But while the child thanked Vader, the dark lord seemed ready to also kill the boy whose life he had saved not even five minutes prior. And as a result, he became a hero in the eyes of this child, the Black Knight of the story of freedom for an entire people. But his actions unintentionally freed an entire species, a whole planet really, from the tyranny of a mindless beast whose sole purpose was destruction. To Vader, this must have been just a day in the life, another obstacle in his path to be dominated. Then, Vader cemented his legacy on this planet by ripping open Ender's throat. He would have been killed by Ender had Vader not ridden in on one of the planet's horse-like creatures and force pushed the boy away from the beast. Then finally, the battle reached the child himself. He watched as Vader fell and rose time after time, never giving Ender the victory she craved. Unbeknownst to Vader, one of the natives of the planet, a Cianapian child, witnessed his battle.

But Vader was a lord of the Sith and is never cowed (except by the Emperor), so he fought back against this creature, seeing it for what it truly was: Just another foolish creature who didn't understand the power of the Dark Side. Immediately after exiting his ruined TIE fighter, Vader was attacked by Ender, a massive monster who had ravaged the surface of the planet for untold years, to the point where the survivors of her rampage viewed her as a dark god.

In Darth Vader Annual #1 by Kieron Gillen and Leinil Yu, Vader makes a crash landing on the planet Cianap.
