More fighting to get to Goth Sullus and Admiral Devers. Rechs detonates a nuke to try and make a last ditch effort to save himself.

Keel comes up with a plan to kill Admiral Devers for his past transgressions against his legionnaire brothers. The combined crews besiege the Siren of Titan to try and trap Goth Sullus but it appears he’s slipped out of the noose and has set his own trap for the squad.

Big fight

The two crews led by Rechs and Keel finally meet on Andalore. After a tense stand off, Rechs hires Keel to join him to kill Goth Sullus for an absurd amount of money.

Rechs and the crew of the Crow get tractor beamed into the wrecked Dreadnought that is the rebel base they are looking for and quietly make a scene. They end up making an evasively worded deal with Captain Gex to kill another rebel on board to become the new rebel leader in a way.

Captain Keel and the crew of the Indelible land at Mother Ree’s sanctuary hot on the trail of Rechs and loudly make a scene.

Some deeper character work done on Rechs struggling with his past, some parts are good, some parts are kinda clunky.

We get introduced to a very cool snow planet sanctuary centred around an intriguing new character, Mother Ree/Mara. We also finally get the gaps filled with how and why Rechs and Keel have found themselves where they are now.

The backstory behind Prisma and the days leading up to her father’s demise are revealed. Hints at wider universe lore to perhaps be handled in other entries of the series are given.

The story is beginning to come together with the introduction of Garret and Aldo Kimer. It’s now clear how the crews headed by Rechs and Keel are going to be linked. Now it’s just time to see how the two groups find each other and on what terms.

We begin to see how far the Republic has fallen (or at least how much it has changed) since “the good old days”. Hoping the Prisma and Rechs relationship doesn’t turn into a cliché “found father saves daughter, but really she’s the one that saved him”
