After nearly freezing to dying in Hoth ’s icy tundra , then almost getting destroyed / captured by Darth Vader and the Empire , Luke successfully makes it to Dagobah , where a chirpy ( and admittedly downright annoying ) Master Yoda is wait to train him in the ways of the Force .

Yoda’s Cave Vision Nearly Killed Him (& He Isn’t The Only One)
InStar war : Yoda#10 by Cavan Scott and Ibraim Roberson , Yoda is at perhaps his broken point in his sprightliness . He ’s in expatriation on Dagobah , stewing in the misery and disgrace of his loser . Yoda blamed himself for the fall of the Jedi and the raise of the Empire , so he decided to take himself out of the equivalence entirely . However , Obi - Wan Kenobi decided that Yoda was n’t done quite yet . Before giving Luke the ‘ all - clean-cut ’ to visit Yoda on Dagobah , Obi - Wan ’s Force Ghost visited Yoda and convert him to take Luke as his scholarly person . To do that , Obi - Wan first had to convince Yoda to enter the Dark Side Cave and present the dark aspects of his nature that understandably reside in his disgraceful past . And , as shown in this issue , that shadow was blanket - and dangerous .
While Luke only ascertain Vader , and the ugly possibility that he could end up just like him , Yoda had much more fuel in that proverbial flaming . Yoda encountered a twisted , mutilated adaptation of Count Dooku , a fire - steep Anakin Skywalker , a lightning - exert Darth Sidious , and a pile of the dead all pulling him under the earth to join them . While it ’s comfortable to chalk up these outcome as being vestal manifestations of Yoda ’s own anxiety , anotherStar Warscomic confirms the very real dangers that cave holds for those who venture inside . InStar war : Crimson Reign#3 , an academic in both the lightheaded and dark side of meat of the Force namedMadelin Sun figure the Dark Side Cave , and the ‘ visions ’ she meet moderate to her permanent mutilation . She survived , but just barely , and was forever changed by the traumatic experience .
The concentrated drab side energy within the Dagobah Cave is strong enough to have a physical encroachment on those who enter . It was dead on target for Madelin , which means it was true for Luke and Yoda . However , where Yoda stomach out is that his Force vision was right smart more vivid than the other two , meaning the terror to his life was far neat as a termination . Therefore , it ’s light to see - after the intricacy present in thisStar Warsissue - thatYodaagreeing to train Luke Skywalker was actually right smart more heroic than it seemed , as it , in fact , almost killed him .
