1. I think that Nyriss' stories about the Emperor are pretty frightening. The idea of a Sith ritual that can wipe out an entire planet's living creatures to yield power to be consumed by one person is Death Star levels of nasty. I also suspect that Nyriss and others would happily do the exact same thing, given access to the rituals. I think this is one area where Nyriss will have told Scourge the truth if there's no good reason not to, but equally, that there's no way she'll give up her real intentions or plans.
2. I think Mandalore the Preserver is a more optimistic title that many other choices, but I think that Canderous becoming Mandalore has to prompt changes in his relationship with Revan. I don't think it would be possible for Canderous to be a good leader for the Mandalorians and at the same time continue to have a close friendship with Revan. I also want to see the fallout from Vella's death, and the impact on the Ordo given that the best warriors in the Clan were the ones on this mission, with the exception of the one guy who got left behind at the camp.
3. I'm wondering if the Emperor will learn of Revan's capture, and demand that Revan be handed over to him. I'm also wondering if perhaps Scourge is going to be involved in unlocking Revan's memories, resulting in Revan going into Dark Jedi mode.
4. The book is moving at a steady pace for me, but I'm a bit nonplussed that the Jedi had the ability to wipe Revan's memory at this point in time. I can only guess that it didn't work, because if it did work, it would surely have been used at various points in the future.
