Reychel of Jakku takes a break from her own High Republic Podcast, The Sacred Texts, to talk about issues 6 and 7 of Marvel's Star Wars The High Republic!

Keev Trennis has made contact with The Great Progenetor, Sskeer is still not doing great, and there's a spooky pale ghost lady haunting her dreams! Is it an omen? Or is it just Orla Jareni?

We talk the force, and mentorship, and how the ripples of these events might impact stories clear through to the fall of the Jedi!

Would you look at that! A new Starlight Archive episode is here and we're chatting with Archive Master Kev from The Jedi Archive! Today we're talking about The High Republic wave 2 of phase 1 first comic issues, The High Republic Aventures issues 6 and 7. Spoiler warning, we're jumping straight into the issues and we aren't holding back!

We go through the plot, the implications of the plot, all the little details about what happens in this delightful set of comics. Will the crew of The Vessel be able to help the jedi maintain their uneasy alliance with The Hutts? What are the implications of such an alliance? Why is Geode the absolute best character in The High Republic?

All this and more! Today on The Starlight Archive!

Wave two of Phase one kicks off with a pair of short stories from Star Wars Insider Magazine! In this episode we discuss the plot of the story as well as the beginnings of Wave two!

Starlight Stories, a collection of short stories all take place around Velko Jahen and Ghal Tarpfen and their work in the day-to-day life of Starlight Beacon. A science convention is on its way and we think you may need to remember some things before you dive into these stories. These short stories may seem like filler to some, but they actually have some integral information about characters from other books and just do an all around great job enriching the overall story of Star Wars: The High Republic.

Join us as we explore how these stories contribute to the greater THR saga, introduce new characters and expand on beloved ones, all while avoiding spoilers so that you will still get to enjoy the story fresh!

Tune into our next episode when we go over the events of this story in detail in our spoiler-packed review!
