Oculus VR has released the third chapter of theirStar Warsvirtual realness game , Vader Immortal , and it reveals why Darth Vader choose to stay at Mustafar . He memorize the chronicle of the planet he called home , that it had once been a satellite plenteous in life reign by a fair sex called Lady Korvacs . Unfortunately , thousands of years ago , the Sith attacked Mustafar and Lady Korvacs had been lay waste to after the expiry of her husband . Lady Korvacs take a means to bring him back ; she needed to acquire a valued gemstone calledthe Brightstar , that was link to all life on the planet . Using the Brightstar , she performed a forbidden ritual in an attempt to raise her husband , but the process was only part completed and he was restored as a wraith - like creature . Horrifically , the act of resurrection drained most of the sprightliness from Mustafar , transform it into the broken , volcanic world seen in the picture show . Needless to say , Darth Vader find this account fascinating .

This , then , is the true reason Darth Vader remained on Mustafar ; he still think it was potential to take Mustafar back from the dead . He sought out the Brightstar , urgently attempting to place it and apply its power to conquer death itself . In the destruction , Darth Vader arrive within a hair ’s comprehensiveness of success , even managing to win the Brightstar - but it was destroyed by the end ofVader ImmortalChapter 3 .

Of course , the tragic satire of all this is that Padmé would n’t have thank him for bringing her back from the all in . Rather , she ’d have been horrified at the toll of her resurrection , at the idea an integral world had been give on her behalf . No doubt it would have ended in repugnance , with Padmé either vote down herself again in guilt and disgrace , or with Darth Vader lose his mood and striking his darling down once more . And Palpatine , of course , would have been delighted with either effect ; Darth Sidious has always been fascinated by the idea of conquering last , and his apprentice would have unwittingly help him learn how to do it .
