The story begins with a sense of suffocating dread. Grand Admiral Thrawn has finally cornered the rebel cell. Unlike previous encounters, there is no room for a narrow escape. Thrawn’s tactical genius has allowed him to decode the rebels' flight patterns and hidden bases. He launches a full-scale orbital bombardment of the rebel headquarters, forcing Ezra Bridger and Hera Syndulla into a desperate defensive position. ⚔️ The Jedi's Choice

Using his unique connection to all living things, Ezra calls upon the Purrgil —massive, space-faring whales capable of hyperspace travel.
