventually. At some point. I hope. LUKE YOU CAN LEAVE PALPATINE IT'S OKAY.
