Summary: Obi-Wan Kenobi has never known it, but he has always been the Force’s Champion, destined to suffer infinite sadness in defense of the Light. On his last turn on the wheel, responsibility for The Chosen One, the false child of prophecy, had been thrust upon him with no warning, and Darkness held the upper hand.

But this time, the Force has marshaled its power and will protect its Champion until the time is right, no matter how long Obi-Wan has to wait and how much he has to suffer.

Or,

Obi-Wan is reborn as a twelve-year old.

He wakes up on a slavers’ ship, with all of his prior life’s memories intact, and he’s bound for Tatooine with a Force-inhibitor collar around his neck, a bomb implanted in his spine, and no way of knowing what state of the Galaxy is in.

Just another day in the life of the Force’s Champion.

Chapter Summary: While the kitten-shaped Avatars of the Force distract Oban from the Darkness, they don’t make him forget what has happened to him. As Obi-Wan spends time with Oban, he finds him a heartbreaking mix of typical little boy and oddly mature ghost.

For his part, Oban is just glad to be back in the Temple. He just wants to know what has happened to all of his clan mates, even though they must have grown up and become knights by now.
