Authors: Shayne and Carolyn
Summary: What might have happened had Luke returned to Tatooine after "Empire Strikes Back". An Alternate History.

Authors: Rackham Rose and Shoiryu
Summary: The kai-kan is a sacred drama. It is a way of connecting the lessons of the past to those with something to learn in the present, of distilling history into a medium those outside the Jedi Order can understand...
Notes: Brilliant concept, executed in a hauntingly gorgeous manner.
