With his son having recently left for Kashyyyk, Luke Skywalker decided the time had come for him to make his return to the military fold. Assuming command of the 3rd Alliance fleet, Skywalker set about planning an invasion of Tatooine; however, the plans quickly fell apart, and Skywalker knew that an invasion was, as of yet, out of the question. But that was not the end of it. Realizing that he could not sway their fears, Skywalker capitulated, and, in the interest of his safety, headed for Tatooine with the Barabel Jedi Master Saba Sebatyne.
