He could feel it too, the minute that the room seemed to expand and let more air in, even if it was exactly the same size as before. He felt like he could trust this Jedi, young and naïve as he seemed to be.
Maul, were he any less dignified, would have rolled his eyes at the mention of love being able to redeem a Sith Lord. "You sound like half of my foolish friends in this town. They all believe in redemption through love as well." Something Maul kept being told but staunchly refused to believe himself, even when something like a simple hug from Usagi had been enough to stop him right in his tracks when his vendetta against Obi-Wan had blinded him with rage.
They would be proven right, of course. No one on the Dark Side was immune to the power of love save for Sidious himself. It could redeem even the most twisted souls, including Maul himself.
In a generous mood after being told Sidious would eventually die, and feeling a pang of sympathy for someone who had also lost their family after having such a short time with them, Maul told Luke something he would have otherwise kept to himself. He placed a friendly, gloved hand on Luke's shoulder. "Ask Obi-Wan about him. He is in this town as well and trained your father as his padawan from the time he was a small boy."
