I'm getting vibes that Deliah is going to die soon. How sad would it be if Jariah's actions end up indirectly causing her death? It looks like Jariah is going to be leaving Cade's company after this issue, and that Cade will probably joining the compnay of the Imperial Knights, and I really don't see how Deliah could fit into all this unless Cade decides to leave her behind at the secret Jedi temple.
Azlyn Rae remains an enigma, but I think her choice is coming soon. Unforunately, I think it might come in the form of having to defend her old master and the other Jedi against Jariah. Fitting if as Cade goes from the Jedi to the Imperial Knights, that Azlyn goes from the Imperial Knights back to the Jedi. I'm sure the council will end up rejecting Cade's assassination plan, with him deciding to ally with the Imperial Knights to get the job done.

The debate they're having about rescuing the Mon Cal reminds me of the debate that occurred in Destiny's Way when Ackbar presented his plan to fight the Vong. It basically said they'd go after the big targets, but not the small ones. They were weak at the moment and couldn't afford to commit themselves to many things and spread themselves thin. They would strike only when they absolutely had to.
At the same time, Nat was right about one thing. To do nothing to help the Mon Cal would be wrong. He's like Qui-Gon in that he's "living in the moment" and reacting in the moment as well.
I just thought of an ironic scenario that might happen in the next chapter. It's pretty obvious Syn's going to face off against Rasi Tuum. Whether he's the guy who killed Syn's father is unclear, but let's say he is. Cade and Deliah go looking for Syn and find him pointing the gun at Rasi Tuum. Syn spills the beans on why he hates the Jedi. Cade goes ahead and asks Syn, "Will killing him bring your father back?" Syn then spits back at him, "Well aren't you a hypocrite? Killing Krayt's not going to bring your daddy back, yet you're still hell-bent on revenge to get him! Just as I am to get revenge for my father!"

Wow, didn't even think of that, but you're right.
The difference is that Krayt is still killing and will keep on killing, such as the genocide of Mon Calamari. While Rasi Tuum is a Jedi, and I'm guessing Jariah's dad wasn't that nice and gave Rasi Tuum no choice but to kill him, though that is guessing.
But you're right, I think Cade wants to kill Krayt more out of revenge for his dad than the greater good, just like the situation with Jariah and Rasi Tuum.

I see it the other way, Blue is his pilot... that's enough to keep her around. Methinks Jariah gets his arse handed to him by Rasi Tuum... if not, he'll just get disarmed and lectured about his feelings.

Nat Skywalker is shooting up the list of my favorite characters. Unfortunately I think he's slated for an early death. I have the feeling that the Jariah/Rasi Tuum confrontation will end up with another character dying, either Nat or Deliah.

Well, maybe. But Legacy's not too big on character deaths (backstory doesn't count)

So far, anyways. I was getting death vibes during Nat's message to Droo last issue, and this preview is now doing the same for Deliah.

And that's why some characters are probably going to bite it soon. The cast needs a bit of a prune, especially now that a whole load of new Jedi are most likely going to be introduced. I don't think Nat'll snuff it, he's too new. I can see some characters dying in Vector and a whole load when/if this assassination attempt happens. That long haired IK I can see dying, as well as K'Kruhk and/or whatsherface that's the tree. Some of the Sith will go too. Talon and Maladi aren't long for this world I don't think. I can see Nihl trying to become the leader of the One Sith as well (wasn't he a Nagai warlord or something? Can't see why he would rather be a servant than the Master).

Cade might try to stop Jariah from killing Rasi Tuum, if Jariah even manages to get that far against a Jedi. Then again, he already knocked out one Jedi in the last issue, so maybe he will be able to kill Rasi Tuum. And Cade's not proposing to assasinate Krayt for the greater good, for the galaxy, or even to get revenge for his father. No, Cade wants to kill Krayt so that he can the Sith off his back. With Krayt dead, the Sith will probably have more important things to worry about then Cade Skywalker, like who gets the throne, so then Cade will finally be able to just skulk off to some corner and wait until everybody forgets his face.
And it does seem like a character might die soon. Though I'd hope Legacy wouldn't start killing that many characters, even with how huge the cast is, though a huge cast is understandable as they're setting up a brand new era and all that. I'm also kind of curious if anyone would be important enough that Cade would use his healing lightning trick to save them, like Uncle Nat might still be important enough to Cade to save him. Maybe.
And in terms of roles... Deliah serves as the Mynock's mechanic, so if they want to keep the ship running through all the damage its likely to take (being chased by pirates, bounty hunters, Sith, Imperial, etc.), she might be important. On the other hand, Cade knows the ship well enough to just fly it on his own too. And Bantha's a pretty good mechanic too. Although having two mechanics there kinda adds to the "Nat's going to die" thing. Though as Bantha said last issue, if Cade wants to disappear, to really, really disappear, he has to cut all ties to his known identity, maybe change his looks, but at the very least, get rid of his custom ship and his easily identifiable crew of two humans and a Zeltron. Although I have my oawn theories that with Deliah acting as a stablelizing influence on Cade, if they're going to have Cade get worse, they've got to get rid of her too eventually. But that depends on whether Cade goes up or down from here too.
And no, the Jedi don't seem like cowards to me. Even if they went back out there, at best they'd get slaughtered. Right now, they're just doing their best to rebuild their numbers to stop the Sith, but considering the odds, its going to take a lot of preparation.

The preview is awesome, in contrast to the cover (which looks like furries overload). I'm glad that they put effort into showing multiple sides of the issue, instead of portraying the Jedi Council as simply overcautious and stodgy and shortsighted.

I think the Jedi's problem is that Tra' Saa is still living in the clone wars and how things worked then, and I think that they also feel spurned by thr galaxy. The Sith are always moving forward while the Jedi seem to be playing catch up constantly.

I think what the council needs is ghost Luke and Kol showing up and telling them what to do. 
Or perhaps T'ra needs ghost Yoda.

I don't think so. Too much of him is still a mystery. Why did he leave the order? How did he meet Droo? Where did the other kids he adopt come from? How did Cade find him?
