Obi-Wan paused as Luke did. He could sense his anger and his struggle. For several moments he said nothing, merely waiting patiently for Luke to speak his mind. Though he was surprised and impressed as the young man managed to push down his feelings. Something Anakin had never been very good at.

The Jedi Master smiled back solemnly. "I can't speak for my older self. I can only assume that whatever I said, or didn't say, was meant to protect you."

He didn't know what his fate was in the however many years he would spend watching over Luke, but he did know that his priority was to protect the young boy he had taken to Tatooine. Whether he did everything right or not, that was hard to say. Though it seemed that he'd been successful in keeping the boy from harm. ... Well. Relatively speaking. He had noticed the missing hand.
