Summary: Obi-Wan Kenobi has never known it, but he has always been the Force’s Champion, destined to suffer infinite sadness in defense of the Light. On his last turn on the wheel, responsibility for The Chosen One, the false child of prophecy, had been thrust upon him with no warning, and Darkness held the upper hand.

But this time, the Force has marshaled its power and will protect its Champion until the time is right, no matter how long Obi-Wan has to wait and how much he has to suffer.

Or,

Obi-Wan is reborn as a twelve-year old.

He wakes up on a slavers’ ship, with all of his prior life’s memories intact, and he’s bound for Tatooine with a Force-inhibitor collar around his neck, a bomb implanted in his spine, and no way of knowing what state of the Galaxy is in.

Just another day in the life of the Force’s Champion.

Chapter Summary: Bail Organa has made peace with his life in this timeline. He’s found purpose in good work, in teaching and writing and philanthropy. He understands that he is not the same person he had been in that other life, the intensely driven public figure, always in the thick of things. His life now is quiet, thoughtful, deliberate.

And lonely. But it is still a life.

If he has any regrets, he tells himself that Breha is happy with her husband, Marco. That she married for love, not power. And he can live with that. Most of the time.
