They’d told him the mission to Scariff was a success, that the Death Star had been obliterated. And then they’d told him that Vader had been instrumental in bringing down the Emperor, in destroying a second planet killer. And then they’d had some measure of peace, trying to rebuilt to Republic. And then the First Order had risen from the ashes of the Empire.
And they told him that he’d been asleep, frozen, for all of it. And if he hadn’t been frozen he would’ve been dead. And Jyn. Jyn. He’d been asking to see her, but kept being told that she was still recovering. At the very least, the lightsaber he’d carried since he was ten. He supposed he had Draven to thank for that, though he knew the General had long since joined the Force.
Then he felt her. A measure of the tension in his shoulders relaxed, having not quite believed this new Resistance when they told him she would be fine.
“We die for one Rebellion, and they just bring us back for another one.”
