Did he say that? Palm, face, do your thing.

Was it after Sacrifice, 'cause I feel like I would've remembered it if I'd read that.


It was in FATE OF THE JEDI: ABYSS. Basically...this happens (and "thanks" to TOR Message for it -- basically, I was Googling the phrase after running across it just because of the sheer WTF factor):

A pair of the Sith Chasemaster Frigates had decided to ignore what seemed to Luke as common sense and instead had moved forward at far too great a speed to negotiate such a debris field. Doubtless the hapless captain was hoping to score points with Sith Lord Taalon by gathering some information or perhaps looting a body. Daring, but foolish.
Luke, Ben, and Vestara watched as, too late, the frigate realized its mistake and tried to avoid a collision.

That was when something very large moved into place, as fast as it could but with agonizing slowness. Luke caught a strong hit of determination as the Rockhound activated its extremely powerful tractor beam and tried to catch both frigates with it. One of them slowed, stopped. The other one slowed, but not enough to keep it from its fate.
Ben, Vestara, and Luke all watched, not averting their eyes at the sudden bright flash of light. Luke felt the dozens of lives aboard the frigate wink out, some immediately, some more slowly.

"What a waste," Luke said. "A useless sacrifice. All they've done is create more debris."
He felt a surge of anger, quickly shuttered, from Vestara. "One might expect more
compassion from a Jedi," Vestara said.
"Compassion is for those who deserve it," Luke said.


Yeah...you can verbally abuse me now. XD
