    Uncle Owen won’t let him go down to Tosche Station with Biggs to look at power converters!

        After Anakin’s mom was freed she married a moisture farmer and had more kids (or the farmer already had them). So Uncle Owen is either Luke’s half-uncle or his step-uncle.

          Owen is the son of Cliegg Lars and another woman who died before Cliegg married Anakin’s mom. So he is Luke’s step-uncle.

          She was a freaking queen. That doesn’t sound right.

          Oh, you said Anakin’s mom. Wouldn’t that make Owen Luke’s step-grandfather?

          Edit 2: nvm, I got what you’re saying now. Anakin’s Mom’s kid is raising Luke. Gotcha.

            Padme’s Queen title was an elected one. She wasn’t royalty. She was a Senator after her term ended, and there was another Queen.

            Leah was adopted by a royal family, which is how she got the title of Princess. She also became a Senator.

              Oh, yes. So Luke was raised by Anakin’s mom? Wouldn’t Anakin think to look there for him, or like, visit his mom sometimes?

              Edit: I thought his mom was killed by the Sand People.

                His mom’s brother? Who was a slave elsewhere and Anakin never knew him maybe? Or thought he was dead? Then the republic found him but Vader did not? I dunno
