Episode VI. Darth Vader: Mortis Ex Machina

Chapter IV (Episode VI) identifies Anakin Skywalker's path to becoming Darth Vader with the Norse God Odin's path to his fated death during Ragnarok.

This episode thus explores how Darth Vader and Odin manifest an Elementary Idea. That is, these similar personifications of Death represent a universal human struggle: The conflict of our Ego, our Destiny, with the inevitable death thereof, the Fate of all life, and the shapes it may take without ethical responsibility.

For Jackson Crawford's video (mentioned at the 21:28 mark) regarding the validity of Odin the "Allfather," please follow this link.
