Summary
“I-I need you do to something for me. I—” There’s a terrible wheeze and Bobby can almost see the man’s pinched face, desperately trying to smooth any indication of harm. “I need you to tell—”
“No.” Bobby says strongly into the radio, his eyes never wavering from the collapsed building. He feels himself losing it – he feels the same terrible ache snake in his spine then he did that night, smoke clouding his lungs. “No, firefighter, you’re not doing this. We’re clearing debris and we’ll—”
“Please?”
It’s small, almost childlike.
How could he ever deny a dying man’s request?

Summary
Months after Ezra Bridger vanished into the depths of the mysterious Jedi temple on Lothal, he reappears -- with Kanan Jarrus in tow. All Hera Syndulla and the other surviving members of the Ghost crew want is to retrieve their missing teammates, but a Jedi who can raise the dead is a prize too great for the Empire to pass up. Palpatine will do anything to get Ezra and the secrets he carries -- secrets that may allow the Emperor to control reality itself.

Summary
The melody gets a little clearer when he breaks out of the trees, and Jingyi changes course with certainty, barreling down the back hill and through the Cloud Recesses, dodging scandalized disciples left and right. He throws open the doors to the Receiving Hall without announcement and bows nearly double, eyes on the floor instead of on the shocked faces of the Mei delegation and the impenetrable gaze of the Chief Cultivator.
"Forgive this disciple," Jingyi shouts, because he's going to get punished for rule breaking regardless. "From the back hill, Hanguang-jun, there is a song in the wind!"
Lan Jingyi comes of age.

Summary
Prequel to the series, dealing with how the guys were captured and imprisoned by the Taliban for their year and a half, and how they wound up having to save themselves. Warning for future chapters: descriptions of violence inherent with being a POW for over a year by terrorists.
