Author's Note: Any of you see The Last Jedi yet? I'm hearing a mix of good and bad things about it. Here's hoping it's more than just a rehash of Empire Strikes Back...


Scipio's Log: Entry 155 - A most frightful encounter

"When Count Dooku took us to Serenno, I had very little idea of what to expect. But what took place on that world, suffice to say, was perhaps the most harrowing thing I have ever witnessed. I have been sworn to secrecy, so I cannot elaborate on everything that happened, especially not within one of my logs that are apparently so widely read by fellow scientists.

"But I have to say, to see my creation endure so much, to see The Wraith pushed to his absolute limit... I had my doubts more than once about his survival. But it appeared he managed to prevail, thinking his way through the situation rather than trying to strong-arm his way out of it.

"In the end I'm not quite sure what to make of it all. Was it a test? A show of force? A lesson in discipline? A short, sharp reminder as to who's in charge? The answer may forever elude me. But I do know this: if any one ever doubted Wraith's capacity or his unrelenting loyalty to the Separatist cause, this instance shall prove once and for all that he is one of us.

"There has never been a more staunch ally of the CIS. Wraith will never turn against us."
