Lathian Uprising

Twilight on a rocky planet. Fires flicker in numerous places, the wreckage of skimmers blasted from the air.

Weary men in combat armor group around the fires cleaning weapons, drinking, gambling... waiting.

A litter of bodies in twisted poses of violent death. A man stripping weapons from the dead.

Flashes of light in the sky, an air battle still going on.

A man sits by himself tiredly whetting his knife, staring vacantly into the night. His eyes are filled with a smiling woman.
