No, I didn't mean the Death Star, or not directly. You said you *had* had no intention of destroying Lothal, but it seemed inevitable then. I remember that very clearly.
Although, also, yes, now that you bring it up. The Death Star. Why was even a whiff of that project not a break point for you? You talk like you couldn't walk away, but I don't understand. You're one of the smartest people I know. You're not even *from* Imperial space. Why was disappearing not an option?
Why couldn't you have said 'no, I won't be part of this' way before you got that point? I honestly thought for a long time that you had to be a true believer in the Empire. It was the only thing that made sense to me.
