Does it strain believability? Absolutely.īut Star Wars has always been a soap opera. There, she raised Jaina alone, training her in all the ways of the Jedi that Luke was so determined to forget. Due to the danger of the First Order and Luke's increasing apathy and retreat from responsibility, Mara took her daughter and disappeared into the stars. When the unthinkable happened, the burden of guilt Luke carried only caused their marriage to splinter.
