The Clone Wars draw to a bloody close. Anakin is now a powerful Jedi Master, but he’s become increasingly unstable—tormented by visions of Padmé’s death, the war’s horrors, and betrayal from all sides. Meanwhile, Darth Sidious plays his final hand. After General Grievous is destroyed and Dooku eliminated, Sidious names himself Emperor, revealing his identity and manipulating Anakin into believing the Jedi plan to overthrow him. When Mace Windu and the Council attempt to arrest Sidious, Anakin chooses darkness—killing Windu and becoming Darth Vader. Order 66 is executed. Across the galaxy, Jedi are hunted and exterminated. Obi-Wan confronts Vader on Mustafar after Padmé, heartbroken and betrayed, pleads with Anakin to stop. A duel ensues—Anakin is maimed and burned, left for dead until Sidious saves and entombs him in the black armor of legend. Ahsoka escapes into hiding. Padmé dies giving birth to Luke and Leia, who are hidden away. The Jedi fall. The Empire rises. The Chosen One is lost.
