Mara shook her head at that. "I was his Hand, I was the only one," she explained not even realising that there were others like her, all their identities kept secret from each other each one believing they were the only Hand. "I was trained by the Emperor but never that well. I know the basics of the Force but there is much I'm unaware of. I have used it to notice more things, to become more observant as well as to increase my reflexes and reaction times as well as to tell if people are lying but that is probably the extent of what he taught me. He didn't want me to become too powerful," she admitted.
"I was his secret weapon. It didn't matter where I was in the Galaxy he could instruct me through the Force to undertake various missions. Up to the the very last moment he was doing so." She wondered if he would pick up on what she wasn't saying.
