I think that balance would lean slightly more to the light because the light is more used for every day things. The dark side would really only come out during battle. IMO.

He doesn't lean towards one side more than the other... all of his actions have the purpose of keeping the balance between the light and the dark. When he wiped Anakin's memory, he did not do it out of kindness, but because he felt like he had to do this for the force to find its balance again.

Anakin was destined to become the Father from the start.

In fact, i wouldn't be surprised if he was the Father all along with how time works in this place

Not true. Yes his name means father but George Lucas didn’t even consider the force gods existence back than.

I wish the relationship between Anakin and the Father was expanded on more. The Father never explained why Anakin specifically was chosen to succeed to him and I’ve questioned if the Father is actually Anakin’s father.

However Anakin got a massive middle finger from Kenobi before he could achieve his potential in the force, thus preventing him from force god status. Omg.... if Anakin reached his true potential, he would be an absolute force god since I think he could master the light and darkside just like Revan Reborn if you gave Anakin enough time to do it and with his medichlorian count.... everyone gets destroyed in a fight

@@HITMAN.No.61 Anakin is supposed to be Father's replacement. Their potential should be equal.

[@tristanmorris9432]

So from what I have gathered from all these theory videos I've been watching, the way Anakin brings balance to the force is by tearing down the established order of light and dark. Think about it. Cosmically, he causes their destruction in the form of causing the Son and Daughter to die. Politically, he destroys the Jedi Order and eventually he destroys the Sith Order (by killing Palpatine, then dying himself, thus ending the Rule of Two: the Rule of Two being the only type of "Order" the sith have). This is just how I reason how Anakin is the prophesied bringer of balance. He basically just destroys the established orders of both light and dark, leaving the force balanced without any group dedicated to service purely to either side.

The jedi are a deeply flawed organisation. Even the daugther, the incarnation of the light side, is not limited to the jedi teachings. The jedi do not own the light side of the force, and the sith don't own the dark side.

[@sliceofbread29yrago52]

Interesting point. In The Last Jedi, Luke Skywalker exclaims how flawed the Jedi were. They even failed to notice the senate was the most powerful Sith in the entire galaxy, that's how dim their vision had become.

[@Khaliljt]

Yeah I don’t think these guys are great role models

[@DeathScepter]

Keep in mind that Jedi never said that they own the force or the light side but based their teachings on the Light Side. Due to the connection between Emotions and Attachments and the ease of Exploit of that Said Attachment, It is easier for a Jedi to serve the Republic and the galaxy at large to avoid attachment. For example, Palpatine exploited Anakin's attachment to his wife and mother to join the dark side. One of the Reasons why emotional control is so important to the Jedi is that it is important for the Jedi to be level headed to serve the Republic and the galaxy. To serve both is to serve life and Life is a major aspect of the Force.

I have long been of the opinion that the Force overall, encompassing *all* life, not just beings like the Jedi and Sith, tends to default to Balance. But the actions of beings who can wield the Force, such as the Daughter and Son, Jedi and Sith, can create imbalance. This is because they tend to focus on *personal* ideals and goals which their powers enable them to then impose on everyone else. The respective codes of the Jedi and Sith are nothing more than the *beliefs* of adherents of those traditions, rather than being actual expressions of how the Force is supposed to work.

Not to mention, she isnt even that old, fate of the jedi was 2009. That's after the prequels. She is a part of the EU. Since clone wars was originally made with legends in mind, this whole story arc was made with abeloth as a thing in mind. The fact that we have the dagger at all goes to show they were thinking of abeloth. Just because we don't know if things are canon in current disney canon doesn't mean it isn't legends canon. It isnt one of the other, we have sith hounds in disney canon now but that doesn't mean they aren't still a part of legends for example. Everything not a part of disney canon is legends. Whether they incorporate it into canon is unknown, and so all of that could become canon later, but that wont change that the original versions of them are still legends.

Pretty sure its midi-something.) weren't responsible for peoples' force powers, but I think what they were *actually* trying to say is that midi-whatchyamajigs are just *attracted* to the force and that's why they can measure their levels to tell how strong they are or whatever. Maybe someone more knowledgeable can correct me if I'm wrong. If that is in fact the case I'm down with it. It wouldn't change the force as we understand it (or understood it pre-midichlorians). Sorry for going all theoretical star wars on ya.

Omg thats what this part of the clone wars was. I remembered brief memories of it in my head as being amazing but I couldnt remember what the hell it was called.

[@Gor85]

I think they are embodiment of the Force. He was Balance. He was amazingly powerful. No words for it. I havent seen the Son video. I think we will hear of them again. The Force wil be with you too

[@kavalkahn]

I love the fact that the story of their family is pretty much like a metaphor of Anakin's life. Light and Dark hunt each other, until Light gets the upper hand on Balance and chases Dark. Through remorse, Dark murders Light and throws the world into darkness, but when faced with the death of another loved person, the Chosen One suddenly ends Dark, Balance dies and a new one emerges. This is why I fear TRoS might take a huge dump in this beautiful story if Rey kills Palpatine. Anakin is the Chosen One.

I don’t understand how him seeing the whole future wouldn’t immediately make him turn to the light for good, or at least not trust palpatine. He could have gone on saving Padme, killing sidious, just being a good dood

[@fernandolopez4895]

Such a good episode. It's crazy how Anakin saw what he was to become. He was so torn by it. I wish he could of kept that vision so he'd know what not to do.

[@МаксимСавуляк]

I think if Anakin was just another one good character, with no drama, StarWars won't be so memorable

Is it just me? Anakin, Ahsoka and Obi-wan also somehow represents son, daughter and father, which respective light/dark side portions?

The arc about Mortis was my favourite one from Clone Wars. So much mysticism and expansion of the star wars universe.

[@baowolf0011]

The whole balance in the force thing always bugged me. Particularly from the Jedi point of view. Every time one of them goes on about balance I can't help but roll my eyes. Being that they put so much effort into avoiding the dark side. You can't balance a scale by placing weights on only one side.

[@reeferman42078]

What so many people seem to forget is that the idea behind mortis and the family came from Legends material specifically the novel. "apocalypse". Where abeloth was the mother I believe it was of the family of mortis... and she was the Ultimate Enemy of the ongoing Star Wars stories told right before Disney rebooted the cannon!!! I love that these Concepts survived the Disney Purge!!! I'm a huge fan of all things Legends and New Canon, of course not all the stories I've read or listen to or watched on a show have been good, some have been really lousy written or the stories just were not aimed at me and so I didn't give it much thought, I really hope to see more of these Concepts in future Cannon material

[@Spartan-343]

Actually Clone Wars and Mortis and the Mortis Trio came first. The Apocalypse novel then used those concepts and added Abeloth to it. The Darth Plagueis novel also referenced Mortis and the Ones later aswell.

[@reeferman42078]

Ahh see... I did not follow the Clone Wars that closely and forgot that that's where they were introduced on screen... I had thought apocalypse came out a year or two before that but I stand corrected thank you

[@magecretio4133]

If i ever become a writer for star wars, i want the father to be one of the first humans within the galaxy that arrived in this galaxy, and the force decided him to become and first je’daii and to bring balance. And that his mission will be immortal, so he reincarnates. He has many various “children” through the galaxy not only representing the basic light and dark. That he “dies” only because pf the failure of his mission, and he shall come again, as he has done in the beginning of time.

It's better if Disney did not mess up the Force's origin, the deeper stories don't make sense and proven that Star Wars is a science fantasy instead of science fiction.

[@deadaccount5238]

[@cryoblaster8371]

I always believed what happened on Mortis reflected the galaxy First the daughter died, she who wad the embodiment of the light itself. Then the Father, the embodiment of balance, and then the son The jedi, who tried to embody the light, fell first, as a result balance in the galaxy had collapsed and the dark side reigned. And then, finally, the dark side fell with palpatine. I wont consider the sequals because they didnt exist when any of this was made so the lore couldnt coincide
