It's Yoda's saber.

Folks, its a simple notion.

Yoda now has the weight of the Force behind him, since the Dark Side has revealed itself.

Guys, don't complicate this.

I post what I get - not what I interpret. Okey day?

No clone, go get the last Ternian report with Yoda fighting in the Holding room, pop this in after Yoda gets zapped.


It isn't out of context. Yoda and Sidious are fighting for the rule of the galaxy - Yoda with all the power of the Jedi who have died to protect the Galaxy, and Sidious with the Sith.

Yoda walks down a long hallway that leads to the entrance of a room called the "Holding Office of the Supreme Chancellor." Two Imperial Guards block the room. As Yoda approaches lightning shoots from the hands of the Emperor. Yoda makes a subtle gesture and deflects the lightning; shocking the Imperial Guards into unconciousness.

"Your time is over! The Sith rule the galaxy! Now and forever!" says Sidious.

Suddenly, in Yoda's hand, a new creation is born from the Jedi that had secretly bonded themselves together over the last millenia - a blade of light.

"At an end your rule is, and not short enough it was, I must say," replies Yoda.

Then, from a hidden place within his robe, Sidious pulls back the cloth and a small weapon falls into his hand.

When the blades meet, it is more than Yoda against Palpatine, more the millennia of Sith against the legions of Jedi; it is the expression of the fundamental conflict of the universe itself.

Light against dark.

With speed and veracity it moves closer to the huge Chancellor's Pod that occupies the middle of the room until the Jedi and the Sith are upon its great foundations. Suddenly, the pod begins to rise as the two combatants battle it out...

The Chancellor's podium continues to rise into the vast empty space of the Senate arena. In the middle of the Senate, bolts of lightning flash from the pod. Suddenly, delegation pods free themselves of the curving walls and slam throughout the chamber - some by the use of the Force, others by the control panels.

Sidious jumps onto one of the flying pods. Yoda goes to follow but is hit by a bolt of lightening and falls. Sidious, exhausted, looks down into the debris below, but Yoda is not to be seen.

Immediately, Sidious calls his Clone Intelligence and the Senate Building is stormed by his Imperial Army.

Allow me to help you with this interpretation:

"Suddenly, in Yoda's hand, a new creation is born from the Jedi that had secretly bonded themselves together over the last millennia - a blade of light."

Before this, the lightsaber was just a jedi's weapon... but now, in the hands of Yoda - it's real purpose is shown. The weapon has become much more, it is now a beacon of hope - it embodies the Light side of the force. In this very moment, all of the force is with Yoda. His fallen friends, old jedi before his time... Yoda is "in the zone" as far as you're concerned.

"When the blades meet, it is more than Yoda against Palpatine, more the millennia of Sith against the legions of Jedi; it is the expression of the fundamental conflict of the universe itself.

Light against dark."

The lightest of Light... versus the darkest of dark... how can this be confusing? What the author is trying to say is this is much more than just a lightsaber battle - it IS the force. It is the complete essence of Star Wars.

This report was for those who were asking about the second saber - no more, no less.

That was overwrought, crappy writing. Hopefully it's not verbatim from the novel.
