Night of a Thousand Tears

The Siege of Mandalore rages on the surface. A young foundling fears for the man who rescued him. He's not ready for anyone to replace his parents, but his courage will be needed.

Who was the man that rescued Din Djarin?

Note: A glossary of mando'a words and phrases is found in part 2. But you'll be able to pick up most things from context.

Another note: This work is a fanfiction, and a result of my admiration for Star Wars, its characters and worlds that I've highlighted, and the work of their creators. The words of the title are not original, but come from a phrase used in The Mandalorian series. The character Atli is an original, and Darad is an imagined development of a so-far unnamed character that appeared briefly in The Mandalorian Season 1. Most of my use of the mando'a language was inspired by its use in Karen Traviss's Republic Commando series. The main image on the cover is not mine, but it's modified. It comes from The Mandalorian. This work is not for profit, just for enjoyment, speculation, and exploration.
