Fresh from a mostly successful raid on an Imperial dispatch station, our rebels are hunted by a patrol. Sabila comes face-to-face with a hunter determined to bring them down, Phaethon has their back, and Ossian has to demonstrate his mysterious powers to hold back an Imperial patrol - with a little help.
