Jan_Duursema posted:Since when it is bad to steal from the bad guys? And if someone serves the Sith Empire they are the bad guys. The Imperial Captain or his crew could have chosen to follow Roan Fel when the Sith took over, but they chose to stay and serve the Sith. Can't blame them, I suppose--their jobs didn't really change under Sith rule. Still got fair credits for their jobs. Maybe they even got a raise. They could have taken their cargo to Roan Fel or Gar Stazi, but their choice was to be good little Imperial cogs and do exactly what their Sith masters have told them to do to keep the great Sith Imperial war machine running.

But they aren´t having fun. You can notice that both Jariah and Deliah are going through the motions, distressed over the fact that Cade is withdrawing more and more into himself.

Zorrixor posted:Finally read the issue myself... I see that it is actually Nyna wanting to go to Korriban, not Veed as someone mentioned--he's just having a private audience with Wyyrlok, presumably the reaction to Wyyrlok's earlier line about returning to Coruscant to "secure the throne". Securing the throne... and private audience with Veed... that says all I need to know. This way around though, with Nyna wanting to go to Korriban--which I guess she may do under the Morrigan alias, maybe even with Cade in tow--will likely mean that by the time she confirms Krayt is dead it'll be too late, and Veed will probably have been brainwashed and installed as a puppet Emperor, who won't want anything to do with a traitor to the Sith. There also felt to be a lot of distinct foreshadowing of why appointing Veed would be a sensible move, with all the discussion of how the Sith need the military, and yet unrest is starting to spread through the ranks with rumours of Krayt's demise. Giving the top job to one of their own would shut them up. Having read it, I would agree though with the feeling that Cade doesn't seem quite as grouchy this issue. He's very much in the mindset I suggested a few posts back, the naive "Krayt's dead. I can do whatever I want!" attitude... which is a level of overconfidence destined to be set up just so it can be brought crashing back down again. I get a possible "Enter Act 2" feeling, with a lot of the Cade/Deliah/Jariah scene being like the reintroduction of the cast at the start of the next Episode. Ditto with the explicit summary of who Gunner is again. It all conveys a "This is where you can jump in for Part 2" feeling. Conveniently enough, there also is quite a ESB feel with how the Mynock was portrayed as a broken hunk of junk badly in need of repair, rather like the usual state of the Falcon. I'm left baffled though how Gunner can't recognise her own mother as Morrigan... I increasingly think there's more to Morrigan than the story has let on. The gripe about how Nyna has no Sith spies to call on was noticeable too... unless we're going to see her in her Sith getup again; either that or Cade's going to be the one to dress up this time. Regardless, Nyna's spy gear though apparently seems to be more than just a wig though. It's funny really given how Gunner looks exactly like a young Morrigan. Which probably means I should actually be saying that her Moff gear apparently seems to be more than just hair dye.

Master_Keralys posted: Cade's still whining and off doing his own thing - not least because, Azlyn aside, he feels he made the right decision and that the outcome supports him. Krayt is dead, but we haven't seen any consequences for the Sith or the rest of the universe yet. The Jedi are still sitting back on their haunches. The alliance between the GA and the Empire is still barely extant. And so on.

There definitely is-- both Corde and Calixte are disguises. Her true self? Nei Rin. Wouldn't be surprised. I'm pretty certain she uses a masquer already. (What if Morrigan isn't Nyna, but has assumed her identity?) Oh man, my Nyna/Morrigan love went up this issue.... I half hope she's a Banite Sith just so she can bring Wyyrlok - and the rest of the galaxy - to heel. Though it'd be even cooler if she did that just as she is.
beccatoria posted:I would be okay with Morrigan having assumed Nyna's identity via a masquer (though I do like the idea that she just does it all really well with make-up). As long as they don't then use that to say that she's not really Gunner's mom, she just took her place. Cus I'm terribly attached to Gunner being Cade's sister. That was an awesome sub-reveal of the awesome Morrigan/Nyna reveal and I'd hate to see it retconned. Not that I particularly think it will be. I'm just sayin'.
beccatoria posted: I'm also totally torn on the Banite Sith thing. On the one hand TRIPLE GODDESS. On the other, YET MORE AWESOME. On the third, it's also kind of nice to have awesome non-Force Sensitives around and I don't think she needs to be a Banite Sith. Maybe we'll...actually find out some more soon? *crosses fingers*
Beccatoria posted: (Plus I still REALLY want to know who Marasiah's mom is/was. I don't...particularly think it was Morrigan but she's yet another child of privilege left to be raised by her father and follow in his footsteps, with no mom on the scene. Which is a pattern.)
Zorrixor posted:Masquer?! Uli, you sir are a genius. Remember that shower scene? The one where everyone was talking about how there was some sort of odd line across Nyna's legs like she'd still got her clothes on in the shower?
Zorrixor posted: I think you've just struck the jackpot with that theory. I'm certainly in.
Zorrixor posted: It'd make a lot of sense, at least. After the close up head shot (that was very wonderfully drawn) of Gunner in this issue, I'm convinced Morrigan is her true face, as it just gave me "Brianna/Kreia" jitters with how the pair of them (Gunner and Morrigan) have similar hair, eyes, and faces (well, Nyna has the eyes; Morrigan has the hair/face). Which actually leaves me thinking there may indeed yet be a third blonde, blue eyed persona. Though, Cade is green eyed, so it's actually a little hard to decide which of the eyes are the real ones.
Zorrixor posted: Thinking about her and Veed's "You don't have a Sith to call on?" discussion about how to get into Korriban, that leaves me thinking one of two things: (i) her Sith outfit was more than just an outfit; (ii) without a Force-user to call on, she's going to enlist Cade, paint him red, and point him towards Korriban as her infiltrator.
Zorrixor posted: ...which adds to my feelings that, assuming Veed becomes Emperor, there is no possible way Veed is living through this without being totally psychically assaulted and brainwashed. Wyyrlok does not strike me as the sort who would just gamble with Veed, a known hothead, in the hopes that by making him Emperor it'll appease him. I'm pretty sure Wyyrlok would know doing that would doom the Sith Order, given if Veed withdrew the fleet's support that'd be the Sith done. Hence why I'm fully expecting Veed to be the victim of one mammoth mind wipe.
Ulicus posted:Indeed. Maybe this series is actually about the legacy of Morrigan?

I actually think Gunn looks very much like Yage. Much as I love the idea that she's actually Kol's kid. Doesn't Yage have blue eyes?

Heh. It'd be interesting if that Sith identity was a longstanding one.
