“Reflections of the Force – Three Generations in Perfect Symmetry.”
This mini-galaxy is built around the idea that history rhymes in Star Wars. Each spoke pairs an OT hero with an ST counterpart: Anakin ⇄ Ben, Luke ⇄ Rey, Obi-Wan ⇄ Leia. A central hub of abstract nodes—Chosen One Prophecy and Force Dyad—captures how individual choices echo through prophecy and cosmic balance. Artifacts (two sabres + Sith Wayfinder) orbit their makers, while three era-defining battles form an outer ring. With one hop you can surface mirrored arcs (e.g., "Rey DYAD_WITH Ben" vs. "Anakin APPRENTICE_TO Palpatine") or trace a lightsaber’s whole life cycle. The layout looks like a six-pointed star, so a force-direct graph literally shows the saga’s repeating geometry.
