" finale "

Standing up from Kuiil's grave Lana felt her heavy heartbeat in her chest. Din placed a final rock to cover him up, resting Kuiil's helmet on one large stone to mark it.

Din offered her his hand, as they turned away from Kuiil's final resting place. "What do we do now?" She asks him.

When they walk to the open ramp of the Crest, Din finally gives her an answer. "I wanted to know if you would like to rest for a little in... Sorgan." His voice became softer as he said her home planet.

Lana dropped his hand laying down in the cot against the wall begging for some sleep. She rests her head on her forearm looking at Din and the child. Din pulls up a bucket from the side of the ship to sit beside her. "I know you didn't want to go back."

"Let's just do it. We can rest for a couple months, I can see Omera. We don't have to worry about people coming after us anymore. I know I said I wanted to get out of there, but it's an opportunity for us to raise the child even if it's just for a little bit."

Din nods, glancing to the child. "Sorgan it is. I'll go put in the coordinates and get us into hyperdrive. Then, I'll be back here." He stands up to leave the cargo hold of the ship.

After traveling for a few days, Din informed Lana they were almost to Sorgan.

She sat in her chair beside Din watching as the trees she grew up in once again came into her field of vision.

As the Crest landed, Lana felt excited they were finally going to stay somewhere for a couple months without having to pack up and leave every day or so.

She went down into the Cargo hold and packed her pack that she had brought with her the first time Din and her left Sorgan. Lana and Din had a few bags with them all that they could carry from the Crest before they made the short trek to Lana's home village. The baby followed in his floating cradle behind them recognizing the familiar woods around them.

As they arrived, they were greeted by the entire village knowing exactly who they were. Omera came from the back of the crowd, smiling and almost having tears of joy fall from her eyes. Lana dropped her things and ran to hug Omera. She felt the tightness of her arms wrap around her making her miss the way she hugged her like this.

"We've missed you dearly." Omera says pulling away. "We have a lot to catch up on." she says winking at Mando behind her.

"Get the speeder and let's get their things brought back." Omera directs Stoke and Caben.

A little while later, Omera and Lana are seated outside Omera's home on her porch. They're facing the beautiful sunset overlooking the village sipping from their cups. "That's a bit of a story. And you stuck around with him through all of that?" Omera asks after Lana explained the lengthy story of what occurred while she was gone.
