Fire and Thunder

Metaphysical / Paranormal event

The legendary Jedi Masters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda have returned to the Rebel Alliance, with dire warnings about the fate of Master Anakin Skywalker and his plan to confront the Emperor. Little does the Alliance or Master Skywalker know that Emperor Palpatine, still obsessed with Master Skywalker, has enacted a plan of his own. If allowed to succeed, this plan would bring the end of Master Skywalker and give rise to new weapons and allies for the Galactic Empire. All hope rests on the success of a small band set on rescuing the unsuspecting Jedi Master in a lonely corner of the galaxy....

During a previous mission, we discovered that Jedi Master Anakin Skywalker has been blocked by the Dark Side from sensing his wife and children, and believes them dead; and he has been harried into a not-so-ideal plan to confront Darth Sidious directly. Lady Skywalker hand-writes orders that her husband is to be found and brought home, and she sends Vanya and her friends to go fulfill these orders.

There's always a complication, and this one is an Imperial ship that floats above a gas giant, seemingly dead in space, after having apparently wiped out its own escort. The ship is crawling with Reavers, thanks to Project Whirlwind.

It is not only an object of interest to the Mismatch's passengers, either.

As long as you can be drunk at the end, that's what matters.
