Summary:

Considering that he had picked up what was probably a Sith artifact, promptly passed out in the middle of a war zone, and apparently woken up twenty years in the future with Obi-Wan having taken up residence in his head, Anakin thought he was entitled to have a few questions.

“Maybe this will cheer you up,” Leia said, sliding a miniature holoprojector across the table towards him. “Intelligence just intercepted a priority alpha transmission from Coruscant – an arrest order for a fugitive codenamed Sandman.”

Luke activated the holoprojector, which displayed a portrait of a human male about his own age, with dirty blond hair and a scar across his right eye. The Aurebesh characters scrolling across the base of the hologram were all alphanumeric codes; Luke had to rack his brain to decipher them. “Apprehend alive and unharmed, fugitive armed and dangerous, may be deranged, and – what’s this last code? Jenth-Dorn-Six-Six? I don’t think I’ve ever seen that one before.”

“That’s because it hasn’t been used in more than ten years,” Leia said, practically glowing with excitement. “It’s the Imperial code for a Jedi Knight.”

Luke’s jaw dropped. “Are you sure?”

“Positive,” Leia said. “It’s an older code, but they’ve never bothered to change it because it’s used so rarely nowadays. I don’t think anyone in Imperial High Command would use it by accident.”
