One year after the Ferrix uprising, Cassian impersonates an Imperial test pilot in order to steal a prototype of a new Imperial ship, the TIE Avenger. When he attempts delivery on a jungle planet, he is ambushed by a rogue band of squabbling guerillas, the Maya Pei Brigade. On the agricultural planet Mina-Rau, Bix, Brasso, Wilmon, and B2EMO fear detection by the Empire while in the undocumented employ of a local farmer; Bix suffers from PTSD caused by Gorst's torture. On Chandrila, Mon Mothma prepares for her daughter's arranged marriage but is informed by Tay Kolma that his financial investments have turned sour as a result of their dealings and implies he is considering selling her out to the Empire. Vel Sartha asks Luthen for information regarding the whereabouts of her partner and fellow rebel Cinta Kaz, but he claims to have no knowledge. Orson Krennic oversees a secret meeting of Imperial officers about forcibly mining the resources of the planet Ghorman due to its heavy concentration of a rare mineral, an initiative to which Dedra Meero is reluctantly assigned. The conflict between the Maya Pei insurgents reaches boiling point, and several members are shot and killed as Cassian is taken hostage.
