Messages in the Pulse
She had been alone for so long that even the hint of someone else who knew a similar agony made her want to share it, to see if recognition could somehow help spread the burden for them both. But that was impossible, just the silly dream of a child who should’ve died with her mother thirteen years ago on Lah’mu’s black shores. Joreth Sward was an Imperial soldier - sad eyes or no, he'd execute her the moment Krennic gave the order. Jyn Erso had always been completely alone on the most populated planet in the Galaxy, and that would never change. ... Where Jyn Erso is raised on Coruscant by the Empire, but has never forgotten what they did to her family. Unfortunately her new driver and bodyguard, Joreth Sward, is presenting a major complication.

Merry New Year and Happy RCSS, @jynstandor, it's me, your RCSS gifter!
Just wanted to say I had a great time writing this based on your prompts of Imperial Jyn / winter setting. Your requests were the inspiration for the longest story I've written in a very long time, so thank you so much, and I've really enjoyed our interactions and getting to know you over this RCSS!
I hope you like this story as much as I enjoyed writing it!
