Things of the past continue to be revealed to Luke, first through his conversation with Danu, then through his vision. At last he could be certain of his mother's identity!
I'd bet Danu gave Bail quite a fright by mentioning Polis Massa.
I loved the part about the scent of Alderaan.
And that was an interesting explanation of Padme's death. :)
> You take after her then
Yes he inherited his ability to love from his mother. :)

Nothing on earth will ever convince me that justice was done to Padmé's character with the death scene in ROTS, and the reason they gave for her death. She was worth so much more than that ending, and much as I loved the film, I couldn't love that part. So I had to write something about it, even though it was impossible to do it in a more 'positive' manner. It had to come from glimpses of emotions and memories that Luke sees in this specific way.

he inherited his ability to love from his mother
Yes, and I think Han also sees Luke's selflessness and his strength of mind, as well as the sacrifices he's prepared to make for love, which are all part of one big whole :).
