( After finding Valin and Jysella, Ben and Jaina did try to go after Vestara, though there'd been another fight to be able to get to her. )

( For the third time in less than three years, Jaina was involved in overthrowing the Chief of State of the Galactic Alliance. It was getting old. )

( Stop number two on the Sith World Tour was probably going to be better than Korriban, but Jaina wasn't looking forward to it. And of course, as they got close enough that they could see Dromond Kaas from the Jade Shadow's viewport, an argument broke out again. )
