Title: Error in Exile
Post by: Meyer on August 09, 2007, 07:24:24 AM
In Exile it is mentioned that Leia holds a green bladed lightsaber that belonged to Mara Jade. And that it was the last saber of Anakin Skywalker, the saber that Obi-Wan took after the duel on Mustafar. Saber that was then passed to Luke who lost it in Besbin. And Luke gave it to Mara Jade in the end of the Last Command. But that saber had a blue blade, not green.

I haven't read the Exile but if someone here has can you tell me is this error explained somehow in the book.

I believe at some point between The Last Command and Specter of the Past, Mara built her own lightsaber. Luke's original one was not built to the fighting style she preferred as Emperor's Hand, so she built one better suited to that style.

Is this written anywhere?

If you read what he said it says that that lightsaber had belonged to Luke and Anikin also.

I believe it is referenced on Wookieepedia, though I don't know what the source is. Also, if you look at the cover for Vision of the Future, Mara has a green lightsaber with a different handle than Luke's old one.

All I know is that in Exile it is said that Leia had Maras saber, saber that was Anakins last and saber that Mara had used for decades. And it also says it is green althought it should be blue.

The lightsaber on Vision of the Future was Luke's. They traded temporarily.
