    Summary

    The Force sends him back to Mapuzo, and Mapuzo sends him to Tatooine.

    It would have been nice to have a little more to go on, of course. All he’d gotten from the walls of the safehouse was a jumbled mess of images, almost buried beneath the fierce rush of joyreliefwonderQuinlan that nearly brought him to his knees—heat, suns in a piercing sky, the rough taste of sand in his throat.

    Trust Obi-Wan to be as difficult as possible.

    Or, Quinlan locates Obi-Wan on Tatooine.

    Summary

    King Laurent said, "There is a child."

    "I see!" said Charls, who didn't.

    "His family are unable to care for him. He was brought here by my late uncle," King Laurent said. "I would appreciate it if you would take him on as an apprentice."

    Summary

    Nicaise’s beauty does not survive into adulthood.

    There are freckles on his face, his shoulders, his arms, left-overs from long summers during which the sun on the white cliffs of Ios has scorched his skin. There is a scar, small but noticeable, on his chin, from the time he tripped over his own feet and fell, smearing his blood on the rocks. His nose was broken in a fight when he was seventeen, and has never quite set right.

    He grows tall, and lean and swift as a whip, muscles wiry and marks on his knuckles from years of sparring. Nothing is left of the boy he once was, terrified of a scraped knee because it would mar his looks and invite displeasure - he likes it better this way, he finds.
