It was night on Coruscant now. Kane and I were still in the courtyard. We've spent the last few hours catching up. We were sharing our stories, our emotions, our pain. It felt so good to talk to him again. After so long, that hole in my heart has finally been filled. "Look at the stars," I said as I pointed up at the glistening stars above our heads. "Look how they shine for you."
"They're shining extra bright tonight," Kane mentioned. "Almost as if they too share the happiness that I've felt ever since I've reunited with you."
"I just wish that every day could feel like this," I said. "However, we have yet another war approaching. A war that will determine the fate of the Galaxy."

Now that I have him back, I am once again the happiest man in the Galaxy. The storm that is coming our way will shake the very foundation of our Republic. But it will not break it. It will persevere through whatever is thrown at it. Vinera thinks her power, her rage, and Darkness will be enough to destroy it. But she is underestimating one thing, something that is more powerful than she could ever be. Hope...
