Aftermath: Life Debt | comment |
The Emperor is dead, and the remnants of his former Empire are in retreat. As the New Republic fights to restore a lasting peace to the galaxy, some dare to imagine new beginnings and new destinies. For Han Solo, that means settling his last outstanding debt, by helping Chewbacca liberate the Wookiee's homeworld of Kashyyyk.Meanwhile, Norra Wexley and her band of Imperial hunters pursue Grand Admiral Rae Sloane and the Empire's remaining leadership across the galaxy. Even as more and more officers are brought to justice, Sloane continues to elude the New Republic, and Norra fears Sloane may be searching for a means to save the crumbling Empire from oblivion. But the hunt for Sloane is cut short when Norra receives an urgent request from Princess Leia Organa. The attempt to liberate Kashyyyk has carried Han Solo, Chewbacca and a band of smugglers into an ambush resulting in Chewie's capture and Han s disappearance.Breaking away from their official mission and racing toward the "Millennium Falcon"'s last known location, Norra and her crew prepare for any challenge that stands between them and their missing comrades. But they can't anticipate the true depth of the danger that awaits them or the ruthlessness of the enemy drawing them into his crosshairs.Life Debt is the second novel in the Star Wars Expanded Universe's Aftermath trilogy by Chuck Wendig, taking place a few short months after the Battle of Akiva in Star Wars: Aftermath. Norra Wexley and her band of rebels are busy hunting down high-ranking Imperials with Admiral Rae Sloane at the top of their list. Sloane, increasingly wary of her commanding officer - the mysterious Fleet Admiral - desperately searches for a means to save the crumbling Empire from oblivion. Meanwhile, out in the Unknown Regions and the Outer Rim secret plans are being made and the foundation being laid for the Empire's rebirth as the First Order.It is followed by Aftermath: Empire's End. | |

The Rival: Grand General Kenner Loring and Fleet Admiral Gallus Rax have a feud going over who should lead the Empire post-Endor. Loring has control over most of the Imperial Army while Rax has control over most of the Imperial Navy. Rax is also systematically eliminating any fleet officers he believes could side with Loring. | |

Dragon Ascendant: After the deaths of Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader, many Imperial officers are vying for control of what is left of the Empire. By the start of Life Debt, power in the Empire has been concentrated in two rival figures, Fleet Admiral Gallius Rax and Grand General Kenner Loring. Rax emerges as the de facto leader of the Imperial Remnant by the end of the book. | |

Beard of Barbarism: This has become a common style among the officers of the Imperial Military's Kashyyyk Garrison. It started when Grand Moff Tolruck grew out a wild beard because he considered Kashyyyk to be a wild place and a sizable chunk of the garrison followed their commander's example. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Kashyyyk is liberated from Imperial control, and the Wexley's are finally reunited as a family after the family patriarch, Brentin, has spent an untold number of years as a prisoner in Ashmead's Lock as a living battery for the prison, BUT it was all part of Fleet Admiral Gallius Rax's Evil Plan to cripple or damage the fledgling New Republic by using the newly freed prisoners as Manchurian Agents to assassinate several of their key political & military leaders, whilst also solidifying his own control over what's left of the Galactic Empire, which results in Chancellor Mon Mothma being wounded, former Imperial General (and rival) Jylia Shale being murdered, & the escape of Yupe Tashu from New Republic custody, with everything pointing toward Grand Admiral Rae Sloane as the architect behind the atrocity, and it worked thanks to Adea.

It's now in pirate hands. Mas Amedda dismisses the rumor that Palpatine is alive and using droids to deliver messages instructing the Imperial military to attack certain star systems.

Aftermath: Life Debt / int_bf4a990 | comment |
Despotism Justifies the Means: Rax wants a more efficient, more streamlined and more ruthless Empire. And he ain't too picky about how he makes it a reality. | |

Yank the Dog's Chain: For a little while, it looks like Temmin will be reunited with his dad and the Wexleys will be one big happy family again. Too bad Rax had other plans. | |

We ARE Struggling Together: On the Imperial side, Sloane doesn't trust Rax, for more reasons than one, and Rax is fully aware of this. | |

Aftermath: Life Debt / int_d839c530 | comment |
The Unfettered: Rax will do anything to win and dominate; there's no tactic or strategy for him that's too cruel or under-handed. He even orchestrates an attack under the cover of peace talks. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: More than a few high-ranking Imperials decided to cut their losses and run after the Battle of Endor. The team gets sent after one such ex-Imperial, Vice Admiral Perwin Gedde. | |

Aftermath: Life Debt / int_db38d6ca | comment |
Torture Technician: Sinjir was trained in how to inflict pain on fellow humans, having been specifically taught of all the points on the body which will maximize this. When torturing an alien, he has to improvise. This is something he hates doing though. | |

Manchurian Agent | |
Aftermath: Life Debt / int_e070ebe6 | comment |
Manchurian Agent: Using the same sleeper technology that was used on the clones for Order 66, the Empire makes several prisoners including Brentin Wexley in an attempt to kill Mon Mothma when they get rescued. It fails, though several politicians and officers are killed by the agents as well. General Madine might be among the casualties. Maybe. | |

Call-Forward: Rax makes sure that Brendol Hux takes his young son, Armitage, with him when he evacuates to the Unknown Regions. BB droid units were made as comfort pets for Rebel veterans with PTSD. It's apparently a better choice than 'therapy ewoks', whatever those are. Sinjir announces to his disbelieving conspirators that Leia is pregnant. | |

Canon Immigrant | |
Aftermath: Life Debt / int_fc7c4f92 | comment |
Canon Immigrant: Phantom Squadron was a one-off group from the Legacy Roleplaying Campaign, made in the image of Wraith Squadron from the X-Wing series. Like in Legends, Phantom Squadron is made up of washouts and misfits, but they replace Wraith Squadron's place in the new canon, since the Wraiths don't exist here. | |

At the same time, Rax also orders the deaths of several corrupt and brutal high-ranking Imperials, like Perwin Gedde, in order to cement his control over the Imperial Remnant. | |
