Awesome post, JPS! I loved Jaina's raw emotion... the way she's not quite aware of just how far she is falling, how fast... and there was quite a bit of foreshadowing to the dark future on her horizon, he he- I like, I like devil

Don't ask me why, but this one paragraph just made me get all weepy-eyed... poor Jaina! cry

If it was the last thing she ever did, Jaina was going to see to it that every single Yuuzhan Vong in existence understood the kind of heart-wrenching, unbearable pain that they had inflicted on her, the kind of pain that you couldn't go on with, that made you desperate for release that was always just beyond the reach of your fingertips.

Wow, made me feel horrible for Jaina and yet gave me the shivers at the same time... dark times are approaching, me thinks. He he, and it was also nice to get a glimpse into Jaina's obsession with destroying the Vong- be afraid Tsavong, be very afraid devil tongue

Wow, that was very moving... I wish they'd done more introspective bits in DJ, it would have been nice to really see just how lost and unbalanced Jaina was without her brothers. IMO, that's why she is never the same, throughout the rest of the series even when Jacen returns. Take out one of the three, and the other two are can't go back to what they were sad

Beautiful depiction of Jaina's anguish, can't imagine how terrible those weeks on Hapes had to be for her, thinking both of her brothers were dead... no wonder she ran about frying people with Force lightning, eh? tongue wink

Very nice post- poor Jaina, but I am hoping we get to see emotion of some kind at the funeral since Elaine Cummings jipped us on that aspect! tongue Keep this story going, it's really good so far grin

This looks very promising- I love the way you worked your way into both Kyp and Jaina's psyches. Is there a new post coming soon?
