Episode #453 -- Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts

A speech is made across the galaxy as The High Republic -- Fear of the Jedi #5 (of 5) brings one part of the Battle of Eriadu to its final close, for now, as sacrifices are made and dear companions are lost yet remembered. In Jedi Knights #4, a trio of bounty hunters -- Aurra Sing, Zam Wessel and Bane Malar -- are in focus as they're tracked by Qui-Gon Jinn and Shaak-Ti, both of whom are seeking a greater, more valuable prize.
