While Ahsoka attempts to repair the damaged shuttle for their escape from Mortis , Anakin and Obi - Wan contemplate whether this is the right course of action , with Son , corrupted by the Dark Side , still being at large . Anakin decides to return to Father and seek his help since he has doubts that Son can be held prisoner on this planet permanently , and meets with him outside the crypt where Father has just buried Daughter , the Dagger of Mortis laid upon her chest . Father is now determined to eliminate Son and the danger he poses to the universe , but refuses to accept Anakin ’ s offer of aid , since Son would easily use Anakin ’ s power to tip the balance of the Force , wreaking havoc in the galaxy . He tells Anakin that the Force will now decide over their fates and to look inside himself for the answer for what is to be done . When he leaves the crypt , Anakin encounters a ghostly apparition of his first Jedi mentor , Qui - Gon Jinn . Still doubtful about what to do with Son , Anakin seeks Qui - Gon ’ s advice , but just like Father , Qui - Gon advises him to look into himself for the true answer , and tells him to go to a certain place , the Well of the Dark Side , to face his most personal challenge . In the meantime , Obi - Wan prepares to look for Anakin when he is met by Father , who tells him of Anakin ’ s destination but tells him not to interfere . Obi - Wan protests , however , and departs for the Well . Anakin descends into the Well , which lies hidden in the fiery bowels of Mortis , where he is met by Son . Son attempts to draw him to his side by revealing terrible visions of the future . Fearful , Anakin refuses to confront the images and is overwhelmed by anguish . Son offers to help him change his future and prevent what Anakin has seen , and Anakin chooses to go with him . When Obi - Wan arrives a short time later , he finds Anakin poisoned by the Dark Side and in Son ’ s company , who then depart , leaving Obi - Wan behind . Obi - Wan contacts Ahsoka , instructing her to disable the shuttle ( just right after she has managed to repair it ) , but before she can go about the task , Anakin arrives . Just in time , Ahsoka manages to sabotage the power systems , get away and recover Obi - Wan . Worried that the two will join forces with Father , Son departs to prevent this , enters his sister ’ s tomb and recovers the Dagger . Left alone , Anakin is confronted and questioned by Father . Anakin maintains that he will cause great suffering in the future . Father erases Anakin ’ s memory of his future to break the hold of the Dark Side on him , and the two are rejoined by Obi - Wan and Ahsoka at the monastery . Son arrives soon afterwards , and Father pleads with him one last time to let go of his plans . When Son refuses to give up , Anakin attacks him , shortly followed by his friends , but Son proves too powerful for them . In order to strip his son of the Force which he has bestowed upon him , Father takes the Dagger and turns it upon himself . Shaken by remorse , Son recovers and makes peace with his father , just before he is run through by Anakin ’ s lightsaber . With his dying breath , Father proclaims Anakin the Chosen One since he has brought balance back to this world and promises that he will do it again , but warns him to beware his inner self or else he will bring doom to the galaxy . With that , Father ' s body vanishes . With the death of Father , the Force which has permeated Mortis dissipates , and a falling crystal shatters on the tip of the monastery ’ s tower , enveloping the three Jedi with a blinding flash . When they come to , they find themselves back in space inside the shuttle and being contacted by Rex . They are confused to learn that only a moment has passed since they lost contact with their cruiser , but recover sufficiently enough to complete their rendezvous . Behind the scenes . The Sith Lords Darth Revan and Darth Bane were slated to make appearances as advisors to the Son , but were cut late in production . Darth Bane appeared in the later episode Sacrifice , but with an entirely redone character design , which is his current canonical appearance .
