In the aftermath of the Galactic Empire's defeat against the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Battle of Endor, Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker held a funeral for his father, Anakin Skywalker, on the forest moon of Endor. During the battle, Anakin, who had been known as the Sith Lord Darth Vader&mdash;was redeemed by Luke and brought balance to the Force. However, the redemption cost Anakin his life, having been mortally wounded by Emperor Palpatine while killing his former Master.

After his death, Anakin became one with the Force. Luke escaped the Death Star II, where Anakin had died, just before the space station was destroyed by the Rebel Alliance. Once on Endor, Luke built a funeral pyre and lit his father's empty armor on fire. After the funeral ended, Luke joined the Rebels and the native Ewoks for a victory celebration, where he saw the spirit of his father&mdash;along with the spirits of Jedi Masters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda&mdash;proudly watching the celebration.
