WARNING: Late Arrival Spoilers abound for Skyward.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Starsight is the sequel to Skyward by Brandon Sanderson.Following the revelations and strategic re-organization of Skyward, humanity has begun making progress against the Krell. They have reclaimed the closest orbital platforms around their planet, pilot life expectancy is way up, and they are working on repairing their defenses. But the Krell are not sitting idly by. They are fielding more drone ships, more aces, and even battlecruisers—though they can't get close enough yet.Then a new alien starfighter appears and crashes onto the planet.Alanik of the UrDail is from a species that was once allied with humanity, and is now trying to join the Superiority, the ones keeping humans imprisoned. Alanik heard Spensa's cytonic cry and came to investigate. Before she passes out from her wounds, she gives Spensa the location of Starsight, a space station Alanik was traveling to in order to join the Superiority military. Thinking fast, Spensa decides to use M-Bot's holograms to pretend to be Alanik, infiltrate the Superiority, and steal a non-cytonic hyperdrive so that her people may finally escape Detritus.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The book is followed by Cytonic by Brandon Sanderson. | |

A Form You Are Comfortable With | |
| Starsight / int_106f1a77 | comment |
A Form You Are Comfortable With: Played with. The delvers Spensa sees manifest as versions of Spensa herself only with scary glowing eyes. They are just reflecting her own thoughts back at her. They aren't aware what they look like to her, or even that she's sentient. | |

Bizarre Alien Biology | |
| Starsight / int_1161fb48 | comment |
Bizarre Alien Biology: Played with in regards to the UrDail. M-Bot hacks Alanik's computers and determines that they're not that different from humans; they prefer slightly different concentrations of breathable air, have slightly different dietary requirements, and their basic vital signs are a little different, but nothing too surprising. The human doctors, on the other hand, don't have that context because M-Bot didn't give them access to Alanik's computers before he left. All they can say about Alanik is that they are pretty sure she's not currently dying. | |

Fusion Dance | |
| Starsight / int_302730a | comment |
The diones are even weirder (by human standards) being left or right instead of male or female and mating via Fusion Dance. | |

All Myths Are True | |
| Starsight / int_776a06eb | comment |
All Myths Are True: The kitsen inspired the myths of kitsune on Earth; apparently humans and kitsen used pre-technology cytonics to travel between their worlds thousands of years ago. For some reason, all the cytonic kitsen left, leaving the rest trapped on their planet. | |

Bizarre Alien Sexes | |
| Starsight / int_e1836adf | comment |
Bizarre Alien Sexes: M-Bot mentions that varvax genders are "complex," but doesn't go into much more detail. Winzik is close enough to male that "he" is the appropriate pronoun for him.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |
