The Mustafarians celebrate the fall of the Empire, but the shadow of Vader’s Castle still hangs over them, keeping them from ever feeling safe. When two young boys decide they’re going to destroy the castle themselves, a wizened old Mustafarian has to step in. He tries to put the boys off of their mission by telling them two tales to teach them the lessons they might otherwise learn the hard way.
