Once.

This is how all fairy tales begin.

Once, there were Jedi.

Once, there were Mandalorians.

Once, there was the Republic.

Once, there wasn't the tyranny of the Empire.

Always with a Once...

This story also begins with a Once.

In the Imperial Academy on Mandalore during the middling years of the war between the Empire and the Rebellion, on an information mission run by the members of the Cularin Safe World that ends with one being separated from them and having to fend for herself in a situation turning increasingly hostile.

Will she learn why she is not considered ready for a solo mission yet?
Or will the Empire and the lure of the darkside prove too much?
