    Saw's throat worked with effort. His nostrils flared. He didn't reach for the oxygen mask. „You can stand to see the Imperial flag reign across the galaxy?” he asked.
    Jyn shrugged.
    She could have walked away then; turned her back on the shadow of the man she'd known, walked into the desert and called an end to her obligations.
    But Saw had hurt her.
    „It's not a problem if you don't look up,” she said.

Chapter 5

These were not the rebels Galen Erso had described: gallant men and women whose righteous hearts led them to oppose horrors Bodhi had seen, the deeds in which he'd been complicit. Instead, these were the rebels the Empire had always warned of: the murderers, the criminals and terrorists who concealed their viciousness in a patriotic wrapping. The ones who saw the deaths involved in spaceport bombings as a small cost for smaller victories.

„Hope?” She eyed Cassian dubiously. „Is that the best Rebel Intelligence can do?”
Cassian might as well have shrugged. „Rebellions are built on hope.”

Chapter 4

Even the leaders of the Rebellion rarely spoke about the Jedi. Had men like Chirrut been common? Men so certain in their faith that they wielded it like a shield? Men so disciplined that, even blind, they could down a dozen stormtroopers with nothing more than a stick?
How many people were alive to remember?

Chapter 5

Before the rise of the Empire, Cassian would have considered the Jedi his enemies. But he'd been young, too young to understand who he'd been fighting or who he'd been fighting for. Now the Separatists were as forgotten as their Jedi foes.

Chapter 5

As an organization, the Rebel Alliance was held together more by external pressure than by internal bonds. Mon Mothma's almost pathological need to make political overtures toward peace—regardless of their success—was a poor match for General Jan Dodonna's policy of covert strikes that minimized attention from the Empire and its Senate. Dodonna's approach, in turn, was incompatible with Bail Organa's desire to rapidly intervene wherever Imperial atrocities occurred. Saw Gerrera had effectively withdrawn from the Alliance over strategic disagreements; but there were other council members who shared his more aggressive agenda. If not for the Empire's overwhelming strength—if not for the need for the rebels to work together to even survive—the Alliance would have fractured in a matter of months.

Chapter 9

Was this hope? Facing fear after fear, for oneself and for friends and for the galaxy, all out of some desperate need to accomplish the impossible?
Maybe, Jyn thought, she's been better off without it.

Chapter 15

    Cassian frowned in thought and seemed to process the words.
    „Could be my associate was wrong,” he said. „Could be it's one of Saw's people arranging the attack without oversight from Saw himself. Or it could be Saw thinks the Empire is vulnerable right now – distracted by the search or something else we don't know about. Regardless, we have to hurry. This town – it's ready to blow.”

Chapter 4

Jyn knew the sounds of occupation well. They were the sounds of home.
