Did Palpatine bury the Lusankya with Telekinesis?

Started by Azronger9 pages

Yes, he did bury. That's rather explicitly stated in multiple sources now.

Also, was this not confirmed by the author?

This was a good thread. Instead of Sidious' TK getting wanked his best TP feat got thrown into question. Perfect self-own.

Abel G Pena apparently confirmed it to AncientPower in a thread some time back.

Neph's selective memory is particularly ironic in this case, as he ended up having his argument defeated by his own post.

Found it:

Peña: That said, looking over the text, it appears to me that a direct analogy with the Ravager and that your interpretation is essentially correct. (Another example, though in reverse, is Emperor Palpatine using the Force to bury the Lusankya, in plain sight, beneath the surface of the planet Coruscant.)

Assuming it isnt another fake.

"It appears to me." says a lot.

agreed, but not about the part in brackets.

There's also this quote reinforcing the notion:

Once completed, the Emperor himself used the dark side of the Force to hide the Lusankya beneath the surface of Coruscant's cityscape.

Sheev is a TK god 👆

Nice find. 👆

Here's the scan, in case anyone doubts its authenticity (which is possible, given the atypical name of the source):

And why you assume he is a TK god?

I play the same card with what is done with Nihilus and say that we don't know how much it took Palps or at what rate it was moved. And burying a 'ship' isn't compared to lifting one up and moving it throughout space.

Considering the fact that he mind-fogged Coruscant citizens, so they could not find out the truth, and ordered his imperials to bury it, per the source, Palpatine did hide the ship beneath the surface because he mind-fogged the Coruscant people and he was the one to give the order.
It's just like saying that Hitler attacked Russia and broke the alliance treaty. Hitler doesn't attack Russia, but he represents the command of the attack.

Yes, he does. I believe Azronger has a quote from someone saying he does.

Edit - nvm, beni posted it on this page.
