-:- Ashes to ashes, embers to flames, she walks another path with another name -:- The Republic Senate is in uproar. As an act of protest against rising taxes on the travel of their hyperspace routes, the Trade Federation has set up a blockade around the planet Onderon, denying any ship the right to land or depart. King Ramses Dendup, the head of the elected planetary monarchy, has no choice but to prepare for the worst: invasion. When the Trade Federation finally strikes, the royal family is forced into hiding, leaving the fate of their world resting in the hands of two Jedi Knights, a handful of surprising allies and the one person who could sign a Trade Federation treaty that would undo everything the Onderonian people has ever built. The Senator for a planet made affluent by many profitable ventures in commerce. A young mechanic with an explosive past from a distant world. The remarkable convergence of circumstances that brought them together could pull them closer in ways that neither of them could ever have expected... or deadly secrets could form an irreparable tear in the fabric of everything they've ever known. Read on and delve into the twists and turns of an old tale -- some well-known and some new -- remastered and retold from a fresh perspective. RATED FOR LANGUAGE AND SOME DARK THEMES. -:-:-:-:-:- Cover art: @Linekotsi on DeviantArt

From an ember came a spark. From that spark came a flame. And from that flame came unquenchable fire, burning across the galaxy. Hope is ablaze, and dissidence is springing up everywhere from Core to the Outer Rim. But there are those who would seek to put it out for good: namely the agents of the Dark Side behind the government of the Empire and their disciples. After the demise of the Imperial agent know only as The Inquisitor, the title of leader of the sinister Inquisitorius must be passed on to the most powerful of those under its jurisdiction spread across the galaxy. As a power vacuum opens, a new Grand Inquisitor rises from the shadows of obscurity she has lived in for most of her adult life. The rebels aboard the Ghost, as well as the informant Fulcrum, whose true motives are shrouded in mystery, will be hard-pressed to escape the evil that awaits them under the form of Darth Vader and his deadly protégé, the new Grand Inquisitor. But all is not as it seems. Fulcrum and Inquisitor Sorena have a past that would best kept under wraps in these troubled times, but devastating secrets will come to light when a mission to rescue an Imperial defector goes horribly wrong... Sorena's wings of fire unfurl more and more with ever step she takes, and soon she will be forced to make the uncertain jump over the edge of everything she's ever known. And she will find the strength to fly... Or she will fall so far that all hopes for redemption will be lost forever. -:-:-:-:-:- RATED MATURE FOR STRONG LANGUAGE AND SOME SUGGESTIVE THEMES. DISCLAIMER: I do not own Star Wars Rebels (except in my head). The reason you can be sure of this is that Luxsoka has not yet been declared canon and there aren't more Anidala books on the market. Also, THIS IS NOT A SEQUEL TO UAAT. I understand there could be some confusion and if you look at it the right way it could, but UAAT is a series all to its own :)

Angie always kept herself busy with new things, trying to widen her horizons and learn new things, while Technoblade is comfortable living his simple and orderly life. They both had incredible minds, but used them in the complete opposite ways. If they hadn't met on that one fateful day then they would have been fine with that fact, but love can really open people's eyes.

PHANTASM SERIES BOOK 1 --- Tacenda; pl (plural only): Things that are not to be spoken about or made public. Things that are best left unsaid. --- He was unlike anyone else you had seen before. There was a certain confidence about him that drew everyone's eye. His hair was tied back into a messy plait, but it was the color that was the most striking, a bright pink that contrasted the dark red and black of his robes. His face was mostly obscured by the mask of his people, but you could just make out the shape of his jaw and a flash of sharp teeth when he smiled. He was dangerous - but he was magnetic.

You were one of the first people to arrive in the piano room - probably because your form room had been so close by. The room was empty when you walked in, so you just made your way to the back of the room, sitting down at one of the pianos near the window. There were no desks in the room besides for the teacher, only keyboards lined up in rows facing the front of the room. You set your books down under the piano, not knowing where else to put them, and sat down, fiddling with the hem of your shirt in your hands as you waited. You would have much preferred for at least the teacher to be in the room - sitting by yourself was not really what you wanted to be doing. You turned your attention to the window in the room, absently watching a couple of songbirds dart in an out of a small shrub while you waited. Hopefully someone else would get here soon and it wouldn't be so stiflingly silent- "Oh. Hello." Your head snapped back to the front of the room to see a boy standing there, hovering awkwardly just inside the door. He was rather short, and his arms wrapped around his books in a hug. You wouldn't have noticed him in the hallway if you had passed him - his height combined with brown hair and brown eyes made him the sort of person that would just blend in to a crowd. He didn't look particularly mean though, so you just tried for a smile. "That's my seat." He said, still hovering by the door.
