Skywalker too arrogant initially, gaining sister and balance in the Force? (6)
I believe the answer is:
stasis
'balance in the force?' is the definition.
'stasis' can be an answer for 'balance' (I've seen this in another clue). I'm unsure of the 'in the force?' bit.
'skywalker too arrogant initially gaining sister' is the wordplay.
'initially' indicates taking the first letters.
'gaining' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'sister' becomes 'sis' (synonyms).
The first letters of 'skywalker too arrogant' is 'sta'.
'sta'+'sis'='STASIS'
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stasis that I've seen before include "absence of change" , "Standstill" , "Assist (anag.)" , "Secret police force's" , "lack of activity" .)
