Waking up in an unfamiliar room on an unfamiliar bed, Jacen felt a momentary surge of panic. He tried to sit up, but he couldn’t; everything just hurt.
He closed his eyes to steady himself, breathing deeply against the pain. A few things began to come back — the massive solar storm, the coralcraft being torn apart, being forced into an escape pod by a travel companion he couldn’t put a face or name to. He remembered slipping into some sort of meditation, trying to find a semblance of peace even as he was hurtling through space, being pulled in all directions.
People had said that he and his siblings all had that charming, roguish look about them, courtesy of their father. But the years forced on him by the Vong during his captivity had hardened his features, bringing out that air of steely fierceness from his mother’s side of the family tree.
