And so we place the burden of remaining pure on lesser shoulders? … Do you really believe the Jedi should be the tools of such frail {government} institutions? - Jacen Solo
In "The Joiner King," Jacen Solo questions the role of the Jedi within the framework of governmental authority. He challenges the idea that the Jedi should bear the responsibility of maintaining purity and moral integrity while serving institutions that he perceives as weak and unreliable. This thought process reveals his deep concern regarding the Jedi's alignment with political entities that may undermine their purpose.
Jacen suggests that any burden of purity should not be placed on those who are already vulnerable, implying that demanding this of the Jedi could corrupt their values. His skepticism towards governmental power highlights a conflict between personal ethics and institutional expectations, ultimately questioning the very essence of what it means to be a Jedi in a complex political landscape.
