Plot summary[]
On Garos IV, the once small Imperial garrison has grown massive around the mining center next to the capital Ariana. While monitoring scout patrols around the Imperial base, the Garos underground realises that one of their hidden weapon caches has been discovered. Needing every weapon they can get, Alexandra Winger devises a plan to relocate a Plex missile launcher that has yet to be found.
With the help of undercover agent Lieutenant Dair Haslip, they test the response time of the scout patrols. The two pose as a couple seeking privacy, and wander into a restricted area of the Winger property. That night, using her new information, Alex successfully moves the missile launcher.
The next day, Haslip learns that a systems control unit will be transported with only two squads to protect it. The underground sees this as the perfect opportunity for an ambush. They use the Plex to destroy the two AT-STs and the convoy they were guarding. On the way back, Alex has a vision of a sandy-haired, blue-eyed man helping her.
