Episode IV was set during a time of war between the Rebellion, the good side, and the Empire, which is considered the evil side. The science fiction story is about a young man, Luke Skywalker, who travels into space to fight against the Empire. Luke is from the planet Tatooine, a desert, where he farms water with his uncle. Luke’s uncle buys two droids, R2D2 and C3PO, who happen to have been involved in the war and worked for the rebellion. Luke discovers a recording in one of the droids of Princess Leia saying she needed help, and that sparks the beginning of his journey. He meets Ben, also known as Obi-Wan Kenobi, who becomes his mentor, and teaches him how to use “the force”. In Star Wars, “the force” is a magical way for people to control things using their unconscious minds.

Luke Skywalker chooses to join Obi Wan Kenobi, and through their journey Luke was changed from a parentless boy to a Jedi in training (Star Wars IV). One of the biggest parts in a Hero’s Journey is the life changing event that causes the hero to leave his home in the first place. When Luke’s aunt and uncle are killed, he is alone and has no reason to stay on his home planet of Tatooine so goes with Obi Wan. He changes his whole life around in a very short period of time, like his master, all he has left is his training. Both Romeo and Juliet changed their lives around for each other, even though it resulted in death (Shakespeare). The feuding families could never know about their children’s relationship because they hadn’t adjusted to the idea of ending their fighting and still hated each other. Romeo went first and Juliet followed behind and the death toll went up, if the families had changed their views toward each other , no one would have lost their lives. Those who are open to change, will be introduced to many life altering

He had trouble adjusting to his new stepfather, like Luke." It should have been his father there " (page 33) and " father's hands were like that" (page 35) demonstrates how Lulach praised his father and didn't want to accept his stepfather being in his dad’s position. In this story, many language features have been used. The dialogue tense emphasises the emotion behind the relationship between the stepfathers and sons. Also characterisation is strongly used to connect with Luke and Lulach, for an example, “how would she react, he thought, if I kissed her?” Shows that Luke is a bit of a dare devil and has curiosity to his

Imagine a society in which the main law is the population law. In the novel “Among the Hidden” by Margaret Peterson Haddix, the population law determines that a family may only consist of four people. But in the Garner’s house they didn’t play by the rules, instead they had a third child, Luke. He hides and lives in the attic. But when the “population police” arrive Luke hides in the basement.

Luke’s journey starts when he is inside the millennium falcon with Han Solo, Chewy, Obi-wan, R2-D2, and C3-P0. During this event, they soon come to see a planet, which turned out not be a planet, but to be the Death Star. The Death Star we soon find out is the ship of Darth Vader. Han Solo tries to turn around but it is too late. They are soon entering the Death Star. When they get inside, they hear that Princess Leia, the woman from the video message, is trapped in a prison cell and is due to be executed. This is one of the first obstacles for the team, because now they have to rescue Princess Leia from her death, but it isn’t as hard as they think. Luke and Han Solo come up with the idea to wear the Storm Trooper uniforms, the uniforms of the “military defense” of the Death Star. Luke is able to sneak into the cell where Leia is kept, and therefore completes his first obstacle, but there are many more to come. After rescuing Leia, she then becomes one of his allies, and will help him later in the movie. The next and probably the most substantial challenge that the group faces is to escape with the Death Star with the layout of the Death Star inside of R2-D2. While trying to do this they are all being shot at by Storm Troopers, but they were still able to escape. Well almost all of them. Obi-wan Kenobi sacrificed himself to Darth Vader so the others could escape the Death Star. This then leads to the final confrontation, with the outline of the Death Star, Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Chewy, C3-PO, R2-D2, and Princess Leia, have to figure out a way to attack the Death Star. Luke is in an X-Wing Fighter Plane and he makes the last shot, therefore blowing up the Death Star and everyone inside. In conclusion, Luke Skywalker is the perfect example of a hero because he shows the second step of the hero’s journey
