Vader didn't (often) eat - and not in public. But that didn't mean he didn't attend the feast, despite not being able to go on the mission. He was still feeling his self-surgery, and had retreated into himself and an inner fury over the loss of his wife and daughter. That didn't mean he didn't take one of the cloth-wrapped boxes. A test of courage he felt up to and tucked one of the boxes away.
III
Vader watched the Skydance with a naked sort of envy. It's not that he can't be distracted - he could - but he keeps looking back at them. Given his desire to fly, it's not hard to imagine why he's so fascinated and what he wishes for.
IV
While he does listen, Vader doesn't hesitate to take a magic lamp. Not just because of course he must prove himself, but also for the offered reward. He does wish his lenses still had their enhanced function in order to better see in the darkness. And it only takes a moment for him to cross the threshold into the cemetery to begin his 'test'.
