The Non-Canon Expert looks at the true thoughts of Darth Vader both prior and during his duel with his son Luke Skywalker in Episode 6, describing what Vader's true motivations were throughout the duel and whether he actually intended to defeat and kill Luke so he could retain his place as Darth Sidious's apprentice.

This is a Legends story for Darth Vader with information found within the Legends novel "The Rise and Fall of Darth Vader" by Ryder Windham. I hope that you enjoy it!
