That was my plan. I needed him to teach me how to...overcome death...then I knew I couldn't let him survive. [It's the Sith way, isn't it? Apprentice killing Master - and Palpatine deserved it after forcing his hand so many times. The faces of the younglings, especially, will forever haunt him.

Maedhros is warm and strong. Anakin is able to breathe easier after the embrace - which he returns shamelessly.]

Don't worry about me. I'm destined to survive for a few decades more, at least. [A few miserable decades.]

That's one thing this place is good for: bringing in monstrosities from all over the universe.
