| | The State of the Galactic Civil War |
 | | Flint and Barney’s town was left in ruins, and Flint found his mother dead; as he spoke to himself and promised to avenge her, Vader recognized the youth’s potential to become strong in the Dark Side of the Force and took him under his wing as well (ANN#3 27-34, 36). |
 | | Lumiya and her forces subsequently allied themselves with the Tof, who were more cutthroat and ruthless than even the Nagai, yet they were still defeated by the combined force of the Alliance and Nagai: the Tof leader Prince Sereno was captured, and Lumiya was left for dead (LDSE 27, SW#103 18, SW#107 13, 20-22). |
 | | There is no conclusive evidence that Lumiya was Flint’s superior in the Force, but she was in Vader’s service longer than Flint, was able to defeat Luke in a duel (whereas Flint could not), and lived on fighting for the Empire, while Flint eventually shied away from the Dark Side. |
