Did you know thatDarth Vaderhas his own castle ? It   latterly made an appearing duringRogue One , but later kept piss appearances in his solo funny trial . There are specific reasons why Vader chose to have a fortress for himself , and it ’s only partly because he prefers to be depart alone … when he is n’t killing people that is .

There are also reason why he chose its positioning , and more disturbing , there ’s a specific purpose to the castling itself . Many secrets have been shroud inside this castling , some more perturbing than others . Here is a list of ten of the secret that Darth Vader ’s Castle possess .

Mustafar

Vader had a pick of emplacement for where to build . His master was even uncoerced to give up his home major planet to Vader , to give an musical theme of what was at wager . Instead , Darth Vader opt to go for the planet where he was piercingly bruise . But is there more to it than that ?

Mustafar is a planet of the Outer Rim . It ’s not what one would consider habitable by most standard . It ’s address in lava and flame . The people that populate here are knotty and have adapted to the temperature and volcanic nature of the planet .

The Mustafarians

As remark above , the Mustafarians are a hardy people . They ’d have to be , for survive on this major planet . They can literally sense the fluctuation in the planet , and even fight them in their own way . They begin actively reject what Vader is doing , and for a while , he is n’t even cognizant of it .

Additionally , the Mustafarians are capable of summoning lava fire . This would be a   phenomenal feat by any means . But then consider what the program would be against Vader . Darth Vader has very few weaknesses , but for sure he call back what it felt like to be eaten away by lava . It ’s surprising that Vader would choose to survive so near a people such as this . Perhaps he was hoping to exact revenge on them ?

Where Vader Made His Kyber Crystal Bleed

It is a Sith tradition that they must take the lightsaber of a Jedi they have slain . There is a very specific reason for this . They remove the Kyber crystals inside – and they make them bleed . The process for make them bleed is n’t clearly delineate , other than it requires Brobdingnagian power from the Dark Side .

When Vader had to pick up his Kyber crystal and make it bleed , he opted to go to Mustafar to do it . Here he meditated and work on the crystal until he deliver the goods . It was also here that he had a visual sensation . If he chose to keep his Kyber crystal intact , he knew that he would eventually turn back to the faint side and ultimately demolish himself . Or he could launch the crystal and become even strong . We all bang which option he went with .

The Dark Side Is Strong Here

When Darth Vader was bleeding his quartz glass , he had a imaginativeness . We already discussed this . Vader realization the implications of the vision and the strength of his business leader here . The dark side is stronger on Mustafar . It ’s even stronger at one specific location – the place he decided to eventually build his castling .

It is known that some locations are stronger in either the calorie-free side or the benighted side . We ’ve find this in the movies , novel , and funnies . That Darth Vader negociate to find one is n’t all that surprising . It is however surprising that it was so close to the field where he was so gravely wounded .

Home Of Lord Momin

The location was once the home and examination site of Lord Momin a Sith . It ’s unreadable if this was his birthplace , or if he was drawn to the location just as Darth Vader was . We do know that Momin was a adept when it come to inventions . He considered designing and creating weapons and buildings to be the highest form of his art .

Lord Momin was eventually brought down by the Jedi , but not before he managed to do quite a lot of equipment casualty . But more on that afterward . The important affair to observe is that this is the location where Momin likely died .

Death Engine Testing

Lord Momin , as mentioned above , loved to prove out young weapons and designs . One of these design very well have been the precursor to the Death Star . He designed – and try out – a weapon he called the Death Engine . It took out cities at a fourth dimension , while still allowing him to be close enough to see the pain and annihilating that he do .

Mustafar is the very location where he test this machine . It ’s ultimately the reason why the Jedi were force to act against Momin . It ’s also alone potential that buried somewhere on this planet are the cast away stiff of his Death Engine .

A Tuning Fork

The Castle of Vader is design to be a tuning forking , of variety . Lord Momin himself helped Darth Vader to plan the castle . It postulate several iterations to get ripe , during which clock time Momin should consider himself favorable that he was n’t mortal .

The end was to employ the rook as a tuning fork – a way to reach through the head covering and connect Vader with whatever was on the other side . While he never admitted it , he desperately try his lost wife , Queen Amidala . What he would have done had he rule her is a completely different story .

Force Locus

The Castle was n’t the only factor at dramatic play . They needed to design monoliths to aid concentrate and direct the force play being plied into it . It ’s unbelievable that this would have ever succeeded with a weaker Sith , but that was never a concern for Vader .

With the Castle and Locus decent aligned the threshold of the veil could be open . What is on the other side is a unlike question . This whole mental process once again required the assist of the disembodied spirit of Lord Momin . As Momin put it “ The Door to the Dark Side is interlace , this is the key ” ( Darth Vader # 22 ) .

Resurrection

Momin repeatedly state that this was the location where the veil between life and dying could be pierced . His motive should have been more obvious from the start , but there was so much going on . It ’s no surprise that Vader missed the vital signs of what Momin was actually intending to do here .

This site soon became the location of Lord Momin ’s resurrection . Here he get to the veil and get his body back . In full form once again , he was able-bodied to manipulate the force and once again be whole . All he need to do was proceed his inventing and experiment .

The Truth

Darth Vader had hoped to feel Padme when he opened the door . rather , he find the truth . The truth of who and what he is . The truth of Padme ’s fate – how there is nothing he could have done , no choice he could have made , that would have prevented her death . There was nothing he could do now either , to bring her back .

Vader take many true statement on this day , and it certainly would have wear out a lesser man . For all we know the the true did reveal Vader , at least a little turn . It ’s not like we could easily tell . What we do know is that Darth Sidious was lofty of Vader for learning the truth and surviving it .
