grand ceremony to honor Luke and his friends. The princess awards them with medals
for heroism. Though Luke is still sad over the loss of Ben and his family, he has found a
place among the Rebels, and with them, he will continue to fight the Empire.

is actually the un-named Investigator of Rashomon, and the message the brother is trying to
communicate lies closer to heart.
