Yep. In Empire's End, palpatine launches a barrage of lightning bolts at Rayf Ysanna. It looks to almost rip him apart within moments.Ender wrote:He does, and is halfway successful; hence why he lasts as long as he does.Surlethe wrote: Does Luke even attempt to block it?

A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.
