Set after Ahsoka finds out the truth about Darth Vader
It took her her months to find out about that burned figure, taunt and black and broken, and now months later she wishes she had never started to uncover the truth: its so much better being kept in the dark. They've been saying that there is peace, the peace is here and yet war is here if you have the courage to look below the surface.

You will be alright
I know
There was a jedi once, he said, who when he was dying wanted to be carried back to Tattooine so that he could hear the wind and the desert and see the stars flickering above him.
When I was younger my friend used to say that she wanted to die amongst the stars.

She is...she was in the war.
You're in the war too.
She does not know anything about him, despite being his apprentice for just under a year now. She realises that there is a shyness in him and her which is made more evident by them being alone. Then, she is gone and he is gone, and as she looks at him one last time she realises that she does not really know anything more now then she did before.
