Not everyone can be a hero. Astrid Dast knows that. All the same, she dreams of the day she can become one. Not everyone can be a hero. But Poe Dameron is. Upon discovering that Kylo Ren did not die during the Battle of Starkiller Base, Poe Dameron vows to find him and get revenge. If there was ever a chance for Astrid to become a hero, this is it.

Kylo Ren left one alive. Only one of Luke Skywalker's many apprentices. Entrusted to the newly appointed General Hux for transport, Anen Disra, the odd and enlightened young Jedi, will be the death or the salvation of the ever-growing First Order. But more than that, she will be the death or salvation of its newest General.
