The entire world is facing something we’ve never seen before in our lifetimes and never seen before like this in all of history. A virus is sweeping the globe, and while I know that some people prefer to keep real life out of their video games, this one is too big to ignore.

If you have contracted Covid-19, we wish you a speedy recovery, and if you’ve lost someone due to this pandemic, we offer our sincerest condolences. We recognize the scope of this pandemic and we know that our readers have been affected, and that many more may be before this is over.

Star Wars: Heir to the Empire – Chapter 3
It’s here! The next chapter. Here we have Chapter 3 of Heir to the Empire, by Timothy Zahn. Adapted into a short fan film, for your viewing pleasure. If you’re not familiar with this series, you need to go back and watch Chapters 1 and 2 before you watch this one. Trust me, it’s worth it. DarthAngelus has brought us something good in this series.

Chapter: 13 Lando paced in and out of the cockpit. Each time he came in, he looked at the holo-projection then turned and walked out again. Nein sighed as Lando came back in once again. There wasn’t anything that they could do until the padawans contacted them. Lando grumbled then turned to walk back out of the cockpit. BX began making noise and whistling. “What?” Lando said. Nein said something and pointed at the holo-projection. Lando looked at the Holoprojection. It zoomed in on a ship that was descending toward the city. “It can’t be,” he said and sat down in the pilot’s chair. BX whistled again. Nein looked at some other information on a different screen. He muttered something to Lando. “Well, poodoo,” he said. “Of all the luck to see them again.” The hologram turned as the ship sailed overhead. The words Star Dust clearly visible. “I think…

He grabbed hold of the frame and pulled himself out. “Don’t get that tone with me, Furball,” Rae snapped. He bared his teeth and held up a small device. “You were able to get the information?” she asked. He nodded and tucked the device into one of the pouches on his belt. Lowbacca paused as he pushed himself to his feet. He glanced to Rae and saw her frozen. He growled softly and she nodded. “I sense it to, Lowie. Someone’s coming.” She glanced over to him. “Where do we go?” He did not have to think about it. He knew the only way out was up. He pointed upward and growled.
