1. Not going to lie, I feared for the Chancellor's cats there for a bit. There was a bit more death and violence than I was expecting - but I'm glad to see most of the Jedi we knew have survived so far, that Bell still has his charhound, and that Ty made it.
The Torguta fleet showing up was a nice surprise!

2. I'm glad the author made clear there was no romantic possibility (Ty said he wasn't her type) so that the focus could solely be on another platonic sort of bond. I am having hopes here, but don't want to set them too high.

3. It was so hard to STOP and not continue reading to see if she truly died or not (the wording at the very end of the chapter was slightly vague).
We know the Republic itself doesn't fail at this stage, so what happens if she lives vs. if she dies?
If she dies, would that other politician be a logical choice to lead?
If she lives, the raid was destructive but unsuccessful. I guess it could technically be successful even with her death as between the Torguta and the media, it could serve to unite people.
