They don't need it but it would be cool.

That would be cool but what if they used some to found force power to somehow send messages telepathically over a distance to Cilghal. That would be awesome!

Mother Rell lived to be over 400 years old. Dathomir is a planet that is literally rich and seeping with the Force. Augwynne Djo could easily live to be Mother Rell's age. We know some venerable Force users have longer-than-usual lifespans. Mother Rell wasn't the only one. I recall Vima-Da-Boda as well as others. I do think it would be very rewarding if she were still alive and leading the Singing Mountain Clan.

I also had another thought and I don't think it will...

I would want the Elder Djo to defy all odds and still be up and kicking...that would be interesting.

I would love that.

There are so many possibilities for Luke and Ben's journey, it's almost impossible to anticipate. I sort of feel like everything hinges on what they find in the Maw cluster, as that seems to be a) where the Madness is originating from, and b) where Jacen...

Can we take this to it's own thread?

I don't want the "who dies" thing to be the latest in the long line of topics to unnecessarily take over other threads, like "is Jacen evil" or "Jag or Zekk" did.

I am guessing that someone fairly important dieing in the next 1 or 2 books. I am guessing a master maybe Ciagal or Kyp or even Daala. though it could be another.

If Luke is to be killed off it should be in a standalone hardcover by Matt Stover not in a series especially FOTJ since he wants to write Luke's and Han and Leia's final adventure. Or perhaps the Big 3's adventure finale by Stover could be a hardcover trilogy and I heard on TF.N's literature message boards that Sue Rostoni said there might be a trilogy set after FOTJ and not another 9-book series. But things could change.

I would love it if in Fate of the Jedi, not one character, that consistently appears and is known, dies and then in the last novel someone big is finally taken down, or sacrifices himself. It would seem more climactic, I believe. And besides...I am so tired of people dying in every novel. I was very happy that nobody died in Outcast, too.

That's another thing- I don't see Luke dying anywhere near the beginning of the series- I see it happening (If it were to say, be a new 9 book series) in Books 8, with the Jedi then scrambling to fight rising odds, or at the end in Book 9 in a blaze of glory. I would think this would be more possible because I can see them wanting to surprise the hell out of fans and make the series that more of an impact.

There's one thing going for a stand-alone novel where Luke Skywalker dies: Far more people would buy it than one that is part of a series. Buying a novel that is part of a series would demand more commitment, as to be able to know the whole story you would have to buy more than one novel.

A stand-alone novel about old Luke Skywalker in his last fight that ends in his death one way or other, with the novel having a plot that doesn't demand knowledge of the Expanded Universe,...

I'm not sure on Luke dying in either a series or stand alone. I think it would be more probably if he were to die either in action or peacefully in a series for I think people would be more surprised, as opposed to a special stand alone novel featuring an older Luke Skywalker. As for him taking the back seat and being a more Yoda like, I'd certainly like that for it would hopefully give more screentime to the younger generation that have so far been painfully neglected.

That is a good idea but I think if Luke dies in FotJ it will be in a battle. But if Luke dies a more peaceful Yoda type death my guess is he will die in a stand alone very special novel.

I thought it would be very interesting to take the opportuity to chart the rest of Luke and Ben's "Let's follow Jacen" journey. I know this is one of the parts of Fate of the Jedi that has grabbed my interest the most, and I see it continuing to do so for the remainder of the series. I think it is a prime chance to explore some of the non-Jedi/Sith Force using species, cultures and groups across the galaxy and apart from my mantra, THINK OF THE FORCE LORE, I thought...
