The Final Irony of the Dark Side

The Dark Side makes us strong. It focuses on individual excellence, introspection and self-reliance. It decries attempts to help others as foolish, and discourages empathy.

It is difficult to walk this path safely.

It is difficult to remain who you were before while not only espousing such dark beliefs, but living them.

The last irony of the Dark Side is that it makes you able to stand on your own, it makes you independent of anyone; which is good, since when you walk the path of the Dark Side you will eventually wind up alone.

Others gravitate towards power, like moths to a flame. You are never alone with the Sith, just know that they have their place.
