ComicBook has the exclusive lettered preview of Star Wars: The High Republic – The Finale #1 by Cavan Scott and Marika Cresta. It takes readers up into the atmosphere above Coruscant, where a fleet of starships are hovering above the golden city. Our narrator is Jedi Master Keeve Trennis, marshal to the Stormwall Defense Fleet. Keeve’s squad is returning after a successful victory at the Battle of Eriadu, defeating the Nihil. However, everyone on the ship is treating the win as if it’s a funeral.
One person who isn’t feeling somber is Lourna, who appears hostile towards Keeve Trennis. The reason for this is that Keeve pushed Lourna to be better than she was. Lourna took the winning shot against an enemy who was using their fears against them, but Keeve is feeling doubt that it was the right decision. Any other time, the Jedi would have tried to save the Nihil. But that’s something to worry about at another time. For now, Keeve has been summoned to the Jedi Temple, and she’s being joined by Sskeer.
Once they reach the Jedi Temple, Keeve is reunited with Terec and Ceret. The twins report that they had a successful mission taking out the Nameless, restoring peace to the galaxy. However, a cost was paid for this triumph, and while Terec and Ceret still have each other, it’s a cost that they will have to carry with them for the rest of their lives.
