The Jedi had never tried to rescue his [Anakin’s] mother or buy her out of slavery. Instead, they had taken him, given him this new life, but left her behind on Tatooine. He had just accepted it at the time, but now … now he knew how much power Jedi had, and all he could wonder is why she hadn’t been worth their time and trouble, too, if only to keep him happy.
Not even Qui-Gon Jinn had cast a backward glance at Shmi Skywalker. As the months and years wore on, the question would not leave Anakin alone.
He didn’t want to let resentment eat away at his fond memories of his old Master, but he couldn’t stop it sometimes.
The Jedi Council had credits. Real wealth. Would it really have been beyond them to buy his mother out of slavery?
