I don't think it means anything but Death. Now if it was Star Death, I think I would stay away from that, too, we all know what happens when a star dies.
Just join up with the Sith. Oh... wait. No. Nevermind.
Ok! Join the Jedi, come to **** them, **** your master or wound him/her seriously, and join the Sith. rinse and repeat minus the Jedi part, and become Dark Lord of the Sith. Just like the majority of Sith Lords have done. :hatsoff:
