Summary
The Hail Mary has been shot out into the depths of the infinite void of space to search for an answer that may not even be there. Aboard, the three crew members lay in stasis as the ship hurtles like an arrow towards a distant star, with no hope of return, but a desperate hope to make things right.
At home, two brothers are left in sudden and violent grief. A woman grapples with whether or not she made the right decision. The world strains and suffers under the weight of the coming Fimbulwinter.
And then one of the beetles returns.
Thirteen years early.

Tamah qa brok vaversi, ji enoah qa mikodail orhma bika.
Outside it is cold, but we are all warm together here.
-A Jedi Saying, from Dai BenduAbruptly stranded on an unpopulated planet behind enemy lines, and poised to remain stuck there for the foreseeable future, Obi-wan Kenobi has a lot of time on his hands and a single connection to the outside world to speak with. Unfortunately, it only works one way. The rest of the galaxy gains an open line to the unfiltered thoughts of one of its most famous Jedi Masters.
