‘She was our great and powerful princess – feisty, wise and full of hope.’
George Lucas, creator and director of Star Wars
Once upon a time…
… a fearless princess led a resistance.
In a distant galaxy, Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan dedicated her life to fighting against tyranny and oppression.
Acknowledging the dangers and sacrifices that would come with such a mission against the dark, powerful force known as The Empire, Leia did not hesitate to lead her people towards the battlefield.
A cunning diplomat and brave warrior, Princess Leia commanded respect by not only taking charge, but also by taking her place in the fighting line. She spoke her mind and was unwilling to compromise on her principles. This princess was capable of rescuing herself, often shooting out witty remarks at the same time as shooting a blaster pistol.
Leia turned her grief from personal losses into resilience and strength: the more evil she came up against, the more determined she became to beat it, no matter what the cost.
Whether in battle or her beliefs, Princess Leia refused to surrender. She was, and always will be, a never-faltering beacon of hope, shining bright amongst the stars.
