Summary
When you are six years old, you learn the names of the your household gods.
"They have protected thy father's family, and thy father's father's family, and one day they will protect thine."
You do not ask about the gods who protected your mother's family. You wash your hands and face dutifully at the shrine, and you do not—cannot—put to words how your skin crawls to think of your own future family: a wife whose face you cannot imagine, children who will be yours and never hers.

Summary
Arlu's situation was what her father would have called delicate. She had willingly taken the oaths of a novice, binding herself to the Athmaz'are until she either completed her education or was dismissed. She was not yet of age, but at fourteen she was old enough to speak for herself, and her father had given his blessing very enthusiastically—her sister had said he was 'living vicariously'. Arlu belonged to the Athmaz'are until such time as her novitiate was completed; even if, like all novices, she was still technically a member of her father's house, it was not meant to matter.
But her father's house was Drazhada, and if there was one thing Arlu had known since she was a little girl, it was that that made all the difference.
Arlu Drazhin joins the Athmaz'are. It is a dream come true, and a greater challenge than she could have ever expected.

Summary
The agreed upon meeting location was in the far western reaches of the province, where the problems were most dire, which meant it was necessary to travel through what Maia knew very well were some of the most unpleasant parts of the empire.
It was Telimezh who finally proposed a solution.
"Serenity," he said, "our family resides in the township of Calestho. Our home is humble, but it is comfortable, and we are certain our parents would be pleased to host you for a night."
While passing through Thu-Evresar on official business, Maia stays a night with Telimezh's family, and learns more than he ever expected to about his people.

Summary
It all started when the emperor and his sister went to view the eclipse. They had had to remove their mittens to make their way up the ladder, and Cala noticed how His Serenity grimaced against the icy-cold of the metal. There ought to be, he thought to himself, a better way, something that could ensure both comfort and safety.

Summary

Maraiis Drazhar deals with the horrors of bureaucracy, and a very rude clerk.

Summary
By an old Republic law, all members of the Jedi High Council are senators in the Galactic Senate, and can thus be voted in as chancellor. A Senator from a less prominent planet has had enough of Chancellor Palpatine's incompetence and calls for a Vote of No-Confidence and the installation of Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi as Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic.
This one action becomes the catalyst that changes the direction of the galaxy.
or “Obi-Wan’s Life Gets Worse (Though It’s Not As Bad As It Could’ve Been)”.

Summary
It is not so very difficult to lay an emperor low. They all see that now. All one needs is an empty room, a span of less than five minutes, and a boot.
Princess Sheveän decides she cannot rely upon her own household’s armsmen to assist with ousting the emperor, opting instead to bring in outside help. Maia reaps the consequences.
